001PM we'll begin with roll call Juan centes sa Olivas Jennifer nurel J Martinez Amy Engel is there any public comment no public comment okay that brings us right to the first presentation and that is the Roland School Improvement plan presenting on behalf of their school our Dr Juan Corona principal and Miss Stephanie SCH messing assistant principal good evening my name is um Dr Juan Corona I'm excited to be here this is my first time up um so I'm excited um with me is the amazing Miss Stephanie schmeing um we are excited to be here uh a lot of great things are happening at Rollins so I'm happy to share with you um for this uh school year uh we had 55 of our students um meet on the math uh NWA math uh assessment for
002math 41.6 met for our English reading and 44.9 met for the growth Target in Spanish reading um we uh made a um average daily attendance of 92% this year here we go I'll be talking about our attendance um our attendance goal was to maintain an average daily average daily attendance rate of 95% and we hit at 92% this year um our plans for next year to kind of continue the good things that we were doing that we were seeing um have positive effect so we want to continue to utilize attendance data to drive decision-making and determine what individual support students and families need we want to increase meaningful daily communication with these families to figure out how we can problem solve getting the kids in the building what's the block what can we do how
003can we help um and as far as ways to celebrate the kids that are there every day and doing great things we want to continue with our quarterly celebrations and grade level competitions to kind of keep it fun this one too as far as social emotional learning our goal was to have a reduction of 10% of our office discipline referrals specifically focusing on reducing referrals for our children with disabilities um with our regular office referrals we came close to hitting that Mark but we did meet that with our children with disabilities so that was a big win for us to make sure that those IEP kids are getting the supports that they need and then we're able to provide them with the structures andal that they need to succeed um as far as our action
004steps moving forward we want to make sure that every student is using uh the Second Step curriculum they're getting that every day with Fidelity from their teachers and we feel that the more that that's implemented and the more they have access to that the better off they'll be Behavior Le social emotionally all of it will come together for us we're going to continue with our schoolwide assemblies and teaching and reviewing Behavior expectations and continue with our fun challenges based on the data figuring out which which goal you want to work towards every month and kind of playing it with the kids to kind of challenge them to do better um we focus on both of these things off uh with our parent coffees as well the attendance and theal kind of bringing parents into the
005loop and helping them understand what we're doing why it's important why they should care things like that and one of the things I want to point out um here is uh our students participating in extracurriculars we did have a third place finish for softball second place for soccer um then first place for volleyball and then our defending cheerleading Champions won again so we're very excited that the students are participating they're involved um wonderful coaches so we're excited to continue that uh as well for next year okay all right another goal for us was uh by February of 2024 that 60% of rollin's elementary students will meet or exceed their expected growth Target in both reading and math as measured by the map assessment we came in very close with math we were at 55% and
006our combined reading for Spanish and English was at 43% um our Spanish was higher so we're excited that our dual language program students are uh exhibiting those St strong Spanish language skills um very excited third grade did a wonderful job so we want to continue that momentum as we roll up to fourth grade with dual language um we want to continue again to uh Monitor and review data um in our teams our ilt SLT teams uh we want uh teacher implementation of research based strategies that support students academic language proficiency growth um this year uh we had 21 students exit on access which is fantastic we're excited that again our students are displaying um their language uh growth targets um I ALS we also want to monitor student data to gauge student progress and we
007want to start this uh Rollins is Rollins is reading initiative to promote reading for all students I I remember having my teachers instill a passion for reading as a young student so I want to bring that to our students I want to have AC um literacy nice with our parents to coach them on how they can support at home as well um with that uh and do you have any questions for us I do um you know with the percentage for map in math um you know it seems like we're making a a good stride there with 55% um what can we do to kind of you know go along that path with reading um you know because whatever's I mean it's working with math you know I don't know if they're getting extra instruction
008um I just you know I don't know if there's anything extra we can do with with regard to reading just to get it up you know sure uh one of the things that I want to focus on is those um uh parent nights uh specifically literacy night to promote reading um as a uh first generation Mexican-American a lot of the stories that I learned growing up were by word of mouth and I know that that continues today we want to shift the focus we we don't want to lose Traditions but we want to um make sure that the parents have access to books and our reading with their children we did invite at one of our uh coffee with the principal uh meetings we invited the the public library so they came and shared all
