Revised Crystal River Primary School Grade to an “A”

Today we learned from the Florida Department of Education that due to an error by DOE’s in calculating learning gains, Crystal River Primary School Grade has been recalculated from a “B” to an “A” School!! Congrats CRP!!

This means that for the 2011-2012 school year, during a year filled with new standards, new rules and new test formats, Citrus County Public School Students scored and measured well. Fourteen out of fifteen elementary and middle schools received an “A” and one received a high “B”. I am so very proud of each school’s achievement!

“Stuff the Bus” Events This Summer

Posted on July 21st, 2012 by Thomas Kennedy

“Stuff the Bus” Events This Summer

The Citrus County School District is preparing for the annual Stuff the Bus back-to-school drive.

Stuff the Bus is a school supply drive that assists parents and teachers in Citrus County who find their students without basic school supplies due to economic hardship.

By providing these children with the things that every child needs to start school, we can drastically change their future for the good. Children who have what they need and feel good about themselves do much better in school that those who don’t. Also, providing these necessary school supplies will allow teachers to focus on teaching the first few days of school rather than trying to help the students find the basic school supplies. Stuff the Bus also helps teachers!

July 28 the bus will be at the K-Mart in Crystal River and Wal-Mart in Inverness, from 10am to Noon.

Aug. 4th the bus will be at Wal-Mart in Homosassa and Publix in Beverly Hills (486) 10am to Noon.

Thank you to all of our generous community members and partners who helped us in our endeavor in past years!

Citrus Schools’ Grades – REVISED

Posted on July 11th, 2012 by Thomas Kennedy

Citrus Schools’ Grades – REVISED

Today, the Florida Department of Education released school grades for elementary and middle schools in Florida. (High School grades will not be released by Florida DOE until January 2013.) As a district we can be just as nervous as a student waiting and worrying about getting their test results. The results are amazing!

During a year filled with new standards, new rules and new test formats, Citrus County Public School Students scored and measured well. Fourteen out of fifteen elementary and middle schools received an “A” and only one received a “B”. I am so very proud of each school’s achievement!
