Identify the barriers that must be overcome for each student to achieve grade level proficiency on assessments.
There are a number of challenges that should be considered when evaluating student success in a district. Some of the key barriers that impact this school include, but are not limited to: chronic absenteeism, behavior, trauma, and increased mental health concerns.
Identify the budget actions that should be taken to address and remove those barriers.
Allocating budget to focus on prevention, detection and intervention concerning trauma and mental health issues. Currently, we have partnered with The Guidance Center to provide mental health services for our students who are enrolled in their campus programs. Also, we are able to better identify struggling students using our SAEBRs data. As mental health issues continue to grow, it would be beneficial to identify a professional development structure that could help provide staff with strategies when working with struggling students.
Identify the amount of time the board estimates it will take for each student to achieve grade level proficiency on the state assessments if the budget actions would be implemented.
There is no way to accurately predict how children will respond to our interventions because we cannot fix the daily challenges they face. Many factors impact students' academic achievement, such as daily attendance, have students eaten breakfast, is their home life adversely affecting their daily routine, do they have consistent discipline issues, are they able to focus, how many other students are in their class - just for a few examples.
