Current Student Achievement Data
• This school year students have taken the baseline
assessments for their subject areas; all core subjects
also took an end of semester exam and a mid year
scrimmage assessment. Biology also took turkey
assessments in November to gauge gaps in learning.
• These assessments were taken during their
assessment windows, baseline at the beginning of
the school year to establish their initial knowledge,
and the mid year scrimmages were given from early
December through mid-January (23rd
).

Our Operating System
• Based on the current data collected from assessments, what are the points of strength
and what are the areas of need?

Identification
16
Problem Identification and Analysis -- READINGPoints of Strength Root Cause “Why” How will the school
maintain this strength?
Increase FSA Reading/Writing
score in 9th & 10th Grades
from 61 to 62% proficiency
Increase Growth (50-52%) and
BQ gains (35-40%)
- Poor vocabulary awareness;
Lack of stamina for reading
long passages; Inability to
identify evidence in literary
assignments; Inability to
synthesize informational text.
Continue with Coach &
Administrative support of best
practices, including data-
based differentiated
instruction; constant formative
assessment analyses,
Mentoring and Tutoring
sessions (data chats with
students); Increase
opportunities for reading. Use
of Achieve 3000 with fidelity.
Increase number of
concordant Seniors using
PERT, SAT, and ACT
opportunities.
- Students have been unable
to pass the FSA Reads;
Infrequent readers;
Attendance issues and lack of
motivation.
Continue having Grad Coach
& ACT/SAT teacher support;
test prep boot Camps; Admin
progress monitoring & data
chats with individual Seniors;
AIT Meetings
17
Problem Identification and Analysis -- MATHAreas of Need Root Cause “Why” How will the school address
student needs?
Geometry Achievement
Data
36-71% Goal of 73%
Students might be more
apt to try and memorize
formulas and not learn
fundamental concepts of
the topic, proofs are new to
the students and first time
exposure might be
reflected in the scores
Monitor Geometry pacing and
classroom engagement. Observe
higher order questioning and probing,
and help teachers identify small group
(pull out) activities to differentiate
instruction. Mentoring (data chats)
and tutoring.
--Have the District specialist spend
additional time in these classes. Use of
Math Nation.
Algebra I Achievement
Data
41-77% Goal of 78%
New concepts to incoming
Freshmen about Algebraic
fundamentals; Various
levels of teacher
pedagogical knowledge;
Possible % dip due to
strategical moves last
school year.
Implement co-teaching of Algebra I in
struggling learners; double block Level
3’s with same teacher to increase, not
lower scores. Use of Algebra Nation &
MathXL; Consistent PLC collaboration;
and frequent modeling by District
Math Coach

Empowering Parents and Families
• What are we doing well?
Building Parent Partnerships through our PTSA, SAC, ROTC Boosters,
Athletic Program Parents, Band Boosters, Choral and Drama Parents,
Medical Career Academy Advisory Board, Biomedical Career Academy
Advisory Board, Faith-Based Partners
AVID Parent Association
SAC Meetings are well attended with 80%+ always there
• Do you have any ideas or suggestions to share on areas in which we can
improve?
-- We need to build our Advisory Boards up and get more consistent
attendance at our quarterly meetings
-- PTSA Regular Meetings need to have increased attendance.
How To Get Involved?
34
Parent Teacher Association (PTA)• PTSA meets once a month to discuss upcoming projects for the school. PTSA
provides the school with meals for teachers throughout the year, including
Chili lunch before winter break, opening of school luncheon, support for the
new teacher luncheon during pre planning, as well as other meals. They also
celebrate our teachers with a special luncheon and gifts during Teacher
Appreciation Week.
• PTSA works with the school helping to support projects like For the Love of
Reading to provide books to each student in the school. They provide swag
bags for our Literary Ambassadors during the Genre Fan Fair each year, and
collect socks for the Homeless at Christmas.
• Our PTSA members also judge projects for the Health Fair, the History Fair,
the Genre Fan Fair, and Science Fair -- all of which are held on our campus.
• PTSA also works with the school on support for Lunch and Lap and different
organizations.

School Advisory Council (SAC)
What is the SAC ?The responsibility of the SAC is to provide parents, citizens, faculty, and staff an
opportunity to participate in the development of educational priorities, assessment
of a school’s needs, and identification of local resources.
What decisions has the SAC been involved in? What has been some of the focus?
-- SAC decides on how to spend SIP dollars each year. They have paid for teachers to
attend conferences; have purchased special materials, maps, and projectors and bases
for projectors with their dollars. These monies are usually sent to schools in March or
April. They do roll to the next year. We currently have no money to spend.
-- SAC Members have participated in the writing and the critiquing of our annual
School Improvement Plan. They gave insight on targets for our subject areas, and
provided valuable time for the many meetings required to write the PLAN. They also
vote to accept our SIP and help us monitor the plan.
-- Some SAC Members donate dollars to help needy students pay for ACT & SAT Tests.
-- Some SAC Members donate dollars to the school to help defray costs for hospitality
needs
