Background:
Based on the Board's action, the 2024-2025 monthly Regional Showcase item provides a thorough picture of each region, including goals and progress in attaining them. In addition, strategies that are being successfully implemented within the region and that may be replicated, will be included. The High School Region comprises 26 schools and one specialty site, including Montessori, Immersion, International Baccalaureate, Bilingual, Career and Technical Education, Community and Alternative schools. The High School Region serves 20,000 students year to date (YTD) in diverse settings to meet the varied needs of our students. The High School Region includes the following schools: Alliance, Audubon, Bay View, Bradley Tech, Green Tree, Groppi, Hamilton, MacDowell, Madison, Marshall, Golda Meir, Milwaukee Virtual Program, High School of the Arts, Milwaukee County Youth Education Center, School of Languages, North, Obama, Project Stay, Pulaski, Reagan, Riverside, Rufus King, South Division, Transition, Vincent, Washington, and Wisconsin Conservatory of Lifelong Learning. This month, the High School Region features schools participating in GRIP (Graduation Rate Improvement Planning) in a partnership with DPI. Our presentation will highlight the goals and strategies implemented at the 10 GRIP schools focusing on 9th grade success for our students with special education needs. In the second year of implementation, we are seeing early successes and making adjustments to promote on-time graduation for the identified cohorts of students at each school.
