Fulton County interim school superintendent Kenneth Zeff highlighted the district’s five-year strategic plan as part of the school system’s annual State of Our Schools event.
Launched in 2012, the plan is focused on three specific goals: by 2017, 90 percent of Fulton students will graduate on time; 85 percent of Fulton’s seniors will be eligible for admission to a University System of Georgia college or university; and all of Fulton’s graduates will be ready to work after high school.
At the State of Our Schools event on Thursday, Zeff also outlined district strategies for increasing achievement in some poorer-performing schools, such as the creation of Achievement Zone, “an intensive approach for providing academic support to Banneker High School and its feeder schools,” according to a statement from the school district.
Zeff emphasized the district’s focus on personalized learning, which is the way Fulton “uses innovative teaching practices and instructional technology to meet students where they are academically. A hallmark of personalized learning environments is how they are customized to meet students’ individual needs, skills and interests.”
