VISION/MISSION/BELIEF STATEMENTS
Note: Required for Title I
Vision:
“It is our vision that we nurture and expose children to the love of learning, facilitate a desire to continue their education, and maintain a successful level of achievement at each grade level.”
Mission:
The mission of Medart Elementary is to provide a child-centered atmosphere where students are given the opportunity to excel. Our commitment is to provide experiences for personal growth and achievement for all members of the learning community through an enjoyment of learning. We encourage a lasting enthusiasm for learning while stressing moral standards, responsibility, and respect toward others.
We believe that all members of the Medart Elementary School community can learn. We take responsibility for our own learning and for fostering a learning environment that is continual, endless, and is ever changing to meet the developing needs of our society. We strive to instill confident autonomies and positive mental attitudes in our students that will insure life long learners.
Beliefs:
• Teachers, administrators, parents, and community members share in the responsibility of student learning and make this a chief priority.
• Students need to not only demonstrate their understanding of essential knowledge and skills, but also be actively involved in solving problems and producing quality work through developing the capacity to apply their learning and reasoning skills.
• Each student is a valued individual with unique physical, social, emotional, and intellectual needs. Meeting those needs is the primary focus of all decisions affecting the work, structure, and operation of the school providing students with a variety of opportunities and social mobility.
• A student’s self-esteem is enhanced by positive relationships and mutual respect among and between students and staff in a safe and physically comfortable environment that promotes student learning.
• Curriculum and instructional practices, based on the Sunshine State Standards, incorporate a variety of learning activities to accommodate differences in learning styles.
• Students with exceptionalities are provided with special services and resources to meet their individual needs.
Our Vision, Mission, and Belief Statements were revisited by the faculty and staff in the spring of the 2008 SY. Adjustments were made on the compilation of the data by one of our SAC Team members, Belinda McElroy. The following information shares the findings and the responses of Medart's stakeholders which shares our commitment to continually focus on student improvement.

Review of Vision/Mission/Beliefs
Medart Elementary has a common instructional framework, which guides curriculum, teaching, assessment, and learning climate. The vision statement and mission have assimilated into our culture, and this is proven by the manner in which they are demonstrated in the programs, practices, and working conditions at our school. Staff members worked in cross curricular multi grade level groups during a faculty meeting to reassess our mission statement, consider whether each statement shared our movement in the direction of achieving our school’s vision, and to determine if changes were needed. Each group was asked to write down any examples that they could think of to demonstrate how our school supports our beliefs through allocation of resources, instructional strategies, materials, actions, and programs.
The mission statement of Medart Elementary begins by stating our commitment to providing a child-centered atmosphere where students are given the opportunity to excel. Medart shows that it is child centered in many ways. We have several student driven organizations including a student council, a media club that does a daily-televised news program, a student generated newspaper, and an annual student directed talent show. One teacher noted that, “It would be much easier and time efficient if these activities were organized by teachers, but then the kids wouldn’t be learning how to do it.” We also provide many opportunities for artistically or athletically talented students to excel outside the regular classroom in the Art club, the Orff band, and the special area classes.
Our commitment is to provide experiences for personal growth and achievement for all members of the learning community through an enjoyment of learning. At Medart we are continually searching for ways to take the standards and make them relevant and fun. For example, someone found an on-line template for Jeopardy that allows us to adapt the game board to fit our categories and use our questions. Our AP created a folder on our server so that we can save and share teacher created game boards. Students and teachers feel like Jeopardy is an enjoyable way to take a quiz. During one of our annual parent workshops, we review the scientific method and give parents the basic information they need to assist their children with the students’ projects for the Annual Science Fair. It is all “hands-on” experimentation and the parents love it!
We encourage a lasting enthusiasm for learning while stressing moral standards, responsibility, and respect toward others. Compared to other schools of our size and demographic make-up, our school has a very low incidence of behavior problems, as measured by office referrals and suspensions. (SAC Report) Administrators, teachers, and staff members of our school communicate this aspect of our mission regularly to all stakeholders and serve as role models by embodying this belief. Everyone at Medart Elementary is given the same degree of respect by co-workers and students. Our philosophy has always been that everyone in our school has a role to play and all roles are important. One weak link, whether it be with a custodian, a teacher, or a lunchroom supervisor can affect the outcome of student learning, which is our ultimate goal. When there is a problem, we address it. Surveys administered by the School Advisory Council last year indicated a problem with behavior in the lunchroom. Students were getting too loud and getting out of their seats too often. Faculty representatives researched a Positive Behavior Support program and presented it to the faculty. We adapted the program to fit our needs and implemented it this year.
