Recent Cave Creek Unified News You May Have Missed

 

The Sonoran News puts the Arizona Republic to shame on its coverage of Friedman v. Cave Creek Unified.  Sonoran News here.  Arizona Republic here.

Coverage in the Arizona Republic of the Cave Creek administration complaining about the new state A-F ratings.  Ms. Miller says they don’t know the rules of ‘how to play the game’.  Here is an idea.  Stop playing the game and focus on a higher standard. You don’t answer to the state, your responsibility is to our students. Setting high expectations in everything that you do would be a good start instead of kowtowing to the state and the feds.   Article here.

The Sonoran News has an article about new lawsuits against the district.  The article implies that the district, its insurance carrier, and its lawyer stonewalled a person injured in a batting cage so their lawsuit would be denied.  The parents of a child who broke her leg at the BMES Fall festival are suing the district and the company who provided an inflatable slide. CCUSD facing more lawsuits.

According to the Arizona Republic, Cactus Shadow is increasing grade checks so those failing students can earn back their eligibility quicker.  Nice to see more administrators make athletics the priority.

‎‎You can see the district’s full 2011 AIMS and Stanford 10 scores in the 8/9 governing board presentation. No part of the presentation says how they will improve those scores.
