District Goals and Plan Overview

The purpose of the School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) is to provide a comprehensive document, including details of site planned actions and expenditures as they relate to the goals of Clovis Unified School District. The plan supports student outcomes and overall performance in connection with the District's Local Control and Accountability Plan and in alignment with the district goals supporting the expectations that all goals shall have objectives that are measurable, actionable, and develop monitoring metrics to assess progress that guides program evaluation and resource allocation.

Our district AIMS as well as our district’s CLASSI goals are woven throughout our plan to meet the high expectations our district holds for our school sites, staff, students, and community.

District AIMS:
AIM I: Maximize Achievement for ALL Students
AIM II: Operate with Increasing Efficiency and Effectiveness
AIM III: Hire, Develop, Sustain, and Value a High-Quality Diverse Workforce

Plan Description

Briefly describe your school’s plan for effectively meeting ESSA’s planning requirements in alignment with the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) and other federal, state, and local programs.

Within our SPSA we have created a plan that focuses on student outcomes and overall performance. It is our ultimate goal to implement this plan and continue to increase academic achievement for all students. Our plan includes goals around our academic achievement, chronic absenteeism, and suspension rates for the following subgroups: All students, SED, Students with Disabilities, Asian, and Hispanic.

Educational Partner Involvement

How, when, and with whom did Garfield Elementary School consult as part of the planning process for this SPSA/Annual Review and Update?

Involvement Process for the SPSA and Annual Review and Update

Our educational partners, including but not limited to our SSC, ELAC, and staff, play a huge role in the creation, monitoring, and revisions of our School Plan for Student Achievement. Throughout the year, we regularly revisit our SPSA at our SSC meetings by discussing the budget and goals, student achievement, available supports for students and families, and more. At our most recent SSC and ELAC meetings, our SPSA monitoring tool was reviewed with our committees to allow them to see where we were with last year’s goals, where we see continued gaps, and where we have identified wins in achievements. Our committees then discussed possible next steps and needed changes as well as made recommendations to site administration for our SPSA.

The following recommendations were made:
* Continue to support Tier 3 intervention to aid struggling students effectively.
* Implement proactive measures aimed at fostering positive behavior to prevent issues before they arise.

School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA)	Page 3 of 15	Garfield Elementary School

Comprehensive Needs Assessment Components

Identify and describe any areas that need significant improvement based on a review of Dashboard and local data, including any areas of low performance and significant performance gaps among student groups on Dashboard indicators, and any steps taken to address those areas.

California School Dashboard (Dashboard) Indicators

Referring to the California School Dashboard (Dashboard), any state indicator for which overall performance was in the “Red” or “Orange” performance category. *Overall Red Indicators include: Garfield does not have overall red indicators.

*Overall Orange Indicators include: Suspension Rate

Referring to the California School Dashboard (Dashboard), any state indicator for which performance for any student group was two or more performance levels below the “all student” performance.

The following subgroups have two or more indicators below the all student performance level in the following areas: * Students with Disabilities

Additionally, the following indicators are red on our dashboard for the following subgroups: * Suspension Rates: Socioeconomically Disadvantaged, Students with Disabilities
* English Language Arts: Students with Disabilities

Other Needs

In addition to Dashboard data, other needs may be identified using locally collected data developed by the LEA to measure pupil outcomes.

Local indicators and educational partner feedback also indicate that we have needs in the following areas: * 22-23 EOY DRA Kindergarten scores declined slightly.
* Focus on system to support behavior and socioemotional learning. * Professional Development to support goals.

Annual Review
Describe the overall implementation of these goals from the previous year. If this is a new goal an analysis is not required.
	
Individual grade levels and subgroups achieved or came close to meeting proficiency at high levels. Intervention teachers support school wide academic programs and initiatives.

Professional development on i-Ready curriculum provided all teachers an understanding of the diagnostic tool to systematically monitor students' progress in mathematics and use individual instructional pathway recommendations to support differentiated instruction.

Throughout the school year, professional development opportunities were made available to classified, certificated, and administrative staff.
	
Identified Need(s)

As a result of the analysis of data and your annual implementation review, describe any changes that will be made (next school year) in this goal, annual metrics, and actions to achieve this goal.
	
Based on our data analysis and needs assessment, we need to:
*Refine our instructional practices around reading and writing in grades K-6 for all students. *Increase academic supports in math for all students.
*Identify struggling students in ELA/Math and prioritize Tier 3 intervention support.

This SPSA Goal addresses the Clovis Unified School District Local Accountability Plan (LCAP): Eight State Priorities: Student Engagement Student Outcomes, Adopt Standards, Course of Study, Student Achievement.

Intervention
The targeted intervention has proven to increase proficiency. Using funds from both the 0601 and the 0600 accounts we have been able to hire three intervention teachers to work a total of 20 hours a week on intervention with our students that are struggling and are below grade level. Students will be monitored on a regular basis by classroom teachers, Intervention teachers, Instructional Assistants and site administration.
