District Profile 2000 - 2001
The purpose of the Great Falls Public Schools' Profile is to provide meaningful information that is designed to help the School Board, staff, and public understand and evaluate how well our schools are doing. The ten indicators that have been selected to describe the district's effectiveness are modeled after the State Education Profile Developed by the Montana Office of Public Instruction. Meaningful assessment starts with a base line from which to make comparisons. In some cases, we have compared ourselves with the state and the nation. In other cases, we have compared ourselves from one year to the next. Of the two methods, the latter is probably better as it compares Great Falls students to Great Falls students. I particularly want to thank Lonnie Yingst, Dick Kuntz, Chris Worman-Engren, Denise Conrad, Judy Higgins, Bob Odermann, Judy Snow, and Katie Myers for the time and effort they have spent compiling this data. Thanks also to the Great Falls Public Schools Art Department for the student artwork and the Great Falls Public Schools Print Center. Walking the fine line between what to include and what to leave out of this profile has been a real struggle, but we have begun the process and plan to improve each year. Please call me if you have questions, ideas, or concerns after you have read it. I would be glad to sit down and chat with you.
Sincerely,
Please Note: Some Materials are in PDF format.
