COMPREHENSIVE DISTRICT IMPROVEMENT PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
PLAN SUMMARY
2 The Greenup County School District will focus on high student performance allowing all schools to reach the state and federal goals. All resources will be coordinated to target student achievement at high levels and address identified gaps. PROCESS SUMMARY
1. When and how did your district develop its mission statement? When and how did your school community last review it?
The mission statement was developed in the initial district strategic planning process in 1993. It was written over a two-day work session with input from district staff, school staff, community members and parents. It was last reviewed when the strategic planning committee re-convened in 2001. During the 2001 review, committees composed of approximately eighty people from business leaders, school staff, parents, students, administrative staff, board members, and community lay personnel analyzed the strategic plan. Discussion, reflections, and revisions were conducted concerning mission, beliefs, goals, and vision of the Greenup County School System. The board of education provided draft copies during the April 9th, 2001 board meeting for review and open discussion. The revised plan was adopted April 9th, 2001.
2. Did the Board of Education use a Needs Assessment process aligned with Kentucky’s Standards and Indicators for District Improvement (SIDI)? If not, please identify and describe the process that was used.
Yes, the central office staff and program coordinators conducted a review of each school’s School Improvement Plan (SIP) on November 29th, 2006 and December 13th, 2006 to assure alignment within the DIP. The Standards and Indicators for School Improvement (SISI) and Standards and Indicators for District Improvement (SIDI) were reviewed assuring that all indicators for either school or district improvement were addressed. Central Office staff and program coordinators met on November 29th, 2006 and December 13th, 2006 to review the current DIP validating alignment.
Central Office staff reviewed the school SIPs and program coordinators on November 29th, 2006 using the SISI document to assure alignment. The Board of Education met with the School Based Decision Making (SBDM) Council of each school to review and discuss the plans during the month of March of 2006 before approving on June 26, 2006. Central office personnel in November/December 2006 made the revisions of the 2006-07 plan based upon revisions to schools SIP’s, and the revisions were approved within the DIP by the board of education on December 18, 2006.
A total of five (5) components are in the plan. These components are: (1) Academic Performance, (2) Learning Environment, (3) Efficiency, (4) Technology and (5) Career Education and Vocational Studies. Three (3) components were aligned with the Standards and Indicators for School Improvement and Standards and Indicators for District Improvement documents. These components are: (1) Academic Performance, (2) Learning Environment, and (3) Efficiency. Technology was a separate component added to comply with Kentucky Education Technology System (KETS), Schools and Libraries Division and Universal Service Funds. Career Education and Vocational Studies was a separate component to comply with Career Education and Vocational Studies requirements.
Needs Assessments were aligned with Standards and Indicators for District Improvement and consisted of a review of the following:
No Child Left Behind (NCLB) data including subgroup analysis
Kentucky Performance Reports (KPR) for the district and each school
3 Accountability Growth Charts of KPR
School Improvement Plan of each school
Title I surveys
Safe School Report
Family Resource Youth Service Centers (FRYSC) Surveys
District-wide Council meetings
Migrant Surveys
Homeless Surveys
English as a Second Language (ESL) Surveys
Longitudinal Data Studies
Latest Educational Research
Culture/Climate Audit all schools
Kentucky Continuous Monitoring Process for Special Education
3. When did the Board of Education complete each step of its Needs Assessment Work? If some parts were completed in past years and not repeated in the current school year, please identify those parts and when they were most recently completed.
The current plan was revised during November – December 2006 with input from all levels. Information received during the joint School Based Decision Making Council and Board of Education meetings conducted during March 2006 were incorporated into the final plan, allowing school plans to be aligned with and to impact the district plan.
Central Office staff and program coordinators reviewed the current plan on November 29th, 2006 and December 13th, 2006.
4. When did the Board of Education decide on Priority Needs, Causes, Goals, and Objectives?
The needs assessment process has been under intense review by both school employees and community members from October 2005 – December 2006. Priority Needs, Causes, Goals, and Objectives were under constant development and review during this time frame. The new Student Data Tool from KDE to analysis KPR and NCLB assessment data and TestMate Clarity software to analysis CTBS assessment data were used by both schools and district to identify district needs of all students, including NCLB subgroups. The BOE provided the public with draft copies of the CDIP for discussion, review, and input prior to final approval during the regular BOE meeting on December 18, 2006. The on-going process of monitoring the plan resulted in the latest revision in December 2006.
