Presented to RAMSP April 28, 2010
GoalsAim #1:
High Student AchievementProvide an educational environment that challenges all
learners to raise their level of achievement Integrate technology throughout the district as a teaching
and learning toolPartner with parents and communities to foster student
learning Aim #2:
A Safe, Welcoming, Engaging Learning Environment Aim #3:
Effective and Efficient Operations
Baseline/Trend DataPlainview and Elgin-Millville School
Districts consolidated in the fall of 2006. We’ve taken 4 rounds of standardized
testing as P-E-M (results available from 2007, 2008, 2009).
We’re still establishing our baseline. We need more data to confirm trends and to make judgments about our next direction.

Lead Indicators At this time our scores remain consistent
(No steep growth, no large dips). Currently reinvigorating Curriculum Cycle
and implementing Staff Evaluation Cycle. These are key elements to creating and maintaining growth at every grade level.
New math series implemented 2009-2010(Waiting to see the effect, which will likely take more than one testing year).
Next StepsTake advantage of the Mobile Science Lab.
We had personnel trained at one point, but never followed up. This would certainly enhance our science efforts.
Continue our commitment to Virtual PLCs with other RAMSP schools. (Thanks to RAMSP Science Subcommittee for coordinating a convenient medium to learn from one another’s expertise.)
Lessons Learned/Best PracticesCurriculum sharing between schools is a must.
In the last 2 years, P-E-M has participated in math cohorts with grades 5-12. They’ve all been well received and seem to have enhanced our curriculum.
Teacher-to-Teacher ProgramGrade-level science cohorts (a RAMSP
initiative a few years ago) were very effective, and the vPLC is a great follow-up using available technology.
SummaryStill establishing a trend as a district.
Data from all assessments tend to put us “in the mix” district-wide, but more information will help us find key issues to address at and within grade levels.
Grade-level cohorts in science and math across districts really help teachers see an immediate impact in their classrooms.
