PART I: CURRENT SCHOOL STATUS

SCHOOL PROFILE/DEMOGRAPHICS


Brief History and Background of the School

Brief History and Background of the School
Lake Gibson Middle School has a proud and distinguished heritage. Built and dedicated in 1975 as Lake Gibson Junior High with grades 7,8, and 9; the school adopted the middle school concept and was renamed Lake Gibson Middle School in 1994 with grades 6, 7, and 8. In 1996, the school added a two-story building to house an additional 16 classrooms.
Lake Gibson Middle School’s population varies between 1100 – 1200 students. The school houses seven portable classrooms due to the continued growth of student population.
We enjoy a strong partnership with the community and currently, there are 40 businesses listed as providers of time, talent, goods, and monies to assist us in preparing our students for the demands of today’s workforce. Lake Gibson Middle School is the only middle school in our region awarded Five-Star School status every year since the program began.
We are located in a rural area of North Lakeland with a large feeder pattern. There are five elementary schools that feed a majority of our students into Lake Gibson Middle School.


Unique School Strengths for Next Year

With a very low staff turnover rate, Lake Gibson Middle enjoys the ability to begin the new school year with minimal training for standard operating procedures. This allows us more time for in-depth professional development in areas of need such as reading across the curriculum.


Unique School Weaknesses for Next Year

As one of only two non-Title I regular middle schools in the district, LGMS is the choice for students testing at levels 1 and 2 on FCAT. Whereas, we do not label this as a weakness it does provide for additional challenges as we attempt to ensure learning gains for greater numbers of low performing students.

School-based RtI Team

Identify the school-based RtI Leadership Team.

Principal – John Barber
Assistant Principals – Sandy Igo and MaryJo Costine
General Ed Teachers – Donna Shattuck, Kelly Weiss, Tracy Chaves, Janice Chandler, Richard Nalette
ESE Facilitator – Gloria Leslie
AIF – Trina Talley
Guidance Counselor – Colinette McGriff
Dean – Deann Wojtylak
Network Manager – Dawn Templin


Describe how the school-based RtI Leadership Team functions (e.g. meeting processes and roles/functions).

The PS/RtI Leadership Team will focus meetings on how to improve school/teacher effectiveness and student achievement using the Problem Solving Model.
The PS/RtI Leadership Team will meet at least once per month (or more frequently as needed) to engage in the following activities:
o Review school-wide, grade level, and teacher data to problem solve needed interventions on a systemic level and identify students meeting/exceeding benchmarks as well as those at moderate or high risk for not meeting benchmarks. This will be done at least three times per year or more frequently if new data is available.
o Help referring teachers design feasible strategies and interventions for struggling students by collaborating regularly, problem solving, sharing effective practices, evaluating implementation, assist in making decisions for school, teacher, student improvement.
o Facilitate the process of building consensus, increasing infrastructure, and making decisions about implementation.
o Focus on improving student achievement outcomes with evidence based interventions implemented with fidelity and frequent progress monitoring.
o Intervention teams also foster a sense of collegiality and mutual support among educators, promote the use of evidence-based interventions, and support teachers in carrying out intervention plans.


Describe the role of the school-based RtI Leadership Team in the development and implementation of the school improvement plan

Members of the PS/RtI Leadership Team met with members of the School Advisory Council (SAC) and principal to help develop the SIP. The team provided data on: Tier 1, 2, and 3 targets; academic and social/emotional areas that needed to be addressed; helped set clear expectations for instruction (Rigor, Relevance, Relationship); facilitated the development of a systemic approach to teaching (Gradual Release, Essential Questions, Activating Strategies, Teaching Strategies, Extending, Refining, and Summarizing); and aligned processes and procedures.




RtI Implementation

Describe the data management system used to summarize tiered data.

