School LAND Trust Program

The expenditures listed in General Supplies seem to be incorrectly categorized;

we will correct this problem for the 07-08 school year.  We purchased 6

additional LCD projectors, 9 DVD/VCR combos and audiovisual carts for each

system.  This should have been categorized under Audiovisual and Technology

Related Hardware and Other Equipment.This supports our educational needs to

support and improve teacher effectiveness with the use of technology.  Then in

turn, this supports each of our academic goals in reading, writing, mathematics

and science.

This question is not applicable.

Naples School Land Trust Committee members again agreed that, in order
to

use the upcoming School Land Trust funds to best support our ongoing
goal

of

improving students' reading/language arts skills, we will
purchase leveled

books and other language arts materials for classrooms and
for our leveled

library.

The Trust Lands money that CJH received last year was used to purchase
technology in the classroom (i.e. projectors, televisions).  This use of
technology assisted our teachers in meeting each academic goal listed.We
continued to fund our READ 180 lab which supports our below grade level readers
and our reading goal.  We funded a Homework Lab two days a week.  This lab
provided one on one tutoring for any student - primarily in Math, however
students also received support in Science, Language Arts and Social Studies. 
This program supports math, science, reading and writing goals.

Our goal is for every student to experience at least one year's
academic

growth during the 2006-2007 school year.

     71%Non-Academic:    Student's placement in Advisory was done to allow a
student to have their advisory teacher                                be a
teacher on their regular schedule - which affords the teacher the opportunity to
get to know                               the student on an academic and
non-academic setting.  This also provides opportunities for the teacher-        
                     student relationship (advocate relationship) to develop.

Academic improvement will be measured or assessed using a variety
of

measures, including - but not limited to - informal reading
inventories,

running records, DIBELS, NWEA, and State CORE assessments.

Any additional funds will be spent to purchase additional books and
materials to support teaching and learning in the area of reading/language
arts, as described above.

We were grateful for the additional funds received to support academic
achievement.  The additional monies were carried over into the 2007-2008 Trust
Lands budget.

This plan relates directly to, and strongly supports, the Naples School
Improvement Plan by allowing for the purchase of materials and supplies to
enhance teaching and learning - and thereby student academic growth - in
the area of reading/language arts.
