• • • •

Students are taught the rules and expectations for appropriate behavior. We need to ensure students feel safe sharing a problem they can't solve on their own, with a staff member. We need to increase the respect level among students in the classroom. We need to decrease students threatening or bullying other students.

C. Classroom Observations Based upon Administrative Observations, Instructional Rounds, AGLT Review, and SSC Local Monitor and Review the following are evident: • • • • • • • • • • • • •

Scholars are engaged in learning Positive interactions occur in the classroom creating a safe atmosphere for positive learning environments. Students actively participate in academic conversations. Students are expected to work collaboratively as a group and problem solve. Standards based clear objectives and essential questions are posted in classrooms. Academic vocabulary is present throughout each grade level within the context of teaching. Promethean technology and use of active slates are prevalent throughout the school. Flip charts and other media were used to enhance teachers' lessons. Higher level questioning was evident through Cornell Notes, strategies designed to help students narrow their focus while reading questions, and in teaching. Checking for understanding in classrooms. Differentiated instruction for students. Core curriculum adopted materials are used. Classrooms are inviting and strategically planned to optimize student achievement. Some teachers use AVID/WICOR strategies, critical thinking and higher order questioning techniques in all curricular areas.

For the 2016-17 school year, we will focus on checking for understanding to drive instruction and increase overall student achievement. D. Student Work and School Documents For the 2016-2017 school year, student work and assessments will be aligned to state standards. Benchmark assessments are based on a performance task model that is similar to the Smarter Balanced Assessment. Teachers will continue to encourage and challenge students to complete higher level learning assignments that focus on Depths of Knowledge Levels 3 and 4 performance, essential questions and meaningful tasks. Teachers will utilize engagement strategies, Units of Study, Learning Focused Conversations and Project Based Learning to support student work and knowledge acquisition. SBAC Percentage of Students who Met and Exceeded Standards in ELA: 5th: 21%, 6th: 28%, 7th: 25%, 8th: 29% SBAC Percentage of Students who Met and Exceeded Standards in Mathematics: 5th: 9%, 6th:14%, 7th: 18%, 8th: 16% E.

V. Description of Barriers and Related School Goals Barriers present at Mulcahy School include the following: Mulcahy Middle School has a varied and diverse population - many ethnic groups and cultures are present and represent varying attitudes toward education. Mulcahy has a large population of children who are English Language Learners who are at various stages of acquiring the English Language. Mulcahy also has a high percentage of students living in poverty. •

All teachers need to embrace improving their practice through Instructional Rounds, Staff Development, Grade Level and Cross Grade Level planning through learning focused conversations on the defined problem of practice and the collection of evidence to support it.



Teachers will need to continue to focus on classroom management and engagement strategies to support collaborative learning and create an environment where students can learn and thrive.



In order to meet the needs of our students, we could use an additional aide for walk-to-interventions in 5th and 6th grade.



When teachers are absent, substitutes do not always show. This causes teachers to have to cover during prep and/or split classes between teachers. When this occurs academic content is not always taught.

LEA GOAL: LEA Goal: All limited-English-proficient students will become proficient in English and reach high academic standards, at a minimum attaining proficiency or better in reading/language arts and mathematics. LCAP GOAL: LCAP Goal: All EL students will increase proficiency in English, reach high standards and increase student achievement in English Language Arts so that they can meet all of their educational goals in order to be prepared for the demands of the 21st century SCHOOL GOAL #3: School Goal: By June of 2017, all limited-English-proficient students will meet the Title III AMAO 1 and AMAO 2 targets as measured by the CELDT. Data Used to Form this Goal: See Appendix A - CELDT Data Findings from the Analysis of this Data: After reviewing the CELDT data, it is evident that Mulcahy EL students continue to make progress. Students are exiting the program at a higher rate than similar schools due to first time best instruction. The data states that we continue to move students forward in their language development, but we still have a large number of students at the "Intermediate" level. We also have a high percentage of EL students who have been determined as "Long Term English Language Learners." How the School will Evaluate the Progress of this Goal: Inside assessments Themed unit language assessments CCSS Writing assessments Ongoing teacher formative assessments to inform instruction • Annual CELDT Actions to be Taken to Reach This Goal Effective implementation of the ELA instructional program Use state adopted materials, and district approved supplementary materials and curriculum to provide universal access to all learners

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: Mulcahy scholars joined staff and parents to develop ideas about how they can succeed in school and develop the skills necessary to become a “learned person that obtains much knowledge in all academic areas.” Scholars thought of ideas to make connections between learning at home and school. Students set their own person goals.

Parents Pledge: Mulcahy Middle School parents joined staff to develop the following ideas about how families can support scholars’ success in school.

• • • •

Check your scholar’s planners to see nightly homework assignments Ask your scholar about their day and what they are doing in their classes. Encourage your scholar to read for 30 minutes per night. Review school communications and respond to notes sent home by the school or educators.

Staff Pledge: Educators will work with scholars and their families to support scholars’ 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:

• • • • •

Back to School Night to explain curriculum Open House to showcase curriculum School Site Council Visits of classrooms Communication to parents through emails, Parent-link, phone calls or notes. Parents are encouraged to volunteer in the classroom to assist with common core background/TB/fingerprints are cleared).

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.

Mulcahy Middle School Local Monitor and Review Findings March 8, 2016

1. According to Mulcahy staff members, parents, and educators on the review team, it was evident scholars were engaged in what they were learning. Many scholars were participating in handson activities which fostered creativity, conversation and participation. Scholars worked together to complete tasks and problem solve. When manipulatives were used, engagement was high. (i.e. Play-doh, Ipad, Promethean board, dry erase boards) 2. According to Mulcahy staff members, parents, and scholars on the review team, classroom management procedures made activities run smoothly. Scholars were working in groups which made participation and sharing out less threatening thus heightening their confidence level when speaking about what they were learning. Many classrooms used gestures and educators used signals to give directions or get the class’ attention. Procedures were clear and direct. Educators expected scholars to respond with a complete response. 3. According to Mulcahy staff members, parents, and scholars on the review team the educators promoted a high level of energy. Communication between scholar and educator and scholars with scholars was positive. Some positive interaction that were observed were praise and encouragement, respectful discussions between educator and scholars, scholars working together and enjoying the task, and positive feedback during small group collaboration 4. According to Mulcahy staff members, parents, and scholars on the review team, it was apparent that scholars were expected to work collaboratively in groups. In about 70% of the classrooms observed, scholars were seated in collaborative groups with 3-4 students. In all classrooms everyone had someone to collaborate with. Scholars helped one another using calm voices. The conversations were focused on the task.
