The process focuses school and district improvement efforts on student needs by bringing together all stakeholders to plan for improvement, by focusing planning efforts on priority needs and closing achievement gaps between subgroups of students, by building upon school and district capacity for high quality planning, and by making connections between the funds that flow into the district and the priority needs in schools.

The context in which teaching and learning takes place influences the processes and procedures by which the school makes decisions around curriculum, instruction, and assessment. The context also impacts the way a school stays faithful to its vision. Many factors contribute to the overall narrative such as an identification of stakeholders, a description of stakeholder engagement, the trends and issues affecting the school, and the kinds of programs and services that a school implements to support student learning. The purpose of the Executive Summary (ES) is to provide a school with an opportunity to describe in narrative form the strengths and AF T challenges it encounters. By doing so, the public and members of the school community will have a more complete picture of how the school perceives itself and the process of self-reflection for continuous improvement. This summary is structured for the school to reflect on how it DR provides teaching and learning on a day to day basis. SY 2015-2016 © 2015 Advance Education, Inc.

Page 3 KDE Comprehensive School Improvement Plan Tilden Hogge Elementary School Description of the School Describe the school's size, community/communities, location, and changes it has experienced in the last three years. Include demographic information about the students, staff, and community at large. What unique features and challenges are associated with the community/communities the school serves? Tilden Hogge Elementary (T.H.E.S.) services approximately 200 students in kindergarten through fifth grade. T.H.E.S. is located in the AF T ruralcommunity of Cranston in Morehead, KY. THE is situated approximately 20 miles from the closest city, Morehead, KY. The community of Cranston is supportive of the school and teachers. Volunteers or parents/community to serve on committees are encouraged. Many businesses in Morehead, Ky. and Lexington, Ky. collaborate with T.H.E.S. to provide students experiences of a variety of aspects. Tilden Hogge has not experiences demographic changes in the past 4 years. T.H.E.S. continues to not have need for ELL services and is 99% Caucasian. Students attending T.H.E.S. come from families with low income with approximately 70% of students eligible for free and/or reduced lunch. Recently construction has began on Cranston to establish a barrel making factoring. There are also plans of widening the road of Cranston in the next three years. These changes are foreseen to increase the population at T.H.E.S. and bring more diversity to the areas. Tilden Hogge Elementary is unique in that it is a 52 years old school renovated nine years ago. T.H.E.S is the oldest elementary school in Rowan County district with a rich past of committed, and talented teachers who have taught generations of students who have been successful nationally and globally. As strong as the teacher commitment has been the parent commitment has been displayed for generations. Many students who attend T.H.E.S. have previous generations from their family who attended T.H.E.S. Like many areas in the nation our students have felt the impact of the drug epidemic impacts families. Many students have family members in jail, absent, or deceased early due to drugs. This has caused many of them to be in the situation of being raised by family members. Tilden Hogge's administration, teachers, and parents revisited and updated the school mission statement in 2006. The mission is one that has carried the work for many years because it is based on assessment of what students need. The mission statement states that we will work to provide DR students with instruction based upon the most current content standards, research based instructional strategies, and methodology. Assessments of student learning shall be frequent and on going. Assessment data shall be used to provide information for development and directing of resources for appropriate intervention or enhancement opportunities for every student. It is evident that this mission is the focus of work for faculty and staff due to instructional planning which occurs in data teams weekly. Grade level data teams meet weekly and consist of teachers, school administration, and district administration. In addition to school level data teams SBDM council reviews progress of students monthly to drive their decisions. The school level administration also meets with district level administration monthly to provide evidence of work completed in data teams with each grade level and how that impacts work toward the comprehensive school improvement plan. While the majority of the data used for data team planning is classroom level assessments benchmark assessments and diagnostic assessments in reading, math, and writing are used to plan small group instruction. Instructional assistant schedules are changed after an instructional cycle of 15 days to provide interventions to flexible groups. Tilden Hogge is most proud of the increase in writing and math performance for student during the 2015-2016 school year. Tilden Hogge is proud of the increase in writing for the non duplicated gap group from 12.6% to 35% in one year, but continues to improve writing instruction for students. With a majority of low income families this school has a large number of students in the non-duplicated gap group. This increase in one year is one of pride for THE due the time spent in trainings and implementing the school writing plan. Administration and teachers are also very proud of the variety of improved programs students have access to for program review. T.H.E.S. program review score increased by 30% since the pilot year. This is a result of intentional planning and documenting of the improved programs at T.H.E.S. SBDM and school faculty and staff plan to continue work in reading, math, and writing to achieve proficient status. Tilden Hogge will continue to improve reading for students by implementing Reading Street series, Fountas and Pinnell, 95% group phonics based program, and comprehensive toolkit. T.H.E.S. will continue work with the Lucy Caulkins writing materials and assessing writing for the school year to motivate individual students on the writing continuum. Faculty and staff continue to teach common core math using the Envisions resources. This program SY 2015-2016 Page 4 © 2015 Advance Education, Inc.

