9 | b. | Percentage of students with an active IEP | 23.00% | |||||||
10 | c. | Percentage of students enrolled in English Language Learner (ELL) services | 6.00% | |||||||
11 | d. | Percentage of students identified as At-Risk (Free lunch)? | N/A | Percentage is not available, due to being <10 students. FERPA prevents the disclosure of personal identifable information. KSDE has deemed that any quantities less than 10 may be personally identifible. | ||||||
12 | e. | Pupil-Teacher Ratio Average | 6-8; 14:1 9-12; 53:1 | Our middle school pupil to instructor ratio may seem low, but we are in the first year of offering the virtual environment to 6-8 graders. Also, our 6-8 instructor manages the virtual program for the Youth Horizons Boys Ranch which equates to another 6-10 students (a ratio of 24:1). Our 9-12 instructor has an administrative assistant to aid in managing his caseload. | ||||||
13 | f. | Pupil-Teacher Ratio Median | same as average | Our virtual Instructors are assigned by grade level and manage all courses for those identified students in the assigned gradelevels. | ||||||
14 | g. | Are the needs of Foster Care Students being met? If no, what supports are needed? | Yes | The Learning Center, as the name implies, provides an online mechanism for students to catch up on credits they did not attain on schedule with other students who do not face the disruptions that come from being in foster care. Our online platform, called Edgenuity, provides students an account and access to all of their coursework. The student then receives online course instruction, takes exams, and earns course credit when they pass exams to get them back on track. | ||||||
15 | h. | Are there gaps in student success among race/ethnicity student subgroups? | Yes | Virtual learning requires access to broadband at home, devices at home, & study space at home. With additional time, allocations, and resources, these barriers can be overcome for students of different enthic groups as well as those limited by social economic status. | ||||||
16 | i. | Is there a tiered system of support to target reading growth? | Yes | Edgenuity provides the following scaffold supports for struggling readers: text to speech, read aloud, video captions & transcripts, dynamic glossary, contextually definitions, digital notebook, pause and rewind instructional videos as well as translation to text in different languages. Also, My Path 6-12 provides personalized learning programs for reading and math that deliver high-impact, engaging lessons that target the specific skills students need to get back to grade level. However the cost can limit the number of students served by My Path. | ||||||
17 | j. | Is there a tiered system of support to target math growth? | Yes | Edgenuity provides the following scaffold supports for students who struggle with math: visual and verbal cues, frequent checks for understanding, dynamic glossary, digital highlighters, sticky notes, calculators, graphic organizers, “Show me” videos and hints clarify content, and multiple worked examples and models. However, the cost can limit the number of students served by My Path. | ||||||
18 | k. | Are there local assessments to measure reading growth? | Yes | Fastbridge | ||||||
19 | l. | Are there local assessments to measure math growth? | Yes | Fastbridge | ||||||
20 | m. | Are there learning opportunities for students to focus on academic needs outside the traditional classroom setting? | Yes | Virtual learning in and of itself is non-traditional. Yet, we still proivde opportunities for students to conduct internships, job shadow, as well as dually enroll in middle/high school courses as well as college credit courses. | ||||||
21 | n. | Reviewing state assessment data, what steps are you taking for all students to maximize their scores? | Yes | In the vitural learning environment KSDE requires instruction to be asynchronous (anytime, anywhere). Due to this factor, students can not be required to attend sessions in-person or virtually, but can be encouraged. We have looked at offering sessions on criticial thinking skills, test taking strategies, as well as offering the interim assessments (pracitice exams provided by the State) to maximize State Assessment Scores. | ||||||
22 | o. | Are there set targets/goals to move students out of proficiency Levels 1 and 2 on state assessments? | No | Not at this time. Our focus has been on supporting students who come to our school credit deficient. Our team feels it is more important to support these students with credit deficiencies while working toward a diploma. With additional time, allocations and resources goals can be established and monitored. | ||||||

Maintain a 95% or higher participation rate on State Assessments and 3.) Reduce our dropout rate. These goals are directly related to postsecondary success as well as our plan of assistance with KSDE. | ||||||
31 | g | How are you ensuring students are civically engaged? | Community outreach programs and community service with extracurricular sports/activities & content specific lessons | Since we are a virtual school, we are in the process of trying to embedd assignments that incorporate the different facets of civic engagement. The following are examples: Social Change Autobiography- students reflect on their own identities, positionality, values, beliefs, biasess and personal experiences that inform their understanding and interent in social changes; Community Reseach Assignment- students read and write about social change issues relevant to the community; Researching Historic Social Change Efforts; Participating in Community Service Project;and/or Compose a letter to an Elected Official. Again, additional time, allocations, and resources are needed to reach this endeavor. | ||||||

33 | SECTION 3: Curriculum Needs | Notes | ||||||||
34 | a. | What extended learning opportunities are provided (after school programs, summer school programs, etc.)? | Tutoring, Credit Recovery, & Summer School | Virtual Learning offers flexability for students to complete school work at their convenience (24/7). The courses are self-paced which allows for individualized instructrion. Lastly, we do offer Summer School as a means of support for credit deficient students who wish to participate. | ||||||
