Evaluation Of The School Program

Throughout history, educational neglect of rural schools and students only compounded the high unemployment and poverty rates of many rural communities. By having access to high-quality education programs you are able to promote rural economic development and help build back up those areas. However, juveniles, adults and those who are currently unemployed often times find it difficult due to the lack of access to post-secondary schooling or career training programs to find adequate employment. By giving access to appropriate transition services, academic remediation and accommodations to help achieve success on their individualized path it enables them to address their barriers to higher education and economic empowerment. This is why the need for The Steps to Success program is something our community needs because it will

During the school visit, many of the teachers expressed the high expectations they have not only for the students, but for themselves also. They used methods and resources, which engage students’ interest and accelerate their progress as well. Students are provided with interesting tasks and activities, which stimulate higher order thinking skills. The relationships are excellent and students respond to their teachers as well. As far as assessment, students of all abilities are addressed equable along with self-assessment and peer group assessment. The teachers are pleased with their strong curriculum, therefore; they are successful in motivating students and developing their independent learning and personal qualities. In addition, the quality of leadership and management is outstanding. The principal has distributed leadership responsibilities effectively throughout the staff; consequently, there is effective teamwork in within the school activities and staff turnover is

This critique is on the evaluation program of Freedom School Partners Children’s Defense Fund Freedom Schools. This evaluation report was composed in October of 2013 by Dr. D. Bruce Taylor, Dr. Sandraluz Lara-Cinisomo, and Dr. Crystal Glover members of The Center for Adolescent Literacies at UNC Charlotte, North Carolina. This is the fifth evaluation of The Freedom School Partners Children’s Defense Fund Freedom Schools. The main purpose of this evaluation is to analyze the outcome of this summer program on a student’s reading accomplishments while attending a Freedom School Partners in Charlotte. Ten of the nineteen Freedom Schools were chosen for evaluation.

In looking at student to teacher ratio, the professional staff’s classes range in size from 22 through 28 students with around eight classes per grade level. Furthermore, the building’s academic standardized assessment scores had increased. Thus, they improved their PA School Performance Profile score to 62.6 out of 100.

The Forrest County School District (FCSD) is dedicated to meeting the wide-ranging academic needs of all students and presenting opportunities for individuals to develop specialized talents and interests.

To ensure that my program evaluation is objective, credible and fair I would employ internal and external counselors or advisors as well as align my program evaluation with the standards and practices of the professional body of evaluators. These “advisors “may or may not include the program stakeholders, but would not negate the formal process of collaborating with key stakeholders. Rather, the purpose of my advisor team is to see and hear things I missed.

The Program Evaluation class at Delaware State University mandated that all students in the class of SCWR 651-60 (CRN 15732) conduct a Needs assessment of the practicum that they was attending for the semester.

This project was an observational program evaluation. The purpose of this project was to evaluate 30-day readmission, medication compliance and outcomes of patient who received traditional care (services provided prior to October 1, 2015) to that of patient who received care from Post Myocardial Infarction Transitional Care Program and Advanced Practice Provider Transitional Care Clinic (which started October 1, 2015). This project focused on evaluation of the following questions:

When the children leave at the end of the day, their parent’s receive a written record of their child’s day went. Meals/snacks received a score of seven because staff provide healthy snacks for the children, are aware of any allergies, and promote healthy habits, such as washing hands before and after meal and snack times. Nap received a score of seven because nap is routine in the day’s schedule. Children are safe while napping in the classroom and quiet child-appropriate music is play during the entire naptime. Children can bring a blanket from home to help them nap easier. Diapering/toileting received a score of seven because sanitary conditions are always met and there are child-sized toilets and sinks to make the process easier for children. Health practices received a score of four because when the children play in the sandbox on a daily basis, it is never covered when it is not being used, allowing possible hazardous objects to get into the sand, not to mention the fact that the sand will continue to get dirty. Safety practices received a score of seven because the staff members are always follow school safety rules and procedures and explain to the students why they have to follow these specific rules and procedures.

For this analysis I used the survey adapted by Patty, Maschoff, and Ransom. This survey helped me realize how my school is achieving in their instructional and literacy program. I talked to my principal at my school (Stetson Hills) and discussed the topic with her and helped get an idea of how the school was doing. I’m a physical education teacher and I’m not in tune as much as I should be with our literacy program so I’m hoping this class will help me learn more about how to help my school improve the literacy program and my own personal understanding.

For this assignment, I completed a survey to assess my school’s literacy program by using a survey that was adapted from by Patty, Maschoff, & Ransom (1996) to analyze the instructional program and the school’s infrastructure. To be able to answer my survey, I needed to go colleagues of mine in the English Department and to my administration to help with these questions. Being a math teacher, we hardly ever discuss the literacy and the students’ acquisition of it in our department meeting during staff development days. Since I am not truly current with literacy acquisition in education, I am hoping to understand more from this process so I can help all my students. I want them to be able to read texts related to math and find

The Paragould School of the 21st Century was the first site implementing the Zigler model in August 1992. Startup funds were initially provided by Paragould businesses to renovate an older elementary campus. The district has grown from the Elmwood campus of seven classrooms infants – four year olds to opening the Oakwood building housing 5 additional classrooms. S21C is an integral part of the Paragould School District. By August, 2013, seven preschool classrooms will join kindergarten and first grade students at the new Paragould Primary building

The teachers in our county use Raz-Kids for students in K-12. I like this program because the e-text reader can model fluent reading for the student and it can also highlight the words while students follow along. This feature can draw attention to sight words and help build word recognition. When students listen to a book they can focus on the meaning of what is on the page instead of struggling to decode the words.
