2014-2015 Croft Community School Improvement Plan Report

Croft Community School Profile

Current staffing for Croft Community includes twenty-seven general education classrooms and three Specialized Academic Curriculum (SAC) classes. Twelve teacher/EC assistants provide instructional support for our students. Other specialized staff includes: one Music, Art, Physical Education, Media Specialist and Technology teacher. Support staff includes: one part-time School Psychologist, one full-time Speech Pathologist, one part time Speech Pathologist, one full-time School Counselor, three Exceptional Children Resource teachers, one Academic Facilitator and a Dean of Students.

The School is using The Basic School framework for school renewal as its guiding philosophy. The Basic School began as a research project in the mid 1990’s under the direction of the then president of the Carnegie Foundation, Dr. Ernest Boyer. The Basic School’s overarching goal is to strengthen elementary education by bringing together key components of a quality education under four key priorities: The School as Community, A Curriculum with Coherence, A Climate for Learning, and A Commitment to Character.

7


The School as Community

The Basic School is a place where everyone comes together to promote learning. Teachers are viewed as leaders with the principal as lead teacher and parents are viewed as the child’s first and most important teachers. Parents and teachers work together to make decisions about issues such as student achievement, school improvement initiatives, special programs and events. As part of our commitment to the partnership, parents, teachers, and students meet for a “get to know you” conference and sign a “Covenant of Learning” which defines how each will work together.

A Curriculum with Coherence

In The Basic School, literacy is the first and most essential goal. Literacy is defined broadly to include mathematics and the arts. All students are expected to become proficient in all literacy skills as these are the foundational tools from which all learning takes place. Students become well informed in the disciplines of mathematics, science and history by integrating content to enhance meaningful connections across disciplines.

8

2014-2015 Croft Community School Improvement Plan ReportA Climate for Learning

The Basic School is committed to serving the whole child. Beyond building a solid academic program, the school seeks to provide basic health and counseling services as well as special programs to support students’ interests and after school care. Every child is encouraged to become a disciplined, creative and self-motivated learner. The teaching schedule is flexible to promote collaboration among teachers and students. Students receive instruction in a variety of formats and flexible groupings to address academic needs and interests. Learning extends beyond the classroom and students are exposed to a wide variety of educational field trips and experiences to enhance academic growth.

A Commitment to Character

Seven core virtues-honesty; respect, responsibility, compassion, self-discipline, perseverance, and giving are emphasized to promote excellence in living as well as excellence in learning. Through the curriculum, school climate and service, students are encouraged to apply lessons of the classroom to the world around them. The school is also working with the Foundation for Respect-Ability by implementing the Don’t Laugh at Me Lessons as part of our Character Education program.
