Lucilla Davila, Associate Superintendent >>>>> Academic Results for Schools Supervised

Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) Associate Superintendent Lucilla Davila is one of four staff members at the Davis Center (MPS central offices, 1250 West Broadway) who occupy the associate superintendent position, which in each case is remunerated at a level of $144,330.

 

The Associate Superintendents report directly to Michael Thomas (Chief of Academics, Leadership, and Learning with salary of $163,761).  Inasmuch as Thomas’s Deputy Chief of Academics, Leadership, and Learning is Cecilia Saddler (salary, $151,980);  and Chief of Research, Innovation, Assessment, and Accountability Eric Moore (salary, $147,900) is by definition accountable for academic results for students in the Minneapolis Public Schools;  these two, along with Thomas, must be held responsible for the academic results produced at schools for which Davila and the other associate superintendents have direct oversite.     

 

On this, the previous two, and the succeeding article as you scroll down this blog, I give data for the assessment of the performances of the individual associate superintendents, on the basis of academic performance for students at schools under their supervision.  All of these data and accompanying analysis is derived from material that I am entering into chapters of my substantially complete book, Understanding the Minneapolis Public Schools:  Current Condition, Future Prospect.

 

As you peruse the following data presentation, be attentive to the fact that Anderson, Cityview, and Hmong International have very substantial percentages of students on free or reduced price lunch, indicative of high concentrations of poverty;  the schools Bancroft, Folwell, Marcy, and Sheridan have demographic affinities with these schools.  Those of Armatage, Barton, Dowling, Emerson, Seward, Whittier, and Windom by contrast include many affluent families in the communities from which they draw students.

 

Consider now the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment (MCA) data for 2014, 2015, 2016, and 2017 as pertinent to the schools under Lucilla Davila’s oversite:
