IV. Comprehensive Needs Assessment Components A. Data Analysis (See Appendix A) It is the goal of Alpine Vista to improve the scores of all students who are not performing at a proficient or advanced performance level. We have transitioned to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) and grades 3rd-8th took the SBAC tests in the spring of 2016, as well as our district benchmarks. In examining Language Performance Task Trimester 3 Performance Data, the implementation of a school wide writing focus in all grade levels and subject areas contributed to our grade level scores being at or above 50% Proficient and Advanced. We believe that as a K-8 school, our students will have the experience K-8 with CCSS and the scores will improve throughout the intermediate to middle grades. The Alpine Vista staff implemented specific strategies during the 2015-2016 school year; which allowed students to be be given more opportunities to extend accountable talk and academic language discussions to their writing across curricular areas, as observed by learning walks and Learning Focused Conversations. The leadership team discussed at Alpine Vista all K-8 are expected to be higher level thinkers and demonstrate how to authentically check for understanding. Speak and write in complete sentences utilizing academic language. Understand the task being demonstrated. Positively engage during collaboration and conversation using accountable talk. Students will know teachers and peers will hold them accountable.

B. Surveys Staff Survey - Our staff survey conducted in the spring of 2016 indicated that all of the teachers have built good relationships with students and colleagues. The staff feels they can ask office staff, principal and vice principal and support staff for assistance or help. The majority of the staff feels the culture at Alpine Vista is positive among staff on campus. The majority of the staff feels students being disrespectful to staff and other students is a concern. The majority of the staff feels they would like to have more staff development focus on using technology in the classroom and Depths of Knowledge tasks. Student Survey - Overall, the student survey results were very positive. Areas of concern were that 37% of the students indicated that they feel students do not treat others with respect, which was an area of concern from last year's survey results on that same question and 53% of the students don't know how to report things anonymously like on Sprigeo. Parent Survey - The participation of parents in the survey was lower than the previous year. 48% of our parents completed the annual survey with positive responses for each question.

C. Classroom Observations Based upon staff conversations, principal observations, and grade level meetings, the following needs are evident:  Alpine Vista teachers will continue to utilize 21st Century skills to infuse technology in the classroom.  Staff development will continue to focus on planning lessons around common core, DOK levels of questions and activities, opportunities to extend accountable talk and academic language discussions to writing across curricular areas, authentically checking for understanding  Staff will continue to utilize common core standards through grade level planning and cross grade level articulation.  Staff will continue to hold students accountable for speaking in complete sentences.  Staff will collaborate in Learning Focused Conversation meetings to discuss and analyze results of grade level and district level assessments (STAR, DIBELS, District Assessments, CAASPP)  Instructional Rounds and Classroom Mosaic will be conducted to provide immediate feedback for teachers to improve their craft.

D. Student Work and School Documents The data reflected are SBAC Scores 2016 and Trimester 3 district wide assessments indicates the following: SBAC Percentage of Students who Met and Exceeded Standards in ELA: 3rd: 33.7%, 4th: 41.3%, 5th: 40.7%, 6th: 40.8%, 7th: 41.0%, 8th: 45.7% The Single Plan for Student Achievement

SSC/ELAC Monitor and Review Findings from March 1, 2016: All findings focused on the district priorities and focus with attention given to student engagement, depth of knowledge (questions and tasks), and checks for understanding (questions teachers asked and authentic ways to check). Engagement - In most classrooms if students were involved in higher level or authentic tasks students were more engaged. Students were engaged when they were working with each other in teams, exploration, or on an engaging task, this occurred in most classrooms. When the teacher was engaged and excited in the learning, students were authentically engaged and everyone was present in the lesson (many classrooms). In some classrooms, students were compliantly engaged in mid to lower level tasks. Most classrooms K-3 teachers are holding students accountable for speaking in complete sentences and in 4-8 teachers and students were holding each other to accountable talk and working in collaborative groups (most classrooms). In most classrooms the teacher employed strategies that got students involved and authentically engaged in the lesson through collaboration, Kagan strategies, and higher level authentic tasks. All classrooms students were actively engaged in the learning, but there were also numerous classrooms where students were authentically engaged in the learning. Meaning they owned the learning and interacted with the teacher, each other and technology. (High level of student owning the learning)

