Grade

In English 4, the rate of growth is increasing for the past two six weeks.
In science, we are above our goal in grades 9, 10, and 11 for 3 rd six weeks. Ninety-percent of the students in grade 10 (Integrated Science IB) had met
standards (apprentice, proficient, and distinguished for 3 rd six weeks).
In Civics, the percentage of students scoring proficient/distinguished is above the goal for the 2 nd six weeks.
Algebra 2 students continue to meet the goal each six weeks.
In all content areas, there was a significant decrease in novices.
4. What are the Opportunities for Improvement?
English 1 has the smallest percentage of students meeting benchmark.
In science and Civics, we need to improve reading comprehension. Although we have seen some improvement on the lengthier multiple choice
questions and constructed response questions, a few students are struggling.
Algebra 1 and Geometry have a minimum number of students meeting all three benchmarks for each of the assessments.
In all content areas, decrease apprentices and increase proficient/distinguished.
5. What are our next steps?
Individualized interventions for all 9 th graders will take place using study island during instruction. Students targeted for Friday intervention will
continue their skills practice. Growth will be tracked through Study Island to determine effectiveness.
In science, students in grade 11 will continue to take timed practice EOC exams every Tuesday. These practice exams will be scored in class and
students will be tracked (red, yellow, and green) on their performance to measure growth. Students will also be re-grouped, for standard recovery,
after each proficiency assessment. Photosynthesis and respiration will be retaught and assessed again to measure growth on these standards. All
students who are taking science will continue taking weekly common formative assessments (CFAs). The results from these CFAs will be tracked
(red, yellow, and green) and will determine which students will be referred for intervention (either after-school (HIP) or in-school (intervention
period)).
All content area students will be annotating lengthy multiple choice questions, constructed response questions, and reading passages to improve their
reading comprehension. PLCs will be using pre and post-data to analyze student growth on a school-wide annotation rubric.
All students who are taking Civics will continue taking weekly common formative assessments (CFAs). The results from these CFAs will be tracked
and will determine which students will be referred for intervention (either after-school (HIP) or in-school (intervention period).
Algebra 1 and Geometry will need to use Cycle Protocols to analyze their results and make adjustments based on the data when using common
formative assessments and proficiency exams.
In all content areas, students who scored apprentice will have the opportunity to move to proficient/distinguished through HIP, regrouping,
lunch and learns, and intervention. Students will be given a pre- and post-assessment to measure growth.
