you at this point, as I do every month, I review our metrics. Right now, our enrollment is at 49,108 it continues to grow. Right now, based on spring count, we're at 48,685 students actually counted. The end of the spring count period is March 14. Right now, 99.2% of students enrolled or who are eligible to be counted in spring count have been counted. We're now doing home visits for those students have not attended school for a full day during the window calling home, and we have a log in order to do that. Our re enrollment rate is slightly higher than it was last year. Our average daily attendance continues to be higher than it was last year. It's about three percentage points higher at 84% our chronic absenteeism rate is down by about eight percentage points as compared to last year. We continue to see positive improvement at the high school level, where high school average daily attendance rate is at 83% about a two percentage point improvement from last year. And most importantly, our chronic absenteeism rate at the high school level is down six percentage points as compared to last year. Certainly the incentive continues to make a difference. The last cycle, we had 4000 students that had perfect attendance in a two week window that was increased, an increase of about 500 students from cycle two, and nearly 1000 students increase from cycle one. The next cycle ends March 13, which is in two days, and then we'll start cycle four, for the perfect attendance incentive, our our teachers with excellent or moderate attendance, is at 83% we did take an interim survey. 27% of students collectively felt love, challenged and prepared again. This was a modification of the survey that they're taking now, which is the end of the year, if you want to call it, that climate survey for our students, and our staff is taking that as well. We'll have the results of that in the summer as we move on. Regarding student achievement, right now, 53% of our students show at least one or more year of growth. That's slightly below where we ended last year, but obviously we have a couple more months of instruction, I would point out, as I have the continuation of students in the bottom 30 making strides in one or more year of growth, with 58% again, slightly lower than where we finished last year, but we still have more teaching and learning to do in math, 55% of students show one or more year of growth, slightly below five percentage points, were below where we were last year, but still showing strong growth when we project where we'll be at the end of the year in ELA. These numbers are not new. These are same numbers are reviewed last month. They're based on our mid year assessments and. 17% would be at and above grade level on grade three to 7m step, that's plus or minus three. And then in math, we're looking at about 13% which would be improvement as compared to last year. Sat about 30% of students are at are showing college readiness scores in grades three to 11, that would be an increase of where we left off, or one percentage point where we left lower than we left off last year, and in math, about one percentage point lower there where we ended last year. So we are trending in the right direction. I talked about graduation rates earlier and right now we have 63% of our juniors and seniors involved in college or career classes, and right now about 60% are passing both numbers are slightly where we were last year, or slightly above when we move into vacancies. Right now we have 36 teacher vacancies, 27 support staff vacancies. We have 17 custodian or contracted custodian vacancies, 19 cafeteria vacancies, six assistant principal vacancies, two counselors, five academic interventionists, three security guards, 13 ese Paras and six pre K Paras. Of our teacher vacancies, 12, our special education. We spoke at length at the finance committee about meal participation rates for breakfast and lunch. They are lower than they were last year. Our root cause of that appears to be the way in which we have to count breakfast and lunch with the actual meals. And so we had a rich conversation at the Finance Committee meeting about although we have brought ID cards, and that is a way to scan and track meal participation, not all of our students have their ID or keep their IDs, so we've we're thinking about maybe just having the Id stay at school so at minimum it can, they won't be lost in greater numbers, and we can track breakfast and lunch at higher levels. We also have to increase training for cafeteria staff on the technology, and then look at individual schools that are showing higher gaps of where they were last year to this year, and maybe infuse more part time people during the point in which students are scanned for breakfast and lunch, most of our operation metrics are trending below where they were last year. At this point, I'll move into a quick presentation about our homelessness office. This has been obviously put in the limelight, knowing the tragedy that one of our students faced with a death with not having secured housing. The other student was younger and not a school age. But we have been doing a lot in this body of work, and the work mainly is about identifying families that are eligible for homeless assistance. This is driven at the federal level through the McKinney, McKinney vento homelessness act, our Assistance Act. It was passed in 1987 it was updated in 2015 through the Every Student Succeeds Act or Esser. It is also applies not only to traditional public schools, but charter schools as well. And the ultimate goal of the act is to ensure identification, enrollment and success in school, despite challenges with housing insecurity. How do we define homelessness so children who lack a fixed, regular or adequate nighttime residence? Again, this isn't defined by dpscd, but federal law. So when we talk about fixed housing, we're talking about stationary, permanent, not subject to change. It needs to be regular housing, so predictable, routine, consistent basis. Consider relative permanency. So is it is a child consistently staying in one place, and is it adequate? Is it lawful? Is it reasonably sufficient? Is it meeting the physical and psychological needs