Depths of Knowledge- Most classrooms students were given hands on tasks (levels 3-4) that included the use of manipulatives or technology and students were allowed to collaborate. Students were exposed to higher level tasks in most classes 4-8 which included things like making their own comic strip/cartoon/newscast or where they utilized technology to work collaboratively, or were required to identify, examine or evaluate their work. Some classrooms there were a lot of students who were allowed to critique, question (at various levels), problem solve and students were engaged and held to a high standard during group’s task/project.

Check for Understanding - Most classroom teacher had prepared questions to ask that required students to collaborate and think. Most classroom questions were asked that required students to elaborate on another students answers or to justify their thinking. Students were held accountable for specific vocabulary based on the lesson and were asked to answer the questions asked utilizing the vocabulary and accountable talk. In a few classrooms thinking maps were utilized as a system to check for understanding (ex: compare and contrast, categorizing, etc.).

Recommendations -All recommendations on the district priorities and focus with attention given to student engagement, depth of knowledge (questions and tasks), and checks for understanding (questions teachers asked and authentic ways to check). All classrooms need to have a clearly stated common core, project-based, 21st century lessons in each grade level. Evidence that most grade levels plan together, plan projects with grade level and commit to teaching at a specific time to show that everyone is working together, needs to be all classrooms. All classrooms need to show evidence of pre-planned open-ended questions that teachers asked students and that require students to think and justify. All tasks should push students to problem solve, collaborate and think. Grade levels need to focus on the assignments/tasks that are given when planning and incorporate questions that are higher level (pre-planned). Students need to work on asking higher level questions when working collaboratively. Teachers need to continue to work collaboratively in grade levels to get students involved and engaged in higher level tasks.

E. Analysis of Current Instructional Program (See Appendix B) Alpine Vista is meeting sixteen of the sixteen performance goals. As a staff, we are still working on using data that will help drive instruction to meet the new Common Core Standards. As we have transitioned into Common Core, our assessments are being realigned to match instruction which will in turn allow teachers to modify instruction. The Single Plan for Student Achievement

Appendix E - Home/School Compact It is important that families and schools work together to help students achieve high academic standards. Through a process that included teachers, families, and students, the following are agreed upon roles and responsibilities that we, as partners, will carry out to support student success in school and life. Student Pledge: Alpine Vista students joined staff and parents to develop ideas about how they can succeed in school and reach for the stars in math and reading. Students thought of the following ideas to make connections between learning at home and school. Students set goals with their teachers and parents. They are all individual and specific to the student.

Parents Pledge: Alpine Vista parents joined staff to develop the following ideas about how families can support students’ success in reading and math. Read with your child every day. Ask them questions about their work and ask them to show and explain things to you. Include high-impact actions for each grade level, designed by grade-level teams with parents.

Staff Pledge: Teachers will work with students and their families to support students’ success in meeting or exceeding the Common Core State Standards in reading and math. Some of our key ways to connect with families will be: School Site Council Visits of classrooms Parent visits to classrooms Back to School Night to explain curriculum Open House to showcase curriculum Communication to parents about projects they are doing through emails, parent link or notes with examples home Parents can volunteer in the classroom to assist with common core lessons

FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDED PROGRAMS 2016-2017

On an annual basis the Tulare City School District receives State and Federal funds to supplement the core curriculum. These funds are used for all students and students of significant sub-groups who are identified as not meeting academic standards, especially those who are socio-economically disadvantaged. The specific uses of these funds are described in the school’s Single Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA)/Title I School Wide Plan (SWP) and the district’s Local Education Agency (LEA) Plan. School site’s SPSA/SWP and the district’s LEA Plan are developed in collaboration with School Site Councils (SSC), District Advisory Committee (DAC), District English Language Advisory Committee (DELAC), and Migrant Parent Advisory Council (PAC), teachers, district specialist, principals and district administrators. Each SPS/SWP and the LEA Plan are revised annually to meet the changing needs of students, parents, and staff and to meet State and Federal (No Child Left Behind) requirements. Tulare City School District’s Funded Programs are as follows: 1.