We believe that all members of the Medart Elementary School community can learn. This is evidenced in our implementation of ESE Inclusion classes and our practice of providing the least restrictive environment for all students. Students with severe disabilities are involved in the regular operation of the school. All students attend special area classes daily, participate in extracurricular activities, share the same playground, participate in fieldtrips, and attend assemblies with the entire student population. Although many of these activities are not academic, students are using these opportunities to learn social skills that will help them navigate in other contexts. We also feel that it is important for our general education students to learn to accept that people are all different, and that all students, regardless of differences, are of equal worth as human beings and as members of our school community. There are no ESE resource pull out programs in 2nd through 5th grades, except for Gifted and Speech Language. Our school has committed a great deal of resources to include students with specific learning disabilities into the mainstream classrooms. Inclusion teachers and paraprofessionals have attended several in-services, conferences, and workshops to learn methods for making inclusion work. The school has purchased addition materials such as individual whiteboards and classroom sets of math manipulatives for the Inclusion classes. Periodically, Inclusion teachers are given release time so that they can plan and share with other Inclusion teachers in our school.
We take responsibility for our own learning and for fostering a learning environment that is continual, endless, and ever changing to meet the developing needs of our society. Evidence that faculty and staff members at Medart take responsibility for their own continual learning is abundant. The administrators at our school ask faculty members to construct their own personal goals compatible with those of the school improvement plan, as they develop Individualized Professional Development Plans each year. An IPDP includes professional reflection, identification of resources for development, and documenting achievement. Twelve of or 45 member instructional staff have achieved Master’s or Specialist’s degrees, and four others are in the process of attaining advanced degrees. Three staff members are pursuing Bachelor’s Degrees in Elementary Education. Six of our faculty members are certified by the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards. This year, groups of teachers formed Book Study Groups, which meet weekly to reflect on and discuss professional literature selections. Faculty and staff members attend conferences, in-services, and workshops whenever they are made available.
Medart Elementary faculty members realize that pencils, paper, and textbooks are not enough to prepare students for the future. Technology is becoming more sophisticated and more all encompassing at an exponential rate. We are preparing our students for the future by integrating technology into all parts of the curriculum through the use of computer interactive whiteboards. Our commitment to preparing students for the future is also demonstrated in our efforts to persuade them to be good stewards of our delicate environmental resources. During our annual Project Learning Tree Week, students enjoy five days of nature hikes, interaction with live animals, and lessons taught by practicing biologists, naturalists, and environmentalists.
We assist students in becoming self-directed, lifelong learners, confident in their ability to learn independently. The faculty and staff of Medart Elementary believe that by helping too much, we can inadvertently, create students that are helpless. Scaffolding instruction so that students are given only the amount of accommodation and assistance that is necessary is an important component of our teaching strategies. We teach students how to learn by using resources such as libraries, the Internet, peer supports, and by giving them explicit instruction in problem solving strategies.
Conclusion:
The curriculum, strategies, materials, programs, beliefs and learning environment at Medart Elementary model excellence in instructional program coherence. The administration operates and manages the school with methods aligned to the mission statement. Medart Elementary is making great strides toward obtaining our vision, “to nurture and expose children to the love of learning, facilitate a desire to continue their education, and maintain a successful level of achievement at each grade level.”

SCHOOL PROFILE DEMOGRAPHICS
SCHOOL PROFILE DEMOGRAPHICS
In the 2007-2008 SY, the enrollment for Medart Elementary School was 676 students based on the February 08 FTE report. Medart Elementary faculty took a stand in the 2006-2007 SY, and through discussion, decided morale was a stronger issue than having five teachers recognized in the category of Outstanding. All teachers above a satisfactory in their personal evaluation will be High Performing teachers. A discussion forum was held this year with the faculty, and the faculty unanimously decided to continue this practice. Medart Elementary has always been proud of having a faculty that works together in a cohesive manner. We exhibit this through actions, consideration, and respect towards each other with the focus being on the welfare of the school and its students. We take pride in our team spirit.
