May 12, 2014 Page 2 STUDENT AND STAFF RECOGNITION
1. Recognition of Student
The Auburn School District Board of Directors will recognize Peter Youn, a senior at Auburn High School, for being an outstanding student.
Peter made the decision to attend Harvard University well before the start of his freshman year. As a freshman, he approached his counselor, Leslie Kiilsgaard, and said, "I want to go to Harvard. What do I need to do?”
She told him to do his best, stay on track and go to school every day. Peter followed Mrs. Kiilsgaard's advice to the letter. He did his best, stayed on track and went to school every day. He is not only graduating at the top of his class with a 4.0 GPA, but he also has a perfect attendance record. He will be attending Harvard in the fall.
Peter is a remarkable student who always gives his best. His list of accomplishments is a reflection of his drive, determination and dedication to doing his best in everything. He is ranked number one in his class, scored a perfect 800 on the Math SAT and scored a 5 on the A.P. Calculus BC Exam.
Peter also is a skilled violinist. He has played in the Tacoma Youth Symphony throughout high school and is one of the leading players. He was selected to play with the Auburn Symphony at least twice this past year. He declined an invitation to play at the Select State Solo Ensemble because it conflicted with his Harvard visit. Last year, Peter participated in a benefit concert that raised $4,000 for North Korean orphans and the homeless in Seattle.
Orchestra teacher Dale Johnson tells this story about Peter, "Peter asked me to help him record an excerpt of him playing for one of his Ivy League applications. On the appointed day, I asked him what piece he was going to play and he said the Mendelssohn Violin Concert. I did not know he had learned it. This was during a time when he had also learned two other really challenging pieces. He recorded the fifteen minute first movement of that challenging piece in one take from memory. There was nothing faintly representing a mistake. He listened to the recording and said he could do better. So we recorded it again and he was right, it was even better. That is vintage Peter."
His other high school activities are numerous. He is a four-year letterman of the Auburn High School FIRST Robotics Team where he was in charge of the Chairman's Award application which the team subsequently won, he played on the varsity tennis team, served as the Key Club president, was the impetus of the creation of the Math Club, served as a Math Club officer and is a member of the National Honor Society.
In his spare time - which is not much - Peter volunteers as a tutor for the King County Library System and, for the past four years, he has volunteered every Sunday at his church. This past September he began providing free violin lessons for a student in need.
May 12, 2014 Page 3 2. Recognition of Staff
The Auburn School District Board of Directors will recognize Amy Grijalva, fifth grade teacher at Ilalko Elementary, for her outstanding service.
Other than substitute teaching in the Bellingham and Ferndale school districts right after graduating from Western Washington University, Amy has spent her 15-year teaching career as a fifth grade teacher at Ilalko.
“I like the maturity level of fifth graders,” Amy said, “I enjoy watching them get ready for middle school.”
Fellow Ilalko fifth grade teacher Peter Sprenger said “I am amazed on a daily basis by what she accomplishes with her students. She inspires me to work at developing new assessments and trying new strategies.”
Peter also said “Amy’s organization and friendly personality are the glue that holds our team together.”
Amy loves teaching. “The “aha” moments when the light bulb goes off, I just love that part of teaching,” she said. Her favorite subject to teach is math.
Ilalko principal Tim Carstens said, “Amy understands the success of her teaching is measured by the learning of her students. She instills pride in work, respect for others, and, above all, confidence in her students as they move from elementary to middle school.”
Amy grew up in the Maple Valley area and lives in Bonney Lake. Away from work, she enjoys gardening, being with friends and family, and shopping. She has been married to her husband Paul for 15 years and is a busy mom of two girls, ages six and eight.
3. Washington Association of Educational Office Professionals 2014 Office Professional of the Year
The Board would like to congratulate Cristi Cruickshank, administrative assistant for child nutrition services, on receiving the Washington Association of Educational Office Professionals 2014 Office Professional of the Year Award. Cris was honored at the WAEOP annual awards banquet April 26 in Olympia.
This award was decided by a panel of WAEOP judges based on the nomination, education (PSP Certificates, inservice courses completed), membership/leadership roles in professional associations, community activities, personnel rating and letters of recommendation.
Cris has worked for the Auburn School District since 1989 in a variety of office professional positions. May 12, 2014 Page 4
4. Teachers of the Year
The Auburn School District Board of Directors will celebrate the 2013-14 Teachers of the Year.
Travis Volk-Elementary Teacher of the Year
Travis Volk is the Auburn School District 2013-14 elementary school level outstanding teacher of the year. Travis touches the lives of students, families, and his peers at Washington Elementary.
In his seventh year of teaching first grade at Washington, Travis is, according to Washington principal Pauline Thomas, “one of those teachers who parents request and whose students consistently meet benchmark assessments.”
She also notes that Travis has been an exemplary teacher by providing a positive, effective learning environment with rigorous curriculum and instruction.
In addition to his highly effective classroom, Travis is active outside of his classroom, too. He serves on the Autism Resources Team and has led professional development focused on effective classroom strategies. He has been on the Washington School Improvement Planning Team, Positive Behavior Intervention System, Olweus Climate Committee, the PTA Yearbook, and has served as the Auburn Food Bank Food drive facilitator for the last seven years. Travis also participated in the Auburn Teacher Leadership Academy during its inaugural year.
He has been instrumental in the transition to the Common Core State Standards for first grade. He is a leader in the first grade professional learning community as they look at data and make curriculum, instruction and assessment decisions.
Travis’ favorite part of teaching is the people. “First graders are a constant source of laughter,” he said. He also loves the great group of educators at Washington and the Autism Resource Team. He said it is a strong network of teachers willing to collaborate for student success.
Travis is a product of the Auburn School District from kindergarten through 12th grade. He believes every student deserves a teacher who works to understand their needs and cares about them.
Travis’ resume shows his commitment to learning. He attended Green River Community College as a Project Teach member and received his bachelor’s degree from Central Washington University. Last year he completed a master’s of science in reading and mathematics instructions.
Being selected Elementary Teacher of the Year has made Travis reflect about the people in his personal and professional life that have impacted him as a person and an educator.

