|
|
|
Description:
The Crestwood School District received the following letter from John Bebow, President and CEO of The Center for Michigan in acknowledgement of the district's recognition as an Academic State Champion.
Dear Educator, Congratulations! Your school district or charter school is one of 54 across the state of Michigan to be honored as "Academic State Champs" for 2013 by The Center for Michigan and Bridge Magazine. These recognitions, based on three years of standardized test scores, were made based upon a database created to review school academic performance, as judged against socioeconomic status. The academic measures, all drawn from official state figures were: ~MEAP exams in the fourth and eighth grades administered in the 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2012-13 school years. ~MME exams in the 11th grade administered in the 2010-11, 2011-12 and 2012-13 school years. ~ACT results for spring 2011, 2012 and 2013. In conjunction with the Lansing research firm of Public Sector Consultants, Bridge took these academic measures and the percentage of students eligible for free and reduced lunch to establish a calculation that identifies how well school districts and charters are aiding students achieve, compared to districts and charters with similar student economic attributes. Bridge ranked 540 school districts and charter schools statewide, and recognized the top 10 percent as Academic State Champs. For complete coverage of these awards, please visit www.bridgemi.com. And please accept the enclosed certificate with our thanks for all the hard work you, your faculty and your students put into this performance. Respectfully yours, John Bebow |
