School Context and Organization

School Context and Organization Summary

At Heritage Elementary, we have an aligned mission, vision, and values that drive organizational decisions. We continue to hold high expectations forourselves and promote positive, collaborative relationships with staff, students, and families. We have developed a Master Schedule to maximize instructionand provide Flex Time for student interventions. We have improved flow-thru lane signage and parking lot markings. A staff and parent handbook has beendeveloped. Teachers are provided opportunities for collaboration and feedback. We also added a “Process Detectors” Action Team to help revise anddevelop better systems and processes.

Remind 101 is used for staff reminders and School Messenger more fully utilized for school-wide parent communication. 86% of staff surveyed feel thatteachers work together to ensure student success and 100% agree that the principal makes decisions that are in the best interest of students. 84% of staffmembers feel that administrators encourage teacher involvement in decision-making and 95% responded that they understand what the principal expects ofteachers.

Technology

Technology Summary

Technology is an important tool for integrating the 21st Century Skills that students will need in the future. We have several tools available to classroomteachers, including: iPads (purchased in 2017 Fall Semester for grades K-2, with plans to add more at upper levels), laptops, classroom computers, andChromebooks. Many teachers utilize technology in the classroom on a daily basis and several have written grants for their own technology needs. Ourlibrarian advocates the Hour of Code and utilizes a variety of technology tools for Makerspace activities. Technology is being integrated in core contentareas. The tools most often used are digital cameras, internet, digital streaming, multi-media presentations, document cameras, and skills-based instructionalprograms and apps.

According to our Campus Climate Survey, 69% of parents rated the overall quality of our digital learning environment as Good to Excellent, while only 59%of staff agree. Feedback from teachers suggest that their overall knowledge of technology is strong and teachers are willing to learn. However, there isfrustration in the limited amount of technology available and the outdated/broken technology is salvaged each year, yet not replaced. According to a staffTechnology Survey, 78.5% of technology devices are fully functional. Teachers indicated that they welcome an increase in technology tools for either theyor their students to complete their work effectively and efficiently. Suggestions included: more laptops/iPads for students, SmartBoards, updated computerlab/computer lab teacher.

Technology Strengths

Teachers’ knowledge and willingness to integrate technology into classroom instructionLibrarian support for Hour of Code, Media Club, & Maker Space ActivitiesTeacher innovation in writing grants for classroom technology devices

Problem Statements Identifying Technology Needs

Problem Statement 1: Campus technology is limited. There are not enough devices for students to use and teacher training in integration is limited.

Title I

Schoolwide Program Plan

Heritage’s strategic campus improvement plan focuses on the ten components for Title 1 schools, with a focus on academic progress of students in the corecontent areas of math, reading, and writing. Professional Learning Communities (PLC’s) are in place and Vertical Alignment Teams for each area will be inplace to support the required components with staff being a part of the data analysis and disaggregation of each components. As a campus team, we divideresponsibilities for the CNA, action steps, and data collection to show growth and progress towards the goal based on the CNA conducted prior to currentschool year. We have supported our teachers in creating professional goals that align from our campus goals to ensure a targeted focus on a campus-wideincrease in the percentage of students making one year’s growth in these three core areas. This model allows for staff members to track students’ growththroughout the year and empowers staff to make decisions for the campus, implement the plan, gather data, and measure success of their individual goals andsteps.

Ten Schoolwide Components

1: Comprehensive Needs Assessment

A Comprehensive Needs Assessment was conducted in May of the preceding school year by the Heritage Staff along with outgoing and incoming CampusAdministrators. We worked collaboratively and used multiple sources of State, district, and campus data to identify campus challenges.

2: Schoolwide Reform Strategies

This year Heritage will emphasize alignment with our district’s curriculum framework, utilizing the VESTED instructional framework for Math, the LucyCalkins’ Units of Study curriculum for Writing and Reading, and using the Fountas & Pinnell aligned, research-based assessment and curriculum for readingintervention. Our campus’ ELA & Math instructional coaches, along with our district ELA coordinator and Fountas & Pinnell trainer have offered guidanceand coaching with these aligned materials. Campus Administration and the Campus Coach joins teams during their planning sessions to offer support andguidance throughout the process. Another reform strategy we have this year is data analysis and instructional planning based on the results of commonassessments. Grade levels conduct a root cause analysis/item analysis and develop a plan to support deficit areas in their grade level. Teams also review thevariance in results between the district and our campus as well as our campus vs. classes and create a plan for supporting all students in the grade level. Thisplan is implemented for the next six weeks and progress/growth is measured to ensure the action plan is working. Beginning in the 3rd six week gradingperiod, all grade levels will meet with the campus administration to share their data and the action plan they have developed. Also at that time, we will set theexpectation that every student will have a data folder that they use to track their progress in reading and math while setting personal goals. We added thecomponent of effort vs. achievement tracking for students this year along with students writing smart goals and action steps to achieve their goals. Studentswill conference with teachers about their assessment results to discuss their individual progress in growth, effort, and then set goals and plans for the next sixweeks.