Susan Winter-Middle School Teacher of the Year
Susan Winter is the Auburn School District 2013-14 middle school level outstanding teacher of the year. She teaches social studies and leadership at Mt. Baker Middle School
Susan has been teaching in the Auburn School District for 24 years. After teaching at Alpac Elementary for 13 years, she is now in her 11th year at Mt. Baker.
Susan is committed to a holistic approach to education. She is committed to strong academic instruction and learning and, at the same time, is committed to supporting her students’ emotional, social, and physical well-being. Her philosophy is to help her students create possibilities for themselves that empower them to get into action to create futures they love.
She encourages her students to think positively about themselves and their lives. According to Mt. Baker librarian Anne Clark, “Susan is an outstanding educator who demonstrates commitment and excellence in all areas of education.”
In her leadership classes, she works with students to inspire them to take responsibility for their own learning and help them achieve personal integrity in all areas of their lives.
She is a collaborator and brings the language arts and social studies teams together to facilitate effective instruction. She is a leader in social studies curriculum and has helped coordinate it district wide.
Mt. Baker principal Greg Brown said, “Susan represents the best in education.”
Reflecting on her role as a teacher, Susan said, “I get out of bed every day knowing I make an enormous contribution on the planet. I empower children to become leaders in their own lives and show them how much they matter. I inspire children to help change the world.”
Outside of her positive classroom, Susan founded and runs an after school club called the The End Zone Academy. The club’s purpose is to foster community service and students work with The Humane Society, The Auburn Food Bank, the Terry Home and more. She also organized the district middle school event in January, Celebrate Change, to recognize and encourage community service. The event also raised money towards a goal of raising $10,000 to build a school in South America next summer.
Being the Middle School Teacher of the Year confirms for Susan that she is “doing what I am supposed to be doing on the planet.”
Meri Benedict-High School Teacher of the Year
Meri Benedict is the Auburn School District 2013-14 high school level outstanding teacher of the year. Meri teaches health, leadership and is the activities director for Auburn Riverside High School.
May 12, 2014 Page 6 Meri has been teaching in the Auburn School District for almost 35 years. She started at Gildo Rey Elementary and then taught at Olympic Middle School before moving to Auburn High School. She transferred from Auburn High to Auburn Riverside eight years ago and became the activities director. During the course of her career she has taught Spanish, French, English, health, leadership and more. Meri is a Nationally Board Certified teacher in Adolescent Health.
As activities director, Meri is responsible for all aspects of the student government, is the director of all clubs and activities, coordinates all school dances, coordinates graduation, manages the ASB budget and more.
Meri started the Link Crew program at both Auburn High and Auburn Riverside and views it as her single greatest accomplishment of her career. This program teaches students a process to mentor their peers and freshmen to create a positive, embracing climate at school.
She is active in many professional associations and outside of the classroom. She is the South Puget Sound Local Association of Student Councils advisor for the 2013-14 school year, was the King County representative for the Washington Activities Coordinator’s Association, has worked for 30 years in various roles during the Association of Washington School Principals summer leadership camps, and is currently the director of two leadership camps.
Frank Ramirez, Auburn Riverside High School assistant principal, said, “A paramount quality for Meri’s work is her ability to touch the lives of students. Her sensitivity to young adults and character building is easily apparent in her classroom, during assemblies, and in district- wide activities.”
Meri said, “High school students struggle with their identity and the battle between being identical to everyone else and being themselves. My joy comes when they learn their uniqueness is a gift and an asset and begins to thrive as individuals.”
Meri thinks kids are wonderful. “I love their crazy energy, excitement for everything, and genuine desire to do good things and make the world a better place. My job is to help them learn how to accomplish that,” she said.

