The Kenai Peninsula Borough School District will be offering it’s quarterly report at tonight’s Kenai Borough Assembly meeting in Chambers at 6pm.
The school district recently received a report card based off of standardized tests taken by the students. Copies of the test results are going to be in parent’s hands soon, and the school board wants them to understand what they mean in context.
Kenai Borough School District Communications Liaison Pegge Erkeneff: “Doesn’t effect course grades, graduation or grade retention, but students do get focused support to improve when we can look at those results.
