My bad. 6.8% of A-A students met the goals. Lots of challenges listed by school but only ONE initiative listed!
Key challenges at Fitzgerald High School supported by the data in the AER report are:
Only 15.69 % of Students with Disabilities and 18.18% of ELL students met the

0% of ELL students met the growth target in Math, or reached proficiency.
6.83% of African American students met the Math growth target.
32% of students are proficient in ELA compared to a 46% proficiency level
statewide.
11% of students are proficient in MATH compared to a 35% proficiency level
statewide.
Key initiatives being undertaken in the school to accelerate student achievement and