5. When did the Board of Education identify substantive achievement gaps, set gap targets, and adopt its time schedule for closing the gaps?
4 District assessment data (i.e. No Child Left Behind subgroups, District Kentucky Performance Report, School’s Kentucky Performance Reports) were examined by the Board of Education on August 28, 2006. The Board of Education met with all School Based Decision Making Councils in March 2006 to examine their latest accountability growth charts and revisions that incorporated the latest data from the KPR. Discussion with each school consisted of the identification of subgroup achievement gaps, setting of gap targets for all students including subgroups, setting of achievement timelines for all students and subgroups, analysis of similar high-performing districts and schools to gleam “best instructional practices”, longitudinal profile data assessment, research-based instructional strategies, and adoption of timelines and needed resources as stated in each school’s Comprehensive School Improvement Plan.
The BOE reviewed 2006 results of the NCLB, CTBS and KCCT data June-December 2006.
6. When did the Board of Education review drafts of the components?
February 23, 2004, May 23, 2005, June 26, 2006, and December 18, 2006.
7. When did the Board of Education review estimates for costs and drafts of Section 7 requests?
March/April/May/June 2006 were the review dates for cost estimates. Section 7 requests occurred during March/April/May/June 2006.
8. When was the public meeting held to present the Plan to the community, and who attended?
During the month of March 2006, the BOE had “work sessions” with all school’s SBDM where school staff, district staff, community members, parents, and media were invited to attend. The discussion during all of these meetings was the individual school’s SIP. During the regular June 26, 2006, regular BOE meeting the Plans were presented for final approval. This was an open public meeting and school staff, school SBDM, community members, parents, and media were invited to attend. The 2006-2007 DIP was adopted at the June 26, 2006 BOE meeting. Revisions were adopted and approved at the December 18, 2006 regular board meeting.
In February and March 2006, the BOE met with each SBDM council to review the revised SIP for each school. Final approval of the schools SIP’s occurred on March 27, 2006. Final approval occurred on June 26, 2006. Revisions to school plans (SIP’s) and district plan (DIP) were reviewed and approval during the December 18, 2006 board meeting.
9. When did the Board of Education officially adopt your revised Plan?
March 29, 2004, May 23, 2005, November 28, 2005, June 26, 2006, and December 18, 2006.
10. When did the Board of Education officially adopt any Section 7 requests?
April 5, 2004, April 25, 2005, May 22, 2006, April 17 & 24, 2006, June 12 & 26, 2006,
11. When and why has the Plan been revised since that data?
The plan has been, and will be, continually monitored and adjusted to fit new needs as they are identified. This would also include any changes in state or federal guidelines related to the CATS or NCLB assessments. Guidance for revisions will be taken from the following board policies, 2.442 & 1.111, and procedures, 2.442 AP.21 and 1.111 AP.2
5 Implementation and Impact check was conducted November 29, 2006, and submitted to the BOE on December 18, 2006, for approval. New revisions based upon revisions to SIPs of each school were approved by the BOE on December 18, 2006.
After completing an Implementation and Impact check on November 29, 2006, the plan was revised with changes implemented. A revised DIP was approved on December 18, 2006. Revisions for the 2006-07 DIP were approved on December 18, 2006.
12. How will you evaluate your Plan, and when?
The same process of review will be used quarterly. Review dates and Implementation and Impact Checks will occur in January, April, July and October of each year. Quarterly review will be completed by each “component leader” and each “responsible person” within all “strategies / activities” of the DIP. All schools will follow the same process for their SIP quarterly reviews. District findings and school findings will be shared during monthly administrator meetings for possible recommended revisions and refinements. Building level administers will in turn share information during school staff and council meetings for possible recommended revisions and refinements. The superintendent will in turn report quarterly findings of both the DIP and each school’s SIP to the board of education for possible revisions and refinements. Guidance for evaluation will be taken from the following board policies, 2.442 & 1.111, and procedures, 2.442 AP.21 and 1.111 AP.2
13. For each step listed above, what other stakeholders were involved and how? Include names and identify those who represent parents, teachers, other staff, other stakeholders, primary parents, migrant parents, and your community’s ethnic diversity.
