Teacher and Student Success Plan
2023 - 2024


Overarching Goal

Our longterm goal is to have 80% of students proficient in Language Arts, Math and Science as assessed by multiple measures including curriculum-based measures, pathways of progress, reading inventories and annual high-stakes assessments. In addition, we seek to show achievement scores on annual state assessments that place us at or above the 80th percentile of demographically like schools.

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:
 


The school community council has been apprised throughout the year on school data and ongoing use of Land Trust and TSSA funds. LandTrust/TSSP and/or data discussions took place on 10/12/22, 2/22/23 and 3/29/23. They reviewed goals and progress for the current year and gave input to the 2023-24 school year plan.

Academic Goals

Based on January 2023 Acadience Reading Composite Scores ,42% of K-3 students are not in the Pathways of Progress, While 27% of 4th and 5th graders are not yet proficient in literacy (based on Reading Inventory and . We believe the problem is a result of missing foundational skills and a need for more explicit comprehension instruction.
A strategy for improvement is continuing to enhance our foundations block in K-3 by using 95 Core phonics program and having classroom teachers be the primary providers of the 95% intervention program during skill-based instruction block and refining our use of explicit instruction and our application of interventions across all of Tier 2.


ELA Goals
By May 2024:
A. Increase the number of K-3 students in the pathways of progress on Acadience Reading Composite Scores from 58% (January 2023) to 70%.
B. Increase the number of 4-5 students proficient on Reading Inventory from 73% (January 2023) to 80%.
C. Raise overall school proficiency on RISE ELA scores in grades 3-5 from the 67th percentile (May 2022) to at or above the 75th percentile of demographically similar schools.

Action Plan Steps
1. Fund seven Tier 2 interventionists to provide evidence-based interventions to students achieving below benchmark or otherwise lacking specific identified skills in reading. ($81,473 - Landtrust)
2. Continued implementation of Wonders curriculum-refine current practice and add additional elements such as the Wonders writing curriculum
4. Continued use of 95% Core Phonics curriculum refining the practices we began in the 22-23 school year
5. Enhanced intervention time including Phonemic Awareness (PA) kits, Basic, Advance and Multisyllabic Chip Kits and Phonics Learning Library (PLL)
6. Provide planning time for implementation of enhanced interventions.
7. Provide subs for data days and peer walkthroughs ($2,500-Landtrust)
8. Include time in Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) for grade-level professional development
9. Public practice using lesson studies, peer walkthroughs and video observation and reflection
10. Refresher professional development (PD) on Dyad Reading
11. Pay for subs to allow us to hold monthly, day-long Building Leadership Team (BLT) meetings to allow us the additional time needed to analyze our data and monitor implementation. ($8,100-Landtrust)


Acadience Pathways of Progress K-3
Reading Inventory grades 4-5
RISE ELA test scores grades 3-5


We believe that the implementation of enhanced intervention time including PA kits, Basic, Advance and Multisyllabic Chip Kits and PLL will provide explicit and tactile instruction that is critical for students with disabilities. We will use Acadience progress monitoring to assess student growth and walkthroughs to monitor implementation.

Academic Goals

Based on Acadience Math Composite Scores, 28% of students are not in the Pathways of Progress, While 27% are not yet proficient based on Curriculum Based Measure (January 2023). We believe the problem is due to a lack of basic numeracy and number sense.

A strategy for improvement is refining our use of explicit instruction, increasing the use of the concrete, representational, abstract (CRA) model of instruction, increasing fact fluency with the Basic Fact Fluency Kit (BFF) as well as consistency in Daily Common Core review.


Math Goal
By May 2024:
A. Increase the number of students in the pathways of progress on Acadience Math Composite Scores from 81% (January 2023) to 85%.
B. Increase the number of students at or above benchmark on Acadience Math Composite Scores from 77% (January 2023) to 80%.
C. Raise overall school proficiency on RISE Math scores in grades 3-5 from the 71st percentile (May 2022) to at or above the 80th percentile of demographically similar schools.

Placing emphasis on explicit instruction and incorporating the concrete-representational-abstract (CRA) model for math makes learning accessible for all students. The BFF kit will provide additional foundational math skills to this subgroup.

Academic Goals

We believe that students will benefit from remapping science instruction more evenly across the year to develop and maintain scientific thinking and process skills throughout the year and right up to RISE testing time. We also believe that students will benefit from systematic review and backward planning that allows for adequate practice leading directly into the RISE testing window.


Science Goals
By May 2024:
A. 75% of 4th and 5th graders will be proficient on RISE science up from 71% on the 2022 RISE Science assessment.

Plan:
• 250 minutes for science 85 regular days vs 40 BB days
• Remapping, teach both science (2-3 days) and social studies (1-2 days) throughout the year.
• Planning so that there is review time prior to the RISE window opening.
• Creating/Finding tests that are like RISE
• Series of science PD w/district specialists-schedule 3 PDs for at the beginning of the year for grade level PDs during PLCs
• Public Practice: Observations, walkthroughs, and/or lesson studies
• Time in PLCs for lesson planning
• Purchase BrainPop site license. ($3,500)
• Stipends for summer remapping meetings.($7000-TSSP)
