CAPA RECOMMENDATIONS

LAL/MATH/SPED/CULTURE/PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT/LEADERSHIPSCHOOL/DISTRICT1.District administrators along with building leadership should collect information on the various instructional strategies used to implement the curriculum. The data collected from these focused learning walks should include, yet not be limited to information on:•effective use of the co-teaching model•flexible grouping and use of differentiation of instructional strategies•exemplars connected with project-based learning•portfolios as a tool to track student progress over time and to ensure that rigor is evident•holistically scored writing across the curriculum•higher order thinking and problem solving skills and activities along with inquiry based instruction•infusion of technology to deliver instruction•use of Bloom’s Taxonomy

LAL2.Reduce reliance on teacher-directed instruction and intentionally plan instructional time to include defined tasks that engage students in substantive literacy activities. Create objectives and/or essential questions that provide greater specificity about expected goals and a greater degree of clarity about what students will be expected to do.


6


MATHEMATICS3.The district should develop comprehensive curricula for all courses that include prerequisite skills, strategies, resources, and the infusion of technology that reflects the NJCCCS.4.The school should ensure that special education and ELL teachers are included in respective general education, content planning time and other content level meetings and professional development opportunities.

SPECIAL EDUCATION:SCHOOL5.The school should re-examine its schedule of room assignments to ensure that special education students are provided with hands-on science laboratory experiences as part of the curriculum in the sciences. Without these experiences, the core curriculum content standards in science cannot be properly implemented.6.The school should assign all grades nine through twelve special education students to receive remedial reading through Read 180 and Wilson Program strategies as long as needed.


7


ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERSDISTRICT/SCHOOL7.The district should support the school to designate a single ESL teacher for double periods of ESL for continuity in the teaching of listening, speaking, reading and writing. Supplemental ESL should be a third period, if needed, with a focus on reading and/or writing; do not allow students to take ESL I and II and/or III in the same marking period. Incorporate differentiated instruction and group work in bilingual content area classes to those students who have limited or no formal schooling.8.Develop an in-school program with the focus on closing the achievement gap. A self-contained, Newcomers Program should be developed that would function for a minimum of six months where skills are emphasized to close the achievement gap. This can be supplemented by an ESL class that focuses on skills and concepts in English for the purpose of closing gaps in content instruction, including mathematics.

SCHOOL CULTURE/LEADERSHIPSCHOOL:9. The building leadership should recognize the existing belief system of the school community and begin to work towards leadership actions that will create a positive, cohesive culture that fosters high expectations around teaching and learning for all students. This begins with self-refection and moves toward building knowledge and capacity around the necessary instructional practices to support effective teaching and learning.


8


SCHOOL CULTURE/PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT/LEADERSHIPDISTRICT/SCHOOL:10.The building leadership should begin to address capacity building by:

• Instituting structures with defined protocols, consistent implementation, and specific accountability measures

• Broadening the school leadership’s understanding of the effects of school culture on achievement. It is necessary for the team to receive training and coaching in Systems Thinking and Leadership Change.

The district supports the efforts of the building leadership in changing the culture of the building by supplying the opportunities and resources to build the capacity of the leadership team.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT/LEADERSHIP and NCLB SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT COMMITTEE

DISTRICT/SCHOOL11. The school leaders, with the assistance of the district staff, should create and implement systemic

procedures that ensure comprehensive instructional leadership. These procedures should address, but not be limited to:

• Assurance of uniformity and consistency of unified practices, procedures, and administrative goals and visions that propel the staff, students and school administrators into high achievement and performance goals.

• Continued and consistent monitoring of staff, students and school administrators to ensure that each stakeholder is held to optimal performance and accountability standards.


9


The appropriate professional development should be provided for the administrative team to assist them in accomplishing these goals.

12. The building leadership should support, encourage and provide assistance, when needed, to the school to establish a fully functioning site-based School Leadership Committee that will provide a shared leadership role in addressing such school-related issues as, but not limited to:

•Improving school climate-attendance rates and lateness•Improving staff and student accountability towards aiming at higher achievement standards and ways to reach them•Increasing student and staff recognition programs•Taking professional and personal ownership of student achievement by all stakeholders•Data collection and analysis on teaching and learning impacts of research-based best instructional practices

The district should assist the school in implementing ideas of the school improvement team tied into the school and district mission and vision.
