for Each of the Years Covered by the Plan

(8 VAC 20-131-310.G.1)

Goal Statement: Sanville Elementary School will maintain full state accreditation and federal AYP designation with emphasis on subgroups to ensure that all subgroups at Sanville will meet the AYP standards whether or not the sample is too small.

Objective #12: Ninety-six percent of the third and fifth grade students will pass the science SOL test given in the spring, 2011.

Objective #13: By the end of the 2010-2011 school year, 95% of all third and fifth grade students will perform proficiently in all reporting categories on the science SOL test.

Objective #14: By the end of the 2010-2011 school year, 85% of all second grade students will perform proficiently in the all of the reporting categories on Interactive Achievement.

Objective #15: Forty percent of the third and fifth grade students will perform pass advanced on the Science Standards of Learning test.

(8 VAC 20-131-310.G.1)

Goal Statement: Sanville Elementary School will maintain full state accreditation and federal AYP designation with emphasis on subgroups to ensure that all subgroups at Sanville will meet the AYP standards whether or not the sample is too small.

Objective #18: One hundred percent of the classroom teachers, special education teachers and ELL tutors will meet with all the parent(s) of their students at least one time each semester.

Objective #19: One hundred percent of the classroom teachers will meet with the parents of identified “at risk” students at least one time each semester, with at least one conference held in the second semester.

Objective #20: Ninety percent of the parents whose children have IEPs will participate in the development of the IEP by attending the meeting.

Objective #21: One hundred percent of the faculty will maintain a webpage which is updated weekly.

Specific measures of student achievement that will be taken throughout the school year(s)

and used to monitor academic improvement over time (8 VAC 20 – 131-310.G.2):
