COMPREHENSIVE DISTRICT IMPROVEMENT PLAN

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Mission Statement

We expect each and every student to be a proficient, productive and contributing member of

society.

Plan Summary

The main academic focus for 2010-2012 will be in the area of Response to Intervention,

Differentiation of Instruction, District Professional Learning Teams, curriculum alignment,

Characteristics of Highly Effective Teaching and Learning, and formative assessment.

Curriculum alignment will address the New Core Standards for Mathematics and English

Language Arts. Our focus will be on the development of the curriculum and formative and

summative assessments. We will improve in these areas through the following approaches:

1. Curriculum Realignment Continuum

2007-2008: School level curriculum realignments reflect revised Core Content 4.1.

2008-2009: School level curriculum maps revised.

2009-2010: District curriculum documents realigned to reflect College Readiness

Standards. School level curriculum maps revised.

2010-2011: District realignment of curriculum documents to include the new revised

content standards and assessment – formative and summative. Program reviews in

Arts/Humanities, Practical Living & Career Studies, and Writing will be

implemented.

2011-2012: Continued alignment of curriculum documents in math and English

Language Arts; District realignment of curriculum documents to include the new

Science Common Core Content. Curriculum alignment will also be completed to

address the findings of the Program Reviews conducted in 2010-2011.

2. The 2011 Kentucky Performance and NCLB Reports will continue to reflect an 10%

decrease in the gap between the scores of the entire student group and the scores of the

students when separated into the following subgroups:

Gender

Special Education

Free/Reduced Lunch eligible students

Gifted/Talented

Career/Technical Education

Comprehensive District Improvement Plan 2009-2010

3. Instructional Support

Individual Learning Plans (ILP) and school schedules will ensure that all students

have instruction from and access to the least restrictive environment and age-

appropriate grade level for the Kentucky Core Content for Assessment.

A “Response to Intervention” district plan will be implemented in which teachers will

provide extended instruction to include one-to-one and small group instruction to

assist students in developing concepts addressed in the Common Core Standards in

Math and English Language Arts, the revised Kentucky Core Content 4.1for other all

other content areas, Program of Studies, and College Readiness Standards.

District Professional Learning Teams will focus on the deployment of the New Core

Standards in Math and English Language Arts and conduct “in-house” pilots of the

Program Reviews in Writing, Arts/Humanities, and Practical Living/Career Studies

(2010-2011).

District Professional Learning Teams will focus on the Characteristics of Highly

Effective Teaching and Learning and utilizing formative assessment to guide

instruction in Math and English Language Arts.

Process Summary

1. How Planning and Needs Assessment Teams Were Organized and Timelines

Established:

During the 2010-2011 school year, each of the Trimble County Schools and district

personnel conducted needs assessments involving each stakeholder. The stakeholders

included the following: the superintendent, board member, program coordinators,

instructional supervisor, SBDM members, principals, parents, teachers, community

members, support personnel, and students as appropriate. These stakeholders were

involved in ensuring that appropriate tasks were undertaken and appropriate timelines

were set for training and completion of the comprehensive improvement process. Needs

Assessment Teams were organized at the school levels making sure they were comprised

of the required members, and ad hoc committees were established to carry out individual

tasks as needed. The District Improvement Planning committee established meeting

dates for reviewing progress of the plan and for its final adoption. The meeting dates and

agendas were as follows:

September – October 2010 – Individual schools completed data analysis and

submitted reports to their SBDM councils and Trimble County Board of

Education for approval.

October 2010 – Plan revised based on NCLB and KCCT data analysis

October 21, 2010 – District Planning Committee training including overview of

the planning process, member responsibilities, and timelines.

2. Planning & Needs Assessment Teams:

a. School and District Planning Committees were established.

b. School level data and assessment scores were analyzed utilizing the following:

KASC Assessment Study

Student, Parent, and Staff Surveys

Round Table Discussions of the teachers and students

Implementation and Impact Reports

c. A district authorized committee prioritized the schools’ action plans and developed

the district action plans.

The Needs Assessment process incorporates data from each school and district

program. Again, the focus is on student learning. After careful review of student

data (cognitive and non-cognitive), the following Priority Needs were identified:

There is a need to ensure continuous progress toward meeting proficiency as

defined by the No Child Left Behind Act, the College Readiness Standards

and other achievement indicators.

There is a need for the continuance of the district to function as an effective

learning community.

The Perkins Act of 2006 effective July 1, 2007, requires each school district to

meet specific program indicators, to make continuous progress toward

mastery in the Kentucky Occupations Skills Standards Assessments and to

create at least one high school Career and Technical Program of Study.

