School LAND Trust Program

Reading:  Improve Reading Fluency and Comprehension at all grade levels through
the continued use of daily tutors, SuccessMaker ILS, Interventions implemented
as a result of analyzing DIBELS data.		
Writing:  Improve Writing Across the Curriculum through the increased use of
the SWAT writing team.		
Mathematics:  Improve Math scores through the increased use of manipulatives,
SuccessMaker, UTIPS, and the continuation of our math tutors and after school
program.		
Science:  Improve Science scores through the use of Science Boxes and lessons
for each grade level and through meeting with grade levels 4-6 to plan a
strategy for CRT success.		
Health:  Continued participation in the Gold Medal Schools Program and to
achieve Gold Medal status once again.		

Student learning is being and will be improved by hiring personnel to tutor
first graders in reading during the school day, staff to run our after school
program, and providing professional development to improve reading, writing, and
technology instruction.

The SuccessMaker ILS reports will report gains made by students using this
program 3-4 sessions per week.  QRIs administered by our reading teacher will
be
another source of data.  All students are and will continue to be tested with
the DIBELS assessments to note and track gains.   Classroom assessments on
specific core standards to measure interventions provided by individual
teachers.

Personnel will be hired to tutor and progress monitor second graders who are
still struggling with reading.

The Trust Lands Plan and School Improvement Plan are created together as one
plan. Trust Lands is part of the School Improvement Plan.

Our funds were spent in the following manner: Salaries: $13,000.00 to date for
two first grade tutors who work with all students in the grade level every day
in reading instruction, SWAT and DIBELS team leaders and teachers to run our
morning math programs and our SWKN (Closed Circuit Weely News Producer);
General
Supplies: $5000.00 in General ledger items which included Staff Development
tuition and expenses which improve student achievement in all curriculum areas
through training of their teachers, AR quizzes,  DIBELS training for our
volunteers who have been administering our DIBELS assessments, Student Council
Conference , educational assemblies, and some technology expenses related to
placing current Microsoft software in labs and classrooms that our students
might be more proficient in writing in the labs.

General supplies include:  AR quizzes, afterschool and staff development books
and materials,  additional science supplies and math manipulatives, DIBELS
timers and supplies to administer the DIBELS assessments.

Mathematics

Reading

Science

Science: Improve Science skills, as measured by CRTs, by implementing after
school science hands on modules facilitated by Community Council volunteers.
Reading: Improve and increase interventions and student reading achievement, as
measured by the CRTs, by expanding the DIBELS assesment program to include wider
progress monitoring of students. Mathmatics: Improve and increase interventions
and student math skills, as measured by CRTs, by creating and administering
schoolwide standards-based math assessments. 

Science:  Student achievement will be increased using teachers and volunteers to
tutor students in curriculum based after- school science activities.  Activities
will be open to all students from grades 4-6.   Trustlands funds will be used to
fund this program and personnel required to run it.  We plan to fund two Science
Assemblies per year for all students.  These assemblies will be curriculum based
and will relalte to concepts being taught and assesed within the classroom.
Reading:  First grade tutors will be retained using Trustlands funds.  All
first grade students receive the opportunity to read to, work on phonics and
decoding skills, at least once per day.   Our afterschool program will use our
SuccessMaker program as well as teachers assisting students with work completion
to increase achievement. Students eligible include those scoring a 1 or 2
proficiency on the CRTs.  Each student will come one night per week for one hour
to receive additional time and tutoring from teachers hired with Trustlands
funding.   Our AR program will be continued and will serve as a reading
incentive program with the goal of increasing student reading and ultimately
increasing student achievement.  Books and quizzes will be purchased with
Trustlands funds.  All students are eligible.  5th grade students will improve
their reading, writing and communitcation skills through participating in
writing, and presenting our SWKN weekly closed circuit news broadcast.
Math:   Trustlands funds will be used to fund a Curriculum Based Math
Assessment.  These assessments will be given three times per year with weekly
progress monitoring for students falling below proficiency.  Our SWAT team\'s
focus will shift to math.  Our SWAT leader, hired by Trustlands, will now be
available to organize math manipulative boxes, gather parent volunteers for
tutoring, and assist teachers particularly with the tutoring of math times
tables and other math facts.  All students are eligible.

Science:
     In addition to CRT results, we will use classroom assessments on specific
Core standards to monitor students\' progress in Science.  

Math:
    In addition to CRT results, we will use ILS gains, school wide curriculum
based math assessment, and classroom assessments on specific Core standards to
monitor targeted students\' progress. 

Reading:
   In addition to CRT results, we will use ILS gains, DIBELS,  In addition to
CRT results, we will use ILS gains, and classroom assessments on specific Core
standards to monitor all students\' progress, and classroom assessments on
specific Core standards to monitor targeted students\' progress.

Reading:  We would like to continue our very successful reading tutors program
to include grade levels 2 and 3.

The Trust Lands Plan and School Improvement Plan are created together as one
plan. Trust Lands is part of the School Improvement Plan.

We plan to use the funds for bus costs on goal-related field trips, admissions
to field trip locations, and for student council expenses related to their
travel, admissions, and printing costs.  For travel we plan to use $350.00, for
admissions and the remaining $150.00 will be used for printing. 

General supplies include:  AR quizzes, afterschool program and staff development
books and materials,  additional science supplies and math manipulatives for the
math boxes along with math facts materials for tutoring, DIBELS timers and
supplies to administer the DIBELS assessments.  Also, the purchase of the
curriculum based math assessment tracking tools for our yet to be chosen CBM
assessment.  Our Science assemblies will be funded by Trustlands funds.

Since we will have computer labs in both buildings, Trustlands funding will
also be used to buy licenses for computers as we will have more computers than
we have at the present time.  This software purchase will provide up to date
word processing software for our students to increase their keyboarding and
writing proficiency.

Trustlands funding will also be used to update our video camera so we can
continue our SWKN weekly closed circuit news broadcast.  There will also be some
small expenditiures for supplies for our news broadcast. 

The carry over for the 2009-10 year of more than one-third the funds received
results from the fact that we did not have the after school program in the
previous years\' format.  Our after school program facilitator suddenly became
very ill and missed a great deal of school.  For this reason, we canceled the
program as a whole and went with teachers tutoring select students after school.
 This was not funded by Trust Lands, but was done by volunteer effort.  We will
have two buildings at our location next year K-2 and 3-6.  We feel that the
carry over will be best used as we look to facilitate the needs of the two
separate schools.  It is a unique opportunity, working within our plan, to
utilize this generous funding on two different levels of the elementary school
experience.
