With the release of the latest TNReady data, BCS was recognized as one of the top districts to significantly improve student performance and narrow achievement gaps under the State’s accountability system. We are also pleased to announce that Altruria Elementary School has been awarded Reward School status, placing them in the top 5 percent of schools in the state for performance. Superintendent Dr. David Stephens shared, “Being an Exemplary district and having a Reward School is a compliment to the dedicated work that our students, teachers, staff, and parents do each day. We are extremely proud of all their efforts.”