Dick Scobee SIP Process
Our SIP teams met on a monthly basis in sub groups (reading/math/pbis). Data was reviewed by the SIP team and shared with staff at data carousels/reviews. Committees researched, developed action steps or SMART Goals and an Action Plan was developed. The plan was shared with staff for agreement and approval.
Demographic Data Students served by Dick Scobee Elementary school represent some of the greatest challenges in the Auburn School District. Over eighty-three percent of all students qualify for free and reduced lunch; family mobility rate is thirty-eight percent; and over twenty-eight percent of our students qualify for ELL (English Language Learners) services. As of October first 2011, Dick Scobee Students were 11.7% Asian/Pacific Islander, 8.2% black, 28.3% Hispanic, 46.2% White, and 6% Two or More Races. A large portion of our parents are residents of a King County Housing Authority apartment complex. Many of these families speak little to no English at home creating a greater challenge than our student percentages would indicate. Trends for demographics for the last 5 years are described in the table below: 2008-2009 2009-2010 2010-2011 2011-2012 2012-2013 Free/Reduced 61.6% 68.3% 73.8% 77.6% 82.3% Lunch ELL 20.4% 24.7% 27.5% 29.4% 25.7% White 53.5% 49.2% 49% 46.2 45.5%
Discipline and Attendance Analysis There was limited to no data collected officially for discipline prior to the 2011- 2012 school-year. During the 2011-2012 school year there were 413 office referrals recorded in Skyward (2.4 per/day). In 2012-2013, there were 351 recorded as of 5-23-2013 (2.25 per/day). More specifically, there was a decrease from 238 referrals from the playground to 57 (2011-2012 year to 2012-2013 year).
During 2010-2011 School year, there was an average monthly attendance rate of 92%. This went to 93% during 2011-2012 and 94.5% in 2012-2013. In 2010-2011, there was an average of 115 tardy students per week. This decreased to an average of 92 per week in 2011-2012 and 84 in 2012-2013.
Attendance has been a challenge in this building as far back as working memory and data can track. In the last 15 months many steps have been taken to address this issue, and while the growth in this area is slow, any additional minutes of seat time that is increased makes a significant difference for that child.

Assessment Decisions In reading, DIBELS is our primary filter for establishing leveled reading CORE groups as well as our Tier II leveled reading groups. Both words per minute and accuracy data are analyzed for these decisions. While DIBELS is the primary filter in K-2, grades 3-5 use MAPS and MSP scores for additional information. All grade levels use Common Formative Assessments to make instructional decisions regarding the progress of students and/or need for additional remediation. At various grade levels additional diagnostic assessments are used to target specific deficits for students for the purpose of targeted assistance.
In math, Common Formative Assessments, Unit Pre-Assessments, and Unit Summative Assessment are used for grades k-5. MAPS and MSP results are also analyzed for systemic needs and targeted support.
Data Analysis- DIBELS The gains in Benchmark students at most grade levels meets or surpasses the number of Benchmark students in the past 2 years. Although we have an increasing number of incoming Intensive students in Kindergarten, we continue to make gains in the number of Benchmark students by the middle and end of year. In winter, 74% of our Kinders were at Benchmark on Nonsense Word Fluency, and 69% were Benchmark on Phoneme Segmentation Fluency. The additional subtest of ORF in mid-year first grade continues to be a challenge; however we still had 52% of our students meet Benchmark on the ORF. In winter, 87% of our students were Benchmark on Phoneme Segmentation Fluency and 58% were benchmark on Nonsense Word Fluency. Out first graders have a strong sense of phonemic awareness which is allowing them to move into connected text earlier in the school year. At the second grade level, we more than doubled the number of Benchmark students (74%) as measured by the winter Dibels than in previous years. A little over half of our students in grades 3 through 5 met the winter Benchmark. There has been a significant increase in the accuracy of readers in grades 2 through 5, which may be reflected in the reduced rates.

Data Analysis- MAPS Our fall MAPS scores showed our third grade mean RIT score of 186 which puts them into the 28%tile. Our fourth graders scored a mean RIT of 199 (30%tile) and our fifth graders a mean RIT of 202 (36%tile). Winter MAPS scores indicate students at grades 3 and 5 are making gains (3rd: 7.9/ 4th: 0.0/ 5th: 3.9).Fifth grade’s gain of 3.9 from fall to winter has already exceeded their total annual gain of 3.4 last year. Comprehension continues to be a challenge at every grade level, particularly for our struggling students.

Grade 4 Reading 199 (39%tile) 199.0 0.0

MSP/HSPE Reading Our MSP scores continue to fluctuate from year to year rather than consistently showing an upward trend. The number of fourth grade students meeting standard exceeded the state percentage, while third and fifth graders were below the state percentage. The trend for third grade is to perform better on informational text, while the opposite is true of our fourth and fifth graders. Last year was a challenging year for third graders. They significantly dropped in every measure of comprehension, while fourth graders made significant gains in every measure of comprehension. Fifth graders made gains in every area except comprehension of text.

Our students in grades three and four have made significant gains in both GE and NPR. Comparing last year to this current school year, second graders made some improvement (28 NPR to 31 NPR), third and fifth graders showed the same NPR scores in winter 2013 as they did in winter 2012 (2nd: 37 NPR/ 5th: 32 NPR). Fourth graders showed the most improvement with a winter 2012 NPR of 35 and a 2013 NPR of 45. 2012-13

Our analysis of data concluded that in almost every area measured on the MSP our third, fourth, and fifth grade scores have a positive trajectory with the way they are trending. Our female students consistently outperform our male students, and that “Problem Solving/Reasoning” is the area in which our students do not meet standard most often.
We have made gains with many of our minority populations such as special education and ELL students in the areas of “Number Sense” and “Geometric Sense/Measurement.” We infer from the data that vocabulary is an area that would greatly assist these students in the other two strands.