009the different resources they have to offer so we want to continue that partnership to promote that literacy I have one more question and this is not for you but I think do we still have like a library on the iPads or the tablets that they use the students of of books do you want me to take that okay sorry um we um have a couple of different options for the kiddos so a lot of those apps that you're referencing were apps that we implemented during uh Co when we were 100% remote and I believe and I look at Andy we still have access to those what I can't guarantee without checking first with principles is whether or not and at what rate we we still push students to use those right so I think it
010may vary by um building but I do know that those subscriptions we did keep up oh okay yeah so I but I don't want that to be misleading and say that we're using it yeah so I don't know you want to answer for Rollins yeah we that's an option for our students to have I think for me I want our our students to handle the book yeah yeah like minimize screen time we feel like they're getting so much screen time so it's a great resource it's great that they have it but we really want books in the hands of all these kids yeah and those particular ones are called um Ras kids PebbleGo andl they they use them for fun so maybe we could pull a report on the use of those um and we
011could pull a report of the on the use of those by building which would be good for this committee since we're spending money on it no I mean I remember my my son specifically used Exel that was one of the apps that he used daily um but that was a while ago so yeah and they are using them in English in Spanish I just got the word so thank [Music] you thank you Jess thank you thank [Applause] you our next presentation is the lunch block proposal and presenting on behalf of East High School is Kevin Martin associate principal for school Improvement hi good evening thank you for uh the privilege of being able to speak with you today I am Kevin Martin I'm one of the associate principles the associate principal for school Improvement at
012East High and this evening I'm going to be speaking to you about our lunch blocks at the high school because we've got some exciting things going on as we transition to a block schedule uh for the 2425 school year so as we began planning for the block schedule we started to have some conversations about what courses would fit well in that time period that we had opposite student lunches next year our students are going to have 42 minute lunches um either preceded by or followed by a six- minute passing period and then a 42-minute period and over the course of those conversations we determine the following courses could fit well in that time uh reading which is going to be offered both During the 42-minute period as well as During the 90-minute period depending on
013each student's individual needs we're going to be expanding our math boost program uh e-learning for credit recovery is going to continue and'll fit nicely in that time period and then computer literacy is a new elective course that I'll be telling you about uh as well as some additional time for our AP Chemistry and AP biology students and then what we're really excited about is the College and Career exploration class um and some things like act preparation uh some mental health supports we're going to build in for students uh and some opportunities for members of the community and the business community in a to come in and speak to our students uh one thing to note is that all of our seniors that are on track the plan for them is that they will be at
014the rec center for the full 90minut period that they would have launch in another course and there's going to be all kinds of things that they're going to be able to do there during that time so this is uh what our schedule is going to look like next year I can get it this is what the bell schedule is going to look like um four 90minut block periods blocks throughout the day and then you can see that our lunch periods which are going to run during second and third period uh as well as the start of fourth period are there so for example uh student may have their lunch during 3A for 42 minutes from 1206 to 1248 they've got six minutes to get to their next class and then during 3B they'll be having
015their 42-minute um class opposite lunch so of the courses that we've determined our students are going to be participating in during this time one of them is going to be reading so we're going to take a look and this process has already begun and is under way uh determining what students individual needs are so if students based off of their map scores only require a reading intervention for example they will have their reading course in that 42-minute period in the event that they'll need to take multiple interventions for example math boost as well as reading there those classes are going to be they'll have their math boost during that 42-minute period and then they'll have their reading during a 90 minute block uh and as I stated before we are going to continue offer e-learning
016uh for credit recovery during the school day in that 42 minute period um and that's currently offered at the high school as well in the traditional schedule that we've been following computer literacy uh is a course that I'm excited about uh it's going to be geared toward our freshmen that do not require any other interventions freshmen are going to be taking this course and then along the uh time period that they're in that class they're going to have the opportunity to be certified in Microsoft Office Suites which is going to be something a certification that they're going to be able to take in the community put on job applications on their resumés before the end of high school so that's going to be particularly interesting I think uh and then our AP Chemistry and our
