Fulton School Officials Update on Focus, LAP Plans
The Fulton City School District has been named a focus district for the 2016-2017 school year, with specific focus on G. Ray Bodley High School as a focus school, as well as two elementary schools in LAP status, Fairgrieve and Volney. Each of these distinctions require the schools to follow state protocol and come up with appropriate plans to combat the problem areas in the effected subgroups. Executive director of instruction and assessment, Elizabeth Conners updated the board of education on these plans at the first summer (July 12) board meeting. “This doesn’t mean we’re bad,” said Conners. “It means we have some structures and systems that we need to come back to and tighten up to ensure all students in the Fulton City School District are learning.”
