Today, State School Superintendent Richard Woods recognized Jackson Road Elementary, Carver Road Middle and Griffin High School as 2023-24 GaDOE Math Leaders for their exceptional achievement or growth in mathematics!
Schools were recognized for achievement or growth in the percentage of students scoring at the Proficient Learner level or above in mathematics. The criteria for the 2023-2024 Math Leader Awards recognize the crucial importance of numeracy skills in fifth and eighth grades and require higher growth from schools with lower achievement levels.
Congratulations to these educators, students and families who worked hard to implement the new K-12 Mathematics. Outstanding job! #MathLeaders
