PRINCPAL’S REPORT:

Next meeting we will release the CCRPI data. McMullen explained it as our school report card (content master. Progress points-how well our students have grown, attendance, Lexile scores). We just received our preliminary math data. Middle school students received a tough conversation that Hesse K8 falls in the last quartile of the state of Georgia. They couldn’t understand they were done there with other local schools. Our mindset for middle school is that the culture does not match deficient scores.

 EOY iReady Data: Overall 49 percent was considered on grade level in Reading. Our previous SIP goal stated that 45.5-50 percent would be on grade level. Overall, 44 percent of our students were considered on grade level in Math. Our previous SIP goal stated that

37.5-42.5 percent would be on grade level.

Schoolwide Reflection: Based on discussion from the May 7^th Leadership Team meeting. Strengths for the school: effective leadership and professional capacity.

Effective leaderships:

-builds, and sustains relationships to foster the success of students and staff -

-builds leadership capacity through decision making and problem solving

-establishes and supports a data driven school leadership team that is focused on student learning.

-aligns professional learning with needs identified through analysis of a variety of data

Areas of Growth: coherent instruction (establishes and communicates clear learning targets and success criteria aligned to the curriculum standards, uses research based instructional practices that positively impact student learning, differentiates instruction to meet specific learning needs of students, provides feedback to students on their performance on the standards or learning target, implement a process to collaboratively analyze assessment results to adjust instruction, implement grading practices that provide an accurate indication of student progress on the required standards), effective leadership (uses protocols to maintain the school campus and equipment providing a safe, clean and inviting learning environment), family and community engagement standard (the school occasionally develops the capacity of families to use support strategies at home that will enhance academic achievement, creates an academically challenging learning environment, establishes a culture of trust and respect that promotes positive interactions and sense of community, support the personal growth and development of students)

*Shared Action Step: There will be engagement meetings where parents will receive more information about the science of reading and the alignment of the new curriculum HMH.

*Understanding our demographics are changing but our expectations should not be changing.

New Goals

We will look at this 45 Day SIP Action Plan throughout the year. Leadership will provide feedback, and McMullen will share with the school. Reading will increase from 49-52 percent where strategies include: HMH, using the Science of Reading/LETRS training for strong phonics instruction, ability-based classrooms (we understand there are personality barriers between students, but we are working on the cohesive classroom environments), I Ready usage is using 30-45 minutes of I Ready max per week, AMIRA weekly usages in K-3.

Breaking Down Subgroups: Gifted Learners, Special Education, EL, and Economically Disadvantaged

Using Data Notebooks-Teachers are conferring with students about their data Students are eager about the glow party as motivation.

Coteaching model- Teachers working together to enhance

Arts Now Integration: Social studies and science middle school classrooms will have the art infusion. Making those classes more desirable to be in and allow students to have the opportunity to show what they learn in a new way.

Music, Visual Arts, Theater, Dance

POW-Problem of the Week, WOW-Word of the Week

-dedicate the first 5-7 minutes of every DIG block for vocabulary instruction.

-Mrs. Cebollero is our new title 1 parent engagement facilitator. She is working with McMullen to bring parents in.

Discipline Goal

Teachers are contacting 20 parents quarterly for a positive outreach.

Mentorship program: every staff member (130) will meet at least monthly with one assigned student within mentor mentee relationship.

Title I Plan Review

Baseline Data Review-iReady

28 percent of students on grade level in reading 18 percent of students on grade level in math

The beginning of the year, i-Ready data was reviewed. We noticed that data declined in middle school for reading and math.

PRINCPAL’S REPORT:

Principal's Report:

Overview:

The meeting began with an explanation of the Title I program. Title I is a federally funded initiative that provides additional resources and support to schools, helping ensure that all students receive a high-quality education, particularly those from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

Key Points Discussed:

• The purpose of Title I is to improve academic achievement and provide targeted assistance to students in need, ensuring equity in education.
• The school’s current Title I eligibility was highlighted, with 70% of students qualifying for free and reduced lunch. This represents a significant change from five years ago, showcasing the growing need for these resources within our community.

