Stephens County Schools Do Well On CCRPI

The Georgia Department of Education released the initial CCRPI results this week and Stephens County schools came in above the state averages for the first edition of its new College and Career Ready Performance Index.  According to Stephens County School Superintendent Sherrie Whiten, the CCRPI replaces Adequate Yearly Progress as the state’s mechanism for measuring achievement in schools and school systems.  Whiten said that she is very proud of the schools’ performance.  “Overall, we are just really pleased with this index,” said Whiten. “I feel like the scores really reflect our work and the things that our teachers are doing. They have done an outstanding job. Not only does this reflect the good work we are doing, but it also helps us to identify some of the areas we need to work on and we can build those areas into our school improvement plans.”  In addition, all six schools were named Reward Schools by the Georgia Department of Education for High Performance and or High Progress on the CCRPI.
