Press release from Fort Wayne Community Schools:<\/p>\n

Croninger, Irwin recognized as Four Star Schools<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

(January 13, 2009) Croninger and Irwin elementary schools were named Four Star Schools for the 2008-09 school year, the highest distinction given to schools by the state.<\/p>\n

Schools are awarded the designation if they are among the top 25 percent of schools in the state, based on ISTEP+ results and attendance rates. Statewide, 188 schools were named Four Star Schools. This is the fourth consecutive year Croninger has earned the designation and the second
\nyear for Irwin.<\/p>\n

“Croninger is honored to receive this coveted award for the fourth year in a row,” Principal Rebecca Dennis said. “The teachers and staff make it their mission each day to reach every child’s individual learning needs. This is an ongoing process and a collaborative team effort that produces high quality results. Teachers work very hard and in close cooperation with parents who support our school.”<\/p>\n

At Irwin, Principal Ingrid Laidroo-Martin credits the work done by teachers and students under former principal Jeff Cline, who moved to Fairfield Elementary this year.<\/p>\n

“Staff members looked at their own data, and helped the students understand the data so they could take responsibility for their own success,” she said. “I think that’s what did it, and that is what we will keep doing. We are working closely with parents and students to make sure they know where they stand and what they need to do to be successful.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