017AP biology classes uh in those AP science classes in particular there's a very um very specific requirements for labs that need to be completed so our students in those classes are going to have this additional time to do work for labs to complete Labs um in order to help better prepare them for those advanced placement exams in May and then for College and Career exploration we're going to be doing a lot with this course uh this summer we've had a number of our teachers from a few different departments attend Avid training um Avid is uh Avid stands for advancement via individual determination uh it's a special program that was created by Mary Katherine Swanson in San Diego in 1980 uh there's a major focus in that class on teaching students the skills and strategies that
018they need to be successful both while they're in high school in their courses but also preparing them for success in college uh and in the workforce so part of that is the strategies piece they have something called wicker strategies which stands for writing inquiry collaboration organization and reading and these are strategies that we've already had several teachers uh attend programs where they've been taught how to implement those and then they're going to be applying those strategies across all kinds of different content areas so next year is year one of avid at the high school um in addition to that we're going to be working on organizational skills there's going to be some things from um the Avid elective about researching colleges and careers that we're going to bring into that as well uh the College
019and Career exploration class is going to require uh four more teachers for us um reason being is our ideas we've already had several teachers that have been trained and Avid from other areas and we're going to try to move them over to the College and Career exploration and our teachers that have attended the training they're hungry they are ready to to bring this to the high school lot of cool stuff happens in that class um and so there's definitely uh a good level of ownership among those teachers that have been trained so they're excited I do have a question with uh regard to that first section computer literacy um you mentioned freshman is that not open to the rest of the grades then sophomore junior seniors or is it only strictly freshman yeah you could
020okay yeah no problem so computer literacy is new um for freshman and it's going to offer one of those um credential pieces for it other uh students may elect to take the equivalent of Computer Applications which is a higher level um so it gets into some of the other areas of Microsoft Suite in a at a in a deeper level and so that's a course that we've had now um since I've been here so that's still an elective for upper classman but for this time period um we're just giving that to the kids and then they won't have to take get at that level they could always go to a more advanced level if computer technology is their true interest then they would be able to following this take a more advanced level class but
021the certification at this point is only available to the Freshman um through computer literacy but I believe historically it's also available through the class that is the equivalent of computer apps one and two so upper classmen can take it and Pardon Me I'm having a a memory moment but we do call that class we change the name on computer apps one and two because we made it a little bit of a higher level and I just can't think of what it is right now but I do know they still have that and I do know Mr Anderson at the high school has been one of the teachers um that was there s Sarah brome break as well they were teaching that and they also had the testing going on with Cort so that the kids
022could take the Microsoft Office Suite of Assessments and some sort of digital literacy this is more along the lines of the digital literacy which is like an ic3 initial certification for younger kids and then the older certification for CER Cort offers is more along access and so word PowerPoint are a little younger skills but then when you get into Excel and really being able to manipulate Excel and access which is a database Microsoft that's a little bit for the older kids so I'm not sure they're going to get through all four I believe it's going to be divvied up so this will be digital citizenship as well as offering it still as an elective to Upper classmen and I'm sorry I don't know the name of that class because I think we that's fine you
023uh within the College and Career exploration class we're also going to be offering act College preparation as you know in the spring the state has determined that uh the ACT is going to be the test that all of our juniors are required to take so our sophomores and our juniors are going to be getting some ACT College preparation practice questions test taking strategies uh as well as some practice tests to prepare them for that uh the the kids matter organization is going to be coming into uh the college and career Explorations class as well popping in from time to time to talk about building healthy relationships and self-esteem um working on leadership skills with our students too and that will be periodic uh in that course along the course of the school year and then
