Edward Reed High School's 2023-2024 School Performance Plan focuses on two primary goals: enhancing student success and strengthening partnerships with students, staff, and families. Key objectives include increasing the average ACT composite score from 16.7 to 17.9, equivalent to the state average, and reducing the chronic absenteeism rate to below 15%. The plan outlines strategies such as ACT test preparation, utilization of Business Intelligence Gateway (BIG) Absenteeism Reports, and providing comprehensive resources for parents and families to support student achievement and engagement. This effort aligns with the WCSD promise to recognize individual student needs and strengths.

This School Performance Plan outlines two primary goals: enhancing student success and strengthening student, staff, and family partnerships. The student success goal aims to reduce chronic absenteeism and tardies, increase student engagement, and improve 9th and 10th-grade core credit attainment. The partnership goal focuses on increasing positive parental contact, improving input on the School Climate Survey, and significantly boosting family participation in surveys. These objectives align with the WCSD promise to support every student to graduate prepared for their future, in collaboration with families and the community.

This School Performance Plan aims to improve student relationships and respect, as well as enhance belonging and support for students. Key strategies include creating a diverse student voice group, fostering relationship building and Social Emotional Learning (SEL) activities in Advisory, and assigning a consistent Advisor to each student throughout their high school tenure. The plan intends to achieve these goals through monitoring student climate surveys, advisory data, and weekly attendance, ultimately improving climate data metrics related to adult support, adult respect, and student respect.
