Jackson Public School District Maintains ‘C’ Rating on Mississippi Academic Assessment Program
September 17, 2024
The Jackson Public School District, remaining steadfast in its commitment to academic excellence and continuous improvement, maintains a “C” rating on the Mississippi Academic Assessment Program (MAAP).
Science proficiency saw a slight increase of 0.5% and there were notable areas of growth, particularly in 5th grade math (3.6%) 6th grade math (3.8%) and 8th grade math, which experienced the highest proficiency at 5.1%. All of this in a school year with no shortage of challenges and setbacks.
Superintendent Dr. Errick L. Greene emphasizes the district’s dedication to excellence and a growth mindset as we address the challenges systemwide and ensure continued academic progress. “We recognize the areas where growth is needed, and we’ve already implemented new strategies to improve outcomes in these critical areas,” said Dr. Greene.
“We are using these results as a reflection point to make the necessary adjustments and to ensure we are providing the best educational experience for every scholar. We’re investing heavily in our team members and in our learning environments, and we’re determined to maximize every moment for powerful teaching and learning,” Dr. Greene added.