Medart Elementary boasts several National Board Certified Teachers - Beth Brown, Margaret Callaghan, Belinda McElroy, Brooke Mohr, Diane Perez, and Virginia Tillman. Charlotte Hoover, fifth grade teacher, was selected by her co-workers as Medart’s Teacher of the Year. Medart Elementary recognized Dana Hicks as Teacher of the Month in January, and Lori McNally in July. The Wakulla County School Board gave these teachers special recognition during their monthly meetings. Medart’s faculty and staff attended many workshops during the 2007-2008 SY. All of our teachers and paraprofessionals are highly qualified with all teachers in field.
The faculty and staff continue to create student incentive programs to increase interest in reading and encourage good behavior. Within the school, we have a Terrific Kids program, which recognizes and rewards those students who excel in citizenship and work habits. Students are nominated by their teachers and receive recognition and rewards during a televised program via the school’s closed circuit TV system. Students read books checked out from the media center and earn points in the Accelerated Reader Program by correctly responding to questions on AR quizzes taken on our Internet hosted Renaissance Place. We also recognize students who achieve honor roll status, excellent citizenship, and perfect attendance each nine-week term by presenting ribbons with their report cards. At the end of the school year, we have a special assembly for these students where their parents are invited. Trophies, pins, and certificates are awarded for citizenship, academics, the arts, and physical fitness.
This year there were several academic programs offered to Medart Elementary students. These included Title I, which encompasses the entire school population, and Camp TEAM, which is an after school remediation and enrichment program for third, fourth, and fifth grades. These programs were funded with SAI, Title I, and School Recognition funds.
Student assessment is an on-going process in every school district. In Wakulla County this was accomplished through the administration of SAT 10 in Kindergarten through second grades in the 2007-2008 SY. Third, fourth, and fifth graders took FCAT SSS and NRT in Math and Reading. In addition, fourth graders took FCAT Writing and fifth graders took FCAT Science. Test scores by Wakulla County Schools show that our students excel. Medart continues to do its part in helping our district to achieve high rankings. For the 2007-2008 SY, Medart Elementary made its seventh A in a row with our highest score ever – 594. We were awarded Provisional Adequate Yearly Progress.
This year Medart Elementary School worked closely with several Flagler College students through internships and practicum activities. Their fresh knowledge was absorbed by some of our veteran teachers, which generated a positive experience for teachers and students alike.
Medart has an exciting and active volunteer program. Many parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and community members provide our faculty, staff, and students with help and assistance in enriching activities and educational opportunities. These volunteers have willingly given 4,461 hours of their time to help Medart in its drive to succeed. Our hard working volunteer coordinator, Candace Lowe continues to manage a successful Volunteer Program.
Medart is also proud of its outstanding P.T.O. and the projects undertaken by this group. A landscaping project, which began in the fall of 2002, has continued with the planting of many more trees and shrubs around the school campus. This has helped provide new environmental experiences for our students. Another big project, the annual Carnival, rose over $19,000 gross. Each year, the P.T.O. gives money to teachers for purchasing additional classroom materials. For the 2008-2009 SY, each teacher will receive $100.00 to be spent in the summer of 2008 for consumable supplies. The faculty and staff are treated several times a year to lunches and breakfasts as a ‘Welcome Back’ or ‘Thank You’ from this wonderful parent group. We are supportive and appreciative of our P.T.O. and look forward to another dynamic year.
The school’s Mission and Beliefs were assessed by all stakeholders in the school setting in the 2007-2008 SY. The 2007-2008 SAC and faculty agreed that the Beliefs and Vision needed to be updated to match our high expectations for students to perform at a higher level. Just as the Missions and Beliefs were reestablished for the SACS Report for the Peer Review Team in October 2002, the Mission and Belief statements were updated in the spring of 2008. We feel our Mission and Beliefs are well defined within the focus and boundaries of our expectations.

