Stakeholder Input
The Lakeland Hills SIP team first formed in the 2006-7 school year when the building opened
and began our first SIP plan. The SIP team has met each year to provide leadership in the
building to accomplish the plans set in place by each of the two previous plans and is currently
providing leadership to finish the third and final year of our 2011-14 plan.
SIP Template

In the fall of 2013 the Lakeland Hills SIP team added a new member due to a retirement and
began meeting to begin the next full revision of our SIP plan for the next three years. The team
has fully participated in the process that the Auburn School District has provided. This includes
attendance at all of the district fully revised SIP sessions as follows:
September 2013 Full Day Training Session #1
October 2013 Full Day Training Session #2
December 2013 Full Day Training Session #3
January 2014 Full Day Training Session #4
February 2014 Full Day Training Session #5
March 2014 Full Day Training Session #6
April 2014 Full Day Training Session #7
May 2014 Full Day School Session #8
In addition to meeting with the SIP Team on the above dates, the team has met with the whole
staff during staff meetings and other in-services as well as 7 hours dedicated solely to the fully
revised SIP process in the 2013-14 school year. All of these meetings supported the work to
overview the fully revised SIP process for this cycle, review data, adjust mission and vision
statements, write narrative statements on the data, prioritize challenge narrative statements,
identify strategies and implementation timelines for the fully revised SIP process.
The work in this document reflects the leadership and the innovation of the SIP team to guide the
larger staff in the creation of our next three year SIP plan to address our areas of
underperformance and continue the areas where great success has been found. The staff has
been given updates, opportunities for feedback and suggestions throughout the process. As a
result, the plan laid forth has staff buy-in and will allow this to be a living document that will
guide our work over the next three years.

Discipline and Attendance Analysis
After reflecting on our building’s discipline and attendance history, as well as staff
perceptions around discipline and attendance, it was decided by the staff, including
the SIP team that there was not a need to do an in -depth analysis of our attendance
or discipline data as this is a real area of strength for Lakeland Hills.
The process we have in place for managing students through positive means as wel l
as clear behavioral expectations and consequences for students choosing not to
follow rules are more than adequate.
Attendance is monitored every two weeks by an administrator and counselor.
Families are contacted as soon as their absence or tardies exceed 10% by the
counselor and then have a conference scheduled when their absences or tardies
exceed 15% by an administrator or when they have 2 or more unexcused absences.
These measures have been successful in both behavioral and attendance areas and
the staff decided that spending more time looking in -depth at this data was not
necessary and that a more focused look at the reading and math data was the
priority for the Lakeland Hills School Improvement Plan revision process.

Assessment Decisions
Assessments at Lakeland Hills Elementary School drive the instructional decisions that are made daily, weekly monthly a nd yearly. The staff has spent considerable time the past five years creating a variety of formative and summative assessments, combined with utilizing district and state benchmark assessments and summative to provide information to reach all students and accelerate their learning. Formative and summative assessment results are shared with families and translated into Spanish and Ukrainian in addition to English. The following is an overview of those assessments:
1. Formative: a. Math PE/CCSS Standards formative assessments – 7-10 question
assessments to provide information to students and teachers about the students’ currently level of understanding. This occurs after every standard is done being taught and practiced (typically 3-7 days). Results are recorded on an Excel spreadsheet and are the topic of conversation at weekly PLC discussions for further instructional or acceleration decisions.
b. Reading Comprehension Targets formative assessments - 7-10 question assessments to provide information to students and teachers about the students’ currently level of proficiency at using the identified 11 comprehension targets assigned for that grade level (K has 4 targets, GR1 has 5 targets, GR2 has 6 targets, GR3-5 have all 11 targets). This occurs after every target is done being taught and practiced (depending on grade level every 2 weeks to 2 months). Results are recorded on an Excel spreadsheet and are the topic of conversation at the PLC discussions following the assessment for further instructional or acceleration decisions. A complete review cycle going over a second time each of the grade level’s assigned targets before state testing (GR3-5)or the end of the year (GR K-2).
c. DIBELS Progress monitoring for reading fluency is done monthly, recorded on an Excel spreadsheet and discussed at PLC meetings following each cycle.
2. Summative: a. End of Unit assessments in mathematics are used with students in each grade
level to provide more summative results regarding students’ proficiency with the mathematics skills.
b. DIBELS benchmark testing is completed in September, January and June for all students in GRK-5.
c. MAPs Testing in Reading and Mathematics is completed in September, January and June for all students in GR 2-5.

