DATA ANALYSIS: (What part of your needs assessment led you to this

goal?)

Consistent Low student Performance on local and district assessment provided

sufficient data that support a need for emphasis on more targeted instruction,

assessing, and progress monitoring. Targeted and intentional instructional

delivery and assessments is needed to increase motivation and organizational and

study skills, which has been proven to increase student academic performance.

The data also supports a need for more intentional teacher professional

development and coaching.

DATA ANALYSIS: (What part of your needs assessment led you to this goal?)

An analysis of spring reading and math inventories reveal a need for academic

intervention for identified students consistently showing deficiencies in ELA and

math. Spring inventory results indicate 56% of students are not reaching

proficiency in reading and 87% of students are not reaching proficiency in math.

As a result, there exist a great need to provide academic intervention to address the

deficiencies, build fluency in a skill, and encourage students to apply an existing

skills to new concepts.

During the 2018-2019 school year, the percentage of office discipline referrals received for at-risk students identified by the district’s early

warning system will reduce by 10% as measured by the ABE discipline data system. In addition, 50% of the at-risk students identified by the

district’s early warning system will score proficient on the district’s reading and math universal screener.

Tool


Based on the data analysis of our ODRs, some students not meeting proficiency on reading

and math inventories display typical behaviors that cause conflict among their social group.

The use of a mentoring group is needed to address these students’ academic, behavioral and

social growth. The implementation of mentoring groups will improve intervention for non-

proficient students and prevent the need for more intense support.

The reading universal screener data revealed the need for more assistance for female

students overall. The math universal screener data revealed the need for more assistance

school-wide, but the males require even more assistance. Based on the academic and

discipline data, more targeted instruction and more social and emotional learning facilitation

are required to assist all students, specifically at-risk students, achieve academic, behavior,

and social success.

Strategy 7: Increase Parental Involvement SMART GOAL:

During the 2018-2019 school year, parent participation will increase by 10% for major event from the 2017-2018 school year numbers.

80.8% of students are satisfied with school-home relations

68.9% of parents are satisfied with school-home relations

36.4% of parents are satisfied with school-home relations

School Survey


The number of parent participation has fluctuated throughout the year. The number of

parents in attendance to school events dropped during the second and third quarters. There

has been attempts by Alcorn to attract more attendees by offering families dinner and a

variety of meeting times. To increase parental involvement and the visibility of parents at

Alcorn, we will work collaboratively with parents and Alcorn Middle’s family and

community liaisons to seek innovative ways to go into the community and have parents

come to us. Parents who are currently involved will be asked to assist in these efforts.
