Bronze medal schools honored in the report met these criteria: • All students performed better than statistically expected for the average student in the state. • The school’s least-advantaged students (minority, low-income, etc.) performed better than average for similar students in the state. “We believe it is the personal attention in our small learning community that lets our kids achieve at higher rates that district and state averages,” said Todd Bartholomay, Open School principal. “We’re proud of how hard we have worked and continue to work together – students, teachers and families – to help all of our students flourish at Open School.” Silver and Gold level schools also met criteria where a critical mass of students had access to college-level courses through Advanced Placement or International classes.