Implementation is expected to result in students achieving at maximum academic

potential while optimizing utilization of all available funding; enhancing and

improving the school climate; insuring an equitable playing field for all students;

and lead to fulfillment of our mission statement.

3. Goals

(a) The Trimble County District will meet the No Child Left Behind Standards by

making AYP (Annual Yearly Progress) in 2011.

(b) Trimble County Public Schools will be a school district that provides a safe

and caring environment to promote student learning.

(c) Trimble County Public Schools will prepare students to meet the College

Readiness requirements and/or Career Standards to be productive citizens.

4. Internal Review Process

Comprehensive District Improvement Plan 2009-2010

6

The District Improvement Plan is reviewed, discussed, and approved by the

Trimble County Board of Education annually.

A review of the previous DIP, analysis of state and national assessment data, and

review and analysis of student data are used for development of the Priority Needs.

Goals are developed and written based on the identified priority needs.

Individual school plans are evaluated by their School’s Planning Team/Committee.

The District Improvement Plan is evaluated by representatives from each School’s

Planning Committee.

The SBDM Councils and the District Planning Team approve the plans in a public

meeting.

The KDE Review Rubric is used to ensure that all areas have been addressed.

The District will distribute copies of the plan to the SBDM Councils and school

offices.

The plan will be available for public view and/or comment at the Central Office.

Public notification will be made through schools’ SBDM councils and Trimble

County Board Meeting.

5. External Review Process

The Trimble County Middle School Improvement Plan and Trimble County

District Improvement Plan are submitted to the Ohio Valley Educational

Consortium team for review.

The Trimble County Board of Education approves the District Improvement Plan

at a regular meeting.

5. How Comprehensive Planning will be Ensured in the Future:

The use of an Implementation and Impact Check Form on a periodic basis will ensure

effective implementation and program amendments or changes. This process will

ensure long range planning and ongoing involvement of all stakeholders.

Reports of the District Plan Implementation and progress will be provided to the

Board of Education monthly.

Quarterly school component reports will be made to the respective SBDM Councils

including a monthly budget review, and the District Planning Team Coordinator will

monitor and ensure implementation of the District Plan.

Priority Need

Goal (Addresses the Priority Need)

According to a comprehensive district needs assessment (using KCCT and other achievement data input from schools), there is a need to ensure continuous progress toward the standard of proficiency for all students in all subject areas on the Kentucky Core Content Test and continued progress on meeting the No Child Left Behind indicators and College Readiness Standards. In order to reach the goal of proficiency, continuous work with curriculum, instruction and assessment is needed on a long-term basis.

The Trimble County District will reach and maintain the proficiency standards set forth in the No Child Left Behind Act and continue reduction of achievement gaps by 10% between the sub-populations for the 2010-2012 biennium.

Causes and Contributing Factors

Objectives with Measures of Success

A. Per records of curriculum committee and staff meeting minutes, and staff interviews, teachers do not have the same expectations for all students.

B. Per curriculum documents, committee meeting minutes, and

staff interviews, the district has developed a curriculum document in an attempt to eliminate curriculum overlaps and gaps; however, math and reading instruction is generally based on a textbook or program, not on the combined curriculum document.

A–C. All teachers will implement an aligned curriculum that will meet the individual needs of all students and specific learning targets will be posted in every classroom on a daily basis as evidenced in walk-through data.

A 3-tiered approach to intervention will be in place and utilized at each school and provided to students as needed providing constant monitoring of student progress as evidenced in monthly school based RtI

District Improvement Plan 2011-2012

1. List the issues that prevented the district from achieving 100% Highly Qualified Teacher (HQT) Status for 2 consecutive

years (2009-10 & 2010-2011).

The district rarely receives certified applicants in the areas of math, science, FMD, and media specialist.

Small student enrollment numbers often cause scheduling issues for one or two class periods each day resulting in

emergency certifications for those class periods.

2. What strategies will the district employ to ensure these issues are addressed to meet the 100% HQT objective?

A district leadership team will attend college, university, and educational cooperative job and recruitment fairs or events.

A member of the district staff and/or principal will contact state colleges and universities for lists of recent graduates.

Principals will search Kentucky REAP for certified applicants as soon as a vacancy is known.

The PD Coordinator will assist any teacher who may be hired on an emergency certification in enrollment in an

Alternative Certification Program.

The principals and PD Coordinator will assist teachers who do not meet the highly qualified definition in participating in

professional development activities to enhance subject matter competency.

Title 1 funds will be allocated for reimbursement for PRAXIS, course work, etc. to assist teachers in becoming highly

qualified.