024uh the career certification uh we're going to have um businesses uh and people from the community coming in to speak about careers and about the pathways toward those careers to these classes as well sort sort of along the lines of our find a future Wednesdays events that we've been having for the last couple of years at the high school that have been very successful um but this is more geared toward toward the students in that specific College and Career before uh we move on can you tell me a little bit more about how we um selected this Teen Mental Health um um organization to come into our school like what was the process for them to come into our school you want me to take that okay I can take that because I was in
025the meetings with principal Mitchell who is out of town on vacation that's why she's not joining us um so kids matter and along with um a couple of other Community Partners actually we were connected to them through the Dunham fund um they were actually a part of a probably an entire six month to nine Monon process of the Dunham funds Community Partners application process for a competitive Grant and so um one of the the things that the Dunham fund did is to have both East and West Aurora attend all those planning meetings and so we attended those at the Aurora Country Club um we're exposed to all of the Community Partners in our immediate area in terms of those organizations that actually um responded to the RFQ and were interested in partnering with our schools
026and so we spent a good two months planning together for proposals to be submitted two of our three or and I say our we were not on name because you had to be a nonprofit to be eligible to participate or apply for this grant but two of our three programs that we helped all of those nonprofits that were interested get together they had to work together that was part of it to be able to provide a robust and comprehensive after school program was the primary goal and it was for G grades K through 12 um but this particular one was a little different in that it was during the day and so they had to make cuts when they were deciding who to award the grants to and who not to but we had done
027a pretty awesome what we thought plan with them and they were very complimentary they said perhaps next year they would be able to do that funding cycle but right now we were able to scale it back so that we could fit it into the Grant and still utilize some of the components that we were really excited about and that they had worked for months to plan so both kids matter and the Aurora fire science museum were the leads on that um we also were working with um best a self best start for um teens um and they are through the Lutheran Children and Family Services but they actually are working in the program that was dham funded um after school at the resilience education center for seventh through 10th graders so we just decided when
028we had to narrow the scope of this to narrow it down to these two partners and again they had plans that were um already laid out and worked on with the high school and they fit perfectly for these 600 Juniors sophomores and juniors into this avot program and so that's kind of how we delineate uh also and and I'll pass back to you one of the things that we stipulated we shared this with our block scheduling planning team at the union um that the union put together on their side and one of the things that they were very vocal about is giving credit hours to kids and that was a key part of them saying that this would work because we know the traditional study hall doesn't always get paid attention to so it's important
029to note that in making this a credit hour we had to have a robust curriculum component part of that and how were able to use the state code for College and Career Readiness to give a credit hour for this was to build in the career certificates component and the training that goes behind it and kids matter actually provides them with a resume credential it's in teen first aid so our students will then be able to go out and put that on their resume and they will be credentialed in the teen first aid um which is a mental health kind of a certificate program so each of these components has a career certificate to it so that it's helping us also when we give credit hours sorry did I miss anything you did not it was
030very thorough uh this concludes the presentation uh thank you again for your time this evening and Board of Education this is going down for obvious reasons because school is starting for action and again we were able to put these items in the grant so it would not come out of local funds thank you very much uh that course I think was called computer operations and programming with the Microsoft uh certification thank you yes that's and it does have the Microsoft and all southmor St seniors can sign up to take that as a regular elective yeah thanks thank you yeah next up is our backto school Fair backpack and Supply kit proposal jalita Martinez associate superintendent for school leadership is presenting thank you um en closing the packet you'll find the document present ation for the
031back to school Fair items we're very excited to share and you'll also have a flyer um in front of you that our back to school Fair will be August 10th from 10:00 a. to 2m it has been an amazing event for our families um quite a fun place to find yourself in August um we're on our third annual event and um in addition to keeping you informed about our Fair we're requesting tonight that are review that you guys review and um our request for backpacks and Supply kits for our families attending the fair that have registered their students um so next slide so in years past we've purchased the bookbags and the supply kits for prek through 12th graders and um we typically have run out of book bags especially for the elementary student so
