Santa Rosa Schools do well again

The Florida Department of Education released school grades for school year 2011-12 yesterday. In a press release, the Santa Rosa District School District celebrated that its schools remain at the top of the state in performance. In spite of  increased parameters, all of SRC schools remain a “C” or better.

“I am extremely proud of the success of our students, “said Superintendent Tim Wyrosdick. “The excellent performance of our kids on a much more difficult test is a quality indicator of the excellent teaching taking place in our classrooms. I congratulate a teaching corps that is second to none!”

The superintendent said that while some schools moved from A’s to B’s that he was it has an opportunity to grow. “We will evaluate the needs of these schools,” said Wurosdick, “and make adjustments to move them back to an ‘A.’”

School Board Hugh Winkles concurred. “With this being the first year of a more challenging test and the overall bar for student proficiency and achievement set higher,” said Winkles. “I am very pleased with our scores and grades. Even though we are pleased with the current performance increasing these scores is important; we will not accept anything less than the best in the Santa Rosa school system.”
