Stakeholder Awareness and Involvement in SIG Implementation

Describe how stakeholders are involved in model implementation on an on-going basis and the methods used to inform the school community about SIG

initiatives (e.g. posting on website, parent meetings, community forums, etc.)

Stakeholders are involved in the transformation model implementation through various forms of participation. The Senator Frank Lautenberg

School facilitated a variety of stakeholder meetings to develop various components of the SIG renewal application including the SIP, extended

learning, social and emotional learning, SIG project development and budgeting. Depending on the nature of the meeting, different stakeholders

were called upon to attend to share their expertise and review data to determine SIG initiatives. Stakeholders included school administrators,

teacher leaders, teacher mentors, content area supervisors, Central Office staff, Full Service Community School staff and members of Family

Intervention Services.

1. Data Analysis and Needs Assessment

Various stakeholders met to review 2016-2017 data and identify the needs of the school for 2017-2018. Multiple data points were

analyzed including the SIP, student achievement, student attendance, staff attendance, OCR data, and suspension rates. As part of the SIP

process, school staff had to complete the QSR, root cause analysis, and data analysis in order to develop their goals. Feedback from staff

regarding various vendors was also discussed to determine the level of services needed for 2017-2018.

2. Plan Development

School administrators and other staff developed SIG initiatives for 2017-2018 after identifying needs based on the data analysis above.

With the budget in mind, specifics of each initiative were formulated to correlate with SIG Transformation Model requirements and to

support SIG Leading Indicators.

3. Application and Budget Review

School administrators and district staff met to finalize the components of the application and budget items.

4. Stakeholder Participation During Grant Implementation

Bi-weekly School Leadership Team Meetings

o Stakeholders from the SIG School, District, and RAC meet every other week to review SFLS’ progress on the four SIP goals.

Discussion will include SIG initiatives and progress.

Monthly Parent Meetings

Summary of Strategies’ Impact on Metrics

Describe the increased learning program and its impact on ELA and Math outcomes. Describe any anticipated modifications to the program

during Year 4.

The Senator Frank Lautenberg School’s (SFL) extended learning program enables the school to add instructional periods and provide time for

intervention and enrichment. School six has continued to show gains in their K-5 population as evident by continued growth in reading levels.

The combination of guided reading supported by the Wilson Reading Program in grades K-3 have resulted in SFLS exceeding their yearly

improvement plan for those grades.

Students in need of intervention for literacy participated in the Achieve 3000 program, which yielded an average growth of +67 Lexile points

among 274 students in Grades 3 - 8. This is an increase of 14 Lexile points from the 2015-2016. Students in grades K – 3 participated in the

Wilson Reading Program, which yielded an average of 50% growth amongst various foundational reading skills. The two reading specialists at

SFLS work with flexible instructional groups based that provide varying amounts of time for students to learn based on their individual needs.

Classroom teachers also utilize two other intervention programs, Reading Eggs, and Reading A-Z. The reading specialists, along with the ELA

teachers will continue to utilize various intervention programs to meet the academic needs of SLFS’s students.

The Instructional Mentor continues to provide daily support to ELA teachers at SFLS. Support is provided in various ways such as formal

professional development on PD days, informal professional development during grade level and vertical articulation meetings, and job-embedded

coaching and modeling of best practices and instructional strategies. Additional support was provided for new ELA teachers that were hired in

grades 4-7.

Professional development topics included:

Lesson planning

Unit Planning/Backwards mapping

Unpacking the Common Core Standards

Analyzing Data from Unit Benchmarks/STARS

Analyzing trends using Performance Matters/STARS Reports

Teaching Channel is another platform where teachers are provided with a variety of vignettes to support professional learning through the use of a

Learning Plan. Within the Learning Plan, teachers are able to view professional learning videos, post comments, and respond to questions as this

Students who attend SFLS are given opportunities in mathematics with the conceptual model that integrate face-to-face learning and online

learning information, media and technology skills, as well as learning and innovation skills (critical thinking, communication, collaboration and

creativity skills). To adequately assess these skills, Paterson Public Schools has adopted a Mathematics Practice Standards Tool that includes

indicators for both teachers and students. The Standards for Mathematical Practice describe varieties of expertise that mathematic educators at all

levels should seek to develop in their students. These practices rest on important “processes and proficiencies” with longstanding importance in

mathematics education. adaptive reasoning, strategic competence, conceptual understanding (comprehension of mathematical concepts, operations

and relations), procedural fluency (skill in carrying out procedures flexibly, accurately, efficiently and appropriately), and productive disposition

(habitual inclination to see mathematics as sensible, useful, and worthwhile, coupled with a belief in diligence and one’s own efficacy). Teachers

and students are then assessed several times a year. Below you can find the targeted growth and actual growth chart for the 2016-2017 school

year.