Title I, Part A (Helping Disadvantaged Students Meet Standards) – A federally-funded program for the purpose of meeting the needs of students who are at risk of failing to meet state and/or district standards in reading, language arts, or math. Services and materials supplement and work in concert with the base/core programs.

2.

Title II, Part A (Improving Teacher Quality State Grants) – A federally-funded program that focuses on increasing the academic achievement of all students by helping schools and school districts improve teacher and principal quality and ensure that all teachers are highly qualified.

3. Title III – A federally funded program provides funding for Limited English Proficient (LEP) students. These funds are used for professional development for school staffs, instructional support, curricular development, and parent involvement for activities that provide instructional support related to English Language Development and academic achievement for LEP students. Parent Involvement is an important part of implementing funded programs. Tulare City School District conducts the following parent involvement activities related to funded programs: 1. School site Council (SSC) – The SSC is composed of parents, students (secondary school) and school personnel. The SSC is responsible for developing, implementing, and evaluating the School Wide Plan programs. Members serve for one year and are elected by their peers. Elections for new members are held annually at the end of the school year. 2.

English Learner Advisory Committee (ELAC) – All schools enrolling 21 or more English Learners are required to form an ELAC. The ELAC is composed of parents and school personnel. The ELAC provides input and makes recommendations to the principal, staff, and SSC regarding services for English Learners. Members serve for one year. Parents elect parents. The ELAC is formed each year.

3.

Annual Title I Meeting – All schools receiving Title I Funds are required to hold an annual Title I Meeting in which all parents of participating students are invited. The purpose of the meeting is to explain the Title I program and services and to provide parents with an opportunity to have input in the planning and implementation of the Title I Program.

4.

District Advisory Committee (DAC) – DAC is an advisory committee for all programs in the Consolidated Application which are listed as follows: Title I, Title II and Title III.

5.

District English Learner Advisory Committee (DELAC) – Whenever there are 51 or more Ell students in a school district, a DELAC is formed consisting of at least one parent member from each ELAC. Other school and district level staff may be on the DELAC as long as the parents are in the majority.

Half of my grade level is positive and half always negative no matter what! 



Trying to get all teachers on board but one wants to continue to do their own thing

    

When we get the chance to sit down, plan, and talk absolutely. When they were on site they were helpful but none of the ones I traveled to attend were. I have only gone to one meeting when I learned about Google classrooms that I felt was useful. Literally, one of the management ones I went to told us to seat kids on benches outside if they don't follow the rule... Really... what a waste of my time. That is the most frustrating. Most trainings were on areas I feel I am proficient at teaching and felt that they were a waste of time... :( Many of the topics are not useful to me because I already do/know it.

POSITIVE 

We got a ton of Yes, absolutely and I am so blessed to work here. People go out of their way to help. Most want other staff members to be successful

OTHER COMMENTS  

      

Most of the staff is positive. I know the lounge is a place for teachers to vent, but talking about students at every break, and lunch is too much. I know every once in a while we vent, but it shouldn't be constant. I feel like the staff is positive when it comes to figuring out the different ways to help the 7th and 8th graders be successful. For the most part the 7/8 grade staff is positive towards what each other is doing and willing to help each other out. Mostly but not always. Teachers are stressed - I get that! I feel the culture is overall positive, but there are certain staff members who are rude, unwilling to collaborate, or gossip-y which makes it difficult to have positive connections with colleagues. For the most part, yes. Some grade levels/staff members are more negative/"complain-y" and "clique-y" than others Yes wish we did more staff things together there is a definite divide between upper grade and lower and they don't mingle, not even in the lounge Most, some are in cliques or just don't have much contact with in order to get to know them better. Not really. There are several times I have passed by a colleague in close proximity and said hello or good morning and received no response what so ever. Does it really take that much energy to have a positive attitude towards others? I feel sometimes our staff feels are though if you are not a part of a certain group you are not worth talking to. There are some cliques here.

