Marcy Open School: Who We Are

Who We Are Mission Marcy Open provides a respectful environment that emphasizes responsibility, creativity, curiosity, and connectedness to the world. Vision Creating a learning environment emphasizing academic achievement as well as personal development that promotes lifelong learning and individual goal setting. School Stats Our current enrollment is 742 students, K-8. Within our student population, we have 19% Advanced Learners, 17% ELL, 13% Special Education. Our demographics are 41% African/African American, 41% Caucasian, 18% other ethnicities, cultures and races. 52% of our students are qualify for free/reduced price lunch. 3-5 min

Our Current Reality Strengths Challenges We are an International Peace Site, where we focus on social justice and peace. We teach using Open school philosophy, which provides integrated, project-based learning opportunities for students. We partner with Marcy Arts Partnership and have a strong connection to the local Arts Community. We have goal-setting conferences with parents and students each fall to determine individual student goals. Challenges The building capacity is always challenged by the number of students in attendance. All families wishing to attend Marcy may not be able to do so based on our magnet status and boundaries. An achievement gap continues to exists between Students of Color and Caucasian students. 3-5 min Your School’s Current Reality Share strengths about your school’s programs, your progress from the previous year, and what you are looking forward to this school year.

How We Measure Student Progress We want to make sure our students are learning as much as possible, so we use state and district assessments to determine their strengths and areas for growth. The results of these assessments help us figure out how we can better support our students in the classroom. Assessments help us answer questions such as: Are we teaching what we think we are teaching? Are students learning what we intend for them to be learning? Are all students improving and being appropriately challenged? Some of the assessments our students will take this year are: MCAs FAST Benchmark Interims F & P KComs 5 min

How We’ll Share Student Progress with You Throughout the year, we’ll share information with you about how your student is doing in the classroom. We’ll do it in the following ways: Parent-Teacher conferences on October 16th & 17th Quarterly report cards mailed home Phone call and email interactions between teachers and parents, as needed. 3 min

Title I

What is Title I? Title I is a federal program that provides money to schools and districts to help them ensure all children have an equal opportunity to get a high-quality education and achieve proficiency on our state’s academic standards and assessments. 2 min Mention: Title I programs are available to schools with the greatest concentration of low-income families. If appropriate, you could reference the Application for Educational Benefits form and its role in this. Title I supports our School Improvement Plan, and the funding we receive helps us reach our goals.

Marcy Open School is a school-wide Title I program, which means all our students are able to benefit from the services we provide with our Title I funding. For the 2018-2019 school year, we received $293,627 in Title I funding, which makes up 4.6% of our school budget. We are required to use Title I funding to improve the academic achievement of all students and engage YOU, our families, in that process! 2 min
