Richmond Hill Middle School (RHMS) was recently named a winner in the 2009 Single Statewide Accountability System (SSAS) awards by the Governor’s Office of Student Achievement based on the Spring 2009 CRCT scores.
RHMS earned the platinum award for making greatest gains in student achievement, one of only nine of the 429 middle schools in the state to receive this award.
To qualify for this award schools must have made Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for three consecutive years, demonstrate that at least 35% of students exceed standards in all test areas as measured by the state assessments, and place in the 98th percentile or higher statewide in greatest student achievement gains.
The principals, teachers, and parents work collaboratively with students to earn such a level of success.
Since the inception in 2005 for recognizing schools for their achievement, RHMS has received three awards, earning the silver award in 2005 and the platinum award in 2008 and 2009.
And Richmond Hill High School was also recognized by the Governor’s Office of Student Achievement as a winner in the 2009 Single Statewide Accountability System (SSAS) awards. RHHS received a bronze award for highest performance. Richmond Hill High demonstrated that at least 20% or more of its students exceeded standards in all test areas and 95% or more met or exceeded standards.
