Despite increases, AYP still out of reach for Dist. 111

Minooka High School improves scores, remains above state averages

MINOOKA — Despite student increases in all areas of the Prairie State Achievement Exam (PSAE), Minooka Community High School did not make AYP as defined by the federal No Child Left Behind Act.

Schools are required to have 85 percent of students who take the exam as juniors reach Adequate Yearly Progress in the curriculum areas of math and reading this year. In math, 67.9 percent of Minooka students made AYP, and in reading 64.1 percent made the grade.

I'm in favor of anything that will help improve school finances
I will support it if it helps to lower my property taxes
I oppose it because I don't believe it will impact property taxes and I will just pay twice
I'm against any additional taxes
I have not heard enough yet to form an opinion
