The Guam Department of Education ("GDOE") presents this report in compliance with Guam Public Law ("P.L.") 26-26 that specifically requires the Department to report on the following information in the Annual State of Public Education Report ("ASPER"): (1) Demographic information on public school children in the community; (2) Information pertaining to student achievement, including Guam-wide assessment data, graduation rates and dropout rates, including progress toward achieving the education benchmarks established by the Guam Education Board (GEB); (3) Information pertaining to special program offerings; (4) Information pertaining to the characteristics of the schools and school staff, including certification and assignment of teachers and staff experience; (5) Budget information, including source and disposition of school operating funds and salary data; and (6) Examples of exemplary programs, proven practices, programs designed to reduce costs or other innovations in education being developed by the schools that show improved student learning. School Year 2021-2022 continued to be challenging due to the COVID-19 pandemic affecting Guam and the rest of the world. However, this school year also represented the opportunity to begin the work of reopening and recovering for the benefit of students and their future. With the influx of over $450 million in additional federal funding, GDOE worked hard to keep schools safe for reopening and to set aside funds to support learning acceleration and improvement to school facilities.
