What should Huntley 158′s school board do about test scores? Some candidates pitch using new metrics to assess students
Falling test scores, along with the overall educational climate within schools, are items school board candidates running for Huntley School District 158 said they hope to tackle if elected.
In attendance were incumbents Melissa Maiorino, Jonathan Dailey and Kevin Gentry and challengers Kate Policheri, Stephen Buchs, Andrew Bittman, Paula Yensen, Michael Thompson and Andrew Fekete. Huntley District 158 exceeded state averages in math, science and language arts proficiency, as well as in its SAT and Illinois Assessment of Readiness scores, according to its Illinois Report Card data released this past fall.
Buchs, who has worked in education, said the district needed to communicate better with the public about how test scores and other academic data have changed to better know what needs to be corrected.The district's teacher retention rate is 89%, down from a high of 91% in 2020, according to state report card data.
Policheri also said the pandemic led to learning loss and mental health struggles, adding that it created division among parents, teachers and the board. She agreed that the district needed to find new ways to assess students, adding that"not all kids are test-takers."Bittman noted that test scores have been dropping since before COVID-19.
Reviewing assessment tools and turning to teachers as a resource to identify solutions are things she said she thinks could help as well.
