Albion teachers will create engaging, intellectually demanding learning experiences that teach students to make interdisciplinary connections. Students will take ownership and find meaning in their education through active learning. Students will demonstrate their understanding through performance of academic skills, using supporting evidence, and applying problem-solving strategies.
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 progress towards our goals and the monitoring of the plan have been discussed in part or whole at each School Community Council meeting, including spending goals, ideas for improvement areas, and requests for information regarding programs and scheduling. in addition, information regarding previous year's plan and metrics were presented and discussed and approved. Each meeting includes time for feedback.

Academic Goals
Literacy proficiency, measured currently by the Reading Inventory, which correlates to the RISE assessment, is not where we expect Albion students to be scoring. 60% of our students made expected growth last year. We would like to focus on engaging, rigorous learning experiences to meet the needs of both highly proficient learners and struggling learners.
In the 2024-2025 school year, student literacy proficiency will increase by 6% from fall to spring on the new literacy assessment.

Academic Goals
Science literacy provides a context for examining claims, analyzing data, and problem-solving. Science-literate students learn to make intelligent and informed decisions. Albion's Science RISE data shows that for the last 3 school years, 74% of students scored Proficient and Advanced. We would like to break through this plateau with more inquiry-based instruction.
In the 2024-2025 school year, Science RISE scores will increase 1% from the previous (2023-2024) school year.
