1. 2010-2011 Grinnell High School Student Achievement Data

2. Definition of terms AIG: Annual Improvement Goals (Set by the district, must be measurable, approved by the School Improvement Advisory Committee and then by the board) SIAC: School Improvement Advisory Committee (District Employees, Community Members who look at student achievement data and make a recommendation to the board for student achievement goals). AYP: Adequate Yearly Progress (NCLB stair-step model of proficiency) which is reported to the state. Schools must meet AYP or go on a watch list, then become a SINA school

3. District Annual Improvement Goals Decrease the percentage by 50% of non-proficient students in grades 4, 8, and 11 as compared to their matched cohort FAY percentile scores in grades 3, 7, and 10 in reading comprehension and mathematics, and in grade 8 and 11 as compared to their matched cohort FAY percentile scores in grades 7 and 10 in science, as measured by the appropriate ITBS and ITED subtests.

4. GHS Reading Data (AIG) In 2009-10, 23 students were considered non-proficient in Reading Comprehension in the 10 th Grade. 17 of those students improved their percentile ranking as 11 th Graders However, only 12 of the 23 students become proficient. RESULT: Goal to reduce number of non-proficient students by 50% was met by 1 student in Reading Comprehension. IF we look at the same cohort FAY % of student non- proficiency from 09-10 (21.5%) to 10-11 (18.7%), we did not meet the goal.

112. Trends... What did you see that constituted a trend (movement of data in one direction or another?) - From our discussion Tuesday, our faculty noted that Reading Comprehension has lacked focus over the past few years and it would behoove us to review strategies to address this Without gearing our whole professional development for 2011-12 toward ITED scores, what are some very simple things we could be doing in our classes to help improve these numbers? - Looking at some different kinds of strategies to help students read for a purpose, be held accountable to the reading, and simply reading more often for a variety of reasons in class will help students get in the habit of reading more in school and to help them understand that this will be an expectation in all of their classes.

113. Tentative Action Plan for GHS Departments will continue to look at data from ITED to determine what skill areas can be addressed seamlessly within existing curriculum and implement strategies to address deficient skills Reading comprehension strategies will be reviewed and accountability strategies will be introduced to increase the amount of reading done in the content areas GHS faculty will continue to develop and strengthen relationships with students through the Seminar program to reduce the number of unexcused absences and increase average daily attendance

114. 2011-12 District AIG All FAY students in grades 4, 8, and 11 will meet or exceed typical NSS growth on Iowa Testing in math and reading. All FAY students in grades 8 and 11 will meet or exceed typical NSS growth on Iowa Testing in science. The district will develop a common language and process to assist students in goal setting to promote individual growth K-12.
