Financial Proposal and Report

This report is automatically generated from the School Plan entered in the spring of 2020 and from the District Business Administrator's data entry of the School LAND Trust expenditures in 2021-2022.

Goal #1

Goal

Our goal is a 40% increase from the beginning of the year to the end of the year on Student Growth Assessments (SGAs) in math.

Academic Areas

• Mathematics

Measurements

This is the measurement identified in the plan to determine if the goal was reached.

Students in 1st-6th grade will be given a grade level common assessment the beginning, middle and end of the year to measure math progress on essential content throughout the year.

Please show the before and after measurements and how academic performance was improved.

Lomond View had a 5% increase in students proficient from the Beginning of the Year to the End of the Year.  See the information below regarding K-3 DIBELS data of percentage of students on benchmark.

Action Plan Steps

These are the Action Plan Steps identified in the plan to reach the goal.

-Students in grades K-3 who do not reach benchmark levels as determined by the DIBELs assessment will receive additional help in small group settings. Aide time will be purchased to work with students who need additional help in reading and/or to work with providing extensions so teachers can spend extra time with struggling readers.  Early Reading Interventions, Words Their Way, Read Naturally, and other programs will be used to assist learning based upon individual needs. This is estimated to cost $11,000.

-An Aide will be hired to teach the class so teachers can meet for weekly PLC grade level team time.   This time will allow teachers the ability to discuss student reading progress, discuss individual student needs, organize grade level RTI groups and analyze and share effective instructional strategies.  This is an estimated cost of $4,000.

-An AmeriCorps reading aide will be hired to oversee our reading tutors.  Estimated cost of $4,000.

-Pay for teachers to attend the Professional Learning Communities at Work conference.  (Estimated cost for 4 teachers at $669 for a total of $2,676.

-Pay for substitutes for teachers who attend the PLC Conference. (Estimated cost of $1,000)

-Replace four classroom projectors that are outdated.  They are used to provide reading instruction to students.  They cost $859 each for a total of $3,436.

Please explain how the action plan was implemented to reach this goal.

-$8,814 was spent on aide time to provide additional support in reading with students who tested below benchmark.

-$2,624 was spent on aide time to teach each grade weekly so teachers could meet in PLC meetings to discuss student growth and best instructional practices.

Goal #3

Goal

Students will increase their typing ability by 5 words per minute.

Academic Areas

• Technology

Measurements

This is the measurement identified in the plan to determine if the goal was reached.

A typing speed test will be used to assess the amount of improvement in typing grades 2-6.   A baseline test will be given in September and then again in May to determine improvement.

 Please show the before and after measurements and how academic performance was improved. 

Typing speed and accuracy 2018-2019

Increased by 6.9 WPM and 1% accuracy

*Typing was introduced and used in 2nd grade, but data was not collected.

Action Plan Steps

These are the Action Plan Steps identified in the plan to reach the goal.

1. Students in every grade will receive age appropriate instruction designed to help them understand technology, its uses in learning, and distribution of information. To make this happen, a technology aide will be utilized to plan and teach lessons under the direction of the classroom teacher that will expose students to the educational usage of Power Point, spreadsheets, Internet navigation, and word processing as well as other educational programs that emphasize what students are learning in their CORE classes. Typing will be taught in grades 2 through 6, which will assist students in taking the SAGE test, especially the writing component where students are expected to type multiple paragraphs. This goal will also help with our professional development allowing teachers to work in learning communities and lesson studies while their kids are working on technology lessons with a trained para-professional. ($8,000)

2. Teachers will receive training on Tech Wednesdays from a 6th grade teacher at our school, who knows how to use the technology from a teacher's perspective.  He will help teachers to effectively implement technology in the classroom, the latest software, educational options, and provide follow-up support. This teacher will be encouraged to attend the UCET conference and continue to keep up on current technology advances to then keep the rest of the faculty current on best practices with technology. ($1,500) 

3. An additional Chromebook lab and cart will be leased to provide more opportunities for students to use technology. ($3,760)

4. Pay for the 2nd year of our Chromebook Lab leased last year.  ($2,410)

5. Purchase a typing software program for students to improve their typing ability. ($1,200)

Please explain how the action plan was implemented to reach this goal.
