Schools that produce outstanding academic outcomes do so in large part because they expect outstanding outcomes of both staff and students.  Meeting and exceeding these expectations will be a goal for every student, regardless of proficiency level for every grade and in all core subject areas. By 8th grade, it is expected that a majority of students will meet or exceed state and federal accountability targets, and all adults at South City Preparatory Academy will be held accountable and take responsibility for reaching these targets.