032we did plan on ordering more this year to account for um making sure that we're ensuring that all of our students that attend are prepared for the August start date and then these are just a couple examples so you'll see on the last Slide the proposed cost of the book bags and Supply kits any questions did you already place the order not yet we're going to because uh if you guys approve it he gets a little crazy at this time of year yeah we've been in contact with the companies they're going to be able to fulfill the orders as long as we place them like tomorrow morning with your approval and which is why it's going to action tonight okay good job that was a setup no we didn't yeah all right uh no other
033questions there then we're moving on summer um inter review and actually um I just wanted to take this opportunity before she begins her first uh formal report to say kudos to Dr Engel our our new assistant superintendent for curriculum instruction and assessment um she has jumped in and um in the last what two weeks and tried to um Master as much as she can to be prepared for this meeting um so she's done an excellent job so I just want to publicly um give her kudos for uh getting in and and and getting all of this information right away she's very resourceful so um I will without any further Ado pass it over to her for her first uh report thank you so much uh as you can see District 131 has had summer programs
034for all of our grade bands of students our preschool program focused on kindergarten Readiness for those four-year-old students we had dual language programming for all of our students in grades K through three all of our Elementary and Middle School summer programs focused on literacy and math and then at the high school level our program offered opportunities for students to get ahead in credits and opportunities to recover credits as well here you can see the number of students we had registered for the summer program and the number of students who participated uh 85% of the students who were registered uh did participate in our summer program our preschool students focused on reading books to reinforce literacy our elementary students dove into Scholastics lit camp program where they focused on literacy skills well-being and engagement in math
035our students in elementary completed lesson to reinforce those important grade level learning skills and they actually completed over 2,733 lessons in total our middle school students focused on Ela and math also having completed a whopping 1, 1596 lessons in total in addition we offered 21st century camps where students gained valuable skills while exploring stem ideas and building Community all the students in that program focused on reinforcing the key math and literacy skills needed for success and in addition the students had different experiences ranging from flying drones to building solar system models to discussing careers with firefighters and exploring the firet TRU our high school was able to work really hard to help 32 students graduate through the summer program and just a reminder tomorrow we have our summer graduation ceremony so we're so proud of
036those students and in addition over 760 courses were completed this summer between students in health driver's ed and credit recovery so we've done a lot of great work this summer we have our extended school year program supporting our students with IEPs these students had uh a variety of programming targeted to their needs um but they also had access to the EA pause and sensory supports throughout the program you can see that across all the levels esy included a focus on speech Social Work occupational therapy and physical therapy and then each Grand each grade band also focused on literacy math and the skills needed for success for the third summer in a row East Aurora has sponsored middle and high school students to attend various summer camps uh in this the district covered tuition and provided
037Transportation these students had the unique opportunity to travel and participate in experiences that aligned with their interests feedback from the student participants was amazing they really emphasized the value of experiencing camp on these college campuses they found the learning to be really challenging and very rewarding and they uh talked about developing friendships and expanding skills uh beyond what they could have ever imagined so they were so impressed and thankful for that opportunity and that's my report what questions can I answer I know one of the things that we were going to include but summer school just ended last week as a final final and so I want to give Dr Engel and her team her new team an opportunity to really speak and have a final debrief meeting with our coordinators um but I know
038so when we think about what went well I think you saw a lot of examples of what went well by the numbers but what are some of the Deltas or some of the things that we would want to change I know one of the things um since the pandemic our summer school um application numbers have gone down I remember the day when I first got here we used to have to cut and and really narrow which you know were the bubble kids going to come were the kids who are a couple grade levels behind going to come but since then we have not gotten our enrollment back up I think that honestly after our discussions that some of that has to do with us consolidating sites and so it's a lot more convenient when our
039families can go to their neighborhood elementary school but if you as you are well aware because you paid for all of this we are now every summer doing wonderful um construction projects that are making our schools very livable nowadays um and that's something we didn't have previously but now with the HVAC projects or the upgrades to the gym floors and you know all of those other things that we're able to do or you're doing um for the District it is making us still have to leverage which buildings we can use and as we finish these pro programs and projects we anticipate being able to move back to being able to use neighborhood sites which would be a lot more friendly for families for getting their kids there in the summer and then we could also
