English Language Arts Strategies

Outcome

By June 2024, the percentage of students in grade 3-6 demonstrating on-grade level reading will increase by at least 5 percentage points overall and for the Black, Economically Disadvantaged, English Learner, Hispanic and SWD subgroups as measured by the Spring SOL.

Strategies

Strategy 1-Increase use of data (e.g., iReady, CORE, PASS, PRF, WIDA) to plan instruction and monitor progress for students demonstrating risk. (HLP 2-5)

Strategy 2-Increase impact of tier 2 interventions for students demonstrating risk by using FCPS-recommended programs and practices with fidelity (e.g., Lexia, UFLI). (HLP 5)

Strategy 3-Improve daily, systematic, explicit instruction in phonological awareness, phonics, and morphology in the core language arts block. (HLP 2)

Mathematics Strategies

Outcome

By June 2024, the percentage of students in grade 3-6 passing the SOL in math will increase by at least 5 percentage points overall and for the Black, Economically Disadvantaged, English Learner, Hispanic and SWD subgroups as measured by the Spring SOL.

Strategies

Embed numerous opportunities for review of concepts into the math block--"stripes" in the L.E.A.R.N lesson planning format: routines, additional E.A. segments, daily spirals etc.

Strategy 1-Increase teacher implementation of explicit instruction and other components of effective mathematics intervention.

Strategy 2-Increase systems of support during the school day, after school and summer to help students achieve success in mathematics.

Strategy 3-Schedule ESOL teacher push-in ELD instruction during math instructional time.

Wellness Strategies

Outcome

By the end of the 2023-24 school year, we will reduce our school’s chronic absenteeism rate to below 15% as evidenced by our school’s chronic absenteeism data.

Strategies

Strategy 1-Strengthening messaging to staff, students and families around attendance to school. Each stakeholder should be able to understand how daily attendance matters, not only for academic success, but because school offers an opportunity to develop social and emotional skills such as listening, paying attention, problem-solving and self-regulation, all which are needed to grow and learn.

Strategy 2-Strengthen school team practices to monitor attendance data and determine need for intervention and additional support.

Strategy 3-Increase opportunities for personalized early attendance outreach.
