The goal of FCSD1 is to
prepare each student so that at the time of
graduation, the student has the skills and
knowledge necessary to enter college or the
workplace.
As defined in this
context, college readiness is the knowledge and
skills students need to obtain to successfully
complete entry-level college coursework without
the need for remediation.
Whether planning to
attend college or enter the workforce, a new ACT
study indicates that high school students need
to be educated to a comparable level of
readiness in both math and reading. Especially
in today’s economy, these are critical skills
needed to obtain and maintain employment.

School
District 1 • Report 2009
“I
think we need to understand that we
will be—and we absolutely should
be—held accountable for our student
performance. There can be no more
excuses. We have resources other
states can only dream of. It will be
hard work... but I’m confident we
are moving in the right direction.
But we can’t back away from our
ethical and moral responsibility to
educate every single child to a high
level.”
—Paige Fenton Hughes, FCSD1 Supt. |

“Whether it is test scores or
matriculation or dropout rate,
we are in a position where the
only ‘A’ we get on the report
card is for funding. And after
that it drops off, and it drops
off dramatically…”