040do the a continue our after school programs or after summer um academics fund programs so that was the one Delta that we came up with not that we could really change that right now but that's a big one and you can come back if there's more um eyee openening things because the board would be happy to hear that because perhaps there's something we could buy or do or you know change to help increase that around that but that's where we are for now any other questions no you answer them all no you answer my question okay well thank you so much thank you next up uh we're going to talk about our partnership with Dr Sandra Mercury and Educational Consultants and Rita Guzman executive director of language and acquisition and early learning is presenting good
041evening board members committee for 2024 and 2025 um projections duel language kindergarten through fourth grade I'm super excited that we are hitting fourth grade now and soon to be all um we just got fifth grade and we're already working on curriculum and selecting all of those components we have approximately uh 3,800 students in dual language currently right now nearly 200 teachers over 26 building administrators and 14 Elementary sites is what this proposal will cover to continue to provide professional development uh we have a relationship with the Center for Applied Linguistics SS that that's basically what does the majority of our research it's we really want to uh focus on professional development on long-term professional development plans that exist um that is inclusive focused and intensive action plans for professional development are needs based basically it's
042on individual based needs basically where they're struggling where they need additional professional development and um an individual staff plans are aligned with the program plan so whever we see that a teacher is struggling or particular building is struggling or trends that we see throughout the district um or particularly different levels of uh implementation we try to support in that area program staff um program staff partners with professional organizations so we try to really um basically follow any research that is current um throughout the nation we are proposing to continue to work with uh Dr Sandra murri Educational Consultants and her entire team uh we have very fortunate that um many school districts around us have tried to tap into them and they are booked with us so that has been phenomenal uh they worked with
043us this summer as well to provide some of the duol language and action and tons of professional development uh so 40 multi-day um visits U from Dr Sandra muris and Consultants so it would be basically Dr Vivian pratts and Sandra Martinez that will be helping Dr pratz will be helping with our administrators she has she was has tons of experience with School administration and District level um supporting our school administrators and looking more of a global um aspect on implementation of dual language and specifically on struggles and strategies and um s Martin is really uh focuses and models lessons within the classroom to support teachers in their professional development and implementation of our key um signature strategies they do visits will focus on instructional pedagog cies and strategies through uh an administrative lens modeling collaborative
044teaching and planning and coaching for critical dual language strategies such as preview V review PVR cross linguistic connections for us to be able to bridge that language and strategies and obviously a huge focus on oracy the way we want our students to be able to speak and build their vocabulary um as we spoke earlier regarding the pandemic we really had to shift the way that we provide professional development in the sense of the Consultants coming in and providing professional development within those four walls of that classroom uh compared to a teacher coming to professional development and just listening to someone speak but us actually modeling it service plan as you guys can see that's a little bit about Sandra Martinez and that's actually one of our classrooms and uh uh Dr Vivan pratts and that
045is also um one of our planning sessions where we try to support them where they're at thank you question yes um I know it's been a few years now that we've had um this individual consultant in our district um and I'm assuming it's kind of the same format as we going through the training um as I see on your proposal here the quote I see uh walkthroughs and coaching um there's a few dates but I only see group here for administrators um how we I know we're we did already K through third we're going into fourth how are we addressing that in fourth grade or is only for fourth grade and administrators I'm assuming administrators have already seen this in the previous training is this like how are we differentiating now since we've used this
046consulant for a few years now differentiation the focus would be fourth grade and supporting fourth grade and the skills necessary in fourth grade um as we build a little bit more um basically language demand within the delivery of instruction um I would say our school administrators um really need the support in the sense of really converting into instructional leaders um to be able to support the classroom teachers okay one qu and then one last question when do you think or maybe if possible when could this be something that our district lead the way if possible as our language acquisition is there a way that maybe one day we'll be ready for that are we not there yet yeah no we haven't even hit all our great levels so this is our first rip through fourth
