I got the foundations of my education when I began teaching some of teachers that were there when I attended elementary were there and they were coming in on retirement. And it was it was really great to see that full circle and to go into education, something that meant a lot to me. It also means a lot to. Help some of the kids to strive to reach academic goals that grew up in the community that I grew up in and to help them to meet and exceed expectations that maybe sometimes they do not see around them and their communities. So it means a lot to be able to work in the community that I grew up in and that I got out as well and to put that and instill those goals and those expectations within. >> And now it's a I'm proud to introduce graduate of Lincoln Memorial High School class of 1965 here.

The board again, I say thank you this, Ana. Make them more high school where MISTER Tillman. And I first really got to know each other in 1959. Was And opportunity for us to really. Understand the transformation from him elementary school, too. Higher learning facility. Top. Many subjects and you talk well, I happen to be in hits John Petrey class. And I want to tell you. I didn't think I would accomplish very much, but because of his teaching technique. He knew how reach every one of us. At one of the level we were. Whether you didn't have a high gpa, but they had a load up. Let me give an example. For instance, I had a classmate named Paula Jackson. And Paul was a nut and he had a group called the nickel in the 5 and they saying at assemblies and throughout the county. He tax himself some time to be a little bit sleepy in the MR. Tillman and his humorous way knew how to reach Paul and others like him. He say Paul. >> And the same Paul, It's a pall Hall says he said Paul, you flocking Blood JUNE coming soon. >> But not only the apology, accidents and others. He knew just what buttons to push. Reach us. And I'm grateful for that. He was a man of high character and integrity. He was always the judge them. When we at his home, not only that make more high school, but actual home on Second Avenue. He introduced me and others. 2 things we never knew about. I didn't understand. But the Pittsburgh, Corey, you meant. It was a newspaper team and I neighborhood every month and he was sit down and read to us. And then I discovered that this man could play the piano and sing a little bit too. And he was special. He was again, humorous. It's most sales was here see more. Tell you what you said to him. One day he said see mall. He said, you know why you MAY see more use You say because you see more than anybody yeah. That was meant to Tim's way. And then one of his other close to me, he said Johnson, do you know? But until men and women, boys and girls, you don't know where you all your selfies, send them to simply support your time and no place in no time. Some some place all the time. Things like that inspired us to hide The students that he help get where they need to get to. When Manatee Junior College was first integrated by mob into a coffee, all sex and junior and James Hamilton. It was MISTER Tillman who inspired and helped them through that journey when her. But Shannon was the first black to graduate from Manatee Junior College, MR. Tillman was it to inspire and to encourage him. And I want to say thank you again for this opportunity that many other things that could see about this great man. And I'd love to. But I know time does not permit. How much time do I have? By the way, >> nonetheless, on the Katy. And that's what you got to have human this light. That the sum it up for MISTER Tillman, 4 words that I you love to use. He's a the stands for huge respect for. He expected you to be respectful because he was respectful. He had the right attitude, no matter how bad things might seen. The project says the movie Johnson's whomever he met along the way. He always had a positive ad, too, and trying to encourage us to do better. He took the responsibility of being an educator very seriously, very seriously remember the day that he came over the intercom system and announced that PRESIDENT John Fitzgerald Kennedy was killed. I was in Missus, McCray's class that that. What a man, what a man and last but not least the effect education, MR. Tillman, dignified. Cabinet. He had charisma. And although adjectives but more than this with this education. He knew who was, who the child of GOD and that kind of legacy. So don't tell the story Trojans about this great man. Tell the story about other blacks that have done and contribute much to society. That's some books won't reveal because GOD loves us all no matter what I stand citizen live. GOD bless you. GOD keep you and thank you for this opportunity committee. With your permission, MISTER Chair. We'd like to invite people from Lincoln here to come down and be in the photo with the school board. >> And of course, man. The here preview. It >> It can't just stand here.

