Student Academic Achievement

Student Academic Achievement Summary

Individal student needs are identified in a variety of ways. For example, teachers and administrators collect data from M-Class assessments, Texas PrimaryReading Inventory (TPRI), iStataion, district benchmarks, additional summative assessment and a variety of formative assessmetns. Specific serviecs andinterventions are then determined, implemented, monitored, adjusted, and evaluated through the RtI and SST processes.

Fowler met all requirements in the four indexes assessed for the state accountability area, Student Achievement; Student Progress; Closing PerformanceGaps; and Postsecondary Readiness.

All 2019 EOY scores for KG-2 increased in the approaches and masters level.

Problem Statements Identifying Student Academic Achievement Needs

Problem Statement 1: Kindergarten achieved 63% "Developed" in deleting final sounds. Individual class scores ranged from 30%-86%. Root Cause: Aconsistent phonics program was not adoipted by the district and teachers were not given resources until mid-year. The program was not rolled out orimplemented with fidelity by all teachers.

Problem Statement 2: Second grade EOY math scores were very low with only 49% of the students scoring in the "Approaches" grade level. Root Cause:The EOY Math assessment was poorly designed and written. Problems were very wordy and some contained 3 and 4 steps to complete.

Problem Statement 3: IStation scores are not a true reflection of student ability. Root Cause: The IStation program is not implemented in its entirety bythe district. The district only pays for the assessment pieces and not the lessons or intervention pieces.

Problem Statement 4: Fowler did not meet state targets for closing the gap in Reading & Math on state wide assessments for our Caucasian population.Root Cause: While progress is being made, not meeting standard could be due to lack of implementing programs, poor interventions, and lack of datacollection in the early grades.

Problem Statement 5: There is a significant gap between the performance of general education students and special education students. Root Cause: Theincrease of special education students may indicate the need for additional special education staff. The training for general education teachers, as well asspecial education paras to meet the needs of special education students is inadequate.

School Processes & Programs

School Processes & Programs Summary

Fowler has several new teachers this year. Support systems, such as common grade level planning, PLC time, and a common learning framework will be inplace for these new staff members.

WFISD's goal is to increase student academic achievement through strategies such as improving teacher and principal quality and increasing the number ofhighly qualified teachers in the classroom and highly qualified principals and assistant principals in schools; and hold districts and schools accountable forimprovements in student academic achievement

All schools in Texas must meet standards set in four state accountability areas. For the 2018-2019 school year, Fowler Elementary met all four targets.

Domain 1 - Student Achievement. Fowler Elementary Score: 79Domain 2 School Progress: Fowler Elementary Score: 79Academic Growth: 79Relative Performance: 74Domain 3 Closing Performance Gaps: 76 Fowler Elementary Score: 78 C

The TEKS Resource System is in place to cover all TEKS and to create a schedule for implementation. Through the Marzano's training, the staff hasadopted a common learning framework. Fowler language arts teachers will utilize Balanced Literacy to improve student achievement in reading. Fowlermath teachers will implement Guided Math to improve student achievement in math. Seidlitz will be utilized at all grades/content areas to improve Tier 1instruction.

Teachers in Pk, K, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grades will have access to 11 devices. 4th and 5th grader studnets will continue to have 1:1 devices. Teachers notpreviously attending Google training will have an opportunity to be trained.

Two selected groups of teachers and leaders went through extensive Marzano's HRS (Highly Reliable Schools) Level 1 Training. The model and appropachwere brought back to inform decision making and positively impact the safety and collaborative nature in which things are done.

Safety and security of staff and studnets is our number one concern. All exterior doors, with the exception of one at the front office are kept locked. Montlysafety drills and logs are maintained. The profess and procedure in which these are done are modified when necessary. Staff wear name badges and allvisitors to campus have to sign in with front office staff nd are printed a name badge. Background cehcks must be obtained to volunteer in classrooms andattend field trips or class parties.

Fowler has many activities for students to participate in including clubs, UIL, choir, writing club, P.R.E.T.T.Y. club, and student council.

We have a positive behavior program and character education to increase approporate behavior and reduce the threat of bullying, as well as grade levelFowler ElementaryGenerated by Plan4Learning.com 8 of 34

School Processes & Programs Strengths

Fowler staff participated in the Marzano High Reliability School training this year which will build systems for learning on campus. Fowler will work toimplement learned strategies from the level 1 training to inform decision making. Several teachers have been through the ASOT training and a commoninstructional framework will be in place for teachers. Instructional coaches will help foster new teachers on campus and facilitate the ASOT training withstaff members.

The District provides curriculum-based assessments to help monitor teacher and student progress. The District also provides a benchmark assessment. Aftereach of these assessments, staff looks at student and curricular needs and makes adjustments.

Problem Statements Identifying School Processes & Programs Needs

Problem Statement 1: Student data is not being disaggregated appropriately during PLC. Root Cause: Parameters and guidelines for teachers on how todig into data need to be put into place.

Problem Statement 2: Teachers are losing planning and instructional time to meetings without coverage by highly qualified staff. Root Cause: The currentmaster schedule did not allow for built in meeting times other than a planning period. Coverage was usually done by paraprofessionals.

Problem Statement 3: There are no current procedures in place to put incoming Kindergarten students into classes. Root Cause: We do not have adequateinformation about incoming Kindergarten students.

Problem Statement 4: There are no procedures in place to prepare 5th graders for the transition to middle school. Root Cause: There is not consistentenforcement of transitions or building procedures.Fowler ElementaryGenerated by Plan4Learning.com 9 of 34

We can insight into perceptions through staff, students, and parent surveys conducted throughout the year.

Perceptions Strengths

We get positive feedback from parents. We often get compliments about the culture of our school and other schools and community (Midwestern StateUniversity) send people to visit and observe.

Problem Statements Identifying Perceptions Needs

Problem Statement 1: Safety at dismissal is perceived as unsafe. Root Cause: Sonora Dr. is not a one way street. Daycare vans in the front circel drivecause other cars not to be able to see children entering the crosswalk.

Problem Statement 2: There is no consistency in student behavior campus wide. Root Cause: Parents and staff do not always know how discipline issuesare handled when students are sent to the office.

Root Cause 4: While progress isbeing made, not meeting standard could be due to lack of implementing programs, poor interventions, and lack of data collection in the early grades.

Problem Statement 5: There is a significant gap between the performance of general education students and special education students. Root Cause 5: The increase of special educationstudents may indicate the need for additional special education staff.

Performance Objective 3 Problem Statements:

Student Academic AchievementProblem Statement 4: Fowler did not meet state targets for closing the gap in Reading & Math on state wide assessments for our Caucasian population. Root Cause 4: While progress isbeing made, not meeting standard could be due to lack of implementing programs, poor interventions, and lack of data collection in the early grades.

Problem Statement 5: There is a significant gap between the performance of general education students and special education students. Root Cause 5: The increase of special educationstudents may indicate the need for additional special education staff. The training for general education teachers, as well as special education paras to meet the needs of special educationstudents is inadequate.
