address specific needs of the economically disadvantaged sub-population to
ensure that high yield instructional strategies are reflected in lesson plans and

been implemented. Increased use of high yield instructional strategies will
continue to be a focus at Greenbrier High School. CWT data showed that an
excessive amount of classroom instruction included lecture as as the main
instructional strategy. Classroom walk through data will continue to be a

PROGRAM EVALUATION: Teachers will implement interim assessments
quarterly to formatively assess progress in Biology, Geometry, Algebra II,
and Literacy. 2014-2015 will be the baseline year for this interim assessment
data and the PARCC assessments. The previous interim assessment program
revealed systematic growth in student achievement throughout the year.
There was a high correlation between the previous PCG data and the GHS
11th grade Literacy scores. The PCG post test data revealed a deficiency in
growth (-3.6) for 10th grade Literacy. The areas of identified weakness
included grammar, drawing inferences from passages, analyzing point of
view and author’s use of figures of speech, word choice, tone and voice.
These areas will be targeted for professional development during weekly
team meetings. Teachers will collaborate to create common instructional
plans for shared courses, administer common assessments formatted to the
individual course objectives and End of Course Exam(s) for Biology, the
PARCC ELA PBA and EOY assessments, and the Geometry and Algebra II
PBA and EOY assessments. Furthermore, this collaboration will provide
