SIT Agenda - 4/25/2012

Conference Room
7:30 AM

We will continue our discussion from the last SIT meeting where our meeting was to begin (or continue) to brainstorm activities that will best address our goals for 2012-13 . . . with a thought on "parent and community involvement." 

We brainstormed some ideas at the last meeting:  CLICK HERE

And, for your reference, the draft SIP goals are:
In an effort to keep focus on where we're going, I'm sharing and in some cases resharing our direction for the School Improvement Plan goals.  Please read this over, ask questions, give feedback, and/or let me/us know what you think.


Reading*:  By the end of the 2012-13 academic year, the percentage of Mitchell students reading at instructional target reading levels will increase from 69% to 79% based on year-end reported reading levels.  (data would still be updated based on end of year reading level data)


Writing*: The percentage of Mitchell student scoring proficient or advanced on the MEAP writing test will increase from 35% to 40% based on the fall 2012 MEAP writing test.  
INSTEAD OF previous language in order to de-emphasize "end of year" language:
By the end of the 2012-13 academic year, the percentage of Mitchell students proficiently or advanced on the MEAP test will increase from 35% to 40% based on the MEAP test.


Self-control*:  All Mitchell students will show self-control based on the report card rubrics for self-control at each grade level.
This is placeholder goal for now.  It is the result of some discussion of a goal connected to RC.  It is my hope to continue the development of this discussion and goal with BMT and the SIT . . . of course with input from staff.


Math:  By the end of the 2012-13 academic year, the percentage of students secure on math outcomes related to algebra will increase from 52% to 60%.


Science:  The percentage of Mitchell student scoring proficient or advanced on the MEAP science test will increase from 35% to 40% based on the fall 2012 MEAP writing test. 
INSTEAD OF previous language in order to de-emphasize "end of year" language:
By the end of the 2012-13 academic year, the percentage of Mitchell students proficient or advanced on the MEAP science test will increase from 12% to 22% based on the MEAP test.


Social Studies:  The percentage of Mitchell students proficiently or advanced on the MEAP test will increase from 17% to 27% based on the fall 2012 MEAP test.