I feel our culture on campus is positive among students.            

A lot of YES comments Some teachers try to build positive connections with their students. However, I think a lot of the times we forget we were a young student at one time and made a lot of mistakes that need positive guidance. For the most part I would agree with this, many students feel that it's too strict but I think they would say that no matter what. I have heard a lot from students this year that there is a lot of bullying name calling and students just not being nice to each other. I would like to see students talk to each other in a more respectful manner and treat each other with more respect on a daily basis. Respect, we need to model and teach it! Kids enjoy school and all of the activities. I see much more positive kids than the other Students remain disrespectful towards adults and each other. Most of the students are positive. In the beginning of the year for next year, we really need to enforce what the culture at Alpine Vista is expected to be, to help support the new students coming from other schools, especially middle school. For the most part. Many of our students are mean and judgmental of each other and staff. Yes!!! I love that staff wants kiddos to be successful no matter what! :)

                  

No, I think this area needs to be worked on through out the 7/8. The students do not know how to be respectful to each other or how to help each other out. I believe they think being negative/picking on each other is how to be a good friend but instead it is creating negativity and drama. For the most part, but I do worry, when I get the feeling that a teacher genuinely doesn't like a student :(. Overall, yes. However I have heard my students complain about the inappropriate talk and foul language used at break and lunch by their peers. Not always, no. Really depends on the grade level(s), I think. Older students are frequently unkind or rude to each other. We are certainly trying, but it helps to collaborate with other teachers to determine best practices for maintaining that culture. I think that our staff strives to provide and promote a positive culture and environment for students. The kids seem to have a positive attitude about our school. I feel that most students are positive toward each other. Most of the students that are positive toward each other are positive toward staff. I feel that most staff are positive toward students. I feel overall our culture is positive with student too. I know some of us are closer to some students than others which is why it is good we work as a team, so we help each other when someone has a better relationship with a kid than maybe we do. I t can always improve I feel they could be more respectful of one another Sometimes- just speaking about my classroom. This year I feel that the students were negative with each other, always looking for something to get others in trouble. Can be improved on...it is not negative, but it is not where I want it to be. Concerns about upper grade. I think it has improved greatly this year. Yes, I wish there was more positive recognition for the great kids. The students respond well to teachers, and teachers respond well to students. There is mutual respect. The campus culture is definitely positive. Primary - yes Not sure in upper grades Students are a different breed this year. They are positive when they know others are watching, however, some are very mean to each other when they think the wont be caught. Yes, we are treating them as family. It takes a village to raise children and we do resemble a village.

I feel supported by the RTI teacher.  

Lots of YES

 

Yes, awesome RTI teacher. Always positive and resourceful.

I feel that when she is needed she is always willing to help me out. When confused on any issues pertaining to materials or educational programs she is a great resource to go to. Yes, I feel comfortable asking Angela questions and she always relays the question to someone else if she doesn't know and gets back to me.



Absolutely- always there to offer assistance or just ask how programs are working in the classroom. I feel like she is always trying to reach out to us and make things better.

 

The RTI teacher is totally on top it. She keeps us organized and informed. She is full of great ideas. Absolutely. Extremely supported and willing to help and solve any issues.

