Teacher and Student Success Plan
2023 - 2024


Overarching Goal

Students are advancing into new grade level classes without having mastered current grade level skills. This is creating a skill gap that makes them ill-prepared for the increasing difficulty of the new grade level tasks and the higher expectations for mastery of skills and strategies. We are striving for coherence among our grade levels and we are creating a contiguous process of interventions. School-wide, we will focus on tailoring our classroom instruction to grade level standards and not just teaching straight through the book. We will anchor our planning and assessments to the standards, and make adjustments to instruction based on the data.


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:
 

We will share reading and Core 5 data with School Community Council. Our goal is to have all students at or above grade level by the time they start their 4th grade year.

We will share benchmarks and interim goals on Acadience Reading K-6 Pathways to Progress reports.

We will celebrate student growth when they meet their interim goals.

Academic Goals

70% of all of our students at Crescent Elementary are making typical or better progress on Acadience Pathways to Progress. Our school goal is 80% for students in Kindergarten - 5th grades.
We believe the challenge is a result of underestimating the power of solid core instruction. One reason this may be occurring is incomplete understanding of solid core instruction including: standards, curriculum, assessment, coherence, maximizing instructional minutes, and public practice. A strategy for improvement is planning through backward design of standards, including structured classroom discussion and planned sentence frames.


By May 2024, 80% of all students in Kindergarten - 5th grades will show typical or above typical growth (3 to 5 stars) from fall to spring as measured by Acadience Reading K-6 Pathways to Progress reports.

School Climate Goals

We feel the primary concern impacting our School Climate is lack of strong student-teacher relationships.
One reason this may be occurring is more attention is needed to focus on long-lasting interpersonal relationships and address the Social Emotional gaps that have widened due to Covid.
Strategies for improvement are: continuing to build relationships by greeting students at the door daily, saying goodbye to them daily, and holding meaningful morning circles. We feel using morning circle we will be able to arm our students and teachers with knowledge they need to address these issues in social and emotionally appropriate ways.


CLIMATE GOAL
By May 2024, Crescent Elementary will build strong, positive student-teacher relationships by greeting students at the door and saying goodbye to them at the door daily, and holding daily meaningful 15-minute Morning Circles that include a greeting, sharing, activity, and Morning Message.

Professional Development on Morning Circles and building positive teacher-student relationships will be delivered in August before school begins and reiterated monthly in faculty meetings and grade level PLCs.
