State School Superintendent Richard Woods named Lyman Hall Elementary and Frank Long Elementary Title I Reward Schools in the “High-Progress” category.

Title I High-Progress Schools are among the top 10 percent of the state’s Title I schools making the most progress in improving the performance of the “all students” group over three years on the statewide assessments. Reward Schools will serve as models for schools with similar demographics across the state.

“As we continue to personalize learning for all students in our state, schools like these make me confident we will reach our goal of expanding educational opportunities for all students in Georgia,” State School Superintendent Richard Woods said. “Thank you to the staff of these schools for all of the hard work, long hours and teachable moments.”

“I am very appreciative of the work the administration, teachers and staff have done to improve student learning and achievement at Lyman Hall and Frank Long,” Liberty County School Superintendent Dr. Franklin Perry said. “I am especially proud of the students who continue to make gains specific to meeting and exceeding expectations.”