35 | b. | Are there appropriate and adequate instructional materials? | No | Edgenuity crriculum is grounded in research and aligned to State Standards, the national standards, and the NGSS. Courses combine direct-instruction videos featuring expert, on-screen teachers with rigorous assignments, performance tasks and assessments to engage students and ensure subject-area mastery. Further State funding is needed to add addtional courses (electives as well as interventions (My Path). | ||||||
36 | c. | Is current technology appropriate? If no, what technology is needed to support the curriculum? | No | Technology capabilities can vary from household to household. Yet with additional time, allocations, and resouces this barrier can be overcome for all families. | ||||||

Opportunities are provided to develop networks with peers and adults. However, a low percentage of students choose not to engage, or struggle with social/emotional issues which limits participation. With additional time, funds and resources all students can connect and engage to seek out these opportunities. | |||||||
42 | 2. Sufficient knowledge of economic, social, and political systems to enable students to make informed choices. | No | The majority virtual students develop intrapersonal skills (goal-setting, self-awareness, productivity, resilience, resourcefulness), as well as interpersonal skills (teamwork, empathy, inclusiveness, influence, and responsiveness). Opportunities are provided to develop both sets of skills. However, a low percentage of students choose not to engage, or struggle with social/emotional issues. With additional time, funds and resources eventually all students can receive sufficient knowledge. | |||||||
43 | 3. Sufficient understanding of governmental processes to enable the student to understand the issues that affect his or her community, state and nation. | No | This capacity is primarily addressed in junior/senior level courses. | |||||||
44 | 4. Sufficient self-knowledge and knowledge of his or her mental and physical wellness. | Yes | Virtual students are exposed to physical and mental well-being behaviors through the courses completed and participation in extra-curricular activities. Healthy physical behaviors addressed in the curriculum include: adequate exercise, proper nutrution, and abstaining from harmful habits. Emotional and social facets include: optimism, self-esteem, self-acceptance, commuication, and creating a support network of family and friends. | |||||||
45 | 5. Sufficient grounding in the arts to enable each student to appreciate his or her cultural and historical heritage. | No | Currently, courses in the arts do not cover the full cultural and historical heritages of our student demographics. Virtual learning offers valuable alternatives to traditional classrooms, but also present challenges. Virtual teachers must find ways to combat feelings of isolation among students and help them stay motivated in distracting home environments. Additionally, teachers managing virtual learners must overcome any barriers that may block culturally responsive teaching. An important step in creating a culturally responsive atmosphere involves recognizing one’s own potential biases and how one’s personal identification influences their perceptions. Teachers can then consider how such things affect communication or shape expectations of different students. With greater awareness, teachers can root out implicit biases that may inhibit their ability to communicate with parents or cause them to overlook opportunities to include more representative instructional materials. With additional time, funds, and resources appropriate and effective professional development could be implemented for staff to promote cultural diversity for virtual learners. | |||||||
46 | 6. Sufficient training or preparation for advanced training in either academic or vocational fields so as to enable each child to choose and pursue life work intelligently. | Yes | All virtual students develop an Indvidualized Plan of Study (IPS), which is critical for supporting students in determining and maintaining a career path or post secondary education. | |||||||
47 | 7. Sufficient levels of academic or vocational skills to enable students to compete favorably with their counterparts in surrounding states, in academics or in job market. | Yes | All virtual students who earn a diploma have the necessary academic/vocational skills to enable them to be gainfully employed as well as continue on to postsecondary education if pursued/required. | |||||||

49 | SECTION 5: Staff Needs | Notes | ||||||||
50 | a. | Is there adequate personnel/staff to meet the needs of the school and the needs of students under ESEA guidelines, which requires every classroom to contain an educator who is certified in the content area being taught in said classroom, and meet the goals of the school? | No | Currently, The Learning Center shares counseling/social worker staff with the high school as well as the director. Utlimately, The Learning Center would benefit from a full time counselor, and a full time director/teacher position as well as a special education instructor to help support virtual learners. Additional funding is needed in order to add staff. | ||||||
51 | b. | How many classified support staff are currently employed? | 1 | The Learning Center has one administrative assistant. | ||||||
52 | c. | How many classified support staff are needed? | 3 | 1 Admin assistant , 1 para and 1 Custodian; adding positions would require additional funding. | ||||||
53 | d. | Are there enough appropriately licensed support personnel such as counselors, librarians, nurses, etc.? | No | The Learning Center shares counseling and social work staff with Vally Center High School. A nurse is not required since the students are virtual learniers. Additonal funding would be required to add the appropriate support staff. | ||||||
54 | e. | Are principals & other key staff trained to provide instructional leadership and professional development to teachers? | Yes | The Learning Center has been working with Kansas Learning Network to implement systematic evidence-based practices to ensure the appropriate staff are trained. | ||||||
