Goals:
75% of students will meet or exceed expected growth on the Reading Inventory (RI) during the current school year.
60% of students will meet or exceed expected growth on the Math Inventory (MI) during the current school year.
On a monthly basis, at least 95% of students will be recognized through our school-wide positive behavior intervention system.
- 100% of students were recognized in August
Student connectivity and wellness will increase as measured by improved scores from the pre and post wellness survey through the implementation of the after-school program, counseling supports, and lessons in homeroom on Portrait of a Graduate.
Focusing on growth allows us to meet the needs of each individual student and meet students where they are at and encourage them to grow.
State is revising the process/procedures.