Baseline data is gathered through August and September. FAIR data is processed through the Progress Monitoring and Reporting Network (PMRN). Sixth through Eighth Grade instructional data is gathered from the previous year’s FCAT scores.
Progress Monitoring data is gathered mid-year and toward the end of the year. FAIR data is processed twice more through the PMRN. Other Progress Monitoring data is collected as needed for classroom or student progress. This information may be obtained by probes, Read 180 and Fast ForWord.
Diagnostic Assessment data is gathered through the FAIR, SRI, and DAR
End of Year data is gathered through FAIR and FCAT.
Data is discussed and analyzed at least monthly at the PS/RtI Leadership Team Meetings.


Describe the plan to train staff on RtI.

Professional learning will be provided during the teachers’ common planning time and sessions will occur throughout the year. The PS/RtI Overview will be provided in mid-August/September. The District has five other mini-modules that will be provided throughout the year.
The PS/RtI Leadership Team will evaluate additional staff Professional Learning needs during the monthly PS/RtI Leadership Team meetings.



School Wide Florida’s Continuous Improvement Model

Plan

Data Disaggregation 2008-2009 FCAT Data


What strengths and weaknesses were identified in the 2009 data by grade level, subject area, and clusters/strands?


With an overall increase of 6% for a total of 62% of our students scoring 3 or above in FCAT Reading, we are headed in the right direction. Our greatest strength in this area seems to with ensuring growth within the lowest performing population where 73% of those students made learning gains.

Still our gains were not enough to achieve AYP in any subgroup area. Students with disabilities and black students need the most growth while achieving 24% and 39% passing scores. Strands that reflected the poorest scoring were Main idea/Purpose and Comprehension.


Instructional Calendar Development


What is the process for developing, implementing, and monitoring an Instructional Focus Calendar for reading, writing, mathematics, and science?

As an initial step towards implementing FCIM the school will focus on the area of reading. The district has created reading curriculum maps that are accompanied by a course timeline. The course timeline is the starting point for each school’s Instructional Focus Calendar. The district has also developed a timeline for Reading Comprehension Mini-Lessons which will serve as the school’s Reading Instructional Focus calendar. The implementation of the reading mini-lessons will be monitored by the AIF, school leadership team, and administration. Monthly PLC (grade level/department/team) meetings will be held to adjust the pacing of the mini-lessons.


Which instructional Benchmarks will be given priority focus, based on need, for each content area (reading, writing, mathematics, and science)?

In reading, all classes will stress Main idea/Purpose and Comprehension in lesson plan development


What is the process to ensure instruction is based on individual students’ needs, as opposed to the master schedule?

Disaggregation of FCAT data and monthly data PLCs (grade level/department/team) will use the data from FAIR and other progress monitoring tools to identify student needs and provide appropriated interventions.


How does the school incorporate applied and integrated courses to help students see the relationships between subjects and relevance to their future?

The Sunshine State Standards are designed to teach application of skills that are relevant to everyday life. Critical Thinking classes are mandatory for every student. Elective classes are available in band, chorus, orchestra, consumer science, agriculture, yearbook, computers, art, and TV production.


How does the school incorporate students’ academic and career planning, as well as promote student course selections, so that students’ course of study is personally meaningful?

According to the Florida statute, a career and education planning EPEP course will be completed before the end of middle school. Operating within district guidelines we offer this course as a component of 7th and 8th grade Social Studies classes. The course includes career exploration and educational planning, and results in the completion of a personalized academic and career plan. Each student’s plan must be signed by the student, guidance counselor or academic advisor, and the student’s parent.




DO

Direct the Instructional Focus


How are lesson plans and instructional delivery aligned across grade levels and subject areas?


Aligned and prioritized curriculum maps and time lines are used in all core areas. Teachers implement the EATS model for planning and delivery of core curriculum which includes essential questions, activating strategies, high-yield teaching strategies, summarizing and then reteaching as necessary. The district-wide Monthly Reading Comprehension Focus will be used as the basis of the reading mini-lessons.


