2020-2021 School Plan Summary

Funding: $68,577

Goal:

Based on the 2020 end of year (EOY) DIBELs composite score, students in
grades K-3 will increase their reading proficiency by 10% and will reflect more
than a year’s worth of growth based on the 2021 EOY DIBELs assessment. In
addition, students in grades 3-5 will increase Language Arts proficiency by 10%.

Plan Summary: 

We will use the funding to pay for a portion of our counselor’s
salary, an art paraprofessional, a portion of our music teacher’s salary, our HAL
paraprofessional, our take home library paraprofessional, paraprofessional
support in Kindergarten, and take-home library books and curriculum and
supplies for art and music. Our music teacher will collaborate with each team
to coordinate topics being taught. Our counselor will provide instruction for
students about coping, self-regulating, and life skills. Our HAL groups will be held
during WIN time, and students will be provided extension activities and
instruction.

Our School Community Council is primarily responsible for the creation of our School LAND Trust Plan. This plan is created annually by analyzing our school testing data to determine the greatest academic need. The money our school receives from the School LAND Trust fund is allocated according to our plan.

Our school is grateful for the School LAND Trust program and the opportunity we have as a school to allocate the funds to support our targeted and specific needs. The Council assists with school improvement, and make decisions on how to best spend the Trust LANDS funding. More information regarding the work of the Council and the current plan can be found by visiting the School LAND Trust Website: http://www.schoollandtrust.org/
