BCSC ISTEP+ RESULTS TOPS IN THE STATE
|
Brownsburg Community School Corporation is number one in the state in the percentage of students passing ISTEP+ mathematics, English/language arts and both portions of the assessment. We recognize that ISTEP+ is just one indicator of our students' academic performance. Classroom assessments and other external measures all yield the same results - our students perform at the highest levels in the state and achieve great things in the classroom every day. All of this is a tribute to our entire staff who touch the lives of our students each day from the bus to the classroom to the learning lab to the cafeteria and all places in between. We recognize that if our students learned in environments that were only focused on test scores but did not care for each other, we would have missed the mark. In Brownsburg we believe and practice that caring relationships are as important as achievement on any test, and prove it is possible to have relationships and results.
