Independence schools score 4.5 out of five on report card

Independence schools score 4.5 out of five on report card

INDEPENDENCE, Ohio – Students in Independence are receiving a top-level education with the publication of the state report card.

The school district scored 4.5 out of a maximum five stars in the recently released Ohio School Report Cards and Independence scored top marks in many areas.

Superintendent Kelli Cogan said: “The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce assessment showcases the district’s strengths across multiple areas, with Independence achieving top ratings in several key components. While this report card offers valuable insights, it only represents a portion of the district’s comprehensive educational approach.”

The district scored the maximum five stars in areas including achievement in Ohio state tests and end of course exams, gap closing for how well the schools are meeting expectations in English language, arts, and math, early years literacy and graduation.

Its only non-top rating was for progress, where the school district scored three stars. Cogan said the progress component measures the academic performance of students compared to expected growth on Ohio’s State Tests and End of Course Exams. She said: “The district is reviewing its PreK-12 curriculum this school year and will align it to address any gaps.”

College, career, workforce, and military readiness was not rated on this year’s score card.

Cogan said: “The district’s success extends beyond these metrics, as evidenced by the upcoming Quality Profile. This in-depth report, to be featured in the fall issue of the Independence Quarterly newsletter, will provide a comprehensive overview of the district’s achievements, innovative programs, and student successes.”

“Residents can expect to receive this detailed snapshot of Independence Local Schools’ daily operations and accomplishments in their mailboxes this October.”

She added she encourages the community to review both the state report card and the Quality Profile for a full picture of the district’s commitment to nurturing well-rounded, future-ready students.
