EDUCATIONAL PHILOSOPHY

 

We believe the major concern and purpose of education in America is the development of the individual student to the utmost of his abilities in order to perform a responsible role in society.  Therefore, it is the responsibility of the school to develop the intellectual, physical, moral, ethical, social, and vocational skills of its students.

 

 


 

MISSION STATEMENT

 

The Sunrise School District’s purpose is to prepare and inspire all students to become contributing members of our society.

 

 


 

BELIEF STATEMENTS

 

We believe:

                       

¨       Learning is the lifelong process of reasoning and thinking.

¨       All students need a positive self-concept to learn and succeed at an optimum level.

¨       The effective learning environment is built on a partnership and sense of shared responsibility among home, community, and school and establishes high expectations for all students.

 

 


 

SCHOOL MOTTO

 

“We Enter to Learn….We Leave to Achieve.”


 

INTRODUCTION

 

School improvement is a continuing mission for Sunrise School.  Comprehensive planning involving the Board of Education, administration, staff, community and students is the process used to achieve desired results.  Planning is on-going with goals, outcomes, and objectives to direct the improvement efforts of the district.  The team listed below was organized for the purpose of formulating a Strategic Planning Committee to assist in the development of our Comprehensive School Improvement Plan for Sunrise R-IX School District.  The strategic planning committee designed the overall direction that they would like to see our district headed towards, which was the basis for our 2008 Comprehensive School Improvement Plan. The CSIP team then designed objectives, strategies and action steps, and measurable outcomes for the achievement of long-range goals for the district.  Implementation of the plan will require change and the cooperation of all involved – Board of Education, school personnel, parents, involved community members, and students.  We are committed to this mission.

PLANNING & DISTRIBUTION

CSIP

Along with the school mission statement, the Comprehensive School Improvement Plan (CSIP) drives our school.  This is the tool that not only gives us direction, but provides very specific objectives and strategies to achieve our goal.

This CSIP is the result of a recent Missouri School Improvement Review in February.  This is an evaluation of our school’s performance based on actual data from tests, student, parent, and teacher surveys, and personal interviews. The district received the preliminary results of this evaluation in June of 2008. We were able to put together our team shortly there after and met during June, July and August of 2008. The team consisted of community members, students, parents, teachers, administrators and board of education members. The teams plan was to address all of the areas of weakness or concern.  The team met four times and came up with some overall goals.  Our administrators then developed more specific objectives and strategies to achieve these goals.  This plan will be presented to the BOE in November for their approval.

 

The district conducted staff in-service training regarding the purpose and intent of the CSIP.  The district formulated the above planning team.  The team was responsible for the creation of and contents of the plan document.  The planning committee collected feedback from staff, parents, community members and students to incorporate into the comprehensive plan.  The team utilized the district’s MSIP results, AYP/APR data, long-range facility and financial needs, Library Media Standards assessment, etc. to help guide the district’s plan.  The planning team collaborated with various district committees already in existence to support the school.  The CSIP is designed to improve student performance, and guide complex educational program adjustments.  The planning team focused on overall academic achievement, reading achievement, career preparation, and educational persistence during the preparation of the plan.  The plan ties together short-range and long-range plans and breaks them down into workable step-through document to assist the district in achieving its mission and goals.

 

After final revision and Board of Education approval, the CSIP document will be distributed to each staff member and discussed at the first staff meeting in December 2008.  In addition, the CSIP document will be available on the district’s web page and in the central office for public review.


 

ANALYSIS OF FACTORS

 

An analysis of internal and external factors was conducted through various means to assess current status, thus identifying improvement areas.  Internal analyses sources included annual program reviews, needs assessments, and local surveys.  These sources provided information regarding curriculum, resources, facilities, success of state and federal programs, professional development, attendance rate, dropout rate data, and student performance.  External analyses sources include the *MSIP results, state and federal program requirements, demographics, and population changes of the community and state standards.  After analyzing these internal and external factors, the CSIP team identified the following goals, objectives, and action steps to address the district’s strengths and weaknesses and meet the goals herein.

General Notes:

School level calculations do not include students that have been in the building less than a full academic year.

District level calculations do not include students that have been in the district less than a full academic year.

To meet AYP all subgroups that met the minimum cell size requirements must meet the Annual Proficiency Target, have tested at least 95% of the students and met the additional indicator requirement.

Additional Indicator -- For both school and district reporting attendance is used at the elementary and middle levels, at the high school level graduation rate is used. (Note: District level reporting is determined by the highest grade level. K-8 uses attendance rate. K-12 uses graduation rate and K-8 attendance rate.) The requirement for MET is: Attendance Rate is equal to or greater than 93% Or shows any improvement from previous year. Graduation Rate is equal to or greater than 85% Or shows any improvement from previous year.

Additional Indicator Symbols:

Y For Attendance Rate indicates that the group met the requirement based on improvement.

MY For Graduation Rate indicates that the group met the requirement based on improvement.

MYY For Graduation Rate indicates that the group met the requirement based on improvement using the group of total, indicating that the cell size was too small for that group.

NMY For Graduation Rate indicates that the group was not met, indicating that the cell size was too small for that group and the group of TOTAL was used in the determination.

Definitions:

PROF: The percent of students who are Proficient or Advanced.

LND: Level Not Determined - The percent of students who did not receive a MAP score. A Student will be considered LND if the student was absent,

caught cheating or did not have a valid attempt on the test. The percent of students that were LND should be 5.0 percent or below.

GROWTH + PROF PCT: Is the percent of students who are Proficient or Advanced plus the percent of students who are on track using the growth calculation.

NOTE: For 2007 LND changed to include only those students who were absent all required sessions of the test.

Symbols:

* Indicates the subgroup meets the minimum cell size requirements. Minimum cell size requirements: 30 for all subgroups except IEP and LEP, which have a minimum cell size of 50 for 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007.

^ If there are fewer than 30 students in the school total, and State Proficiency Target was not met, the current year and two prior years are aggregated.

This only applies to the calculation for the school total, not the disaggregated groups.

@ The group Met the 95% participation using an average of current and prior year, or current year and prior two years.

AYP MET Symbols:

Y Annual Proficiency Target Met

CI Annual Proficiency Target Met with confidence interval

G Annual Proficiency Target Met using Growth

S Annual Proficiency Target Met using Safe Harbor provision

SC Annual Proficiency Target Met using the confidence interval for Safe Harbor

AYP NOT MET Symbols:

N* Annual Proficiency Target Met, but did not have a participation rate of at least 95%

NC Annual Proficiency Target Met with the confidence interval, but did not have a participation rate of at least 95%

NP Annual Proficiency Target Not Met

NN Annual Proficiency Target Not Met and participation rate was less than 95%