I feel supported by the counselor    

  

Lots of YES Very supportive in handling issues for the betterment of my students which help them to be more successful in my class. Meeting with the student and reaching out to the parents has been helpful as well. Yes and time i have come to him with a concern or needing to make contact with a student i believe it has happened. It would be helpful if the counselor would email teachers and respond when they email him with a student's problem. I understand that he doesn't need to see all students that we email him about or he is already dealing with them but it would be nice to have a short email that says got it or taking care of it. That way we know that he is on campus and got our message. I don't care if he gives details just that he has seen our email. Agree. The interaction, support individually and emails/communications are greatly appreciated. Definitely. He has even offered to help in areas that he is not directly responsible for. Yes, although I have never needed anything from the counselor he has always asked if things were going well.

I feel supported by the vice principal               

Yes, he has been a great support system when needed. Yes! It's been great knowing that we have someone to back us up with behavioral issues. Yes. I have only had a few things come up with my students and were fairly easily resolved but I feel he would support. Mike has come a long way since he started here. He has become more confident in his role as VP. I enjoy working with him in all areas of our school. I feel like since January he has really be supportive. He backs us up when we send him not only discipline problems but supporting us when we want to give a student dentition. You can tell administration is spread thin on such a big campus, but overall yes. Awesome dude!!! Appreciate his support, his interaction and being ever present. Yes. Vice principal is supportive with discipline referrals. Follows up quickly on referrals. Definitely. Even if multiple issues were occurring at the same time, he followed through to provide support. Yes, I like how he takes care of discipline right away. Yes, I feel that he supported me with my tough students. And checking in on my students that were having a difficult time. He has done a lot to help with some of my troubled kids! The vice principal is really supportive and will back up teachers at any point. Yes. Quick to respond to emails and pulls students when requested. Yes. He has done a great job with discipline the second half of this year.

I feel supported by the principal              

Indeed. I feel that my principal has been very supportive of me since becoming part of Alpine Vista. I enjoy the open door policy that allows me to get help on any issues or concerns that may be brought to her attention. Yes, honesty and straightforwardness is very important to me even if the news may not be good. Everyone can improve. She is great, a friend, a leader and someone you come talk to just because. The only reason I came was because of her and that's true to this day. Yes, our principal is very supportive! Always willing to listen to new ideas, helps out in all areas (duties, classrooms, playgrounds, etc) and is fair. Awesome gal!!! Appreciate her continued support and assistance in our overall professional duties. Appreciate her constant reminders about professionalism, positive attitudes and being consistent with our students. Greatly appreciate her ability to draw strength from her team and always keeping the bar high! YES!!!!! Best principal around! I feel so supported and encouraged on a daily basis! Thank you real boss! :) You rock! Yes, she supports us with problems with parents and when we are struggling in areas. She is will giving to give us both positive and negative feedback. Definitely Yes! Gives positive feedback and clearly defines expectations. Encourages me to grow as a professional. Definitely. She has been supportive with every aspect of our campus and I appreciate that she takes the time to listen to and truly consider ideas from the staff. Yes, I feel like I can go to you with any issues being had or even ideas for the classroom. Yes, every time I had an issue my principal was there to guide me. She is super woman!! I think I want to vote for her to be President!!! The principal is supportive and professional. She is straight forward, honest, and helpful. Yes, she needs a cape...SuperTerri

Please be professional and constructive, If I could change something at Alpine Vista it would be.....OR just comment in general. 

I would say the disrespect can be frustrating, even if it's just a few students it can throw a whole group into a tailspin and that is very difficult to deal with. Also respect for property, I feel that students can be destructive, especially if a sub is here. I think that some lessons in empathy/consideration/constructive communication could help.



I would say making sure students and staff at the beginning of the year are clear on rules and expectations. Example: What is considered candy? (Jolly Ranchers and/or Gummy Bears)How do we freeze? (bodies frozen, but mouth still moving) It is very petty, but has been an issue this year with both staff and students being on the same page.



