Reynolds School District Announces Administrative Changes

Effective Tuesday, September 11, 2012, Lisa Darnold will be Principal at Sweetbriar Elementary: and Shane Bassett will be Principal at Davis Elementary. The administrative assignment changes assure that both schools will make significant progress toward raising the achievement for each and every child.

While all schools within Reynolds School District are focused on increasing student achievement, Davis Elementary School was named a Priority School by the Oregon Department of Education’s next generation accountability system.

This rating method places more emphasize on student achievement growth by individual student. The new system also provides additional supports to assist focus and priority schools in raising student achievement. Teams of teachers and administrators from each focus and priority school will be working together to assess performance and implement a strong plan to increase student achievement.

In addition, Jose-de-Jesus Melendez, Assistant Director of English Language Learning has resigned to take a position as the Executive Director for Equity at Bellevue School District.
