Program #7– PRIVATE NON-PROFIT (PNP) SCHOOLS PARTICIPATION Saint Paul Christian Academy (SPCA) – Innovative Math, Reading, Data Collection Supplement
Objectives Activities Evaluation/Accomplishment/Status of Objectives 1. 100% of students in grades
Pre-K through 3rd grade will perform at grade level in Math & English or above grade level.
2. School Teachers and
Administrative Staff will be able to report student progress Monthly, Quarterly, and annually through various standardized tests and methods.
1.1 Students will work through a research-proven software that supplements their Math & English Curriculum.
1.2 Students will take regular tests that will track their academic progress.
2.1 Teachers will submit monthly and quarterly reports to Administration to show progress of students
2.2 School Administrative Staff will submit monthly and quarterly reports to students and parents that show student progress.
1. Administration observed teacher lesson plans through
the student information system to ensure that all lessons applied the “technology in the classroom” e-books and supplemental software. Students utilized e-books (interactive on-line books with interactive tutorials, interactive labs, and interactive assessments) during in-class activities and assignments.
2. Administration scheduled informal/ formal observations of classrooms in all grade levels to ensure that “technology in the classroom” was being implemented (observation for utilization of netbooks, laptops, electronic boards, etc). Teachers utilized power point presentations, interactive labs and simulations to deliver lessons in class. Administration monitored and evaluated student academic performance through the use of the student information system. Students and teachers have demonstrated greater confidence in utilizing the e-books and the web-based grade book. Administration is currently working on transferring data for the new SIS called PinPoint.
Program #7– PRIVATE NON-PROFIT (PNP) SCHOOLS PARTICIPATION Asmuyao Community School (ACS) – Student Alternative Individualized Learning (SAIL) – At Risk
Objective Activities Evaluation/Accomplishment/Status of Objectives 100% of ACS students given pre-test in each subject area enrolled. 50% of students will complete COPES, COPS interest and needs survey. 50% of students will receive feedback on survey results. 75% of ACS full time students enrolled in Math, Science, Reading, and Language Arts will score at 50% or better in their post-test by the end of the 18 week semester.
Teachers administer pre-tests. Students will be given CAPES, CAPS, COPES, assessment. Teachers will go over results of CAPES, CAPS, COPES survey to develop customized lessons based on student’s results of CAPES, CAPS, COPES, and use this lesson plan to guide student learning throughout the semester. Textbooks provide lessons and exercises in Math, Reading, Language Arts, Social Studies, and Science that will coincide with student portfolios and performance standards. Teacher assessments are another method used to monitor and measure student performance and success during the course of study.
• Each student was provided a pre test and results are included in their student portfolio.
• Survey forms were distributed to students and completed forms were collected. Data is being compiled for evaluation
• Each student signed that they reviewed and received results of CAPES, COPS, COPES, and filed in their student portfolio. Data is being compiled for evaluation.
• Lesson plans for each student were filed by teacher to show customized lessons reflecting results of individualized interest.
• Data results of tracked student performance during the 18 week semester are being compiled for evaluation. Post-tests were administered and data is being compiled for evaluation.