CEE Perceptual Survey The CEE Perceptual Survey demonstrated significant gains in the affirmative direction for almost every item. The one area that we continue to struggle in is Parent Involvement, Communication, and Cultural Sensitivity.
With only a year-and-a-half of data collection on discipline, our analysis may be limited. What we do know is that the data we analyzed is our current reality, and from that we can make informed decisions. After the first year of data collection there were many steps taken in response the high volume of office referrals that came from the playground. These steps resulted in a reduction of approximately 75%.

Strengths
READING & ELA
Despite an increasing number of ELL students, children are exiting Kindergarten to enter first grade with a stronger knowledge of phonemic awareness. We have experienced significant increases in the number of students meeting benchmark by the end of Kindergarten even with two additional subtests in the spring testing.
Students are also entering first grade with more ability to decode nonsense words. This is allowing first grade teachers to move into connected text much earlier than in the past. That is evident in our current Winter Dibels Benchmark scores.
Students in grades two through five have significantly increased their Oral Reading Fluency accuracy as evidenced by our fall and winter Dibels Benchmark scores. This is contributing to the increase in their capability to retell. Successful differentiation during CORE Reading, the use of explicit phonics/decoding instruction, and consistent progress monitoring are helping to ensure the continuation of increasing the number of benchmark readers.

Prioritized Challenges
READING/ELA
Vocabulary – Implement an instructional template that explicitly teaches vocabulary. Vocabulary acquisition continues to be a challenge for most of our students, especially the increasing number of ELL students at our school. This statement is based on STAR scores as well as observations of speaking and student writing pieces. STAR: 2nd Grade went from the 40%tile in Fall to the 31%tile in Winter. 5th Grade level went from the 36%tile in Fall to 32%tile in Winter.
Comprehension - Strengthen strategies for analyzing and comprehending text Our fluctuating MSP and MAPS scores indicate inconsistent performance on measurements of comprehension and analysis using both informational and expository texts. For example, our fifth grade students continue to lag behind both the district AND state in their comprehension and analysis of informational and literary text. (Students who do pass the MSP, generally score a Level 3 vs. Level 4.)
We need to engage students in reading high-quality texts in a variety of genres closely and critically by teaching research-proven reading comprehension strategies using gradual release of responsibility approaches.
Retell vs. Summary – Explicitly teach the definition of each, comparing how they are alike and different. Model and teach how to give an excellent oral retell and how to tell or write an excellent summary. Create and implement school wide rubrics for measuring the quality of student retells and summaries.
Many of our teachers and most of our students have confusion about how to give a retell and how to write/give a summary of text. This statement is based on on-going teacher dialogue with peers at their grade level as well as with their cross-grade colleagues. Research shows that effective summarizing is part of critically thinking deeper about text.
19 |
Gender Gap- Incorporate movement opportunities as part of the learning process, provide male reading role models, provide boys with topics and genres that are of interest to them (in connection to texts, assignments, read alouds, classroom libraries).
This is a trend that permeates grades three through five as we look at MSP results over the last 5-7 years. We know there may be a variety of causes such as the brain development of boys, interest level of the texts, apprehension about writing responses, and lack of motivation and interest in reading.
3rd & 4th Grades: Girls have outperformed boys on MSP for at least the past 6 years. Boys that do pass, generally score a Level 3. (Never been a year where there has been more Level 4’s than 3’s.)
5th Grade: Girls outperforming boys for 5 out of the last 7 years on the MSP.

POSITIVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT
Parent and Community Involvement. 39% of the staff felt this was a challenge for our school in 2012. Only 7% staff felt the statement “This school has activities to celebrate the diversity of this community” was almost always true (2012). Focused Professional Development. 27% of staff felt this was a challenge for our school in 2012. 20% of staff believes “We are provided training to meet the needs of a diverse student population”. Monitoring of Teaching and Learning. 24% of staff felt this was a challenge for our school in 2012. 17% of staff feel peer observation and feedback is used to improve instruction. ODR’s for “Multiple Offenses” increased from 26 (6.34%) recorded in 2011-2012 to 81 (20.51%) in 2012-2013. ODR’s for “Non-Compliance” rose from zero in 2011-2012 to 47 (11.9%) in 2012-2013. Our ODR data for race is not proportionate to our racial demographic data.
Study Teams (Each study team should consider parent/community involvement, cultural competency and integration of technology as potential strategies in each goal area e.g. How can parent involvement, cultural competence and technology assist the school in meeting its reading goal?)
Literacy Goal Group: Cindy Carroll, Jennifer Riestra, Tim Pfab, Glenn Jenkins, Debbie Helm, Reading Goal Group Research Materials: Vocabulary: Exposing students to many words at the surface level is not enough (Beck, McKeown &Kucan, 2002; Stahl & Nagy, 2006; Graves, 2006). Although the National Reading Panel has concluded that there is no one single vocabulary instruction method will result in optimal learning, explicitly teaching vocabulary has been shown to increase students’ ability to understand new content by 12 percentile points (Stahl & Fairbanks, 1986). Research documents the strong link and reciprocal relationship between vocabulary knowledge and text comprehension (Anderson & Freebody, 1981; Beck, 2002; Nagy, 2007; Stahl & Fairbanks, 1987). Studies have shown that students’ achievement will increase by 33 percentile points when vocabulary instruction focuses on specific words that are important to what they are learning. Research on ELLs also indicates that vocabulary knowledge predicts academic achievement across the curriculum (Saville-Troike, 1984; Snow & Kim, 2007). Effective vocabulary instruction incorporates both direct (teach specific words, direct instruction, word roots and affixes, read alouds,
21 |
pre teach vocab, deep processing of words) and less direct approaches (use context clues, encourage wide reading, engage in high quality oral language, cultivate an interest in words (Baker, 1995; Beck, 2002; Biemiller, 2004; Lehr, Osborn, & Hiebert, 2004; Marzano, 2004; Nagy, 2005, Stahl, 1999). Students must encounter words in context more than once to learn them. (repetition and multiple exposures in a variety of contexts.) In essence, more exposure results in more understanding. Use read alouds/think alouds to expose students to higher-level vocabulary than they may read independently by providing word explanations during the read. There is a need to explicitly teach vocabulary terms that are critical to students’ understanding of new content. It is vital to identify appropriate words to teach (Tier 1, 2, 3) and provide student -friendly definitions. Vocabulary words should be those that the learner will find useful in many contexts. Direct teaching helps students to develop in- depth knowledge of words (Beck, McKeown & Kucan, 2002). When students receive instruction on words prior to encountering them in context, their ability to comprehend these words increases by a factor of one-third. Effective vocabulary instruction also includes active engagement in learning tasks, motivation to learn and use words, and the development of independent word-learning strategies including the use of context clues, the use of word parts, and the efficien t use of the dictionary. An effective way to learn a new word is to associate an image with it (nonlinguistic representations such as pictographs, mental images, pantomimes, pictures, videos) National Reading Technical Assistance Center 2010 Computer technology can also be used effectively to help teach vocabulary.
Comprehension: 1.) Retelling & Summarizing: Speaking, listening Children develop the ability to retell a story with a logical sequence of events between the ages of two and five. Children who have problems retelling stories seem to be more likely to have problems with reading comprehension in later years. Repeated practice in retelling—even with minimal teacher instruction—improves reading comprehension, with transfer to future reading tasks.
Retelling is considered an oral event, and is a prerequisite to summarizing. A retell should include key points and details (narrative: setting, characters, problem, sequence of events, resolution; informational: topic, main ideas, details, organization, key vocab.). (Kissner)
Summarizing, an oral or written event, is a shortened version of an
22 |
original text that requires higher order thinking (synthesis, evaluation. It should include all the main ideas and important details, while reflecting the structure and order of the original text. (Kissner)
Gender Gap Brain research has found that certain areas of the male brain do not develop at the same rate or even in the same sequence as the female brain. The female brain matures sooner than the male brain, and certain areas of the brain do not develop to the same degree in one gender as compared with the other. These brain design differences are what create some of the external behaviors and attitudes that we see in boys and girls. Gender research of the brain implies the need for movement in males, which stimulates boys’ brains and enhances their ability to learn (Guriar & Henley, 2001). Boys do not read or enjoy reading as much as girls Boys enjoy reading different materials. Girls are twice as likely as boys to read fiction for enjoyment. They are more likely to read text messages, magazines, animal-related books, lyrics and poems. By contrast, more boys than girls read newspapers, science fiction/fantasy, sports-related books, manuals, joke books, humorous fiction and comic books. (National Literacy Trust) How teachers can get boys motivated: Provide role models, appeal to the interests of boys (read aloud selections, balance fiction and nonfiction in class libraries), make literacy relevant; provide choice of reading and writing tasks.
Effective comprehension instruction includes explicitly teaching students how to use research-based reading comprehension strategies (strong evidence), how to identify and use text’s organizational structure (moderate evidence), guiding students through focused, high-quality discussion on the meaning of text (minimal evidence), and establishing an engaging and motivating context in which to teach reading comprehension (moderate evidence). Creating an engaging, motivating context includes helping students discover the purpose and benefits of reading, creating opportunities for students to see themselves as successful readers, giving students reading choices, and providing opportunities for students to learn by collaborating with their peers (moderate evidence). (What Works Clearinghouse/Institute of Education Sciences)
Build disciplinary and world knowledge by providing exposure to a volume and variety of texts. (Duke, Pearson, Strachan, Billman)
Strong evidence: Provide explicit vocabulary instruction. The probability that students will leanr new words while reading is relatively low—about 15%. (Swanborn and de Glopper)
23 |
Writing Goal Group Research Materials: The CCSS Writing Standards strongly emphasize the need for students to learn to write about the information that they find in text. This is in line with recent research suggesting that writing about texts and engaging in the act of writing text increase reading comprehension. Students will need to know how to summarize text, critically analyze the information reported in texts, and synthesize information from multiple texts, using what is drawn from sources as evidence in support of students’ own ideas. Recommendations include: 1. Provide opportunities for students to write in response to reading across the curriculum. 2. Provide research opportunities that involve reading both print and digital texts, and that require writing in response to reading. 3. Provide teachers with professional development in teaching students how to write the types of texts required in the CCSS.
Math Goal Group: Dara Lindberg, Lindsay Spears, Amanda Brooks, Tiffany Mattox, Amanda Baehr, and LeAnn Ringler Math Goal Group Research Materials: Fact Fluency Program: Math fact fluency is the ability to recall the answers to basic math facts automatically and without hesitation. Students must first gain a conceptual understanding of the operations, then be taught specific computational strategies and practice in untimed settings , and finally develop fluency through times assessments. (Spear-Swerling, 2006) Fact fluency allows students to solve complex problems without cognitive overload taking place due to lack of fact fluency. (Woodward, 2006; Cummings & Elkins, 1999; Pellegrino & Goldman, 1987; Hasselbring, Goin, & Bransford, 1988) Building-wide Problem Solving Strategy: Using a building wide approach to problem solving will improve and streamline vocabulary instruction and increase the fidelity of instruction across classrooms. This involves the process of teaching students how to define the problem, identify and prioritize possible solutions, and evaluating the outcome. (Mellinger, 1991). We will use “USA ” (Understand, Solve, Answer, Check). This strategy includes the four essential tenants supported in the meta-analysis of research on this topic. (Marcucci, 1980). When students are taught this with deep understanding, there is an effect size of .61. (Hattie, 2009) Common Formative Assessments: When teachers are required to use data and evidence based models, effect sizes were higher than when data were evaluated by teacher judgment. In addition, when the data was graphed, effect sizes were higher than when data were simply recorded. The effect size of using these assessments
24 |
systematically is .90. (Hattie, 2009) Acceleration: One of the most powerful strategies available is “Acceleration.” This means that the system intentionally looks for ways to allow students to work ahead in the content if and when they are ready. “Accelerated instruction enables bright students to work with their mental peers on learning tasks that match their abilities” (Kulik & Kulik, 1984b, p. 84). It has an effect size of .88. (Hattie, 2009) Micro Teaching: Microteaching typically involves teachers conducting lessons to a small group of students and then engaging in post discussions about the lessons. They are usually video taped for later analysis and allow for an intense view of their teaching and/or to model expected instruction. This has an effect size of .88. (Hattie, 2009) Teacher Clarity: It is important for the teacher to communicate the intentions of the lessons and the notions of what success means for these intentions. Teacher clarity is defined as organization, explanation, examples and guided practice, and assessment of student learning. (Fendick 1990) Ensuring that students fully comprehend the learning target and what they will have to do to demonstrate mastery has an effect size of .75. (Hattie, 2009) Feedback: When feedback is combined with a correctional review, feedback and instruction become intertwined until “the process itself takes on the forms of new instruction, rather than informing the student solely about correctness” (Kulhavy, 1977, p.212). “Feedback is information with which a learner can confirm, add to, overwrite, tune, or restructure information in memory, whether that information is domain knowledge, meta-cognitive knowledge, beliefs about self and tasks, or cognitive tactics and strategies” (Winne & Butler, 1994, p.5740). This specific type of feedback when provided consistently has an effect size of .73. (Hattie, 2009) Piagetian Programs: Knowing the ways in which students think, and how this thinking may be constrained by their stages of development may be most important to how teachers choose materials and tasks, how the concept of difficulty and challenge can be realized in different tasks, and the importance of developing successive and simultaneous thinking (Naglieri & Das, 1997; Sweller, 2008). We are not prescribing a “specific” program be adopted but rather that the staff receive professional development around the concepts and understanding pertinent to their instruction with kids. Self-Reported Grades: Students need to have an estimate of their own performance-typically formed from past experiences in learning. While the results of this strategy vary based on age, there is strong data to support the notion that this is a powerful strategy for all students. When used with fidelity, the effect size is 1.44. (Hattie, 2009)

Supportive Learning Environment Goal Group: Dave Moynihan, Beth Raines, Heather Clerget, Liz Gibson-Meyers, Allison Kihara, Lori Adams, Judy Jones, Sarah Lysene
Supportive Learning Environment Research Materials: Evidence-based practices have been demonstrated in formal research studies to be related to valued outcomes for children and their families. Any claim that a practice or procedure is “evidence-based” should be framed in the context of (a) explicit description of the procedure/practice, (b) clear definition of the settings and implementers who use the procedure/practice, (c) identification of the population of individuals who are expected to benefit, and (d) the specific outcomes expected. Given this context, the research involving the practice/procedure may be reviewed, and an array of criteria have been proposed by different agencies and organizations (c.f. American Psychological Association, What Works Clearinghouse, SAMSA, Institute for Education Science) for how this literature may be examined to determine the level of experimental rigor, and the confidence with which any statement about “evidence-based” effects can be claimed. A summary of suggestions for defining evidence-based practices from Quantitative (Gersten et al., 2005), Correlational (Thompson et al., 2005) and Single Subject (Horner et al., 2005) research methods was reviewed for educational literature in special section of Exceptional Children (Odom et al., 2005). We provide here (a) the citations defining the context content for SWPBS, (b) the current status of evidence for each of the three tiers of the SWPBS approach (Primary Prevention, Secondary Prevention, Tertiary Prevention), and (c) summary of current and expected directions.
School-wide Positive Behavior Support School-wide Positive Behavior Support is a systems approach to establishing the social culture and behavioral supports needed for all children in a school to achieve both social and academic success. SWPBS is not a packaged curriculum, but an approach that defines core elements that can be achieved through a variety of strategies. The core elements at each of the three tiers in the prevention model are defined below: Prevention Tier Core Elements
Behavioral Expectations Defined Behavioral Expectations Taught Primary Reward system for appropriate behavior Continuum of consequences for problem behavior
26 |
Continuous collection and use of data for decision- making
Universal screening Progress monitoring for at risk students System for increasing structure and predictability System for increasing contingent adult feedback Secondary System for linking academic and behavioral performance System for increasing home/school communication Collection and use of data for decision-making
Functional Behavioral Assessment Team-based comprehensive assessment Linking of academic and behavior supports Individualized intervention based on assessment information focusing on (a) prevention of problem contexts, (b) instruction on functionally equivalent Tertiary skills, and instruction on desired performance skills, (c) strategies for placing problem behavior on extinction, (d) strategies for enhancing contingence reward of desired behavior, and (e) use of negative or safety consequences if needed. Collection and use of data for decision-making
The core elements of SWPBS are integrated within organizational systems in which teams, working with administrators and behavior specialists, provide the training, policy support and organizational supports needed for (a) initial implementation, (b) active application, and (c) sustained use of the core elements (Sugai & Horner, in press). Is there evidence indicating that SWPBS can be implemented with fidelity and is related to improved social and/or academic outcomes for students? Among the most rigorous standards for documenting that a practice/procedure is “evidence-based” is demonstration of at least two peer-reviewed randomized control trial research studies that document experimental control.To meet this standard the practice/procedure must be operationally defined, there must be formal measures of fidelity, there must be formal outcome measures, and these elements must be used within a randomized control trial group research design.

