Describe all intervention strategies employed by the school to improve the academic performance of students identified by the early warning system.

Coral Springs High school uses various intervention strategies to improve student performance based on the need of the student.  CSHS provides afterschool tutoring from NHS, Mu Alpha Theta, and Spanish Honor Society.  There are also a variety of online resources students can use including, but not limited to Vocabulary.com, Khan Academy, NewsELA, Naviance, Achieve 3000, USATest Prep, Algebra Nation, and Geometry Nation.  Common Formative Assessments are used to monitor student performance on state standards based on subject.  Students are given enrichment activities or remediation based on the results of the Common Formative Assessment.  Math and science teacher push in and pull out in classrooms for struggling students. Seniors in danger of not graduating are given a teacher mentor to monitor thier grades and attendance.  These teachers help and encourgae the studnts and get them back on tradk.

BEST PRACTICE #4

Scaling Up BEST Practices

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

School improvement is based on a continuous improvement model, using research-based accepted best practices, which align with student achievement needs, insure student progress, and may be revised when appropriate.

 

Goals

As evidenced in the SES Band Data, which content area(s) will be the focus for improving student achievement and why was this area chosen?

As evidenced in the SES Band Data, our goal is to increase from 50% to 60% (10%)  in 10th grade Reading FSA by May, 2019. We will implement online programs such as USA Testprep and Khan Academy in addition to data-enhanced grade level/subject area PLCs, lesson studies, and PD.  This will be monitored by Mrs. Brown (English/Reading AP), Mrs. Brodie (Dept. Head), and Anita Parsoton (Literacy Coach). We will be collecting and reviewing data from the online programs, collecting data and strategies using the CARE process monthly with our PLCs and teachers will attend scheduled PD meetings during their planning period. The Social Studies Department will also support the English Department by implementing NewsELA monthly.   Social Studies teachers will focus on the English standard students are weakest in based on data from common assessments.

 

What specific BEST Practice(s) will be implemented or scaled-up to improve teaching and learning in order to increase performance within the SES Band?

Data-enhanced and Authentic PLCs will be scaled up to improve teaching and learning in order to increase performance in our SES band.

 

Describe in detail how the BEST Practice(s) will be scaled-up.

PLSs for 9th – 12th grade teachers will meet once a month on scheduled Professional Study Days to work collaboratively on lesson and activities that will enhance student performance in all areas of academia.  All PLCs are data-driven and reflect of teaching practices based on outcomes vs. intended outcomes. Additionally, all teachers have a common planning period based on their content area. This provides additional time for teachers to engage in collaborative discussions to created engaging lessons and activities for students.

 

What specific school-level progress monitoring data is collected and how often?

Teachers in all departments give common assessments monthly and analyze the data during PLCs.  The Biology teachers use USA Test Prep and Data Nuggets. The English and Social Studies Department uses NewsELA monthly and gather and discuss data monthly.

 

How does the school ensure the fidelity of students not progressing towards school and district goals?

In math, biology, and English Coral Springs High School provides push in and pull out services by the Reading Coach, math teachers, and biology teachers.  There are also after school tutoring offered for each subject. These students are monitored through their math, English, or biology class monthly through common assessments.  Students and teachers should see an increase in student achievement.

 

How does the school ensure Tier 1 Standards-Based classroom instruction is being implemented properly and effectively?

In math, biology, and English Coral Springs High School provides push in and pull out services by the Reading Coach, math teachers, and biology teachers.  There are also after school tutoring offered for each subject. These students are monitored through their math, English, or biology class monthly through common assessments.  Students and teachers should see an increase in student achievement.

 

Describe texts used for core, supplemental, and intervention programs at each grade level. How does the school ensure students have access to a balance of literary and informational text in a variety of mediums?

All students are in an English class tht uses Collections series.  Students recieve textbooks and can also access the material online.   Students also have access to NewsELA  (online) through Science and Social Studies classes.

 

Please complete this section based on 2018-2019 end-of-year results.
Instructional Implications: Discuss the success of specific strategies/activities and provide a rationale as to why those academic improvements occurred as a result of those strategies.

We did not meet our expected goals for this year.  Our ELA scores decreased by 2% and our Algebra I and Geometry scores both decreased by 2%.  We will continue to use the strategies set in our goals becasue in previous years we were increasing our scores. 

  1. School-Wide Literacy Plan: Every course participates in this blueprint for improving student achievement.  Teachers use NewsELA (English, Social Studies, Science), and Khan Academy (English and Biology) to supplement thier teaching.  Teachers reflect on the data about student performance, literacy needs and expectations in their reflection on student work and adjust thier teaching as necessary. 
  2.  Data Teams: Coral Springs High School has continued to use data to drive instruction to improve not only student performance but also instructional practices. Teachers reflect on standards and formative and summative data to inform their next steps. By reviewing formative data and steps, teachers are able to narrow down the areas of needed improvement. As a result, student mastery of skills is continuously improved.
  3.  PLCs:  All grade levle PLCs meet on scheduled PSDs to work collaboratively on lessons and activities that will enhance student performance in all areas of academia.  All PLCs are data-driven and reflect on teaching practices based on outcomes vs. intended outcomes. As a result, student proficiency of skills are continuously improved.  Teachers in all departments also have a common planning period every other day which allows for collegiate conversation to support teachers and student achievement.
