Recognition, Intervention, & Adjustments
 
District Level
 
Recognize students for effort, character, and citizenship in addition to academics
 

High performing schools not only honor academic achievement, but also recognize effort and character. The focus is on developing good citizens who show caring for others and their community in addition to high academic performance.

On Target
 
Missing the Mark
 
Focus is on high expectations for all, rather than than recognition for few
 
Little recognition of non-academic achievements
 
Rewards honor effort as well as performance
 
Little recognition of effort
 

In Mount Vernon City School District, the superintendent recognizes school and classroom efforts in the Superintendent Report, based on reports submitted by school principals.