55 | f. | What staff development is necessary for teachers to support student success and meet the school improvement goals? | Social Emotional, Ongoing Standards Alignment, Differentiation, High Impact Teaching Strategies, Tiered Supports, Improving Virtual Communication, Edgenuity Updates, Online Engagement Strategies, Providing Feedback, and Building Connections | A lot of the time, outside expertise is required to aequately address staff needs which requires additional funds and resources. | ||||||
56 | ||||||||||
57 | SECTION 6: Facility Needs | Notes | ||||||||
58 | a. | Is there adequate space for student learning? | No | Recently Sedgwick County Special Education COOP (9 schools) dissolved into 3 separate COOPs. In the transition, Valley Center became one of the three host districts. So, USD # 262 had to find a location for the 18-21 Year Old Program. The decision was made to acquire a room at The Learning Center. This is a short term fix as the Districts's Technology Department, TLC Virtual Program, and 18-21 Year Old Program are housed in the building and each program/department will need to expand as the district continues to grow. Additional time, allocations, and resource are needed to address the facility spaces required. | ||||||
59 | b. | Are there necessary repairs and/or adjustment to the existing space that need to be made? | Yes | As aforementioned, each of the the three programs/deparments (Technology, TLC, 18-21 Year Old Program) are growing, the facility will either need to be expanded or one of programs will need to be moved to another space, or a new facilty will need to be built which requies additional time, funds, and resources. | ||||||
60 | c. | Are additional School Buses needed or any additional Routes needed? | Yes | Yes, if additional funding and drivers were available for hire for students less than 2.5 miles | ||||||
61 | ||||||||||
62 | SECTION 7: Family Needs/Community Relations | Notes | ||||||||
63 | a. | Do you have regular events to engage parents with teachers? | Yes | Being a virtual school, parents are reluctant to engage in events. Yet, we have had success with the following events: enrollment orientation, conferences (in-person/virtual), 1-on-1 meetings, college fairs and Hornet Palooza. | ||||||
64 | b. | What types of caregiver training programs (teaching guardians how to give students help with homework, use technology that students will be required to use, etc.) are provided? | Parent/Student Orientation | When a student enrolls in the virtual program, the student and parent are required to attend an orientation meeting. During the meeting student expectations are discussed. Taking classes online is very different than taking classes in person. In order for students to be successful online, they must:
• Be Self-motivated and self-disciplined- With the freedom and flexibility of the online environment comes responsibility. • The online process takes a real commitment and discipline to keep up with the flow of the process. • Be willing and able to commit to 20 hours per week- Online is not easier than the traditional educational process. In fact, many students will say it requires much more time and commitment. • Be able to meet the minimum requirements for the program- The requirements for online are no less than that of any other quality educational program. • The successful student will view online as a convenient way to receive their education – not an easier way. • Participate in the virtual classroom 5-7 days a week • Be able to use the technology properly • Be able to complete assignments on time Enjoy communicating in writing Likewise, parents are trained on the Learning Management System's ( Edgenuity) Parent Portal and dashboard: • Dashboard: provides a quick-glance snapshot of student’s progress and grades • Messages: Parents can view and reply to any communications made between their student and the instructors • Course Information: Parents can view their student’s courses, description, credit count, and teacher-contact information • Academic Snapshot: Provides an overall progress bar for all of their student’s courses and specific progress bars for each class enrolled in • Suggested Pacing: A progress bar and weekly assignment goals showing the current pace and whether their student is on track with the targeted completion date • Student Activity: A tally of the total number of assignments their student has completed each day in the courses • Course Plan: A plan that puts their student on track for graduation • View Transcript: A record of their student’s current grades and credits earned in classes • School Calendar: A calendar of their student’s current appointments or conferences • External Links: Links to popular and helpful resources when navigating or to support their student’s online experience | ||||||
65 | c. | Do you have an active Site Council? | Yes | The Learning Center has a Site Council that is BOE approved and meets once a quarter each year. | ||||||
66 | d. | Do you have active PTO, PTA, Booster Club, or other organizations with parent leadership? | Yes | The Learning Center provides students and parents an option other than the traditional school setting at Valley Center High School. Virtual students can be dually enrolled in both buildings, so a lot of the parent organizations are shared, such as Booster Club, since virtual students are allowed to participate in Vally Center High School extra-curricular activities. | ||||||
67 | e. | What types of communication exists with families? Is it adequate? | Yes | Communication is the responsibility of The Learning Center director, virtual instructors, and the administrative assistant. Information for daily and special events is disseminated through various forms of communication. These communication tools include district website, email, text messaging, school messenger, Remind App, LMS communications and personal phone calls. | ||||||
68 | f. | What types of communication/social media exists with your community? Is it adequate? | Yes | Communication/Social Media: Twitter, Facebook, Building/District Website, Student Data Messaging (Infinite Campus), Texting, Phone Calls, email and Ark Valley Newspaper. | ||||||
