Academic Performance Data for District 728
The following data is a starting point to understanding academic achievement overall for Minnesota
students and specifically, for ISD 728. 728 United was concerned that while ISD 728 was performing
above the state average, state averages were so poor that school performance above them might lead
one to believe a school’s performance was acceptable , while in reality, a large percentage of students
may still be struggling. Unfortunately , ISD 728 is failing almost a 1/3 of its students in reading and has
been for years . We understand there are many factors that contribute to a child’s performance beyond
what the school can control, but the data demonstrates that testing above the “state average” is not
enough to look at in a system that performs poorly as a whole in determining quality of education
The group chose to focus on reading scores as high reading achievement is the gateway to all other
learning.
