Jerry Lee Faine Elementary School is one of 15 schools selected for the Governor’s Turnaround Schools initiative, which is designed to transform low-performing schools and the surrounding communities.
DOTHAN, Ala. - Governor Kay Ivey stopped at Jerry Lee Faine Elementary School in Dothan as part of her back-to-school tour.
A year after the launch of the initiative, the school’s principal has already noticed academic improvement. Prior to being selected for the initiative, Jerry Lee Faine Elementary gained a reputation for failing, according to Garst. With help in areas such as teacher growth and development, school climate, school leadership, and improved classroom practices, they expect students to produce better test scores. That improvement can also change community engagement, teacher retention, and recruitment, and improve the culture of the school.
