other test scores as appropriate.
Describe how the school stakeholders and the CSIP Steering Committee developed a comprehensive needs assessment. Include
information about when, where, and how the team met*.
The performance learning coach, zone and principal attended the Georgia DOE summer leadership academy on June 24 – 25, 2014 at the Macon
Centreplex in Macon, Georgia to discuss the needs assessment and development of the comprehensive school improvement plan development for
2014 - 2015. The leadership team will meet at a designated time and location to discuss how best to involve and inform the entire faculty to set the
S.M.A.R.T. goals/targets for the year. We reviewed the CSIP in order to get staff and community input so that we could finalize the plan prior to
the beginning of the 2013 – 2014 school term. We determined the strengths and weaknesses of the instructional program of Northeast High
School. We conducted a root cause analysis of school strengths and weaknesses to further determine our course of implementation for intellectual
performance for all students. Analysis of data indicated weaknesses in the area of mathematics, United History, Coordinate Algebra, and literacy.

used during increased learning time and advisement to address the needs of students who have not met expectations.
Describe the procedures in place to identify and address the needs of students who have met expectations in order to facilitate their
progress toward exceeding expectations.
Students who have met expectations are identified through both formative and summative assessments. Flexible grouping during increased
learning time will provide enrichment, peer coaching, and extended learning opportunities through activities that require higher order thinking
skills. During the 2012-2013 school year, some certified staff received gifted endorsement training and AP training to enhance teachers’
understanding of how to plan lessons for higher-order thinking skills. All core area teachers will begin training in using the new CCGPS
(Common Core Georgia Performance Standards).
Describe the school-wide policies, procedures and programs in place to address the needs of gifted, talented, and high achieving students
through academic rigor (advanced academics). How does the school schedule and classroom instruction ensure academic rigor, promote
student engagement, and increase student achievement for students with high ability levels?
High-performing students are identified through both formative and summative assessments. These students are recommended for Honors,
Accelerated and Advanced Placement courses. During the 2010-11 school year, all certified staff receive gifted endorsement training. All staff
will also be encouraged to attend the Advanced Placement Summer Institute.
Providing Students with Effective, Timely Additional Assistance to Meet Student Needs (ESEA Mandate)
Describe how and when students in need of additional assistance are identified.
Timely assistance is important for helping students who are experiencing difficulty in his/her classes. A student contract will be implemented for
students who have a 69 or below grade average in any class. A parent will be contacted for the purpose of scheduling a parental conference.
During the conference, factors contributing to the student’s performance will be indicated on the plan and explained to the parent. Teacher
comments as well as parent comments will also be indicated on the plan. During the conference, the teacher will discuss with the parent
intervention strategies that will be implemented to help the student master standards and achieve academic success in the course. Phone
communication in lieu of face-to-face interaction will be implemented for those parents who are unable to attend conferences due to work schedule
or unforeseen circumstances.
