  18. Our Plan Of Action

  19. Action Plan All of our actions for the 2011-12 school year are directly linked to our test scores and the needs of our students. Action Items in Place: • School Improvement Plan • Title 1 Plan of Improvement

  20. Components of the SIP and TIP • Weekly Professional Development and Team Planning • Instructional Support • Specifically Designed Programs for Instruction • Additional Resources (Human and Instructional) • Analysis of the Data on an Ongoing Basis

  21. Weekly Professional Development • Individualized sessions utilizing the resources of EdisonLearning staff (VPES, Math Specialist, Special Education Coordinator, etc.) Each session broken down to address specific strands identified on assessments. Ex: Geometry in Math, Spelling on ITBS, Government in Social Studies. • Fulton County Data Support Specialist • Metro RESA: Specific courses designed to empower teachers with tools in Math, ELA, and Science related to the Georgia Performance Standards • Academy Directors have submitted their PD calendars for the year which focus on particular academic areas requiring support/growth.

  22. Instructional Support • Monitoring of Teaching – Classroom Observations • Lesson Planning – Weekly meetings with AD’s to go over Lesson Plan Checklists • Assessment – A “Cycle of Instruction” will ensure that students are given time to practice what is taught • Daily Remediation by our Title I Math and Reading Teachers – Students are identified and being served on a daily basis through a consistent schedule

  23. Specific Structures/Programs • Embed math instruction into daily Morning Meetings – Teachers use “eValuate” data to inform Morning Meetings, submitting a “focus plan” in advance • Saturday School – Using “Measuring Up”, “Coach”, “Study Island”, “Renzulli Learning” and “GOAS” • Before/After-school Tutoring – (As above) • Daily targeted skill instruction in Math, Social Studies & Science (Flexible grouping within class or grade level)

  24. Resources • School-wide Study Island (online CRCT Prep and Remediation program for students and teachers) • Title 1 Math and ELA teacher to support struggling students • The purchasing of additional resources will be pursued as a Focus Group identifies specific needs (Science Lab materials, Science Kits, Social Studies home-help workbooks, etc) • Further development of curriculum maps aligned with Georgia Performance Standards will occur during planned PD and teacher work days • Conduct a “gap analysis” with a Focus Group and then submit recommendations on ways identified standards can be taught

  25. Analysis of Data • With teachers (Support/Training provided by Fulton County DSS, TMSA Data Specialist, and Edison Learning) • Deeper ITBS, Benchmark and Weekly Assessment Analysis – Going into the strands • A Data Calendar will be created to analyze incoming data with teachers. These school-wide needs will be addressed in Faculty Meetings and Grade Level House Professional Development • Professional Development Day each week devoted to looking at each student's performance by standard and strand • Identification of students who are close to “proficient” through the lens of student work and data