The 2016-2017 school year will be a challenging year at SLFS for Mathematics instruction. Due to the Reduction in Force, SFLS has lost their

math site-based supervisor. Although a different supervisor will be assigned to SFLS, it is a disruption in support to the remaining teachers. In

addition, SFLS has lost one math teacher position due to RIFs in the middle grades, forcing the school to reallocate the teaching assignment to

existing staff members. However, both middle school math teachers will not be at SFLS next year with one resigning and the other has requested

a transfer. Due to the combination of the skeletal middle grade positions, training new middle grade students, the loss of the consistent support by

the site-based math supervisor and the low PARCC proficiency, SFLS is proposing to add a second Instructional Mentor to provide daily and

targeted support in math instruction. This instructional mentor will be solely dedicated to providing instructional support to math teachers by

providing job-embedded coaching and modeling, working with new teachers on Paterson’s curriculum and pacing, reinforcing strategies with

remaining teachers and collaborating with the new math site-based supervisor to provide daily support for math teachers.

Describe student attendance strategies and their impact on maintaining or increasing student attendance to at least 96% and decreasing

chronic absenteeism. Describe any anticipated modifications to these strategies during Year 4.

At The Senator Frank Lautenberg School, there is an intense focus on increasing attendance and several initiatives have been implemented. SFLS

continues to hold an Attendance Review Committee (ARC) which was created to address various attendance concerns and identify chronically

absent students. The Teacher Mentor of Climate and Culture has also been instrumental with initiating and maintaining various programs

designed to reward attendance. Several incentive programs have been implemented to provide nominal rewards. Students may earn Steamin’

Stallion Tickets that awarded them the opportunity to select from various STEAM related items such as robot building kits, solar-powered racing

cars and other fun STEAM activities. SFLS also uses healthy competition to try to increase school attendance. A bulletin board at the school

showcases the Steamin' Stallions attendance race to inform everyone on how they are doing. Another competition involved March Madness

brackets to find the top class for attendance in March. This strategy continued for April and May.

SFLS continues to hover around the 90% mark for student attendance with 2016-2017 at 89%. The goal for 2017-2018 is to reach 96% and will

implement the following strategies to reach the goal:

Establish schedule to meet with the attendance review committee – bi-weekly

Create partnerships with local agencies to make immediate referrals for students who reach 6 or more absences

School and local agency will meet regularly to monitor progress of referred students and families

Refine the student recognition program

Continue to provide regular incentives for students who meet attendance expectations

Provide targeted information to Kindergarten students and families to stress the importance of maintaining consistent and daily attendance

and arriving to school on time.

Describe student discipline strategies and their impact on decreasing OCRs and suspensions. Describe any anticipated modifications to these

strategies during Year 4.

Student discipline and social emotional learning continue to be a challenge at SFLS. OCRs were reduced by 76 from 2014-15 to 2015-16 but

increased slightly this year by 5. Suspensions vary throughout the years. For instance, 100 students were suspended in 2013-14. Then in 2014-

15, 188 students were suspended. In 2015-16, 212 students were suspended. However, in 2016-17 only 152 students were suspended. Although

there was a decrease in the number of students suspended throughout 2016-17, the number of suspensions continues to increase with many

students suspended multiple times resulting in 492 days of missed instruction. There has also been an increase of violent crime and activity in the

neighborhood of SFLS, resulting in multiple lock-downs throughout the school year. One of the tragic outcomes of the increased violence is the

effect it has on the SFLS students. When a shooting occurs, it is as in most cases a student’s father, brother, sister, cousin, or neighbor. This has a

dramatic effect on the learning environment at SFLS. The reverberations of the tragedy are felt throughout the building and at times have even

affected staff members.

To combat the effect of violence and other home situations that interrupt learning, Principal Dobbs and her team have been strategic in developing

a plan for 2016-2017. Major components of the plan include 1) hiring a Teacher Coordinator of Social Emotional Learning, 2) partnering with

SFLS’s Full Service Community School to provide additional counseling for students, and 3) reaching out to community organizations for

additional support for students and families.

