That mission is grounded on the conviction that a general diffusion of knowledge is essential for the welfare of this state and for the preservation of the liberties and rights of citizens.

COMPREHENSIVE NEEDS ASSESSMENT SUMMARY

SCHOOL YEAR: 2015- 2016

Data Sources Reviewed:

Campus Data Packet

STAAR/EOC Reports/TEA Accountability Reports

Student/Parent/Faculty Surveys

SAT/ACT Reports

Campus Survey – DISD Needs Assessment Survey

Area Reviewed Summary of Strengths What were the identified strengths?

Summary of Needs What were the identified needs?

Priorities What are the priorities for the campus, including how federal and state program funds will be used?

Demographics

Our “School achievement gap change” increased by 7.7 percentage points

Our campus has a high LEP population (27%) and a large SPED population (10%). 80 % of students are considered at-risk. This indicates the need to progress monitor students growth and to offer additional learning opportunities during and after school hours.

To provide targeted professional development to teachers emphasizing LEP/SPED strategies. To provide targeted interventions to students during the advisory period, during the school day, as well as target interventions after school and on Saturday.

Student Achievement

All EOC scores improved from the 2013-2014 to the 2014-2015 school years. Our advanced performance increased in all areas. The campus earned academic distinctions for ELA and Science

Advance Performance on EOC exams: Alg. (2.9), Biology (11.6), English I (3.3), English II (1.6), and US History (18.4). There is a strong need to improve the advanced performance for all student groups on all EOC tests. English I & II as well as Algebra are below district and state averages. Our SAT () and ACT (14) scores are below district and state averages.

This indicates the need to focus on English and Algebra with respect to curriculum alignment, progress monitoring, additional student interventions and DDI practices. Also, there is a need for upper level courses to offer test preparation opportunities for AP/SAT/ACT exams, as well as extended learning opportunities for AP/SAT/ACT preparation.

School Culture and Climate

There has been growth in all areas on the climate and culture survey. 80 percent of parents report a positive

Based on the climate survey data half (50%) of the staff feel there is a need for improved instructional feedback

Administrators, Instructional Coaches and CILT will evaluate current systems and train on providing quality and effective instructional

culture. and support and a (70%) need to improve campus morale.

feedback to all teachers. Additionally, we will create a plan for greater input from faculty and staff on improving campus climate a culture.

Staff Quality/ Professional Development

We have recruited and retained top tier teachers in the past two years, adding value to the instructional program.

We need to identify and retain the top tier teachers on campus to reduce the turnover rate (62.1 % Retention Rate for 2014-2015). We need to increase the percentage of teachers who remain on campus for more than three years.

Provide quality professional development for new teachers. Create opportunities for teachers to contribute to the instructional program. Build capacity in teachers by offering additional opportunities to grow their leadership skills

Curriculum, Instruction, Assessment

We have implemented a strong researched based curriculum, instruction and assessment system (backward design model). With strong systems for monitoring progress (DDI/Data Meetings)

Spot Observation scores are below the proficient level. Spot Observation Data: Avg. 2.1 = 1.52, Avg. 2.2 = 1.42, Avg. 2.3 = 1.55, Avg. 2.5 = 1.5, Avg. 3.1 = 1.59. This indicates the need to improve the quality of instruction on our campus.

We need to provide quality professional development (38.8 % positive), and increase the "Culture of Feedback and Support" for all teachers on campus (53.5 % positive). New teachers will require additional training and experienced teachers will require differentiated training based on needs. All teachers will need additional training on the TEI evaluation system.

Family and Community Involvement

There has been a strong increase in parent involvement in the past two years. An increase in Parent Portal numbers from 10 % (2012) - 55% (2015). Greater participation on SBDM and PTSA.

While Parent Portal numbers have increased from 10 % to 54%, there continues to be a need to engage more parents with respect to their students’ achievement and growth. The goal is 70% of parents on parent portal.

Increase Parent Portal numbers to above 70 % Offer parent training classes (English, college, high school requirements) Offer more opportunities to engage parents, such as an Open House, Cougars Running Wild 5k, College Fairs, FASFA fairs, etc.

School Context and Organization

Ratings on the systems review indicate that our campus is proficient and progressing in the right direction with philosophy, processes, implementation, and leadership capacity. Moving to a Leadership Model encourages personal and professional growth of all faculty and staff

Research indicates smaller class sizes help to increase student achievement. There is a need to ensure class sizes are appropriate for the course of study. Also, ensuring the appropriate use of the modified block schedule, as well as the use of the Advisory period to execute leadership lessons and prepare for portfolio defenses. .

Analyze the master schedule to ensure proper balance of courses and to increase pre-AP and AP participation. Provide targeted professional development for teaching on the block and for effective execution of Advisory lessons. Provide PD for performance assessments and portfolio defenses.

Technology

Over the past two years we have increased the availability and use of technology on campus. One new
