Teachers Principal Teachers Principal Teachers Principal Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Research Supporting Development of 2015-2017 Action Steps Target A: All students are proficient in English language arts, mathematics, and science The implementation of continual evaluation of data-teams is essential for tracking student achievement and developing strategies to address areas of concern. The curriculum and instruction office has provided and continues to provide staff with the training needed to examine current expectations, develop curriculum maps, create common assessments, analyze the results and select instructional strategies that will address the needs of all students. Utilizing lessons learned during Social Justice professional development, administration and teachers are continually developing and implementing strategies designed to ensure that all students feel as if they are important and relevant members of the Pattonville Heights Educational Community. Continuing identifying and implementing researched-based best practices in English language arts arts, mathematics, and science is a guiding force at Pattonville Heights Middle School. The Professional Development Committee has coordinated with administration to devise a plan to identify and implement research based best practices in the everyday classroom instruction. By utilizing building professional development opportunities, Pattonville Heights staff is able to develop, modify, and hone their classroom practices to best meet the needs of all students. Target B: Pattonville Heights students will be responsible citizens with positive relationships The No Child Left Behind Act and revision of IDEA encourage schools to turn towards proactive approaches to discipline; the Positive Behavior Support (PBIS) is a holistic, collaborative, and preventative approach toward school discipline practices. It recognizes that there is a broad set of variables that can affect a student’s behavior. PBIS interventions are designed to be proactive in order to prevent problem behavior by altering a situation before problems escalate and to concurrently teach appropriate alternatives. School based collaborative teams that include teachers, administrators, and/or special services personnel are an essential piece of PBIS. Teams collaborate and facilitate collecting relevant data to plan, implement and evaluate strategies that are central to PBIS. Target C: Establish High Levels of Involvement and Communication between Home and School Communication between home and school is essential for the effective education of all students. All children are constantly developing and their development is a result of both genetic and environmental factors. Countless studies have emphasized the importance of family in the academic development of children. Pattonville Heights Middle School has developed and has begun the implementation of a variety of strategies designed to increase and enhance the involvement and communication between home and school. We are revising our comprehensive transitional program to aid 5th grade students and parents in their acclimation to middle school life. Additionally, we are developing a program to helps students and parents new to Pattonville School District adjust successfully. Furthermore, Pattonville staff and parents continue to increase multiple forms of communication, e.g. the school/district website, Twitter, Facebook, and e-mail, to reinforce to parent/guardians that their support is crucial to the development of their student. Target D: Increase middle school academic and athletic program offerings and opportunities Research supports extra curricular before and after school programing in the Pattonville School District. With our district focus on improving student achievement, it is important that district sponsored interscholastic programing support this emphasis. Research conducted by Stephens & Schaben (2002) found that eighth grade student participation in interscholastic sports was connected with better math grades, increased math standardized test scores, and better overall grade point averages. Interscholastic sports also keep students connected and engaged with their school. Research conducted by Yin & Moore (2004) found that participants in interscholastic sports were less likely to drop out of high school compared with nonparticipants. Moreover, extracurricular participation encourages peer interactions and exposes students to peers that have positive attitudes toward school (McNeal, 1995). Helping students build relationships and have a more positive outlook on their school experience is necessary. Mahoney (2000) states that the students that participate in extracurricular activities build positive relationships with adults who supervise the activities. Research by Mahoney and Cairns (1997) found that a varied choice of activities resulted in a greater impact because students’ individual wants and interests were more likely to be met. Pattonville is a diverse community with students coming form many backgrounds. While many students have the opportunity to participate on sports teams and attend enrichment activities that are not connected with the school district, some students do not have this opportunity. School based after school programing provides lower income students experiences similar to those of middle-class students (Posner & Vandell, 1999). Meeting the needs of all Pattonville students is a focus of our before and after school programing. Bibliography 1. Barbour, C., Barbour, N, & Scully, P.
