The process focuses school and district improvement efforts on student needs by bringing together all stakeholders to plan for improvement, by focusing planning efforts on priority needs and closing achievement gaps between subgroups of students, by building upon school and district capacity for high quality planning, and by making connections between the funds that flow into the district and the priority needs in schools. Your school's plans for improvement must be based on careful and honest analysis of data, address all content areas, and clearly address gaps in student achievement.

KDE Comprehensive School Improvement Plan Conner High School Introduction Every school has its own story to tell. The context in which teaching and learning takes place influences the processes and procedures by which the school makes decisions around curriculum, instruction, and assessment. The context also impacts the way a school stays faithful to its vision. Many factors contribute to the overall narrative such as an identification of stakeholders, a description of stakeholder engagement, the trends and issues affecting the school, and the kinds of programs and services that a school implements to support student learning. The purpose of the Executive Summary (ES) is to provide a school with an opportunity to describe in narrative form the strengths and challenges it encounters. By doing so, the public and members of the school community will have a more complete picture of how the school perceives itself and the process of self-reflection for continuous improvement. This summary is structured for the school to reflect on how it provides teaching and learning on a day to day basis. SY 2015-2016 Page 3 © 2015 Advance Education, Inc.

KDE Comprehensive School Improvement Plan Conner High School Description of the School Describe the school's size, community/communities, location, and changes it has experienced in the last three years. Include demographic information about the students, staff, and community at large. What unique features and challenges are associated with the community/communities the school serves? Conner High School is a four-year comprehensive high school that is accredited by AdvancED. We serve students in grades nine through twelve from northern Boone County. Conner High School is governed by a school-based council under policies established by the Boone County Board of Education. Our current enrollment of 1408 students consists of a varying demographic, from suburban to rural socioeconomic classification. Our free and reduced lunch membership is 30% and has increased by approximately 7% over the last three years. Over that same period of time, we have experienced an increased amount of students deemed as "homeless" and have worked to provide both effective transportation and educational opportunities. The community in which Conner serves has changed over the past three years by growth in both middle to upper class housing as well as an increase in low income housing. This has resulted in a widely varied student demographic. The staff consists of approximately 122 members, about 94 of which are certified. The average tenure of a teacher is approximately 16 years, with very few teachers having three years or less experience. All certified staff are highly qualified and certified in the area and courses that they teach. The students of Conner High School are provided both a challenging and rigorous core curriculum, which leads them to a vast selection of electives. These electives include pathways leading to industry standard certifications, college credits through dual enrollment or AP courses, and internship opportunities. Over the past three years, the curriculum at Conner High School has expanded and grown to include such programs as Aerospace Technology, Media Publishing, and Coding Classes. Another unique feature of the Conner school community is our work with community partners to support the educational process both financially and logistically by providing the means and the people to support those initiatives. Citi, Ellison Surface Technologies, Performance Auto Body, and Master Provisions, among others ,are all currently serving as educational partners in our community through projects. We offer a range of courses to meet the needs of our students in accord with our mission statement: "The mission of Conner High School is to assist students in the transition from adolescence to adult life. Providing a rigorous program of study will prepare all students for post- secondary options. Encouraging diversity of thought and skill development facilitates lifelong learning. We are steadfast in our dedication to building strong relationships with students, parents, community, and faculty to make education relevant to students' personalized needs." A collaborative special education model is being used to address the needs of special populations in the least restrictive environment. Differentiation of instruction training has been received by the faculty in order to meet the needs of varying levels of ability, from students with disabilities to students who are identified as gifted and talented. Incoming freshmen are being pre-tested to determine gaps in instruction in order to meet their needs and decrease the ninth grade retention rate. Extended School Services are provided for students who are identified as at-risk. Data and reports are analyzed regularly to determine what steps are needed to ensure that all students are achieving to their potential. By providing equal access for both genders as well as race and disability, all students are working towards career and college readiness standards. SY 2015-2016 Page 4 © 2015 Advance Education, Inc.

It is also used to make multimedia presentations to and by students. For example, our in- house television studio is used by our students to produce a daily news show that is aired through the network. SY 2015-2016 Page 5 © 2015 Advance Education, Inc.

KDE Comprehensive School Improvement Plan Conner High School School's Purpose Provide the school's purpose statement and ancillary content such as mission, vision, values, and/or beliefs. Describe how the school embodies its purpose through its program offerings and expectations for students. Conner High School opened its doors for the first time on October 15, 1970 with less than 600 students in grades 10 - 12. It was built as a result of the overcrowded conditions at Boone County High School. The land for the new school was donated by the Conner family, and it was decided that the school would be named in remembrance of this generous donation. In 2015, Conner High School graduated its forty fifth class.

But among young people from 12 to 24 years of age, alcohol abuse is increasing at least twice the rate. Drug abuse, too, is an increasingly serious factor in all aspects of the lives of our youth, as each day's news sadly confirms. The National Federation and its members believe that this chemical epidemic among students will not recede by itself. The battle requires effective education and prevention programs — programs to help students resist the peer pressure that engenders chemical abuse, programs that can take chemical abuse out of style in our society.