1. Issue/Concern for the Legislative Committee
The following is an issue of great concern to our school district: Due to the McCleary decision and the implementation legislation 2261 and 2776 which significantly changes the current capacity and configuration of our schools will not meet the new demands place on the utilization of current space. With the implementation of Full-Day Kindergarten, the phase-in of the K-3 Class size ratios and the implementation of STEM programs, as well as the increase in high school graduation requirements for College and Career Readiness (CORE 24) which includes the need for additional high school science labs we are out of space and resources to address these well intended improvements to the schools in Washington State. The implementation of these laws will require the addition of 96 classrooms K-3 (based on 2013-14 enrollment) and the need for 10 lab science spaces added to our current high schools in the Auburn School District.
2. Please select one of the following statements:
Ray Vefik, Board President, contacted WSSDA staff to develop a proposal. We are submitting an amendment to standing proposal number SLP 7.1.16.
WSSDA shall initiate and/or support (Please write your position statement)*
Specific standing proposal revisions:
School Construction (SLP 7.1.16) WSSDA supports “ample provision” for school construction through state policies that: • Fund school construction needs when districts are determined eligible; • Maintain a reliable system of funding that supports adequate planning at the local level; • Provide specific sources of revenue to support and enhance state trust revenue; • Give highest priority to projects that address un-housed student needs, either through new construction or remodeling • Allocate square footage to meet current and future program needs; • Recognize realistic all construction costs. Including mandated green building costs and • Equalize funding for modernization of existing school facilities in lieu of abandonment and new construction. • (Adopted 2001; Amended 2008) • Fully fund space needed to meet K-3 class size reduction targets. • Fully fund the space needed for the additional high school lab science graduation requirement. • Provide funding to create or renovate classrooms needed for STEM education.
Position statement:
WSSDA shall initiate and/or support the school construction resources: With the implementation of Full-Day Kindergarten, the phase-in of the K-3 Class size ratios and the implementation of STEM programs, as well as the increase in high school graduation requirements for College and Career Readiness (CORE 24) which includes the need for additional high school science labs we are out of space and resources to address these well intended improvements to the schools in Washington State.
3. We believe the issue should be addressed by the State Legislature.
4. Statements of Support/Explanation Please answer all six questions listed below: a. Please explain why this issue has statewide implications and should be priority of WSSDA. The reduction of class sizes and additional graduation requirements will require additional spaces to house students. These changes were not a part of the planning processes for school districts when schools were designed and constructed.
b. Explain the consequences to your district if this issue is not resolved With the targeted 17:1 in K-3 by 2017-18, the Auburn School District will need 96 additional classrooms. There will be over 1600 unhoused students in grades K-3. The district will be unable to meet requirements for class size reductions and graduation requirements.
c. What are the potential consequences to other districts? Increased need for lowering class size and increasing graduation requirements will create for almost all district classroom demands that they are unable to fulfill due to capacity.
d. How does this issue/proposal affect students and improve student learning? The two pieces of legislation that have been passed into law 2261 and 2776 are a Basic Education requirement for improving student learning and outcomes for high school graduates. Adequate facilities are critical to meet these educational requirements.
e. Costs of implementing your proposed solution? These are significant costs locally and across the state of Washington. To meet the K-3 ratios, the Auburn School District will need to construct three new elementary schools. Our current estimate is $27 million per school to construct. This does not include property acquisition costs. The amount would vary from district to district given their current space availability. The high school lab science costs will depend on renovation of existing spaces or new construction.
f. How would the proposal increase public confidence in public education The effectiveness of the instructional program requires an appropriate learning environment. The legislatures’ intend to have reduced class sizes to improve student learning and achievement cannot be accomplished without the necessary spaces to teach students. School Construction Funding (SLP 7.1.17)
1. Issue/Concern for the Legislative Committee
The following is an issue of great concern to our school district: Due to the McCleary decision and the implementation legislation 2261 and 2776 which significantly changes the current capacity and configuration of our schools will not meet the new demands placed on the utilization of current space.

