2 Core Function: Effective Practice: Dimension A - Instructional Excellence and Alignment High expectations for all staff and students KEY A1.07 ALL teachers employ effective classroom management and reinforce classroom rules and procedures by positively teaching them.(5088) In the past we have used the peace curriculum based on the Montessori philosophy. We have also implemented strategies such as time outs with the curriculum facilitator, media specialist, and guidance, the peace room, and other tools. Discipline referrals will decrease. A positive climate will be the norm on a daily basis. All teachers will use the same strategies to manage classrooms regardless of age/grade level. Students will become more independent and responsible for the behaviors and have a sense of accountability for their actions. 08/14/2017 Pamela Ford 06/20/2019 Action(s) Created Date 0 of 2 (0%) 1 2 8/14/17 9/11/17 Teachers will attend additional training sessions on Restorative Practices and other classroom management related training sessions.

3 Core Function: Effective Practice: Dimension A - Instructional Excellence and Alignment Curriculum and instructional alignment KEY A2.04 Instructional Teams develop standards-aligned units of instruction for each subject and grade level.(5094) Evidence that the indicator has been implemented are: PLC meeting agendas, (SharePoint)posted lesson plans, data meeting minutes, professional development planning days, modified post assessments, common assessments. 08/09/2016 We will continue to refine and develop instructional units that are aligned with state and district standards in PLCs and data meetings and continue to work with a common lesson plan template. Differentiation will continue to be the focus throughout the planning process. To meet and exceed this objective lead teachers will develop, create, and organize grade level standards maps and quick assessments that will be housed in OneDrive. Lead teachers will discuss and review data tracking sheets from students and teachers. Teachers will keep and use student data for each standard in Math, ELA, and Science.

7 Core Function: Effective Practice: Dimension A - Instructional Excellence and Alignment Student support services KEY A4.01 The school implements a tiered instructional system that allows teachers to deliver evidence-based instruction aligned with the individual needs of students across all tiers.(5117) The current level of development in this indicator is limited. Staff will continue to implement interventions such as IST, folder friends, PEP's, progress monitoring. These interventions will be reflected upon and adapted as needed. 08/09/2016 In addition, to meet the needs of students across all tiers improvements can be made such as: improved teacher/student attendance, incentives, increased teacher accountability for tiered instruction and leadership in the classroom, utilizing support staff, continuous parent contact, increased collaboration with colleagues/parents/social worker/guidance counselor/ specialist/support staff, and increased peer support for teachers. In order to meet and exceed growth in this objective teachers will use research-based practices, district maps, coaching from regional personnel, standard maps, unit plans, support staff (guidance counselor, social worker, school psychologist, etc.), and other auxiliary resources in order to provide quality instruction within the three tier instructional system.

Some suggestions are: professional development on the topic of how to become more attentive to the students' emotional well being, how to assist students with emotional self-management, programs to assist parents with understanding and managing the emotional states of their children. Professional Development opportunities will be provided/scheduled that focus on the students' emotional well being.

17 that a continuous system of recruitment and selection of personnel be maintained in order to assure competent candidates for vacancies as needed. The district attaches a high priority to securing the most competent personnel available and, once they are employed, in assisting them in their professional growth and development throughout their careers. The district regards a personnel evaluation plan as a critical and essential part of professional growth. The Board acknowledges that the most important aspect of attaining excellence in education is the quality of the teaching staff and the administrative staff. The Board therefore adopts as policy and states its determination to strive for such excellence, and further declares its intent to employ and reemploy only those teachers and administrators who possess, have exhibited, and continue to strive for excellence in their preparation for, performance of, and contribution toward the educational process. Achievement of a proficient rating on the North Carolina Teacher or Administrator summative evaluation is the minimum acceptable standard of performance for teachers and administrators in this school system. However, proficient performance shall not constitute any assurance to any teacher or administrator of rights to or consideration for employment or reemployment. The Board of Education holds all personnel accountable for striving for a summative rating of distinguished on all performance. 08/09/2016 School Response: During interviews the Principal utilizes an interviewing committee to include faculty from various grade levels, candidates are prescreened before being invited for an interview, candidates are asked to teach a sample lesson or bring in artifacts/portfolio.
