Board of Education

 

 

The Fort Recovery School System, with the help of parents, students, and the business community has been going through a continuous improvement plan for approximately thirteen years.  Because of these efforts we have been one of only a handful of schools in the state that have reached the “Effective” and “Excellent” School Status every year on the state report card.

Professional development has played a major role in the successes of the Fort Recovery District.  The Board has committed themselves to remaining current on initiatives that potentially benefit our students.  We have strived to be certain that our classrooms are staffed with teachers that have been exposed to the most current research on successful classroom techniques and procedures.

Our Board has learned the importance of collecting, analyzing, tracking, and using data.  They have learned that our action plans must be driven by data since this information is essential in assessing student achievement. 

Our Board of Education actively engages all of our district’s stakeholders.  The success of our district has truly been a collaborative effort.  We are proud of our Business Advisory Council, District Input Team, and Community Engagement participants.  Because of groups like this we have been able to generate ideas and resources to best serve the needs of our students.