How are instructional focus lessons developed and delivered?

Model instructional focus lessons were developed by master teachers and are posted within the district curriculum maps for all to use for core instruction. Collaborative PLCs will use the EATS model for creating additional acquisition lessons. Best practices, coaching and support for using Learning Focused Strategies will be provided by the principal, assistant principal, and leadership team. Reading comprehension mini-lessons have been written for grades 3 - 10. Each grade level/department/team will schedule the pacing of the mini lessons as well as the time of delivery during the monthly PLCs dealing with curriculum and instruction. The mini-lessons are organized by instructional day as well as strategy.


How will instructional focus lessons be revised and monitored?

Vertical teams and articulation centered on high quality student work and the results of mini-assessments will guide further revisions or refinements of the instructional focus lessons. Classroom walk-throughs will be used to monitor the quality and effectiveness of the lessons.




CHECK

Assessment


Describe the types of ongoing formative assessments to be used during the school year to measure student progress in core, supplemental, and intensive instruction/intervention.


FAIR, READ 180, Fast ForWord, Compass Odyssey, and AR will be sources of ongoing formative assessments and data.


How are assessments used to identify students reaching mastery and those not reaching mastery?

Achievement thresholds will be set for each grade level and subject area. Students not reaching the threshold will be targeted for additional support as well as monitoring. Formative benchmark assessments are consistently used: school-wide and in all core areas. They are given frequently and used for monitoring student progress, as well as for planning and instruction.


Maintenance


How is ongoing assessment and maintenance of Benchmark mastery for each grade level and content area built into the Instructional Focus Calendar?

Dates for ongoing assessments and spiraled review are built into the instructional focus calendar at the conclusion of each month’s comprehension focus. Additional learning opportunities will be offered to struggling students.


Describe the process and schedule for teams to review progress monitoring data (summative and mini assessments) to identify the required instructional modifications that are needed to increase student achievement.

PLCs (grade level/department/team) will meet monthly to review the most current progress monitoring data and in turn make instructional recommendations to include both interventions as well as enrichment strategies for subgroups of students, as well as individual students.


Monitoring


Describe the Principal’s and Leadership Team’s roles as instructional leaders and how they will be continuously involved in the teaching and learning process.

The administrators and the leadership team facilitate PLCs with staff members/teams which address data, student work, instruction and curriculum. The administrators and the leadership team schedule coaching and monitoring visits to classrooms on a regular basis.




ACT

Supplemental and Intensive Instruction/Interventions


Identify the core, supplemental, and intensive instruction and interventions.


Core instruction will be determined through use of the district curriculum maps. Supplemental and Intensive instruction will be determined following analysis of regular assessments and will be derived from available materials and applicable internet sites.
Students scoring 1 or 2 on FCAT reading will be scheduled into intensive 90 minute daily blocks of reading instruction.


How are supplemental and intensive instruction/interventions and tutorials structured to re-teach non-mastered target areas?

Multiple opportunities for researched based extended learning activities including: extended time for math and /or reading, accelerating and previewing, as well as re-teaching.


How does the school identify staff’s professional development needs to improve their instructional strategies?

The Learning Focused Implementation Tool will be administered at the start of the 2009 – 2010 school year to help identify areas of need for professional development


Which students will be targeted for supplemental and intensive instruction/interventions?

Any student scoring a Level 1 or 2; a student with an ASP; or a student who is struggling with the Core instruction.


How will the effectiveness of the interventions be measured throughout the year?

Ongoing progress monitoring, mini-assessments, formative assessments, student data chats, and FAIR.


Enrichment


Describe alternative instructional delivery methods to support acceleration and enrichment activities.

To be developed by the PS/RtI Leadership team during its September and October meetings.


Describe how students are identified for enrichment strategies.

Students who successfully complete regular class assignments much more quickly than the allotted time and consistently perform well on formal and informal assessments will be targeted for enrichment strategies and activities.
