School district to release report card

A monthly School District report card will soon be available to the Iowa City community.

After the district received an infrastructure audit by the Synesi engineering company in January, the School Board requested a timeline of when certain items would be accomplished. 

Superintendent Steve Murley and the district created a public document that indicates accomplishment of the previous year, as well as goals for the upcoming years. 

Some of the previous accomplishments topics included in the informational piece were construction, facilities, technology, and district administration leadership and management. 

The February report card will be posted on the School District website at the end of the month as an insert of the district brochure. The district also plans to present the information monthly to the community. 

Many board members said they believe the report card will be an easy way to communicate. 

"I do think this is going to be a really easy way for everyone to see the progress being done every month," said board President Marla Swesey.

District officials will provide an update each month to both the board and the community for the duration of the goals set in the report card.
