Lincoln Named as Illinois Academic Excellence School
The Illinois School Board of Education (ISBE) has announced that four schools in DeKalb Community Unit District 428 have qualified for state recognition, based on student achievement at the schools over the past three years. Chesebro and Littlejohn Elementary Schools have been named Spotlight Schools, Huntley Middle School has been named as an Academic Improvement School, and Lincoln Elementary School has joined a select group of schools as an Academic Excellence School.
The 129 Illinois schools (elementary, middle and high schools) winning the Academic Excellence Award have sustained very high performance levels on state assessment test for at least three years. For elementary schools, at least 90% of the students met or exceeded state standards in both reading and mathematics for at least three consecutive years.
“I am so excited for our Lincoln Elementary School students, staff and families”, said Cristy Meyer, principal of Lincoln Elementary School. “This recognition certainly reflects our theme, "T.E.A.M. Lincoln: Together Everyone Achieves More!"
“This type of comprehensive improvement and the resulting recognition, does not happen by accident”, according to Superintendent of Schools, Paul Beilfuss. “A prolonged, consistent, and collaborative relationship among our classroom teachers, other professional and classified staff, working together over a period of years with district administrators in partnership with parents, guardians, families, and the community, brings about positive results. We will strive for continued academic excellence as we work to attain additional capacity for the growth occurring in our district”.