047and then next year will be our first trip through fifth and I think at that point in time at least our elementary will have seen at least one year how it's going and younger obviously earlier grade levels that will be multiple years so like by the time we finish fifth Kinder could stand on their own as far as what the principles are expecting to see in that grade but I would definitely say as we move up to grades that have never had this approach and looking at it from a lens of what is appropriate for fourth not wanting them to say oh you learned really good Kinder through second but now look at fourth and fifth when it's a completely different even the language level of type of language and type of um instruction would
048be different for the older Intermediate kids so I think certainly after at least they've gotten one year through those brand new grade levels then I feel confident that they would be able to yeah we want to provide the same support that we provided for Kinder the third grade to fourth grade and fifth grade and then believe me we're still doing our our part as well we continue to model within the classrooms and there's a whole rotation on how uh we do it but we just wanted the experts to be able to provide that and then obviously us as uh expert languages to be able to provide support throughout as well and monitor that thank you I'm I'm good with the proposal I think it adds value and it helps our our staff to be prepared
049for the next year so I'm in support of it thank you thank you Dr Guzman thank [Applause] you okay so I am going to just briefly say as we're transitioning um our um admin team um and I know that it's been a bigger uh uphill lift for Dr Engel who is new new to the system but um before I pass this over to miss Martinez I will share that this too has been a lift for her she's familiar with the district and when she was a building principle she did all of these components that she's going to talk about now in a minute very well um the years as she was at Allen and actually the years that she went through doing this process um I think she'll be great in guiding her team to
050take our schools in status through this process because that was the year that she took our largest Elementary School off of the state list so without any further Ado thank you for your willingness to transition into this big role and share the expertise that you did when you were in that seat albe it uh quickly you um learn fast so we hope that you will spread all of that to our other schools so I'll pass it over to you to talk about why the board is approving these perfect um in closed you'll find the school Improvement plans for three of our comprehensive schools that require your approval these plans will also be submitted and uploaded to the state um as is required as being a inst status school they just finished completing their planning year
051once you are um labeled as comprehensive there's a four-year cycle that the schools go through the first year is the planning year and they've completed that working with um you know the stakeholders and their teams for the needs assessment and the root cause analysis and so now we're moving into year one of implementation and so they're working with their slts in the summer to address those areas of need make sure that their plans reflect this and I want you to note that the plans are living and breathing documents and they should be Revisited um frequently by these team so that they can make adjustments accordingly um based on what they're seeing in the building and what they're seeing with their data and the data analysis that they're going to be diving into um and so
052again we are um making sure that we are following the steps that we have to we want to make sure that you guys are aware that while they were designated as comprehensive we are still working very hard to make sure that they come off of that status and then they're following the continuous School Improvement um planning process and that includes looking at their smart goals their worthy targets their action steps their tasks and just really working with the principles um and will be in the future um identifying their learning Partners the best practices that they're going to be using um and then just watching them Implement and monitor the the areas that they've identified as needs and monitoring the practices um closely so we will um take these sit plans to action at the next
053board meeting for your approval um and we just look forward to working with these schools to making sure that um all the students are getting what they need I just had a question on the uh the monitoring aspect of this like how how often is it are these plans reviewed to see how they're working and when they're making adjustments and all that how is that a weekly daily monthly it can be weekly but I think um most of our schools are doing it every other week and those that are maybe not on the list are doing it once a month with their slts but definitely our um schools that are comprehensive are doing this at least bi-weekly with their slts just to continue monitoring the data that they have yeah thank you all right and
054the last item in here is the enrollment and registration update as of July 8th 2024 uh currently we have over 90% of our students registered for fall uh if you go ahead I think there is a pie chart there you go um and then if you go back one it just shows the the registration for each of the buildings so we're in a pretty good place for being right in the middle of summer and that's all we've got today so if nobody has anything else this meeting is officially adjourned at 6:44 PM thanks great job
