Artifact:

ELA School Improvement Goals

Description:

I spent the day working with Marsha Miller,

Brian McKinley, and Steve Thompson to review the previous SIP,
examine data, determined where areas of weakness existed, and
highlighted areas of concern for the School Improvement Team.

Reflection:

Because I had previous written the School

Improvement Plan at Braddock Middle School for three
consecutive years, I was knowledgeable of what we were
expected to do. However, I was surprised at how much faster we
were able to examine the data by utilizing technology. I was not
surprised to see that typically the same subgroups were not
making proficient progress in the areas of reading and math. For
example, the special education population in grades 10 and 11
still remained in the basic level. In addition, the FARMs subgroups
in grades 10 and 11 did not make progress in reading and math.
Goals were established for these subgroups in these respective
areas.
