SCHOOL VISION: To provide a safe and productive learning environment where all students will be engaged in relevant and rigorous coursework to prepare them to be productive citizens.
To reach exemplary status as a campus.
GOAL: Offer a recovery school to help lower the
number of failing students in Geometry.

So far, the results of the school seem
positive. Some of the students were
able to regain credit that they had lost.
We will try this again next year with a few modifications.
|
Offered recovery school once a week for eight weeks
with a one week break in between.
|
Collaborative meetings with team, inter-departments,
administrators, and inter-schools.
Teacher investigation to submit students into
program based off of grades & behavioral expectations.
Evaluation of data at the end of the program- how
many students were successful? How many
dropped out?

One year from the start of the project to the end of
the compilation of data.
|
Evaluation of data – how many students were failing
certain six weeks period and then regained credit for that six weeks at
completion of school?
|
We will be more specific on behavior expectatons –
some of the students were dropped during the program.
We will be more specific on expectations. Some of the students thought that just by
attending they would be regaining credit.
The students were expected to work.
We will form some kind of contract- the students who truly wanted to be there
and wanted to regain credit were the most successful.

Jenny, the plan looks good, but difficult to read in this format--I think it might be the background. I like the idea or your program--but can't read your revisions and assessment part. Was the program successful? For what percentage of the students?
ReplyDeleteJoyce, thank you for the feedback! I had a lot of trouble using the SIMS template recommended in the assignment. I will try to adjust the background of the blog to make it easier to view. In answer to your questions: in my eyes, the program was a success. Students who stayed in the program were able to regain six weeks credit so they are now passing the subject of Geometry. All successes can't be evaluated at this point. (The school year isn't over, and I'd also like to see if these students are successful on the EOC given this month.) Wouldn't that be awesome if this helps the participants pass the state test too?
DeleteJenny,
ReplyDeleteI think your implementation plan needs to be more specific about what will happen when. It is a bit difficult for me to follow what you plan to do to improve achievement. What are the specific strategies/interventions that you plan to implement and/or the process you will use to determine what that looks like.
Thanks,
Dr. Mason
