N. PUPIL PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES – 2007-2008

Goal 1 2007-2008 Target Goal

By June 2008, 80% of the total eleventh grade student population will score proficient or advanced proficient range on the mathematics sections of the HSPA. Additionally, all subgroups as measured under NCLB legislation will make safe harbor in the mathematics sections of the HSPA. (10% fewer partially proficient) This will be accomplished through:

i. Early identification of students requiring remediation by using an in-house test, GEPA scores, and teacher recommendation. Ninth grade students will be placed in the remedial mathematics course, Number Sense to address mathematical deficiencies. ii. Provide each teacher with a copy of the curriculum infused with HSPA skills. Teachers will use this document as a “working curriculum”. iii. Provide each teacher with a breakdown of HSPA skills in order to help them incorporate such skills in each lesson. iv. Introduce a new software package, Study Island, to all sophomore and junior students which can be used in class and at home to reinforce HSPA skills.

This goal addresses District Goal #2 (To equip students with literacy and skills to function in a rapidly changing technological society by incorporating problem solving skills, the ability to think critically and perform critical analysis.) and Core Curriculum Content Standards Mathematics 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.14.

Descriptive Statement

By June 2008, students in the eleventh grade, including all subgroups, will develop the skills necessary to pass the HSPA that will be administered in March 2008. At a minimum, all subgroups will meet state benchmarks or safe harbor as required by NCLB.

Cumulative Progress Indicators

Students in the remedial mathematics sections will have teacher assessments through prescriptive instruction during each marking period as well as formal evaluation each marking period. Successful grades in the mathematics courses and in-house assessments will indicate a high potential for success on the HSPA.

Goal 2 2007-2008

Students learn best when they are active participants in their education. Students need to be present for instruction. To that end, by June 2008, Monmouth Regional will note a 10% decrease in the total number of individual class cuts compared to the total number class cuts (1268) during the 2006-2007 school year. This will be accomplished through:

i. Increased awareness of school policy and student behavior expectations by addressing the seriousness of class truancies. ii. The Assistant Principal will address each incident of class cutting rather than using a “teacher disciplinarian”. iii. Increased parent involvement to change student behavior. iv. Efficiently utilize the school software program (STI) in which period by period attendance will be tracked. This should diminish the amount of class period cuts.

This goal addresses District Goal IE, IF, V, VIC, VID and Core Content Standards 9.2.12 A1, A4, C, D5, F.

Descriptive Statement

By June 2008, students will develop self-discipline and learn the importance of attending classes daily in order to enrich their education..

Cumulative Progress Indicator

Students will learn the importance of attending classes daily and how such behavior enriches their education. The number individual class cuts will be reviewed in January 2008 to serve as a mid year progress report for comparison purposes.

O. Transportation Jointure

Recommend the Board approve the following transportation jointure with the following school districts for school year 2007-08 at the following prices due to Monmouth Regional High School Board of Education:
