The Indian River County School District received an A grade for the fourth straight year, with all but one school in the district earning an A rating. Dodgertown Elementary School was the only school to receive a B rating.
District Superintendent Dr. David Moore said parents can expect a quality education no matter which school they choose in Indian River County. The district maintains its A grade by investing in teachers and staff who have helped improve the district over the past six years. School leaders identify pain points and allocate resources and funding to address those issues and prevent the district from falling in the ratings.
Moore said those efforts are reflected in the number of parents choosing to keep their children in the public school system. The district exceeded the state's projected enrollment for the community for the second straight year due to its willingness to transform the student experience over the last six years.
The School District of Indian River County is ranked in nine out of 12 accountability components. The district says that demonstrates exceptional performance in educating students from the time they begin their education through graduation day.
