🎉 Celebrating Growth for Our Students With Disabilities! 🎉
Amid the strong LEAP performance across West Baton Rouge, we are especially proud to recognize the success of our students with disabilities.

In grades 3–8, the percentage of students scoring Mastery or above grew from 9% to 14% — a 5-point increase! When including high school results, our growth continues with a rise from 9% to 11% system-wide.

This progress reflects the dedication of our students, teachers, and support staff. Every gain is a step toward greater equity and achievement for all learners. 💪📚✨