Conclusion:

• The meeting emphasized the importance of Title I in supporting the educational needs of all students, and parents were encouraged to stay engaged with the program’s initiatives to help further enrich the learning experience.

 Title 1 Funds Overview:

• The meeting focused on how Title I funds are being allocated to support student achievement, staff morale, and parent engagement.

Key Points Discussed:

Before & After School Programs:

• Leadership shared that the current before and after school programs have not been effective in supporting staff morale. As a result, the team is exploring the creation of a Saturday school/camp as an alternative, which would better meet the needs of both students and staff.

Materials and Supplies:

• Title I funds have been used to purchase instructional materials and supplies that enhance classroom learning and provide additional resources for teachers and students.

Parental Involvement:

• Funds have also supported activities aimed at increasing parental involvement, helping to build stronger connections between the school and families.

Literacy Night:

• Plans are underway for a Literacy Night in the second semester, which will offer a fun, engaging way for families to participate in promoting literacy and learning.

Book Vending Machine:

• The introduction of a book vending machine, which will be integrated into the Bear Bucks system, was discussed. Students will be able to use Bear Bucks to "purchase" books from the vending machine, providing an exciting incentive for positive behavior and academic achievements.

Conclusion:

• Title I funds are being used strategically to support both student and staff needs, with an emphasis on fostering a positive learning environment, increasing family involvement, and enhancing educational resources.
• We have two Title 1 support teachers who push into classrooms based on student needs in 1st and 2nd grade as well as 3rd and 4th grade. We are working to build our parent resource center with educational materials and resources for families to check out and use at home. Title 1 funds have been released so that we can utilize it.
• The title 1 program leads to children doing better in school and feeling better about themselves. Mrs. McMullen suggested that we take a walk around the school to see what has been brought to fruition. Moment of transparency: We are working on understanding between parents and teachers to collaborate for the good of the student. Teachers are maintaining a communication log as accountability for communication.
• Parent letters about HMH are being sent home for parents to build understanding of their child and education. We have an open-door policy for parents and visitors to see what is taking place in our classrooms.
• School wide requirement is that all students are in the Title 1 program. Comprehensive needs Assessment was discussed at the last meeting as well as the annual review and the schoolwide plan.

Goals were reviewed:

• Goal 1: Using the i-Ready EOY 2025 diagnostic results, the percentage of students in grades K-8 scoring on or above grade level reading will increase 40 to 52 percentage by May 2025.
• Goal 2: Using the iReady EOY 2025 diagnostic results, the percentage of students in grades k-8 scoring on or above grade in the following subgroups
• Goal 3:
• Goal 4: Student Behavior Cultural insensitivity is outweighing the violent behavior is our biggest concern in discipline. There is a chance we won't meet that goal for the school year.

Assessments:

iReady, DRC Beacon, GMAS, Progress Learning, GKIDS, Amira, Access

• Data talks are taking place in the classroom and preparing for the week of iReady MOY testing. GMAS will take place in April through May. Progress learning is used by middle school teachers and students to analyze on going data. Our school goals are accessed on iReady assessments. This assessment makes us project proficiency before GMAS and guides instruction.
• School parent compacts were sent home and should have been returned by now. It shows what we do at school and shows how you help at home. Our compact is at the very bottom of the school page. Title 1 links are continuously being updated on the site.
• Mrs. Garret suggests that parent volunteers be co-sponsors to support students. We discussed that we could have a trunk or treat hosted by our school compared to Compassion Christian. We noticed that our attendance was lower because of the Saturday time and calendar date (same as SSU Homecoming weekend). We would be mindful of the local event calendar for the next school year.
• In the Bear Country News, we include links to the Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE) where parents can access overviews of the various academic standards. Parents also requested sample questions to help them better understand what their children are learning. To support this, we are using grade-level newsletters as a guide, providing parents with insight into what students are working on in the classroom.

NEW BUSINESS:

Ideas for Parental Involvement:

• A suggestion was made to plan for a Family Engagement Day, taking into account the possibility of bad weather. It was noted that there is still a gap in communication and connection between the PTA, parents, and the school.
• Additionally, a Volunteer Meet and Greet will be organized to invite parents to learn more about volunteering opportunities. We also discussed ways to make the school more inviting and welcoming for parents, encouraging them to visit and engage with the school community.