I know we are a large staff but i wish more of the upper teachers could get to know and connect with the lower grade teachers. We have an awesome staff:)

 

If I could suggest anything I think it would be to continue to hold students to a high level of behavioral expectations. I would like to see our assemblies be more fun and engaging! Have music playing as students walk in (like we do on Friday mornings) to be seated. Have "Elvis" at the assemblies more often and available for photo ops with the award recipients. Maybe a competition game with students and teachers for entertainment and to liven up the assemblies. I love that we have music playing on Friday mornings! It's a great way to end the week! More staff meetings as a "whole" staff. I still don't know everyone's names that well! I would appreciate more consistency in discipline but I think that overall everything is moving in the right direction. The duty schedule, in my opinion, should rotate so that you do not have the same duty all year long. Everyone should be able to experience all the duties, morning, break, and after school.

 



At this time I have not seen anything I would change. The staff is awesome, the administration does a great job, but most of all we all work together as a team. Everyone seems to be flexible and willing to help out.



I really would not change a thing. I feel like 99% of the staff really is here for the right reasons...to love and encourage kids! 1 more % and it would be perfect! Thanks Alpine! :)



It is frustrating that there are parent volunteers working in there or our students coming in there because they are helping out teachers/student council. Lately more and more people have been coming through. Another area we need improvement is the leadership committee communicating with the grade levels. Lunch is usually when we pass along messages like "heads up ____ is having a bad day, you might not want to call on them." It is also our time to talk about our time away from the school. Another area of improvement would be the principal and vice principal setting the standard at the beginning of the year of what the 7/8 grade are expected to do with tardies/discipline/grades because although it is nice that we get to decide as a staff it would be more consistent to start the year with a set of expectations instead of having to go back and try to fix things half way through the year. It has been frustrating this year especially since not all teachers are still enforcing different parts of it. Can we get a sign out sheet for a chrome cart for 7/8? It is frustrating that we never know where it is. It is also frustrating that when we go to use it or look for it a K-6 grade teacher is using it, especially since they have time at the computer lab and we do not.



I would like more time to plan with my grade level. To me, this was much more helpful than the classes that we took on Wed.



Talking about others behind their backs -fueling gossip. Staff picking up after themselves in lounge and bathrooms (my pet peave).



Closer connections between colleagues.



I leave most staff meetings wondering if I, or my grade level, is on the "bad kids/staff member list" who are anonymously called out for "still not doing things the right way" when administration is reviewing our staff progress towards implementing the most recent initiative/school wide focus. Recess duty / PE supervision can be really frustrating at times because not every teacher stays focused on actively supervising the kids. Supervising an area at recess should mean walking around that area to see what's happening and not standing off on the sidewalk/in the shade/in the same spot the whole time.



Believe in whatever is determined to be the greater good for our students by our leaders (Superintendent, Principals and Vice Principals) we should follow it to the best of our ability. Our leaders provide the most quality road maps, so let's just go team!



If I could change something at Alpine Vista it would be the way we structure PE for 4th-6th. I think it would be beneficial for grade levels to teach PE separately. I believe this would minimize behavior issues and hold teachers more accountable for the students they are in charge of. I think it would also be helpful to create a pacing guide for the PE activities students will be engaged in for each trimester. This will help keep teachers on track, allow students to participate in a variety of games, allow for the PE rep to know who needs what equipment and when, and will help if subs don't know what to do for PE.



We don't have the family atmosphere here on campus most of the time the lounge is empty, nobody talks personally and gets to know each other other than their grade level



I LOVE working here and feel so blessed to work with awesome staff and students!



I still think our awards assemblies need to be beefed up to really make the kids feel special, engaged, and pumped up. Compared to other schools I have seen they are kind of sad, and I heard that comment a lot from the students. I also think we should encourage AR more school wide if teachers are going to have it as part of their grade. Some sort of positive reinforcement, or awards, or something. And that our Head Teacher would listen to us when we had concerns or suggestions about the duty schedule or other things.



I would adopt a math curriculum that follows the common core standards and stop using Eclipse. It is a large wasteland of documents...it takes too much time to find something useful (documents are not labeled correctly...it makes for too many copies if I want to use it.)



