Program Evaluation Planning and Reporting Program: FY: Planning Goal and Fund Source(s) Short Name Goals 1 – 3: Increase Reading Achievement Key Strategies/ Actions (from eCIP) Strategies: Reading Comprehension, Selected Strategies from Response to Instruction Action: Direct, Explicit Instruction Based on Assessment of Academic Performance, Increase the Amount of Independent Reading (Quantity and Quality), Problem-Solving Teams Reporting Performance Measurements (from eCIP) (Short-term, intermediate, longterm impacts – as appropriate) All general education and special education teachers will implement direct, explicit instruction. Benchmark Assessments (DCA, EQT, ARMT, Accelerated Reader, Teacher-Created Assessments that Include Open-Ended Questions) will be systematically gathered, analyzed, and reported to monitor progress towards attaining goals. All general education and special education teachers will provide a designated time for independent reading. Data will be systematically gathered, analyzed, and reported in PST meetings to monitor progress towards attaining student, classroom, and school goals. Progress will be monitored in monthly and Impacts; Data Supporting Impacts Impacts: Reading Achievement has Increased on STAR Reading and on the AMRT+. The ARMT+ proficiency index for the “All Students” group was 10.84. The lowest subgroup proficiency index was “Special Education” with a proficiency index of 2.84. Every subgroup met the proficiency goals. Data: Teacher Walkthroughs, Accelerated Reader Reports, End of Quarter Test Scores, District Common Assessment Scores Goals 4 – 6: Increase Math Achievement Strategies: Math Procedures and Problem-Solving, Action: Plan and Implement Strategic Teaching Components in All Math Classes, Use a Variety of Formative and Summative Assessment Types Throughout Units of Study quarterly PST meetings. The progress and success of all students will be charted and displayed in collaborative PST meetings. All general education and special education teachers will focus on complete numeric and geometric patterns and on solving addition and subtraction problems including word problems and data analysis. Benchmark Assessments (AMP, EQT, ARMT, Teacher-Created Assessments that Include Open-Ended Questions) will be systematically gathered, analyzed, and reported to monitor progress towards attaining goals. Teachers will participate in collaborative grade level meetings to analyze assessments and other test data monthly. All general education and special education teachers will focus on open-ended questions and computation of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Benchmark assessments (Open-ended Impacts: The ARMT+ proficiency index for the “All Students” group was 15.31. The lowest subgroup proficiency index was “Special Education” with a proficiency index of 9.43. Every subgroup met the proficiency goals. Data: Teacher Walkthroughs, Accelerated Reader Reports, End of Quarter Test Scores, District Common Assessment Scores Goal 7: Increase Science Achievement Strategies: Standards Analysis Action: Formation of Academic Success Team for Science, Collaboration Among GradeLevels and/or Students questions) will be systematically gathered, analyzed, and reported to monitor progress towards attaining goals. All Grade 4 and special education teachers will participate in collaborative grade level meetings to analyze assessments and other test data monthly. All teachers will utilize the science laboratory for the purpose of hands-on instruction. All teachers will implement collaboration in the classroom and science laboratory. Impacts: Science Achievement has Increased Data: Teacher Walkthroughs, Accelerated Reader Reports, End of Quarter Test Scores, District Common Assessment Scores
