New Future Ready PA Index shows Deer Lakes students well prepared for career and college readiness
Pennsylvania’s new school evaluation tool, the Future Ready PA Index, demonstrates that Deer Lakes School District students are acquiring the vital skills and essential knowledge needed for success in their future endeavors.

The Future Ready PA Index measures college and career readiness, such as industry-based learning and access to rigorous courses of study, student academic improvement, and growth on a variety of indicators – reducing the reliance on standardized test scores as the sole measurement of a school’s success.  

The index provides the Deer Lakes community with a more holistic picture of our schools’ performance beyond test scores with a transparent and easy-to-use online tool.

As the tool was being developed, educators, parents, and community members from across the state, including those from Deer Lakes, provided input to the Pennsylvania Department of Education on the measurements and evaluation indicators that should be considered for the Future Ready PA Index.

The Future Ready PA Index provides insight into the dynamic work taking place in Deer Lakes schools.
