Students in this school are free from bullying.

• Conclusions from our Data • Crestwood’s student achievement as measured by the state standardized

test scores (WKCE) in reading, math, science, and social studies have historically been high and they remain so.

• When compared to other Wisconsin schools with similar demographics Crestwood students rank among the highest on the WKCE in reading.

• There is a significant achievement gap as measured by the WKCE between our white students and our students of color.

• The number of minority students, particularly African- American students at our school has increased significantly over the past few years.

• Our school’s suspension rate is significantly lower than the district average. • Our school’s attendance rate among African- American is lower than the

average for the district.• Our school’s poverty rate has risen fairly dramatically over the past few

years.

Goal #1:

Consistent and systematic collaboration among staff will improve our academic program and raise the percentage of minority students who are proficient in reading, language arts, and math by 3% at the end of 2 years.
