Reflections on the 2006-07 School Year
While focusing on the efforts to move Fairview Elementary School students and staff to the previous Roosevelt Middle School campus in September 2007, staff and teacher efforts continued to reach set student assessment goals. Baseline data is not in place for Roosevelt Elementary School, but approximately 60% of its students and staff are from Fairview. Initial Fairview spring assessments will create a baseline with which to align instruction. Some spring WASL highlights are:
- The Reading/Math Index (RMI) shows improvement of Fairview’s WASL scores to be in the top 8% (73rd of 1,020) in the state.
- Fourth grade writing improved from 59% to 68% students achieving standard, specifically a 20% gain in content, organization, and style. (1.2)
- The percent of fifth grade students achieving standard in math increased to 71.7%. (1.3)
We are excited to begin a new era at the Roosevelt campus, which is housing elementary students for the first time!
Plans for the 2007-08 school year
Student Learning. Roosevelt’s approach to student achievement is caring and nurturing, yet data-driven with a problem-solving “no excuses” foundation. Key components of the Roosevelt Continuous School Improvement Plan are rigor, relevance and relationships. Rigor: Adjustments to curriculum, as well as instructional practice, will be made this year in response to last year’s Fairview data. It is not perfectly reflective of our current student population, but it will give us a launching point for the first set of baseline data assessments.
We will fine tune the curriculum and instruction to best fit our new student population. Relevance: Real world practice is an important aspect of our educational program. Our approach will be to integrate all curricular areas with reading functioning as a hub for our integration. Relationships: We will build strong traditions and relationships with parents and provide opportunities for our community to share in our students’ success. Students will learn about the environment, cultures, and life connections while preparing for our Dinner Show, Potlatch, Curriculum Nights, Reading Night, and other opportunities outside the regular curriculum.
Professional Development. Staff development will focus on implementation of the Response to Intervention (RTI) Model. This model will allow students to receive support before they fail. Our biggest challenge will be making the conversion from our current special education model where students must first be considerably behind their grade level before receiving intervention beyond regular
education parameters.
School Climate. We have a rare opportunity to build a community around our school. We have a facility that is second to none in the Port Angeles School District. We have an experienced staff with a diverse set of backgrounds. We have the honor of housing a special education team whose teachers and students model what true dedication and determination mean. We have the formula for the most successful elementary school in the state. That is our goal.
How Can You Help?
Every child deserves the opportunity to succeed. But not all children learn in the same way at the same time. The parents, friends of Roosevelt students and our community are all instrumental in providing the additional support that makes learning at Roosevelt motivating and rewarding. We need your support to continue our rich history of an elementary school that cares for kids and celebrates success. Please call us at 360.452.8973.