Recruitment/Retention of Highly Qualified Teachers
Note: Required for Title I
Medart Elementary has consistently had a low turnover of teachers. We employed forty-six teachers for the 2007-2008 SY. Due to the addition of a new elementary school, and the cuts from state funding, we lost six teachers, and our art teacher will be shared with another elementary school. We had one kindergarten teacher leave due to illness, so there will be one new kindergarten teacher. For the 2008-2009 SY, we have forty-five teachers (3 of these are shared with other schools). Based on this data, 93.8% of the teachers returned. Our administration strives to select new teachers that fit our vision, philosophy, and mission of the school.
Medart Elementary had 14.5% of our teachers with a Master's Degree or higher in the 2007-2008 SY. Several of our teachers are currently working on advanced degrees. One hundred percent of Medart’s teachers are teaching in-field and teaching appropriate level content. Our data is proof; Medart Elementary was an A school for 2007-2008 SY.

Pre-School Transition
Medart Elementary Assistant Principal, Sharon Kemp visits Wakulla Educational Center (WEC) and Sopchoppy Educational Center (SEC) in the spring during a Parent (Lapsit) meeting to meet with parents and explain registration requirements. In the spring, Pre-K students from WEC, SEC, and Trinity Lutheran Preschool, come to Medart Elementary for a Kindergarten Orientation. Children visit the kindergarten classrooms and tour the school with the Principal or Assistant Principal. Coordination of services and discussions between administrators and teachers from WEC, SEC, and MES make for a smooth transition to kindergarten for the Pre-K students. At Open House, the Friday proceeding the first day of school, Kindergarten Orientation is provided for students and parents. On the first day of school, Medart encourages parents to come to the Boo-Hoo Breakfast after they take their child to class. This gives parents the opportunity to express their feelings and to be comforted.

SCHOOL ADVISORY COUNCIL
School Advisory Council (SAC) Membership Compliance
The majority of the SAC members are not employed by the school district.
The SAC is composed of the principal and an appropriately balanced number of teachers,
education support employees, students (for middle, junior high and high school only),
parents, and other business and community citizens who are representative of the ethnic,
racial, and economic community served by the school.
Yes. Agree with the above statement.
SAC Involvement
1. By-Laws were discussed and ratified at the September 5, 2008 SAC Team meeting.
2. The dates and topics for the year were discussed and planned for 2008-2009 SY.
3. On September 5,2008, Mr. Pearce discussed A+ monies with the SAC Team. On September 12, 2008 A+ monies were budgeted and recommended by Medart Elementary School Faculty. Budget consisted of bonuses for all last year’s employees. Additional funds were allocated for after school programs. All remaining available funds would be approved later.
4.The School Advisory Council, faculty, and staff looked at the current expectations produced in the School Improvement Plan 2007-2008 SY to see if these were still applicable for the present. The expectations were discussed at several Faculty Meetings and were the foundation for the Goals, Objectives, and Strategies for the School Improvement Plan 2008-2009 SY. The Goals were in direct relationship to the District, and the Objectives and Strategies had minor revisions to help the students at Medart Elementary improve their academic performance. The SAC, faculty, and staff agreed upon all revisions and strategies in May 2008.
5. The school’s SAC routinely collected data about the school’s instructional and organizational effectiveness as it prepared to develop the School Improvement Plan. This included a consistent review of student performance data, the instructional practices occurring in the school, and any changes occurring in the school and community. This process was completed in May 2008 with consensus from all stakeholders.
6. The SAC met monthly and more as needed starting in September 2007 to formulate the School Improvement Plan for 2008-2009 SY. The SAC reviewed the progress of the School Improvement Plan for 2007-2008 SY mid-year and at the end of the year.
The SAC and the faculty agreed that the Goals were in alignment with the District’s Comprehensive Research-Based Reading Plan and District Accreditation. The faculty and staff met several times to improve the plan for the school year 2008-2009.
In 2002-03 SY, we implemented a Professional Development Committee and Plan, based on a Needs Assessment. This four year plan and will return to the beginning of the rotation in 2008-2009 SY. This is to insure all faculty members have the opportunity to participate in local, regional, and state workshops/conferences. The plan is on a rotational cycle and will help keep our teachers abreast of new techniques to help improve student academic performance. Additional teachers outside the rotation are also sent to state conferences, regional, and local workshops as needs emerge. The professional development opportunities have given our educators breadth and depth to improve student performance.
