Review of the Minutes

The last SIP Meeting was in February. The minutes were approved by email by all staff members.

Questions and Comments

There are no questions or comments at this time.

School Improvement Plan Progress

The school system wants for schools to begin planning for the 2016-17 SIP before the beginning of next year’s school start date. We may not be able to do that due to testing information and EVAAS data being returned.

EOY Incentive and Field Day Plans

In past years, we have had incentives for students that use testing strategies and attend school without tardies and absences. This year, we are looking at the attendance/tardy incentives (no absences/tardies during the testing review date window). We will still have incentives for those who attend school without absences/tardies.

Field Day plans are for a tropical slip n’ slide, blue glacier water slides, chilly willy station, the fire department water spray, playground, and the gym. Hot dogs will be provided for the staff.

2016-17 BOY Planning

Amy Beavers created a handout for the testing information needed by all staff members. She also has been in contact with the technology department and has set up any and all technology that will be needed for testing.

EOG Testing Training is on May 16, 2016 from 3-5 p.m. in the media center.

2016-17 Handbooks

SIP members are asked to read through these and make any suggestions, notes, etc. on them and return to Mr. Barnwell the first of May.
