The
Tennessee Department of Education announced that Murfreesboro City
Schools has received the designation of Exemplary District, the
highest distinction school districts can earn in Tennessee. In
addition, the Department announced that nine Murfreesboro City Schools
have received the designation of Tennessee Reward Schools, the highest
distinction schools can earn in the state.
“The
Exemplary District designation is a direct result of recognizing that
each child has individual talents and gifts that deserve to be nurtured
and celebrated. I am so excited about the work going on here, and I am
thankful to the teachers, administrators, and support staff who enhance
the quality of life of Murfreesboro’s citizens.” says Dr. Linda Gilbert,
Director of Schools.
Murfreesboro
City Reward Schools include: Black Fox, Cason Lane, Discovery, Erma
Siegel, John Pittard, Mitchell-Neilson, Overall Creek, Reeves-Rogers,
and Scales Elementary. TNReady data indicate that these schools are
significantly improving student academic achievement and student growth
for all students and for student groups. Attendance and English
language proficiency are also required measures in the
designation. This year marks the highest number of schools recognized
as Reward Schools in any individual year for Murfreesboro City
Schools.
