News from Mr. V

Dear KHA Community,
 
Happy New Year! I hope you all had a wonderful and restful time off with your families. I know I enjoyed a very successful hibernation period and am ready to go! Please see below for some very exciting news…
 
School Accountability Results ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
 
Each year, RIDE gives an accountability score for each school in the state. As an elementary school, we are assessed in 4 different areas: Achievement, Growth, Chronic Student Absenteeism, and Suspension Rate.  Each school is then given a star rating from 1 to 5 in each of the areas mentioned. The school’s final score is then given based on the star score of the lowest area.  
 
Well, I am extremely happy, proud, delighted, and every other positive word you can think of to say that Kingston Hill Academy is officially a 5 Star School! This is such a testament to the dedicated and hard-working staff here and I am extremely proud to be a part of this successful community 🙂