Questions:
SIP Template
13 | P a g e 1 1 / 1 9 / 2 0 1 3
Kindergarten
o What happened in 2012 with the 0 in special ed?
o Missing info: did some kids come in the middle of the year and skew our data at the
end of the year?
GR4 - It would be interesting to know how many ELL Students were in 2012 versus the
2 in 2013.
Data Analysis- MAPs
MAPs data was reviewed by the SIP team and the data was very similar in profile to the
MSP data with the exception of having GR2 data whereas there is no GR2 data for MSP.
However, since 2013-14 was the first year using MAPs at GR2 there was no trend data to
analyze for consideration. Overall the trends in the MAPs data showed students that were
ELL, LAP and SPED achieved significantly lower than their peers. The trend also showed
similar discrepancies in achievement in ethnic categories that mirrored the MSP trends.

Data Analysis- WELPA
The data from the WLPTII was reviewed with the ELL teacher and showed the same trends
that the SIP team observed about the performance of the ELL students on the other
measures closely reviewed by the SIP team and the staff in the data carousel activities. ELL
is a group that is underperforming and is a target for strategies and action in this new plan.

16 | P a g e 1 1 / 1 9 / 2 0 1 3
Parents:
The CEE data from 2008, 2010 and 2012 was reviewed by the SIP team. It was observed that the staff, parents and students continue to think highly of the school. The trends across all 9 areas are either at or exceeding the results from the previous years and still outperform the comparison with the top performing schools profile provided by CEE. It was observed that a connection with families of ethnic diversity is an area that is needed and is targeted in this plan in the action plan/strategies to increase our effectiveness in this area.

Overall:
o The Hispanic population is consistently lower in every grade level in every subject
in all areas, with the exception of 2013 Hispanic writing scores exceeded the all
group…(with few exceptions)
o Low income students MSP reading scores declined in grades 3, 4, and 5 from 2012
to 2013.
Questions: GR3
o It is interesting to note that our Hispanic math scores follow the state trend for all
years of 2010-11-12-13. Would it be helpful to look at the state scores for Hispanics
when making comparisons to put Hispanic students into better perspective?
GR5 - How many Asian and Hispanic students are we talking about? Do the number of
students at each grade level skew the data (meaning a larger population would provide
more accurate data)
Did the exit info for ELL change at some point and impact the scores?
We would like to see the same class lined up on the same graph, example: 3rd grade
math 2011 then those same kids as 4th graders and 5th graders to show the class trends
with the same students.

Rationale for SMART Goals:
LLH Math MSP Executive Summary: The percent of all students meeting/exceeding standard at each grade level for the years 2007 to 2013 were reviewed in comparison to the performance of the subgroups of Low Income, ELL, Hispanic and SPED for the same years. The percent of Lakeland Hills students meeting/exceeding standard in each subgroup was compared to the success of all students. Strengths:
The percent of all Lakeland Hills students meeting/exceeding standard at each grade level has increased from 2007 to 2013 (GR3 80.2% to 87.8%, GR4 73% to 85.1%, GR5 65.8% to 89%).
Challenge: There is a consistent and significant achievement gap between the performance of all students and the performance of the subgroups of Low Income, ELL, Hispanic and SPED. LLH DIBELS Executive Summary: The percent of all students meeting/exceeding benchmark at each grade level for the years 2011 through 2013 were reviewed in comparison to the subgroups of Ethnicity (Asian, White, Hispanic), ELL and SPED performance on the DIBELS assessment. Strength: Students in all grade levels increase their reading fluency from fall to spring every year. Challenges:
From 2012 to 2013 grades K-1 and 3-5 performance of all students meeting/exceeding benchmark on DIBELS decreased between 2-5%.
Cohort data reveals a pattern of decreased levels of achievement from GR2-4 for the years 2011-2013. Disaggregation of the data by ethnicity, SPED and ELL indicates a gap in attaining benchmark in comparison to all students.
The number of 2011 GR2 Hispanic subgroup cohort meeting/exceeding benchmark decreased from 2nd to 4th grade (85.7% in 2011 64.3% in 2012 to 52.9% in 2013).
LLH Reading MSP Executive Summary: The percent of all students meeting/exceeding standard at each grade level for the years 2008 through 2013 were reviewed by subgroups (program and ethnicity). The percent of Lakeland Hills students meeting/exceeding standard in each subgroup was compared to the success of all students. Strength:
The percent of all Lakeland Hills students meeting/exceeding standard at each grade level has increased from 2008 to 2013 (GR3 80.2% to 88.6%, GR4 89.9% to 91.5%, GR5 79.6% to 86.9%).
