Action 37272
Dr. Laura Raeder, Coordinator of High School Instruction, presented a report on the Advanced Placement Program (see MRF #16844 and Action 36713, adopted 9-9-2013), as follows: More Sioux Falls School District high school students are challenging themselves with college-level Advanced Placement (AP) courses and are passing these rigorous exams at a higher rate than their peers across the nation. The AP program is available to any high school student in a variety of content areas. At the conclusion of each course, students have the option of taking an AP exam. A score of three or higher on the exam may earn students college credit. During the 2014-15 school year, enrollment in AP classes increased by 330 students, or 13.8 percent over the previous year. Nearly 46 percent of all juniors and seniors in the District challenge themselves with an AP course and 85 percent AP students took the final exam. A total of 2,313 AP exams were given at a pass rate of 67 percent. Sioux Falls School District students represent 49.1 percent of the total South Dakota AP exams taken. The College Board, a non-profit organization committed to helping students experience college success by taking academically challenging classes in high school, continually recognizes the District and its students for exceptional rigor.
The cost for students to take the exam in 2015 was a $92 fee which can be waived by the College Board and the Department of Education for students with financial need. The District subsidizes the fees for students who have a financial need but do not meet the requirements of the College Board and the State.
Following general discussion, a motion was made by Todd Thoelke and seconded by Douglas C. Morrison, four (4) votes “yes” on roll call, acknowledging the results from the District’s 2015 Advanced Placement Report, as presented.

Action 37273
DeeAnn Konrad, Community Relations Supervisor, presented an update on the District’s Mobile App (see MRF #16845 and Action 36795, adopted 8-11-2014), as follows: More than 8,300 Sioux Falls School District stakeholders are now relying on the District’s free app for their school news and information. The District launched the mobile app in August 2013 with the goal of increasing communication with all stakeholders and encouraging deeper engagement between those audiences and public schools. The District is designating August 31, 2015 as “Download Day” as a reminder to parents, students and community members to access the app if they have not yet done so. When school is in session, the most consistently popular app feature is the Elementary School Lunch Menu where it was accessed 4,415 times in the month of January 2015. Notifications spike when the weather has the potential to cause school delays or cancellations. In January 2015, 7,873 users received notifications from their app. Notifications consistently rank as the second most accessed feature with the School Calendar (2,347 in October 2014) coming in third. When school is not in session, the Job Openings icon ranks high with that option being accessed 919 times in July 2015. This is positive news in that hard-to-fill positions are likely being viewed by a new group of potential applicants who want and need mobile accessibility. Individual schools are doing a good job of promoting the app to their parents and stakeholders through school e-newsletters and at community events. Top users are:
• Memorial Middle School – 815 downloads • Roosevelt High School – 794 downloads • Patrick Henry Middle School – 651 downloads • Lincoln High School – 629 downloads • Washington High School – 612 downloads
The District encourages those who have not yet accessed the free app to join the crowd to become informed, in touch and inspired. In addition to “Download Day” the app will be promoted at school open houses and on the District’s website and social media pages. Grades can be accessed through the app in the Infinite Campus module to enhance parents’ ability to keep updated on grades, attendance and assignment information. The high schools were first to use the library fees portion of the app. The addition of other features is listed as a strategy for the coming school year. Following general discussion, a motion was made by Todd Thoelke and seconded by Carly Reiter, four (4) votes “yes” on roll call, acknowledging the update of stakeholder use of the Sioux Falls School District’s mobile app, as presented.

Following general discussion, a motion was made by Carly Reiter and seconded by Douglas C. Morrison, four (4) votes “yes” on roll call, acknowledging the FY15 Financial Wrap Up as presented.