Teacher Coordinator of Social Emotional Learning (SEL)

SFLS is requesting to utilize SIG funds to hire a Teacher Coordinator of Social Emotional Learning. The role of this staff member will be to

coordinate all of the existing and new initiatives to address the students’ social and emotional learning. While recognizing that this would be a

temporary position over the next two years, SFLS is committed to working with students and families to provide the environment and supports

needed for learning to take place. SFLS initially sought a professional partner that could be at the school to provide the below services for both

students and teachers, however the cost was out of budget. Rather than continue to pay a consultant to provide services at a limited number of

days per year, it is much more cost effective to hire an in-house staff member who is part of the fabric of the school community who will be able

to provide 180+ days of support for in social emotional learning to both students and teachers. The role and responsibilities of the Teacher

Coordinator of SEL are:

Coordinate social and emotional learning services at SFLS

Provide daily professional development in the form of job-embedded coaching and support to instructional staff for classroom

management, utilizing strategies such as “brain breaks” and affirmations, and implementing de-escalation strategies for teachers and

students

Implement a character education program. SFLS has allocated time each morning for the character education program and will continue to

reinforce character traits and activities for students. The teacher coordinator will oversee this in Year 4 and begin to transfer the

implementation of the program over to the instructional staff after training in Year 5.

SFLS will implement the Peace First Program, which is focused on teaching the essential concepts of peacemaking, modeling and

practicing critical skills, and building the relationships that are central to becoming an effective peacemaker.

o student activities in mindfulness, reflection, community service and civic engagement

o professional development for teachers

o and a parent workshop on how parents can assist their children in de-escalating and addressing conflict

Collaborate with the guidance counselor to provide behavioral interventions for students

Conduct a peer mediation program with the goal of transferring the ownership of the program to the students for sustainability

Partnering with SFLS’s Full Service Community School to Provide Additional Counseling for Students

The School-based Health Clinic (SBHC) as part of the Full Service Community School is currently seeking to gain partnership of

Paterson’s Federally Qualified Health Clinic (FQHC) network. With the FQHC partnership, the SBHC will be able to bill out for

behavioral health and counseling services. This will allow the SBHC to hire additional counselors to provide more services at no cost to

the FSCS or PPS budget.

The SBHC is also in process of obtaining additional Master’s level social work interns to lead student groups on grief, trauma and loss.

Reaching out to Community Organizations for Additional Support for Students and Families

In March, our FSCS partner New Destiny called a meeting with The Family Success Institute and Family Intervention Services. These two

institutions have a long record of assisting families in New Jersey and providing substantial resources. The Family Success Institute was

co-founded by Cary Booker, Senator Booker’s brother, who attended our meeting to work with Principal Dobbs and her team to identify

the needs of SFLS and match them with available services. SFLS has had several subsequent meetings to solidify and map out the

coordination of services. Family Intervention Services will provide a mobile response team member to be located at the school to

intervene in the event of a crisis to assist the family when there is a loss of a parent or family member, housing instability, family member

incarceration, meeting basic needs, addressing chronic absenteeism, etc.

Family Intervention Services will provide family counseling, which can be done at the student’s home, school, church, or any location that

the family feels secure. Often, it is the school where the family feels the safest and is the location that they will select for the counseling.

SFLS is requesting the use of SIG funds to outfit a room with the basic necessities to provide a comfortable and welcoming environment

for families to address their needs. Basic necessities would include comfortable seating, a table, and rug.

In summary, the Teacher Coordinator of SEL will work with teachers and implement several students programs, the SBHC will expand their

availability to offer additional 1:1 counseling and group sessions, and Family Intervention Services will provide crisis intervention and family

counseling and services. This trifecta of social and emotional learning services for students and families will be dedicated on the goal of

stabilizing the current environment at SFLS to provide the students a pathway to focus on increased achievement.

Describe teacher attendance strategies and their impact on maintaining or increasing teacher attendance to at least 96%. Describe any

anticipated modifications to these strategies during Year 4.

Teacher attendance continues to increase and reached 95% this year. With an attainable goal of 96% for 2017-2018, SFLS will continue to utilize

various incentives for teacher attendance including recognition programs and other no-cost incentives. SFLS is also building an enrichment

period into their schedule to not only provide students with academic enrichment experiences, but for teachers to select a skill, topic or activity of

interest that they would like to teach the students.

Describe the support provided to teachers with corrective action plans (CAPs). Indicate the extent to which this support has improved

instruction. Describe any anticipated modifications to these strategies during Year 4.

Teachers on a CAP at The Senator Frank Lautenberg School receive support targeted to their specific challenges. The number of teachers on a

CAP for 2017-2018 will be 4 – 8 teachers. SFLS is waiting for the PARCC data to come back to determine the final results for several teachers.

Supervisors of Literacy, Math, Bilingual and Special Education Instruction will continue to provide coaching and job-embedded support for

teachers. The Instructional Mentor has provided and will continue to provide mentorship on a peer to peer level by modeling effective lessons and

instructional strategies. Teachers on a CAP will receive support in the area of classroom management from the Teacher Coordinator for Social

Emotional Learning. School administrators also provide continued support and coaching through learning walks and classroom observations.