No matter how hard we work more, more, more is always expected and it is very stressful! In order to get everything prepared to teach and meet all site requirements, I have to spend hours of my own time. We need more time to get things done that are required of us!!!!



More positive climate among staff.



Alpine Vista is awesome and continues to get better. I appreciate the collaboration and willingness to try new strategies. I have no complaints.



I have really enjoyed my first year here at Alpine Vista. Everyone on campus has been friendly and helpful.



Recognizing academic achievement in a manner that makes it, at least, SEEM as valued as athletic participation!



No need to change...we continue to grow and better our practices. Comment: Feel that although it has been addressed, our instructional aides need to be more alert on duties. The conversing typically is observed on duties by them regularly. (not all, but some)



Teachers should hold everyone accountable including themselves. Teachers should not rely on their partners to carry the weight of more than one class.



Everyone be team players and cover for each other help each other out. Go above and beyond.

Alpine Vista School School Site Council Local Monitor & Review Report of Findings March 1, 2016 FINDINGS: All findings focused on the district priorities and focus with attention given to student engagement, depth of knowledge (questions and tasks), and checks for understanding (questions teachers asked and authentic ways to check). ENGAGEMENT 1. In most classrooms if students were involved in higher level or authentic tasks students were more engaged. 2. Students were engaged when they were working with each other in teams, exploration, or on an engaging task, this occurred in most classrooms. 3. When the teacher was engaged and excited in the learning, students were authentically engaged and everyone was present in the lesson (many classrooms). In some classrooms, students were compliantly engaged in mid to lower level tasks. 4. Most classrooms K-3 teachers are holding students accountable for speaking in complete sentences and in 4-8 teachers and students were holding each other to accountable talk and working in collaborative groups (most classrooms). 5. In most classrooms the teacher employed strategies that got students involved and authentically engaged in the lesson through collaboration, Kagan strategies, and higher level authentic tasks. 6. All classrooms students were actively engaged in the learning, but there were also numerous classrooms where students were authentically engaged in the learning. Meaning they owned the learning and interacted with the teacher, each other and technology. (High level of student owning the learning) DEPTH OF KNOWLEDGE 7. Most classrooms students were given hands on tasks (levels 3-4) that included the use of manipulatives or technology and students were allowed to collaborate. 8. Students were exposed to higher level tasks in most classes 4-8 which included things like making their own comic strip/cartoon/newscast or where they utilized technology to work collaboratively, or were required to identify, examine or evaluate their work. 9. Some classrooms there were a lot of students who were allowed to critique, question (at various levels), problem solve and students were engaged and held to a high standard during group’s task/project.

CHECK FOR UNDERSTANDING

10. Most classroom teacher had prepared questions to ask that required students to collaborate and think. 11. Most classroom questions were asked that required students to elaborate on another students answers or to justify their thinking. 12. Students were held accountable for specific vocabulary based on the lesson and were asked to answer the questions asked utilizing the vocabulary and accountable talk. 13. In a few classrooms thinking maps were utilized as a system to check for understanding (ex: compare and contrast, categorizing, etc.). RECOMMENDATIONS: All recommendations on the district priorities and focus with attention given to student engagement, depth of knowledge (questions and tasks), and checks for understanding (questions teachers asked and authentic ways to check).  All classrooms need to have a clearly stated common core, project-based, 21st century lessons in each grade level.  Evidence that most grade levels plan together, plan projects with grade level and commit to teaching at a specific time to show that everyone is working together, needs to be all classrooms.  All classrooms need to show evidence of pre-planned open-ended questions that teachers asked students and that require students to think and justify.  All tasks should push students to problem solve, collaborate and think. Grade levels need to focus on the assignments/tasks that are given when planning and incorporate questions that are higher level (pre-planned).  Students need to work on asking higher level questions when working collaboratively.  Teachers need to continue to work collaboratively in grade levels to get students involved and engaged in higher level tasks.
