Our Achievements:
Conecuh County Jr. High School has made adequate improvement on the ACAP but dropped in Spring 2024. Within our Continuous Improvement Plan, we set goals for Math in which we were successful in accomplishing 67% of them. The other 33% of the goals not met will be an improvement we will work toward accomplishing. Additionally in Reading, we set goals in which we were successful in accomplishing 44% of them. The other 56% of the goals not met will be an improvement we will work toward achieving. We have set new goals for the ACAP and will continue to compare that data as the years progress. We also discussed working toward perfecting what we are doing when it comes to Parental Involvement. We discussed parental involvement activities that are working and decided to offer more during the 24-25 school year.
