Academic and Behavior Goal Information

-   Goals are to be based on researched based instructional strategies

-   Goals need to be measurable

-   Goals will be tracked and evaluated by building administrators

-   Goals will give baseline data and measurable outcome data

  Determination of Goals

Data Workshops are held to review data sets, parent reports and individual student data. Reviews included Terra Nova parent reports, NeSA results and parent reports, DIBELS Data for the fall testing, and the District Data Spreadsheet. Reports are reviewed, plans for responding to needs are discussed and K-12 intervention strategies are presented and implemented. At Risk students are identified at the building level for possible intervention strategies. RtI is implemented at the Elementary levels for progress monitoring and a systematic approach for intensive intervention work. 

With reference to the academic goal, data encourages us to continue to target overall reading, specifically reading skills. Individual teacher goals will continue to be addressed through individual Building Action Plan Goals, with results reported to building administration.

Comprehension strategies have been implemented to offer additional opportunities for students and documentation of those strategies will be monitored at the building level and reported to Central Office. Data sources include, but are not limited to the following: Reading Mastery Results, Classroom Based Assessments, Statewide Writing, Statewide Reading, NRT (Norm Referenced Test) results, DIBELS (Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early Literacy Sills), Individual Teacher Goals results and CRT's (Criterion Referenced Tests). Individual buildings review data and through WFSG's (Whole Faculty Study Groups) and make determinations for their respective Action Plans. These plans are reviewed annually.  Working with goals can be done through the WFGS process individually and in teams.  Administration monitors progress of goals and helps with the collection of documentation and data. The District Assessment Team and the information determined at the DATA Retreat will guide the organization of presented data and the continued review and analysis of the data.

The District Behavior goal is monitored at the building level and through PBiS (Positive Behavior Supports). Leadership teams use the PBiS model to provide consistency with regards to behavior intervention.

All goals and updates will be documented in the School Improvement Profile. All data related to the school improvement Building Action Plan Goals, as they relate to the District Wide Goal, will be turned into Central office by the end of the first week of May of each school year, for the purpose of district reporting and school improvement work.  Building level teams will meet and report out to the district level team. Designated building level team members will serve on the District Steering Committee.  All district programs and resources included for local, state and federal requirements are integrated.  Educational opportunities fall under the umbrella, or in our case, a representative tree of Continuous and Integrated School Improvement.