Include information on how stakeholders were selected and informed of their roles, and how meetings were scheduled to accommodate them. Tilden Hogge Elementary held a Back to School Social in August during the first two weeks of school. During this event many groups had AF T tables set up for parents to get information from, give information, buy items, or sign up for school level duties. One table was hosted by the school Parent Teacher Committee. The parents of this committee had reviewed all by-law committees and their responsibilities with the administration before setting them out for parents to sign up to participate. After this training PTC recruited parent and community volunteers during this event. Since August all committee meetings have been scheduled at 3:30 unless parent or community member requested a different time. To date we have had parent participation with only one rescheduled meeting. Describe the representations from stakeholder groups that participated in the development of the improvement plan and their responsibilities in this process. Tilden Hogge Elementary has had representation of certified and classified school employees, district employees, parents, and Morehead State University education professors. Their responsibility was to review the CSIP from last school year with this year's school report card, and revise goals and develop new goals for improving the school this school year. The revised and newly developed goals were then DR reviewed, revised, and accepted by SBDM council and sent for approval by the Board of Education. Explain how the final improvement plan was communicated to all stakeholders, and the method and frequency in which stakeholders receive information on its progress. The final improvement plan is communicated to all stakeholder via school website. A community call and email goes to all parents and community members to describe steps of accessing this plan on the school website. This message included directions for families who need access to computers or would like a printed copy. The school will provide access and/or hard copies of the plans for anyone who does not have internet access.

Page 82 KDE Comprehensive School Improvement Plan Tilden Hogge Elementary School Introduction As part of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) each state is required to develop strategies to ensure that poor and minority children are not taught at higher rates than other children by inexperienced, unqualified, or out-of-field teachers. The results of this effort became a national push to ensure all teachers were highly qualified (HQT); meaning each teacher holds the appropriate certification for the content and/or grade level for which they are assigned. National data show that poor and minority continue to be taught by inexperienced, unqualified, or out-of-field teachers. As a result, in 2014, the United States Department of Education (USDOE) required states to develop equity plans and use evidence based strategies to address this issue. The focus of the plan is to move away from the concept of “highly qualified” to “high DR AF T effective”. SY 2015-2016 © 2015 Advance Education, Inc.

What are the barriers identified? Comment Attachment AF T Label 1.1 Barriers for T.H.E.S. learners include kindergarten readiness, low socio-economic community and gender. What sources of data were used to determine the barriers? KPREP state testing and student registration information was used to determine barriers. What are the root causes of those identified barriers? Exposure of middle class vocabulary and experiences are lacking for a large population of T.H.E.S. students. We know this causes a separation of readiness for those students with and without these experiences that continues to impact a students' outlook on education as DR each year passes. What does the Professional Growth and Effectiveness System data say about the effectiveness of teachers in the school? PGES data shows that effectiveness of teachers continues to improve with professional trainings and new hires. Teachers have been observed as accomplished throughout each grade level when knowing their students and how to respond to the variety of barriers and instructional needs they bring to their classes.

