What is School Level Planning? PDE required process for any school that is identified as being in School Improvement or Corrective Action. Requires examination of multiple sources of data by a team. Results in development of strategies to improve in targeted areas.
How did NHS become identified? • NHS is currently in School Improvement I for meeting 13 of 18 targets in 2011-12. Those not met are- • Math overall • Math for white students • Reading for white students • Graduation overall • Graduation for white students
Important Plan Elements • Data Analysis • PSSA, Graduation, Local, Performance, Perception • Identification of areas of need based on data analysis. Systems review and prioritizing focus. • Development of action plans to address need areas. • Execute plans and monitor.
Goal #1 • Establish a system within the school that fully ensures the consistent implementation of effective instructional practices across all classrooms. • Strategies: • Effective Instruction in PLC • PLC meetings, maintaining collaboration log • Observation for standards-aligned curricula • Admin. observations address effective instruction
Goal #2 • Establish a system within the school that fully ensures students who are academically at risk are identified early and are supported by a process that provides interventions based upon student needs and includes procedures for monitoring effectiveness. • Strategies: • Read 180/System 44 Universal Screening, Scheduling, Instruction • Test all students (gr. 8-11) in literacy, schedule students for intervention, and provide literacy intervention/instruction for as long as needed.
Goal #2 continued • Use of Classroom Diagnostic Tool (CDT) or Study Island Benchmark tools • Use assessments to demonstrate growth in content areas (math, English, science) • English Intervention- Instruction • Provide additional, targeted instruction to identified students during Academic Prep • Math intervention- Instruction • Provide additional, targeted instruction to identified students during Academic Prep
Goal #2 continued • Retention Homeroom • Group students who are retained into specific homerooms in order to target supports
Goal #3 • Establish a system within the school that fully ensures consistent implementation of standards. • Strategies • Observation for standards-aligned curricula • Admin. observations address use of standards- aligned curricula • Curriculum mapping • Teachers continue process of mapping/updating maps for all courses under Dr. Minnich’s direction.
Next Steps • Continue monitoring • Revise plan as directed • Await performance data and AYP status from 2013-14 tests • Keystone Algebra I • Keystone English-reading • Continue to create structures that work toward vision!
