Teacher and Student Success Plan
2023 - 2024
Overarching Goal
The goal for Union Middle School is for all students to show growth in literacy in all subject areas and math by ensuring that students have access to high-quality instruction in a safe, positive learning environment that focuses on the overall wellness of students as outlined in Canyons District Strategic Plan.
School Community Council and Staff Involvement in the TSSP
School Community Councils play an integral part in the development and monitoring of TSSP goals. Please briefly describe the participation of SCC members in the development process of this TSSP:
Union Middle School Community Council (SCC) members meet on a monthly basis to discuss and review data trends. This allows for adjustments and development of ideas for the next year school plan. Ideas are then presented to the SCC and BLT in January and February. In March and April decisions about how to utilize the LandTrust monies and adjust the goal and action plans are discussed and approved.

The reading inventory assessment (RI) will be given in the fall of 2023 to all students to establish baseline data. It will be given again in the winter of 2023 to track progress. The final administration of the Reading Inventory (RI) will occur in the spring 2024.
Students with disabilities will be provided a learning environment that focuses on their individual needs, while ensuring that the priority standards are being taught. We will provide the accommodations and /or the specially designed instruction required on IEP's or on 504's plans. In addition, teachers will support Tier 1 instruction with embedded high quality instructional scaffolds, such as: rubrics, graphic organizers, explicit vocabulary instruction, small group instruction, providing visuals and modeling.
Multilingual Learners (ML's) will be provided a learning environment that focuses on their individual needs, while ensuring that the priority standards are being taught. St students' WIDA and Reading inventory (RI) scores will be analyzed and professional development on specific strategies to support multilingual learners with be provided to all teachers. Progress will be monitored through the Reading Inventory (RI), Read 180 assessments, and teacher created assessment
Progress will be sent and communicated through parent square, announcements and SCC monthly meetings. Growth reports will be available for all students either by parent request or attending parent teacher conferences. Teachers will receive information by accessing data dash board or attending school wide professional development.

School Climate Goals
Problem Statement

We believe the challenge is students' social and emotional well-being as well as their understanding of how to be a successful student has been adversely affected by the disruption of school structure.
Measured by the CTESS teacher/student surveys, we will increase our performance yearly on the following survey questions:
I am pleased with how this school supports my child's emotional well-being (Union 3.16 district 3.2)
My school is a place where I feel safe (Union 3.12 district 3.24)
I am pleased with how this school supports my child's emotional well-being (Union 3.16 district 3.2)
My school is a place where I feel safe (Union 3.12 district 3.24)
