The members of the Naples School Land Trust Committee agreed that, in order to use the school's 2003-2004 School Land Trust to best support our ongoing goal of improving students' reading/language arts skills, we will purchase books and supplies to further support the implementation of balanced literacy. These purchases will include additional books and materials for the school's leveled library, leveled books and language arts materials for classrooms, and resource books to help teachers implement research-based reading and writing instructional strategies. Our goal is that each Naples School student will experience at least one year's academic growth in the area of reading/language arts during the 2003-2004 school year. Academic growth will be measured by analyzing running records and state- and district-mandated end-of-level tests.

11. How does this plan relate to the school improvement/strategic plan?

This plan relates directly to, and strongly supports, the Naples School Improvement plan by allowing for the purchase of books and materials to foster student academic growth in the area of reading/language arts.

Naples Elementary's School Land Trust money has allowed students to
benefit from the purchase of books and supplies to further support our
implementation of balanced literacy, thus enhancing our ongoing goal of
improving students' reading/language arts skills.  These purchases have
included additional books and materials for the school's leveled library,
leveled books and language arts materials for classrooms, and resource
books to help teachers implement research-based reading and writing
instructional strategies.

Naples School students have shown progress in the area of reading/language
arts.  Teachers have assessed student progress by using a variety of
measures, including informal reading inventories, running records, DIBELS
assessment tool, oral reading fluency checks, writing rubrics, and other
measures.  We will analyze Utah State Core Assessment results to determine
whether or not individual students have met the goal of experiencing at
least one year
