2020. So 2021 would have been the first year that we brought back state assessments. Last year, we had a graduation rate of 66%, which was devastating to us as a school community. The reasons for that steep decline.

that they were going to attend adult ed. They never actually enrolled in adult ed or if they did, they didn't complete a high school diploma pathway there. GEDs do not count towards graduation rate. So if a student drops out of Cocoa High and goes to adult ed and earns a GED, that doesn't count as a positive percentage point for a graduation rate. We did have students that did that. And certainly GEDs do make them eligible for a lot of other opportunities. So while it's not a graduation rate indicator, it is still a positive path for a student. It does give them some career and even post-secondary schooling opportunities. So a lot of our effort this year has been put into increasing student performance on math and ELA tests. And a lot of the partnership between Elevate Brevard and Cocoa High has focused on that specifically. And I'll let Dr. Doakes speak to some of those efforts. One of the things that we have pushed very hard in the last couple of years is our CTE certifications. And I gave you an extra document that's related to that.

I think about sustainability, the things that I think about partnering with the city on is one, my students desperately need access to food and housing. My free and reduced lunch population is 81% and climbing. We don't have this year's final numbers until the end of the year just because of enrollment throughout the year. And certainly I have had an increase in students in transition or homelessness. These are things that obviously play a huge impact on a student's ability to learn and be ready for learning when they come to school. I did want to point out too that the health and safety of our students is very critical. I know that that's one of the things that sustainability that you discuss and you look at.

Athletics is one thing that Coco High does really, really well. And it's one of the greatest ways that we can get students to buy into academics through athletics, ‸ because for a lot of our student athletes, it's a means to scholarships for college and post-secondary pursuits.

That's why we've been trying to emphasize them so much during course selection time, which is what we're in right now at the school. As a matter of fact, just today, our eighth graders did a field trip, an on-school field trip, where they visited all of the different CTE programs and got information about the programs, got to try, you know, do things in the classrooms, trying to increase that, that interest. But our data is good in CTE. We've increased enrollment. We've increased our performance. We look to increase again this year. Our overall college

year, despite the fact that our graduation rate dropped. We are those who are sticking with us are becoming college and career ready at a consistently increasing rate. So I feel good about the direction that we're headed. We know where we need to go. And that's kind of that last document is planning with the end in mind. That's a teacher. That's a teacher phrase, but it's really the truth. We need to know what our end goal is in order for us to come up with a pathway there. And so our goal is increasing the graduation rate, which ‸ we are hoping to be able to do, continuing to increase the college and career readiness. And then obviously graduate, like I said, the students who are immediate positive contributors to the local economy, both as a workforce and as consumers, too. We want to make them help create situations for them where they have the finances to invest in the local economy, to have the extra funds to support our local businesses, which I think is also very important.

but what I can tell you is from a school side, you know, and to a certain degree, we're limited by what Florida, the state of Florida says students have to take in order to graduate. Right.

Some of those internships are paid internships, which is great because not only is the student getting to leave school early, which they like that part of it.

Got to keep the end in mind. My name is Cynthia. Dr. D. Dr. Dokes. And I work for Elevate Brevard, which is a sub-program under Family Promise of Brevard. So, everybody thinks we're two different things. I'm a ‸ program in Family Promise. So, that's the difference between Elevate Brevard and Family Promise. And so, the premise of this is the governor's sale to 60. 60% of residents having a post-secondary education by the year 2030. Now, that data that I said before, 18% of people having their associate's degree, we're far from 60. So, it'd be unrealistic to think that we're going to reach that 60.

Yeah. Yeah. ‸ And we've also, you've probably seen around town, we've started doing floating wetlands a few years ago. Those have been really, really successful for us. Not only just from a capital standpoint, it's a really good bang for your buck when it comes to nitrogen removal. And, you know, basically, if you don't know what they are, you're creating a wetland and a stormwater pond. So stormwater ponds are meant for stormwater. They're not, when they were originally constructed and most of our ponds around here were constructed a long time ago, that was the intent for stormwater, and that's it. Not to be ecosystems and things like that. That's why you see steep banks and things like that. So this kind of creates that ecosystem out in the middle of the pond, and you're putting these plants there, and they're absorbing the nitrogen, and they're growing, And then every year our contractor comes in and harvest them, take them to a lab, and they can measure the amount of nitrogen that's removed within the plants because they have enough baseline studies.

you don't normally get grants when you apply for them. They're very competitive, of course. And so we got that one. We're pretty excited about it.

And we're, when that's completed, along with a couple more baffle boxes, we should almost be done with our required nutrient removal, the state requirement for the TMDLs and the BMAPs for the Indian River Lagoon.

And so the goal is with the engineer to look at a couple different options, look at the cost, you know, a floating concrete type dock that's not necessarily connected to anything.

I've noticed around the country that that's pretty much now become standard for resurfacing city streets. It's just very effective.

[01:21:54] Speaker 9

‸ Yes, so ‸ we mill and resurface annually. We don't always do FDR. We only need that if there's issues in the base. And you can usually tell, you know, if it's like you're driving on a dirt road or something, ‸ there's base issues. It's not just asphalt. So that's pretty selective when we do that. But the mill and resurface is standard. That's what you see most ‸ areas do. You're really not supposed to simply overlay, which is what a lot of areas used to just come in and topcoat it with an inch or two inches of asphalt. You run into ADA issues. And drainage issues. It's not a good practice when you have curved roadway.
