Csi Class Attendance Business Plan

After analyzing attendance data, as well as speaking with CSI teachers regarding these concerns, it is clear that the CSI schedule needs to be changed so that student attendance rates improve. There are individual students whose overall school attendance is satisfactory, but who struggle to attend classes that take place before school for a variety of reasons (most often related to transportation/parent work schedules).

Many schools are now organizing school day schedules to maximize instructional time and minimize non-instructional time, such as recess (Pellegrini & Bohn, 2005). Schools made this shift in response to increased state testing and the associated pressures of funding. Some also believe that the shift to more instructional time and less non-instructional time was worsened with the adoption of Common Core standards in elementary schools. However, this may not be the best move for schools or for long-term student success.

At 1:10 pm their classes start, and each student sits at their desk either thoroughly bored or thoroughly interested in what’s being taught, but their all watching the clock waiting for school to end at 2:40 pm.

School should start at 10:30AM because this gives students an opportunity to get more sleep. “Research suggests that adolescents require about 8.5 to 9.5 hours of sleep, but only 14% achieve this goal, and approximately 70%of adolescents obtain less that 8 hours of sleep on a typical weeknight,” according to Julie Boergers, Ph.D. (Boergers, 2015). With early school start times, students usually don’t get enough sleep. Also, later school start times can help improve a student's health and ability to function (Boergers, 2015). If school is started at 10:30AM and ends at 6:30PM it gives students an opportunity to get the sleep they need. Later school start times can improve a student’s ability to learn, but so can block scheduling. With block scheduling, longer and more efficient lessons can be taught everyday, and there will not be as many students in each class, so the teacher can help each student individually (2002-2015). Although block scheduling may help a student, it can also be a disadvantage. All lessons taught in an average semester would have to be taught in one quarter (2002-2015). Since block scheduling would reduce amount of students in each class, there should be an average of 16 students. Small classes help improve a student's academic achievement and their behavior. Also, they give teachers the opportunity to teach a longer amount of time. Class-Size Reduction is trying to reduce classes sizes from an average of 25 down

Studies show students that go to school before 8:30 a.m. are not learning to their maximum capabilities. However, students attending schools that have delayed their start times are showing an increase in academic performance and standardized test scores in English, Math, Science and Social Studies. Many studies show that even the lowest scoring students are showing tremendous improvement after-school start times were delayed. Students are also more willing to learn if school starts later because they get more sleep the night before. Waking up to go to school later in the morning is making it possible for students to be more focused during the day and work to their full potential. Also, tardiness and absenteeism has decreased in school with delayed start

n students’ scores on the SGLSST be improved? How should the curriculum and instructional process relate to preparation for the SGLSST? How should the results of the SGLSST be used in instructional planning? How do these suggestions impact students with special needs?

Have you ever thought about schools pushing back school start times? “1 in 5 middle/high schools in the U.S. began the school day at 8:30 AM” (Prevention’s Morbidity & Mortality Weekly Report). Later start times are critical to student's health and safety, in addition to academic success.

In our district, 17% of students are diagnosed with a disability. The State is looking to see this number be around 12%. We identify a very high number of students as being disabled, and it has contributed to significant scheduling challenges in the CSI department due to the high student population needing support services.

Standard based educational services for our societies students has transformed through the years. The establishment of the National Governor’s Association set of common core standards (CCS) has gained widespread attention according to Allman and Lewis (556). Within this shift, general education teachers and teachers of students with disabilities are being held more accountable for their student’s growth and knowledge. These standards have been adopted and implemented throughout our nation in order for our youth to be better prepared for higher learning once they

At completion of the designated time frame students whose performance remains inadequate move to Tier 2. Tier 2: Targeted Interventions – intensifies instruction to match the needs of students who had not met the grade level benchmark of Tier 1. At completion of this Tier, students who still present difficulty in improvement are now moved to Tier 3.

As the education of Americans continues to fail in comparison to other countries, it is imperative that we don’t further weaken our school day by making school start later. This is important to take into consideration when deciding school start times, as well as many other facts. District officials nationwide have been discussing or even implementing a later start time in their schools. However, this will just cause more problems and hurt the students and everybody else concerned more than help them. Children need to learn how to manage their time and get the amount of sleep they need. We cannot keep enabling by starting school later.

When children are identified with incapacities, they can register in a special teaching program. Inside a month of analysis, educators to need make an Individual Education Program (IEP) to help children identified by disabilities. As a consequence of the assessment, Bryanna did not qualify for special education facilities with an SLD/ LD description as school staffs had expected she would. Though she did not reply to Tier 2 intrusions, she still wanted to show a inconsistency to be fit with an SLD title.

You run a great school here at Mona Shores, always welcoming the students to start their day. However, having school start at 7:40 each day brings the average grade of the students lower. Having school start at 7:40 makes the student grumpy, and moody. Having school start at 7:40 is exhausting on the student. (claim) Mona Shores High School should consider moving school starting times an hour later, because a student’s brain doesn’t fully turn on until approximately 10 am.

If these students were placed in a regular classroom, they were often functionally excluded, when no support was provided for the child or the teacher. In addition, many students were misclassified following inaccurate assessment, placement or tracking. These past practices have been deemed in violation of a student’s constitutional rights. As a result, IDEA now requires that the educational program that is developed by the IEP team provide the child with opportunities in the least restrictive environment (LRE). LRE is the most normal setting that is possible for the student. The team should take several things into consideration when making this determination. First, they must compare the benefits in the regular class and the benefits in the special class. The U.S. Court of Appeals determined that the appropriateness of placement in the regular classroom is not dependent on the student’s ability to learn the same things the other students learn in the regular classroom. The benefit of social interaction should also be taken into account. Second, consideration should be given to the potentially beneficial or harmful effects that placement in the regular classroom may have on the students involved. Finally, cost should be considered when determining the appropriateness of student placement.

Sub Goal: Observe 4th & 5th grade CSI instruction needs as per local, state, and national code requirements.