PRINCPAL’S

REPORT:

Savannah Musical (Musical Explorers) – Change of Pace

•  A shift in the concert structure is being considered, including shorter concert durations and potential changes in the funding model.
• There is discussion about requiring all participating schools to contribute financially, with private schoolspossibly paying higher rates to attend.
•  We will arrange a meeting with the SCCPSS School Board and Mr. Butler to assess the current partnership and explore how we can strengthen or redefine the relationship moving forward.
•  Savannah Musical will be submitting a mid-year report to summarize progress, highlight challenges, and propose next steps.

CCRPI (College and Career Ready Performance Index) Review

 The CCRPI scores have been officially released. These scores are calculated using various metrics, including:

• Standardized test mastery
• Student progress and growth
• Closing the achievement gap
• Student readiness indicators
• School climate ratings
• Financial efficiency

 Historical Data:

2018 CCRPI Scores:

• Elementary School: 69.2 (D)
• Middle School: 70.8 (C)
• "Closing the Gap" Indicator: 67.3
•  We took an amount of time to compare our school climate, growth data, and subgroups from 2018 until now.

 Current Observations:

 Subgroup Performance & Equity Focus:

• We are hyper-focused on subgroup performance, including Students with Disabilities, English Learners, and the Black student population.
• The team has engaged in courageous conversations surrounding implicit bias and the need for intentional planning to address gaps.
• We are seeing growth in mindset and instructional approaches as a result of this self-awareness and dialogue.

Elementary School Data:

• Reading: Students demonstrated some progress, but not enough to meet growth targets.
• Students with Disabilities showed significant challenges in meeting expectations.

Middle School Data:

• ELA (English Language Arts) remains a key area of concern, particularly for our identified subgroups.

Post-COVID Enrollment and Demographics:

• Post-COVID, we have experienced declining enrollment, largely due to a shift to private schools.
• Our student demographics have stabilized, now balanced across Hispanic, Black, and White populations.

Academic Trends:

• Two years post-COVID, data still shows:
• Red flag indicators in ELA, science, and social studies.
• Math scores from the previous year were not factored into CCRPI due to the adoption of a new curriculum and updated standards.

Support for Black Subgroup:

• Our data shows we are still underperforming in supporting our Black student subgroup.
• We are conducting deep dives into instructional practices and curriculum planning, ensuring alignment with equity and academic rigor.
• HMH curriculum is being used intentionally to support standards-based instruction.

Curriculum and Language Support

• Mrs. Garrett advocated for increased access to Spanish-language texts to better serve our English Learner population.
  • She specifically requested Spanish versions of core texts and identified the value of online HMH platforms, which offer text-to-speech features in Spanish.
• Overall, , staff report satisfaction with the HMH curriculum at both the elementary and middle school levels, particularly in its ability to scaffold learning for diverse student needs.

MOY (Middle of Year) i-Ready Data

• The latest i-Ready math data shows we are only 1% away from last year's performance, indicating flat growth.
• It was noted that 50% of the current kindergarten cohort are English Learners, a data point that will influence future instructional and staffing decisions.

Athletics Department

•  The department has been actively expanding opportunities for student-athletes, with a strong focus on growth and community engagement.
• This spring, we successfully added Track and Field to our athletic offerings, providing students with a new competitive outlet and increased exposure to individual and team-based events.
• Looking ahead to the fall, we are exploring collaboration opportunities with neighboring schools to field a combined football team, allowing our students to participate even without a full in-house program.
• Our athletes and coaches are also becoming more visible in the community by hosting sports clinics and making public appearances throughout the city, which enhances school spirit and builds local support.
• With the arrival of our new Athletic Director, there is a renewed commitment to a student-first athletic vision—one that focuses on developing well-rounded individuals who can achieve and succeed both now and at the next level.
• We are also in the early planning stages of developing a Booster Club that would provide financial and community support for: Athletics, Cheerleading and Our Pep Band.
• This booster club initiative will help create a stronger school culture and offer more resources for student programs beyond the classroom.
