Lakeside Making Exceptional Gains in Elementary Literacy!
Lakeside has seen dramatic improvement in our students' whole literacy scores in our second year of utilizing a new reading and writing curriculum designed to meet the rigorous National Common Core Standards in elementary.
92% of returning students in grades 1 to 5 are on grade level or have advanced up to one year above grade level compared to 81% the previous year.
Over 60% of students who were up to a year behind grade level last year improved 2 years in proficiency, scoring 1 year ahead of grade level this year!
80% of students new to LCS this year in grades K to 2nd scored on grade level or up to a year above grade level! Grades K to 2 are the critical years for the creation of excellent foundational reading skills that carry students through the rest of their schooling.
Congratulations to our hard-working students, and thanks go out to Mrs. Pacheco’s group for learning to use diagnostic data to impact their weekly instruction.
