The Program Goals Personalization Collaboration Communication

HOW ARE WE ACCOMPLISHING PERSONALIZATION?

Adventurelore 9/16-19 Both students and teachers took part in team building and risk taking activities to strengthen 21 st century skills such as collaboration and problem solving.

Freshman Advisory With a revised curriculum, including two study days and a silent reading day, we have merged the academic and social education in the program. Students have taken part in Project X, in helping the school newspaper, and in preparing “come to Timberlane” PSA’s.

HOW ARE WE ENCOURAGING COLLABORATION?

1)Common planning time- allows for deeper discussion around students and school initiatives. 2)Team-wide collaboration around vocabulary instruction. 3)Continued focus on academy-wide study skills- utilizing advisory. 4)Professional camaraderie and sharing between disciplines and levels

HOW ARE WE FACILITATING COMMUNICATION?

1)Weekly team meetings – increased inclusion of guidance and non-core teachers. 2)Streamlined communication to parents 3)Increased use of team/course websites. 4)Whole academy meetings each month.

HOW DO WE KNOW IT IS WORKING?

Behavioral incidents are down significantly

The number of students who feel a connection to an adult other than their guidance counselor has risen from 77% to 86%. Semester 1 grade distribution has remained fairly consistent to last year.

WHAT’S AHEAD FOR 14-15?

STAR assessment will help ensure appropriate student placement. Revised advisory program for school year. Academy-wide common vocabulary chart will be finalized. Streamlined supports for both students needing support and enrichment. Continued focus on reading and literacy.
