1 North Reading Middle School School Improvement Plan
2 I. SCHOOL COUNCIL OVERVIEW The Law: A school council is a representative; school building-based committee composed of the principal, parents, teachers, community members and, at the secondary level, students, required to be established by each school pursuant to Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 71, Section 59C. North Reading Middle School Council-Mission Statement: It is the role of the North Reading Middle School to regularly meet and assist in the identification of the educational needs of the students attending the NRMS and to subsequently make appropriate recommendations to the principal for the development, implementation, and assessment of the NRMS Improvement Plan. Specifically the Middle School Council will: 1. Adopt educational goals for the school that are consistent with district educational policies and statewide student performance standards. 2. Help to identify the educational needs of students attending the NRMS. 3. Review the annual school building budget. 4. Formulating a school improvement plan. Council Membership: The principal is responsible for establishing the membership of the School Council "pursuant to a representative process approved by the superintendent and school committee," and to define the size and composition of the council. The following stipulations were considered when the middle school council was established: 1. Parents "have parity with professional personnel on the school councils" (read: the number of parent representatives must be equal to the number of teachers who serve on the council plus the principal). 2. "Not more than fifty percent of the council shall be non-school members." "Non-school members" are defined as members who are "other than parents, teachers, students and staff at the school." 3. The membership of school councils "should be broadly representative of the school building and community." 2

6 North Reading Middle School Mission Statement The mission of the North Reading Middle School is to create a safe, supportive, and challenging academic environment for all students to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for success in a rapidly changing world. North Reading Middle School Core Values RESPECT, RESPONSIBILITY & COMMUNITY Grade and School Configuration Policies EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM North Reading Middle School houses grades 6 8 with a current student population of 608. Creating smaller schools and taking on a Team Approach are important strategies here in North Reading. We believe that smaller schools and teams offer students the most direct path for forging stable relationships with teachers and peers. In general terms our Team approach has the following characteristics: Provides sufficient team and individual planning time to teachers Allows team teachers the flexibility to adjust students daily schedule while they are on team Designates grade level areas of the building We presently have a School within a School model in grade six comfortably housing grade six in one area of our school. We use the Team Approach in all three-grade levels, actively scheduling students and teachers onto academic teams. There are two teams in each grade. Grade six and seven carry four academic core classes (English, math, science and social studies) with two General Arts offerings per day (six period day) and in similar fashion the grade eight program carries a five academic core class load which includes Foreign Language along with two general arts offerings (seven period day). All three grades operate on separate schedules and as a result we do not ring bells. Class Size Policies Although there is no official class size policy in North Reading we work very hard to keep class size manageable in order to optimize learning. At North Reading Middle School every effort is made to keep class sizes in the content classes below thirty. School Scheduling Method At North Reading Middle School each individual grade has its own unique schedule to accommodate the needs of the students in each grade. In grade six and seven we have created a six period class schedule. In grade eight, the schedule is based on a seven period day as we introduce Foreign Language as the fifth core academic class. The school day starts at 7:55 with all students attending a five-minute homeroom period and the school day ends at 2:21. Students have a twenty five minute lunch period, along with their regular classes. 6
7 Students are scheduled into classes in the summer of the preceding school year. Each student takes, math, science, social studies, and English as their core academic classes. Eighth graders also have a foreign language, French or Spanish, as part of their academic core of classes. These classes run for the entire year. Additionally, each student has two general arts blocks each day; these classes consist of art, music, health, video production, tech ed., and robotics. In seventh grade students also take an exploratory foreign language class. These classes run for 1 semester. Band and chorus are also offered during the general arts blocks for students who choose to participate in one or both of these offerings. Band and chorus run for the full year. Additionally, all students take physical education for the full year. Teaching Methodology and Structure We believe that instituting a team approach is an important step in developing a positive, supportive and integrated middle grade learning community. Teams within a middle school model enable young adolescents and educators to interact daily on a formal and informal basis. Teams offer students the most direct path for forging stable relationships with teachers and peers. The team provides the support system that young adolescents need in order to foster their intellectual and interpersonal development. Our team approach consists of four or more teachers and the group of students they commonly instruct. Together, teachers on a team-teach all of the core academic subjects. Some of the benefits to the team approach are: Encourages students to form relationships with team of teachers Allows students to see connections between disciplines (integrated curriculum approach) Creates teams of teachers that take ownership of a specific group of students Encourages collaboration and opportunities for teams of teachers to look at student work together and to talk about individual students who need additional support Our team structure consists of a team leader and the content area teachers. For the school year, the sixth and seventh grade will have two four-person teams. The eighth grade will have two five-person teams. Each team also has a special education teacher and paraprofessional support. Special Education Each grade has 2 special education teachers and 2 para professionals that support students both in and out of the classroom. Each grade also has 2 dedicated learning centers for support that takes place outside of the content classes. Modifications and accommodations are provided to help students access the curriculum to the best of their abilities. Additionally, we have three specialized programs: Pathways, Connections and RISE. These programs are designed to meet the individual needs of the students and are staffed by special education teachers and para professionals. 7

9 III. School Improvement Plan: North Reading Public School District Mission Statement The North Reading Public Schools provide a safe, supportive, and contemporary learning environment where dedication to excellence, service, and life-long learning is paramount. All students are challenged to work collaboratively and to become creative and critical thinkers. Emphasis is placed on mastering core academic knowledge, developing twenty-first century skills, pursuing individual potential, and fostering citizenship in a global society. North Reading Middle School The mission of North Reading Middle School is to create a safe, supportive, and challenging academic environment for all students to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary for success in a rapidly changing world. OVERVIEW It is our belief that to effect lasting change and improvement for our school we need to work towards creating a culture of high expectations that is actively supported by a purposeful community that comes together around a clear focus and does what is needed to accomplish its goals. To this end, we are pleased to publish our School Improvement Plan, We believe this plan will provide the basis for continuous improvement.