And our Director of Assessment, Accountability Research, Mrna McCarthy is with me again today to talk to you about our. Fast progress monitoring to la results you'll see some of the same slides are similar slides the last presentation since we're presenting this one at a board meeting, but please feel free to stop us throughout the presentation with any questions or comments. You have MR. Jensen, I'm sorry, Drs give anything to. To this up. I'm sure it can be That's right. CHAIRMAN. Again, we're pleased to >> Presenting the pm 2 results and it's very transparent approach. There's good news in here and there's things for us to work on. We're excited to tackle it. Thank you. Thanks. >> Good morning. Chair board superintendent. So this lies just just a matter of the slide. This is our currently or second testing window of the year. Our winter testing window out of 3 that we do fall winter and spring. Just like math. We use 2 different testing platforms for Elaine's. Well, there's that Renaissance platform that covers kindergarten through second grade. And then there's that can assessment platform that's used for 3rd great all the way through 10th grade for in this league was arts in reading. Yes. So this will be the as we have. This related bring you to the next will be coming up for delay. It's literally going to be the first weeks >> and unique about the reading assessment, particularly in k through 2 board members is that there's actually 2 different assessments within the reading piece for k through 2 Ucs start early literacy arrested. That's what our kindergarten students start on. And then when they obtain a certain score on early literacy, then they switched to the star reading assessment. That's what they take in first and second grade, primarily in preparation for fast and 3rd and beyond. When we get to the slides, looking at data will be a little messy when it comes to state comparison data because in manatee we have all of our first graders using this star reading assessment from pm one pm to 02:00pm 3 because that's what they have to take at the end of their first grade year. And so we want them to have experience at that assessment multiple times throughout the year. But other districts in the state actually start all or some of their first graders on the early literacy exam, which tests more foundational skills. And it's not necessarily apples to apples comparison in first grade, but there is switch over First great assessments essentially depending okay in first grade assessments depending on how a student performs on that early literacy. Question yes >> so you're saying some districts use a different platform for the testing. >> These the same platform. So it's still the Renaissance start platform to assessments within it. There's the early literacy and that's what our kindergartners start off on. Okay. But once they perform well enough on early literacy, it switches them into star. We switch them into this car reading test and we do that across the state. All districts do but districts very and basically when they switch students into the star reading test. And so Weast Weast we start all students and start reading at the beginning of first grade but not not districts to. Thank >> And just a reminder of computer adaptive testing appeared at the testing. As the names kind of lies adapts to the student as they go along. So the student and here's a question correctly. They get a harder question and it starts moving. That estimated score up. But that's something the student a little bit higher form cancer. From the start, shifting things down, getting the easier question. As it rises, slowly centering on where the student actually is. It happened once again with computer data question testing, if a student misses the first couple questions, they can really dig themselves down into a hole on that test where you're down really low low value, easier questions. Thanks a lot. Harder to kind get that score back up by the end of the test. Another thing we always want to remind now parents and everybody about is the state family portal. Manatee County, the easiest way to access this is to go through focus parent portal like so I log in look at my daughters. And focus portal. Right in the middle of the screen. There'll be a Florida assessments. Picture can click right on it takes you right to the state portal. It's really nice. Easily accessible for parents. There. And then once you get into the family portal, it's also really nice because give you both the states report results of lets overall score level that usually like reporting categories for something that will give you very specifics like what is there sentence comprehension that paragraph comprehension at things like that that We can actually help understand what this court means as a pair. Real quick, this when you 2 weeks ago, when you all did the the math data presentation, The adaptive. Scoring, so-called could go back one slide. So, folks, yeah, this next storm after it was fascinating for me, especially after having been in this business for a while. The information present, because it was pretty new to me. >> And so when you brought up that in the math. Scores and correct me, probably get a detail wrong here. So help me out. But you look when you are looking into the question, the data and then the questions a# # you felt was the 3rd grade test. Yeah. That's a actions or grade math was a of 3rd grade math and for folks who are interested in this, I really strongly suggest you go back and here that workshop as well because thought it was really not only really well done, but it was really interesting. Presented so if and when you get an answer from the state on the question of why did 98% of our 3rd graders fractions question that is probably a higher level question for a 3rd grader. I'm really anxious to hear what response we get back in the state but just this. This concept in general and Evan, you said just want to because to me, it's it's so important that. A student gets a question wrong begins to drop the difficulty level of the subsequent questions and the difficulty with which that student has to get back to proficiency at 3, for example. I just want to highlight that point because not sure a lot of people I know that that testing means, but they MAY not understand fully how escort such want to take a second folks. We only have a partial response from the state so far, which is that there weren't enough fraction questions originally when released that that test started fast as they put the weight on them. Originally. That now that they have more questions is. Impacting things that they were expecting. Okay. So it's a little more reliable or it sounds changing that for the spring. Gotcha. A veteran of thank
