Annual Student Outcome Goal Plan #1

School School
Counselor Year

Identify and describe outcome data (achievement, attendance or discipline) that serves as basis
for goal:
The University of Chicago To&Through Data shows the freshman year GPA is the most
important and sets a positive trajectory for students. Students are 4x more likely to graduate if
they are getting B’s or better.
25 students have 84% attendance or better, but still a low GPA. This leads us to believe they are
missing certain skill sets that might help them be successful in school.
Average transition in Chicago Public Schools from 8th grade to 9th grade shows a drop in
grades so we want to help address this before the first quarter ends.

Create a goal statement that focuses on a specific subset of students for whom intentional
strategies/interventions will be delivered and assessed.
