(Chelsea Update would like to thank Nick Angel for the information in this story.)
Beach Middle School and South Meadows Elementary School were recently named Academic All State School District for student progress.
“We continue to make great academic strides in the Chelsea Schools and I am very proud of our elementary and middle level efforts,” said Nick Angel, Beach principal.
Chelsea School District was named an Academic State Champ for 2018 by Bridge Magazine. Through research conducted by Stanford University, the honor is based on the grade level progression of students between third and eighth grades.
Chelsea is ranked in the top ten among mid-sized schools.

Highlights include:
During the 5 years that a student spends in the CSD (from 3-8th grades) they gain an average of 5.9 grade levels.
By third grade students started at a 3.7 grade level and by the time they left 8th grade they were at a 9.7 grade level.
Great work by our students and staff.