The current formula does not adequately address the new changes in the square footage needed to implementation of these laws.
2. Please select one of the following statements:
Ray Vefik, Board President, contacted WSSDA staff to develop a proposal. We are submitting an amendment to standing proposal number SLP 7.1.17.
WSSDA shall initiate and/or support (Please write your position statement)*
Specific standing proposal revisions:
School Construction Funding (SLP 7.1.17) WSSDA shall support an increase to the state’s funding formulas for school construction so that the allocation of square feet per student at least meets the national average is adjusted to address the changes in class sizes 17:1 (K-3) and high school lab science graduation requirements and the cost per square foot allocation reflects actual costs, as well as the actual costs of construction for the implementation of 2261 and 2776. (Adopted 2005; Amended 2008)
Position statement:
WSSDA shall initiate and/or support the school construction resources:
With the implementation of Full-Day Kindergarten, the phase-in of the K-3 Class size ratios and the implementation of STEM programs, as well as the increase in high school graduation requirements for College and Career Readiness (CORE 24) which includes the need for additional high school science labs we are out of space and resources to address these well intended improvements to the schools in Washington State. The current formula needs to be adjusted to accommodate the phased in recommendations from 2261 and 2776, along with the McCleary decision.
3. We believe the issue should be addressed by the State Legislature, OSPI and State Board of Education.
4. Statements of Support/Explanation Please answer all six questions listed below:
a. Please explain why this issue has statewide implications and should be priority of WSSDA. The current formula does not address the change in class size and the addition of graduation requirements. These changes were not a part of the planning processes for school districts when schools were designed and constructed.
b. Explain the consequences to your district if this issue is not resolved Without an increase in the formula it would fall upon local taxpayers to fund legislative demands with local levies and bonds to cover these additional costs. The resources are not available to implement adequate facilities to accommodate class size and additional lab science spaces.
c. What are the potential consequences to other districts? Other districts would experience unhoused students due to lower class size requirements and graduation requirements would not be able to be met in the traditional school day.
d. How does this issue/proposal affect students and improve student learning? The intent of the legislation in both 2261 and 2776 is improving student learning and achievement as Basic Education requirement. Adequate facilities are critical to implement and meet these educational requirements.
e. Costs of implementing your proposed solution? These are significant costs locally and across the state of Washington. To meet the K-3 ratios, the Auburn School District will need to construct three new elementary schools. Our current estimate is $27 million per school to construct. The amount would vary from district to district given their current space availability. The high school lab science costs will depend on renovation of existing spaces or new construction.
Historically, square footage allowances have increased slightly each year for school construction cost and are projected to be $200.40 for 2014. But, these amounts are still behind the actual construction costs. Based on OSPI data for new school construction bids in 2012-13 the average was $275.95 and some costs were over $375 per square foot.
f. How would the proposal increase public confidence in public education This would restore public confidence in public education by providing adequate funding for facilities required by the legislature that would otherwise be a burden to the local taxpayers. The legislatures’ intend to have reduced class sizes to improve student learning and achievement cannot be accomplished without the necessary spaces to teach students. 2015 Legislative Session Proposal Form

1. Issue/Concern for the Legislative Committee:
The following is an issue of great concern to our school district:
When should English Language Learners be included in high stakes testing?
Every English Learner should be required to participate in the Washington Comprehensive Assessment Program (WCAP). However, in order for an ELL qualified student’s MSP/HSPE/EOC Comment [DJ1]: I would support the results to be counted as part of federal and state accountability, the student should have previously inclusion of L3 ELL student data for attained an Advanced rating (Level 3) on the annual state English language proficiency assessment assessment; however, this will contradict with Federal guidelines and may cause confusion.
