Team chair Linda Kaiser, who is school consultant for the St. Cloud Diocese, praised the staff for their honesty in the self evaluation. Now you need to move forward with it. Kaiser cited three strengths she and her team saw in the district. First, you have a strong, caring and dedicated teachers and staff, who care about what happens to the students. Second, you have partnership with parents.
Parents feel engaged with the school, and students feel like part of a family.
Among the challenges are improving the school system's curriculum. Kaiser also said the school has some technology issues to deal with to help prepare students better for their futures in education and work. But Kaiser lauded the teachers for what they are accomplishing already, as evidenced by the 8th Grade Basic Skills Test results, and the focus the teachers have on individual students, helping them achieve their best potential.
