ALSDE says the schools were identified using a variety of data collected before the pandemic. These schools have consistently had low performance in math, reading and language arts according to state assessments from 2018 until now.
Progress updates are scheduled for this month, February 2023 and April 2023. The ALSDE will provide an annual report to present to lawmakers, the governor, the local school superintendent and the principal at each school. “We don’t expect for anything to change overnight,” State School Supt. Eric Mackey said in a statement. “At a minimum, it will take two or three years for any realistic attempt to bridge the learning loss gap and turn around chronically underperforming schools,” he said.
