The AER addresses the complex reporting information required by federal and state laws. The school’s report contains information about student assessment, accountability, and teacher quality. If you have any questions about the AER, please contact Chad Daniels for assistance.  \nThe AER is available for you to review electronically by visiting the following web site [https://goo.gl/LD2FzX](https://goo.gl/LD2FzX), or you may review a copy in the main office at your child’s school.  \nFor the 2016-17 school year, schools were identified using new definitions and labels as required in the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) . A Targeted Support and Improvement (TSI) school is one that has at least one underperforming student subgroup. An Additional Targeted Support (ATS) school is one that has three or more underperforming student subgroups. A Comprehensive Support and Improvement (CSI) school is one whose performance is in the lowest 5% of all schools in the state. Some schools are not identified with any of these labels. In these cases, no label is given.  \nOur school was identified as not being given a label.  \nOne of the key challenges facing schools is the availability of consistent, timely and reliable data to help chart student growth. Currently there is a change over to MSTEP and SAT testing which is still in its infancy. Until we have 3 or more years of this data to compare, it is difficult to get a gauge of where you are at. However, in the meantime, we are focusing our efforts into utilizing AIMSWEB, Khan Academy as well as a couple of other local assessments to assist in filling in the gaps until that data is available.  \nMISSION STATEMENT  \nAll School personnel will accept the responsibility to provide the opportunity for all students to be productive in a global society.  \nCass City Public Schools  \n4868 North Seeger Street Cass City, MI 48726 Phone: 989-872-2200  \nFax: 989-872-5015  \n[www.casscityschools.org](www.casscityschools.org)  \nLearning from the past.
