This assessment is individually administered to students. It measures accuracy, fluency and comprehension. USD 305 BAS data show that at all grade levels the percent of students reading on grade level increased from fall to spring. At every grade level, more than 65% of our students were able to read grade level text when assessed in the spring of 2020. 3 BAS District Data - Grades K, 1, 2 Mastery Near Mastery Remediation K - Fall 2017 64% 36% K - Spr 2018 72% 28% K - Fall 2018 48% 52% K - Spr 2019 65% 35% K - Fall 2019 65% 35% K - Spr 2020 64% 26% 10% 1st - Fall 2017 65% 35% 1st - Spr 2018 73% 17% 13% 1st - Fall 2018 66% 34% 1st - Spr 2019 70% 20% 10% 1st - Fall 2019 60% 40% 1st - Spr 2020 61% 34% 5% 2nd - Fall 2017 61% 25% 15% 2nd - Spr 2018 73% 16% 11% 2nd - Fall 2018 69% 20% 14% 2nd - Spr 2019 73% 15% 11% 2nd - Fall 2019 67% 21% 12% 2nd - Spr 2020 66% 20% 14% 4 BAS District Data - Grades 3, 4, 5 Mastery Near Mastery Remediation 3rd - Fall 2017 63% 23% 14% 3rd - Spr 2018 69% 19% 12% 3rd - Fall 2018 68% 20% 12% 3rd - Spr 2019 77% 14% 9% 3rd - Fall 2019 70% 18% 12% 3rd - Spr 2020 62% 26% 12% 4th - Fall 2017 68% 19% 13% 4th - Spr 2018 77% 13% 10% 4th - Fall 2018 67% 20% 13% 4th - Spr 2019 75% 13% 12% 4th - Fall 2019 72% 18% 10% 4th - Spr 2020 65% 24% 11% 5th - Fall 2017 71% 18% 11% 5th - Spr 2018 77% 14% 9% 5th - Fall 2018 72% 17% 11% 5th - Spr 2019 77% 13% 10% 5th - Fall 2019 73% 13% 14% 5th - Spr 2020 61% 26% 13% 5 NWEA MAP USD 305 uses the NWEA MAP (Measure of Academic Progress), a norm-referenced assessment, to measure math computation and problem solving at grades 1 and 2. This assessment is a computerized adaptive assessment that is administered in a group setting. The graph below shows the percent of our students at grades 1 and 2 who are performing at or above grade level on the math portion of the MAP assessment. The first graders in 2017-18 were the first group to have all-day kindergarten. Additionally, Eureka math was introduced to students, district-wide, in kindergarten through 5th grades in 2018-2019.

The results are aligned with the ACT College Readiness Benchmarks. The summative assessment measures performance in English, math, reading, and science. Results from the ACT Aspire can be used to predict performance on the ACT for students in grades 8, 9, and 10. The ACT Aspire summative was administered in the fall to our students in grades 3, 6, 9, and 10. It is important to note that results are reported using spring standard scores. USD 305 students were tested in the fall but are being compared to cut scores that were set based upon performance of students taking the same test in the spring semester. The ACT Aspire Interim was administered in the fall and is normally administered in the spring to measure student progress towards the ACT College and Career Readiness Standards and provide data for a more 1 targeted and responsive program of instruction. However, due to COVID-19, it was not administered in spring 2020. The interim was administered to students in grades 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9 in our district.

Due to COVID-19, students did not take a state assessment in the 19- 20 school year. 2 Program Highlights (Not an inclusive list, just a sample) Because of COVID-19, teachers throughout the district redesigned instruction in a matter of days. They learned new instructional strategies and created a new platform for learning while keeping the focus on students and maintaining a positive, can-do attitude. Cottonwood, Oakdale and Sunset elementary schools received the “Challenge Award of Merit” for outstanding achievement and uncommon accomplishment based on Kansas math and reading assessment results and other qualifying factors. Oakdale Elementary grade level teams mastered the art of identifying the individual needs of students and planning small group reading instruction to support those needs during Guided Reading. South Middle School’s Advanced Guitar class produced a rendition of Stand By Me via Zoom. The recording went viral on several social media platforms. The students’ performance as well as in-person interviews aired on state news networks. Salina Adult Education Center received awards for volunteer of the year (Kelly Clark) and student of the year (Dominic Mitchell). These 2020 Kansas Adult Education Association awards will be presented at the 2021 state meeting. Stewart Elementary teachers worked hard to help parents ease their students into summer learning with helpful websites, handouts, paper packets and lots of ideas before the school year ended. Meadowlark Ridge teachers implemented small group math instruction and Zones of Regulation throughout the building, incorporating the curriculum into their classrooms. Lakewood Middle School’s History and Career and Life Planning students collaborated for civics engagement projects including the mayor’s Go the Extra Mile proclamation, a City Go bus stop bench, the Salvation Army’s Red Kettle Campaign and more. Schilling Elementary offered a family book reading program for The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane and 113 families participated. Heusner Elementary teachers thought outside-of-the-box as they addressed standards, parental support, scaffolding for students when they are not face-to-face with teachers and how to assess in a virtual environment. Central High School’s Journalism program won the KSPA 5A State Journalism Championship and The Pylon (student publication) received the KSPA All Kansas Newspaper Award for the 4th consecutive year. Coronado Elementary Cubs Who Care donated 651 items to the Salina Emergency Food Bank including 120 tubes of toothpaste, 179 toothbrushes, 150 bottles of shampoo and conditioner, 61 deodorant sticks and 141 rolls of toilet paper.

  • Title: the Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher's Guide of 20Fh Century Physics
    REPORT NSF GRANT #PHY-98143318 Title: The Distribution of an Illustrated Timeline Wall Chart and Teacher’s Guide of 20fhCentury Physics DOE Patent Clearance Granted December 26,2000 Principal Investigator, Brian Schwartz, The American Physical Society 1 Physics Ellipse College Park, MD 20740 301-209-3223 [email protected] BACKGROUND The American Physi a1 Society s part of its centennial celebration in March of 1999 decided to develop a timeline wall chart on the history of 20thcentury physics. This resulted in eleven consecutive posters, which when mounted side by side, create a %foot mural. The timeline exhibits and describes the millstones of physics in images and words. The timeline functions as a chronology, a work of art, a permanent open textbook, and a gigantic photo album covering a hundred years in the life of the community of physicists and the existence of the American Physical Society . Each of the eleven posters begins with a brief essay that places a major scientific achievement of the decade in its historical context. Large portraits of the essays’ subjects include youthful photographs of Marie Curie, Albert Einstein, and Richard Feynman among others, to help put a face on science. Below the essays, a total of over 130 individual discoveries and inventions, explained in dated text boxes with accompanying images, form the backbone of the timeline. For ease of comprehension, this wealth of material is organized into five color- coded story lines the stretch horizontally across the hundred years of the 20th century. The five story lines are: Cosmic Scale, relate the story of astrophysics and cosmology; Human Scale, refers to the physics of the more familiar distances from the global to the microscopic; Atomic Scale, focuses on the submicroscopic This report was prepared as an account of work sponsored by an agency of the United States Government.
