To the Honorable, the Legislature:
This annual report on the status of the Preschool to Grade 5 Program is submitted to the Joint Committee on Finance and the chief clerk of each house of the Legislature as required under §
115.45 (6)(b) and
(c), Wis. Stats.
During the 2001-02 school year, 38 elementary schools from four districts participated in the program. This included 20 schools in Milwaukee, seven schools in Kenosha, six schools in Racine, and five schools in Beloit. Grants are awarded for three-year periods. Per §
115.45 (10), Wis. Stats., a grant may not be renewed unless the state superintendent determines the project met its objectives. Seven of the 38 schools completed their three-year cycle (1999-00, 2000-01, 2001-02) in 2001-02, and this report contains recommendations for continued funding for all of these schools. This was the second year of the three-year cycle for seven schools and the first year for 24 schools.
A98
Specific testing is required under §
115.45 (4)(b), Wis. Stats., annually in each school. This report reviews the performance of the schools on these tests. In addition, it discusses other program elements, including attendance, staff development, parent involvement, and mobility reduction efforts implemented in the P-5 districts, and a report of funding the districts received in 2002-03 pending completion of the 2003-04 grants. The evaluation report from each P-5 district is enclosed.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Burmaster
State Superintendent
Referred to committee on Education.