AF T Tilden Hogge Elementary implements the following grouping strategies that will support our instructional and assessment practices when -Traditional grade groupings for homeroom assignments. -Flexible groupings of students may be used for instruction based on student needs. -Mixed ability grouping for instruction, when possible and feasible, with grouping and regrouping of students as needed for individual and small group instruction and reinforcement. -If a split class is deemed necessary due to number of students versus the number of teachers it is at the principal's discretion to make that decision. Placement In May of each year, each grade level of teachers will meet with the Principal to determine levels of students and assign students to homerooms for the next school year based on the best heterogeneous grouping possible regards to academics, gender, ethnicity, learning styles, social issues, and student behavior. This will be accomplished in a timely manner, not exceeding cap size. The following criteria will DR be considered in the following order when dividing students: 1)Special needs students will be divided equally. 2)Student's whose behavior requires modifications and/or additional attention divided equally. 3)Teacher recommendation- principal meets with grade levels to discuss learning styles, social issues, and develop levels of students (lowmedium-high). 4)Parent requests When each grade level and Principal have assigned students to homerooms, the Principal will collect the homeroom lists, assign a teacher to each list, and make any necessary changes that do not interfere with the heterogeneous grouping. When all of these steps have been completed, the Principal will share homeroom lists with individual teachers. The homeroom teachers will make any suggested changes with consideration of potential conflicts. Teachers will need to state a specific and valid reason for a child to be moved. Enrolling New Students All new enrollees will complete the New Student Enrollment Form along with other school enrollment papers. After the completion of the New Student Enrollment Form the Principal shall assign students enrolling on the first day of school and during the school year to the age appropriate teacher having the fewest number of students taking into consideration the above placement criteria. When teachers have the same number of students new enrollees will be placed on a rotating basis. SY 2015-2016 © 2015 Advance Education, Inc.

Page 85 KDE Comprehensive School Improvement Plan Tilden Hogge Elementary School Until the single grade classroom reaches cap size, no new students will be placed in a split classroom. All decisions on placement of students is at the principal's discretion. Placement: How is data used to make student assignment decisions to ensure low income, minority, Limited English Proficient and Exceptional Children and Youth are not assigned to inexperienced, ineffective or out-of-field teachers more often than their AF T peers? Previous teacher and administration conduct a review of assessment data and demographic information. The goal of these placement meetings are to divide students needs equally for all upcoming classrooms. Students are group in high, medium, and low achievement. Students are equally divided by gender and specific learning/behavioral needs. These divisions are made with equal class structures in mind for all classrooms. Recruitment and Retention: How does the school analyze student level data to design targeted recruitment of effective and diverse teachers? When student data is analyzed instructional strengths and weaknesses are identified and root causes investigated. If the instructor's level of effectiveness is a root cause changes are made to ensure teachers are teaching students content that are strengths by moving teachers to DR different grade levels, hiring teachers with strengths in that content, or departmentalizing. Recruitment and Retention: How does the school recruit teachers who are effective in implementing practices that are targeted to support the diverse learning needs of minority students, low income students, Limited English Proficient and Exceptional Children and Youth? T.H.E.S. has recently hired 50% new teachers in the past three years. During each of these hires questions were asked and data reviewed from candidates to determine which candidate has the most effective instructional practices to teach minority students, low income students, and exceptional children. All new hires have brought years of experience in this areas or hold multiple degrees to allow them to have a diverse set of tools to provide instruction to all students based on their needs. Recruitment and Retention: How does the school retain effective teachers? Identify any incentives. The school hires teachers who express a desire to teach at the school for future years. In addition teachers are included in school level decisions during committee meetings, respected, and celebrated. Teacher leaders are asked to contribute to school wide initiatives.
