Many Salado ISD students excelled during the coronavirus crisis, but not remote learners.
Despite an evident decline in student performance during the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness exams this past spring, Salado ISD Superintendent Michael Novotny said his districtâs student body still tested above the stateâs scores â a challenge he stressed was overcome during an era of pandemic-related learning loss.
âOur STAAR scores took a dip from two years ago, like all districts statewide did, but thankfully we were still above state scores,â he told the Telegram. âBut remote learners ⦠did have the greatest decrease in scores.â

Gov. JB Pritzker speaks at a news conference at the state s Illinois Emergency Management Agency offices in Springfield last year. His office said Friday it has no plans for added mitigations amid rising virus positivity rates.
The wide availability of COVID-19 vaccines has changed the state’s approach for mitigating the virus’ spread statewide and in schools.
For school districts, that means suggested rather than required guidance, with an emphasis on local control in imposing mitigations.
For the governor’s office, that means there are “no plans” to reinstate some of the mitigation measures and economic shutdowns that were commonplace earlier in the pandemic.
