  7. Each Building’s Initial Plan… “The most effective leaders use practice as their fertile learning ground…they try to figure out what’s working and what could be working better…the best ideas are potentially right under our noses…we need to start with our own work.” Michael Fullan “Ask not what your teammates can do for you. Ask what you can do for your teammates.” Magic Johnson

  8. Chestnut Street School • Continue to pursue the goal of 100 sight words, “C” reading level, and developmentally appropriate writing for all students. • Align math curriculum to the Common Core and a workshop model. • Pursue professional learning opportunities to educate the whole student.

  9. Cornwell Avenue School • Building grade level meetings will be restructured to encourage vertical dialog among grade levels (1/2, 3/4/5) and will include support staff (ESL, reading). • Morning professional periods will be utilized for grade level teams to work on various FOCUSED concerns. Topics and work to be covered will be mutually agreed upon by the building principal and grade level teachers at our monthly staff meetings. • At the outset of the year, classroom teachers and service providers in Grades 3-5 will review and analyze data results from the NYS assessments and use the information for individual goal setting. Goals will be documented and discussed individually with the building principal. • Primary AIS reading, ESL, and special education support will be re-structured from a pull-out model to a push-in model wherever feasible. • Grade level meeting schedule will be re-structured to give teachers time to meet with grade level colleagues to collaborate on lesson planning, units of study, and grade level assessments.

George Washington School • Data team will be established to continually interpret data and inform instruction – meeting a minimum of twice a month • Parent-Principal Newsletter will be authored throughout the year focusing on helpful hints on how parents can support instructional goals • Vertical grade level meetings will be held in addition to the individual grade level meetings being held each month • Instructional Support Team members will be present at grade level meetings to emphasize successful practices in the areas of ESL and Special Education • The professional staff will be asked to develop individual personal and professional goals in line with the findings of the data

  11. WH Middle School • Assessment results will be distributed to teachers; faculty and grade level meetings will be used to develop/critique classroom strategies to improve student achievement. • Directors’ meetings will be used to analyze assessment results and set instructional goals. • Quarterly grades will be utilized to identify performance trends. • Strategies will be implemented to improve skill levels in Critical Writing Labs and Math Labs. • Study Island will be used to reinforce testing language and question format of ELA and Math Assessments on all grade levels
