  2. Special Education Next Steps Heather Dratwa 8:35-9:20

-wanted to look at our special educations students

-Should we look at Fall to Winter growth for the Special Education students

-What interventions were put in place for those students

  1. Preschool/KRA Next Steps Deanne Link

-has become more complicated than we thought

-students moved between preschools so there are lot of other factors

-will still get the data to us and Head Start wants that data as well

  1. Student Indicator 1A MAP Data Meghan Griffith/
  2. 4th-5th-6th Data Bob Schumm

-this continues to come up as we go through the data

-tracked growth from Fall to Spring started with 4th graders in 2012-2013

-Cohort 2 was in 3rd grade at the same time

-Reading is all that is available right now; math will be shortly after

BREAK into GROUPS to review the data

-Groups reviewed data and completed charts that will be compiled by Deanne

-Groups did request that we see a breakdown of the Greenfield kids and whether they improved or not in each individual school

-Breakdown by subgroup was also requested

  1. Building Reports—Student Indicator 1A Matt Shelton 9:20-9:40
  2. Steps 3-5 Status

--What steps are we taking in the buildings to make sure that we are using our data appropriately

--Focus on intervention has been to focus on the bubble kids, is that working?

--Spec Ed students are the ones that are bringing down our scores and can make greater gains

--Are we using intervention specialists with the greatest efficiency?

-MS-class reports to determine differentiation and continuing to use those reports

-good faith checklist for MAP so that students buy in

-similar expectations from all teachers that leads to rewards and incentives

-BE-difficult to take a specific skill or strategy

-working on a framework in K-2

-3-5 are focusing on bubble kids as well as worrying about motivation

-found a book to help them focus on motivation as a book study

-Name of Book? Will be emailed by Mike Shumate

-found that praise does not motivate everyone

-RE-following the MAP council procedure

-TBTs will be the evidence of that

-looked at Fall data to Winter and looked at the why of their movement

-how are students meeting goals from the learning continuum

-GE-still supporting the skills navigator piece

-what is happening in preschool and kindergarten

-walk-throughs, minutes from TBTs, strategy review chart

  1. OIPIR Data Review
  2. Data Review Protocol
  3. Steps 1-5—How can we follow- Data Teams 9:40-10:30

through w/the 5-Step

Process

-OIPIR data survey; first sheet is the one we just took and the second sheet is the one that shows the comparison all the way across the years

-Each year we have taken the OIPIR data it has been during December

Group 1

-Ranking must have a bottom and even though B11 is still at the bottom it is no longer so far away

-Modeling in grade levels rather than an elementary model

-MS is really concentrating with FIP

Group 2

-Reiterated a lot of the same thing as group 3

-Teachers need to take this survey as well

-Everything went up and we still have low community involvement as well as differentiation

-Are we truly focusing on those low areas

-Being more positive in our district

-#happyclassrooms / teachers should hash tag pictures or positive things they are doing in their classrooms every day

-positive atmosphere in the buildings

-track communication with the Facebook page

Group 3

-Survey was much smoother and much more clear than previously

-greater understanding might have led to some of the other scores

-How are we differentiating

-C13 and C17 both went down and we were surprised at that

-better communication between the 3 elementary buildings

-intervention specialists meeting on waiver days or once a month

-all teachers need to take the survey except for section B

Group 4

-Community piece and the formative assessment as well as the differentiation piece are a struggle

-Good growth of the community involvement

Group 5

-C13 and C17 believe there are struggles when there is no one else in the building that is teaching the same thing

-more positive communication

BREAK—Process Observer Report 10:30-10:45

---Comments by Misty Ewry---

-What are we doing with the data that we are looking at

-We are getting good information from the Facebook as well as the new website and parent councils

-We are overlooking the “pats on the back” from last December that we are doing now

-So what are we doing now that can help the things that we are seeing as downfalls right now!

-Conversation with bubble kids versus Special Ed students

-We are trying to close a gap

-What are we doing to help close the achievement gap?

-Are we looking at the information that shows what interventions led to a student improvement?

-What are the accessibility features on an IEP and a 504?

-Intervention time can be used to make gains with some other groups of kids

Power point and a new manual for AIR test that shows what new features every child has access to for the test such as Text to Speech for Math, Science and Social Studies

  1. TBT Effectiveness Rubric DataBuilding Teams 10:45-11:35
  2. Data Review Protocol
  3. Steps 1-5

Quick steps and long term goals

-BE-appreciative of the rubric that helped lead the team

-both groups have established norms

-K-2 has established a reporter and 3-5 has not established that yet

-Success criteria is still confusing and more guidance or professional development would be beneficial

-RE-reviewing of norms and adding another role

-focus on strategies and adding/modeling strategies to really help

-complex rubric and it was difficult to pinpoint what it should look like

-GE-2 lowest areas were leadership monitoring and success criteria

-created a plan to monitor instructional strategies

-teacher leaders and principal communicate regularly

-HS-leadership monitoring and success criteria were our lowest areas

-did they really understand what was expected

-buy-in is still low and the teachers are not fully seeing the value of the TBT

-harder to start in the middle of the school year, but that is something we are going to focus on for next year

-Did this together as a group; would like to see it done individually (MS/HS)

-MS-lowest area was success criteria so we needed a better way to communicate this with the students; each teacher will communicate this in TBTs

-long term would be feedback from observers about what they are seeing

-this might help us know where to go
