SCHOOL PROFILE DEMOGRAPHICS

Estero High School is situated on 70 acres of land in the Southwest portion of Lee County, Florida. Originally constructed in 1987 as a 9-12 facility, one additional building was added to the campus in the year 2000. Presently there are 83 classrooms, nine science lab rooms, two medical academy rooms, four business technology labs, two drafting and computer assisted drawing rooms, an ROTC room, a childcare classroom and playground, a Culinary Operations classroom, and an outdoor classroom being utilized for instructional delivery.

The newest addition to our academic offering is the Hospitality and Tourism Academy for those students interested in exploring this area of industry as a possible career path. As the Culinary Operations program continues to grow, this new academy along with our geographical location makes the two programs ideal for students to explore possible career opportunities.

The administration building along with the kitchen, Media Center, JROTC , TV Production, Maintenance area, gym and locker room areas all received new HVAC over the spring and summer months. The entire campus has been painted and newly landscaped providing a clean and attractive updated learning environment for both students and staff.

The school is located near Coconut Point Mall in Estero. Continued business partnerships with Dillards, Moe's Southwest Grill, Hurricane's Island Grill, Bice, Smith’s Garage and Publix support the school through the supply of resources for facilities, program enrichment, athletic and activities equipment, technology, and materials.

Unique programs such as the Medical Academy, the new Hospitality and Tourism Academy and the Leadership program attract prospective students to the school.

DEMOGRAPHIC DATA

In the 07-08 school year, even though all sub-groups increased graduation rate by 1%, Estero did not meet Federal AYP. The AYP status for Estero High School was as follows for each sub-group with the exclusion of the increase in graduation criteria:

White – Met Math & Writing criteria, did not meet AYP in Reading
Black – N/A
Hispanic – did not meet AYP in Reading, Math, or Writing
Economically disadvantaged – did not meet AYP in Reading, Math or Writing
Limited English Proficient – did not meet AYP in Reading, Math or Writing


F/R Lunch SY07-08 = 30%
Minority% SY07-08 = 38.2%
ESE % SY07-08 = 11.8%
Mobility Rate SY07-08 = N/A% for SY06-07 =26.2%
Stability Rate SY07-08 = N/A% for SY06-07 =84.6%
Attendance % SY07-08 = N/A%
LEP% SY07-08 = 12.1%

SCHOOL GRADE:

Estero High School received a grade of "C" for 2007-2008. Most concerning was the drop in the percent students meeting high standards in reading along with drop in lowest 25% making learning gains in reading. Data analysis has been extensive over the summer to determine the root cause and focus on a systemic approach to rectifying this dip in scores for our students. Outside experts have been made part of a school-wide reading initiative that crosses the entire curriculum and provides a universal set of instructional strategies for both teachers and students to use.

CHALLENGES:

The short term goal for Estero is to attain a grade of "B" or better and continue to work towards meeting AYP in all categories.

The long term goal for Estero is attain a grade a "A" and to meet AYP.

Extended Learning Opportunities

Note: Required for Title I

After school tutoring is offered in math and reading on an individual and small group basis. Additionally, there are certified teachers on staff who provide tutoring both during student lunch period and after school. NovaNet credit retrieval opportunities are also offered after school for those students needed to regain credit in addition to a full academic schedule.


SCHOOLS GRADED C OR BELOW

Professional Development

We recognize that teachers need to provide multiple instructional strategies so that students of different abilities, interests or learning needs experience equally appropriate ways to absorb, use, develop and present concepts as a part of the daily learning process. It allows students to take greater responsibility and ownership for their own learning and provides opportunities for peer teaching and cooperative learning. To assist teachers in becoming diverse in their instructional styles, teachers are offered a variety of professional development opportunities. This year teachers will be engaged in differentiated instruction, strategies for increased minority achievement in the classroom, writing in all curricular areas, , academic vocabulary building strategies, and Small Learning Communities centered around Reading strategies. Additionally, SMART Board training continued over the summer with both a beginning level and an intermediate user level training offered. As more SMART Boards are integrated into everyday classroom use this additional level of training was requested by teachers for more advanced users.
Teachers will also receive training during the year on Data Folders.

Disaggregated Data

In August, the school faculty participates in school-wide data disaggregation workshop. The staff reviews the disaggregated data school-wide, then meets as a department to begin planning for upcoming year based on data indicated needs.

Progress monitoring data for Reading, Math, Writing and Science is examined closely each quarter.

The 9th and 10th bottom quartile students have been assigned to administration for consistent monitoring. Administrators will be meeting with them to set goals and begin tracking grades and progress. The students have been identified and shared with staff for monitoring within the content areas.

Failure rates for Senior Level courses are monitored in an effort to identify any student that may fall into "at-risk" status without prior indication so that appropriate intervention strategies can keep this student on track to graduate.

Informal and Formal Assessments

• Progress Monitoring Resource Network (PMRN) for Reading
• Math Progress Monitoring data
• Interactive Writing Lab
• Accelerated Math
• Classroom Assessments --- on-going
• Yearly - FCAT (Oct. Retakes, Feb. Writing, March)

Alternative Instructional Delivery Methods

• SMART Board technology in the classroom
• One-on-one individual teacher instruction
• Small group instruction
• Peer tutoring
• Cooperative Learning Groups
• Hands-on Instructional activities
