Roadmap to Success
There are seven* core outcome areas, points of trackable achievement,that Spartanburg Academic Movement seeks to improve. They represent the critically important “learning stages” in the lives of our young people; stages by which academic success must be achieved, or the consequences will be negative and life-altering.
These “learning stages” have been identified as the most robust indicators of the status of academic achievement in Spartanburg County. SAM considers postsecondary persistence and postsecondary completion* as two separate learning stages.
The Data Team has established three-year rolling targets for most of these stages, leading toward achievement of the “40/30 Challenge,” the ultimate target metric of SAM.
