As of the -213 school year, our student population has increased by approximately 6 students when compared to the total number of students in the 211- academic year. This increase has occurred without any addition to our overall staffing level. Class sizes at the Greene average 29 students per regular education classroom. 84.1% of our students are from low income households. 74.7% of our students qualify for free lunch and 9.4% of them qualify for reduced lunch. 26.7% of our students have been diagnosed with a disability that impacts their ability to learn and are currently receiving Grand Total

2 special education services. This represents a higher percentage of students diagnosed with a learning disability and receiving special education services than the district or the state. The Greene School s administrative staff is currently comprised of a principal, a vice-principal, a Dean of Student Support and Operations, a Math Department Head, a full time School Adjustment Counselor and a part time one. In addition, the employs a full-time nurse and a half time School Psychologist. The school has 49.5 teachers spread across regular education; self-contained special education; inclusion special education; English Language Learners (ELL); art; music; and physical education. Also included in this group of 49.5 teachers are two Title One interventionists, a dual-certified integrated special needs teacher, one literacy coach, and a technology/library teacher. Consistent with the characteristics of high poverty schools identified in the research literature, our school includes students whose skills are significantly below grade level, especially in the upper grades. The research-based initiatives that we have implemented during the 211- school year to build our teachers capacity to deliver effective instruction in the classroom, to meet the instructional needs of our students and to compensate for our students lack of instructional support at home are yielding positive results. Within one year of the implementation of these initiatives, the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (MA DESE) has moved the accountability status of the William S. Greene Elementary from Level 3 as of June 211 (Chronically Underperforming/Corrective Action) to Level 1 as of June (Meeting gap narrowing goals). The continuation of the successful transformation of the Greene Elementary school into a high performing school is contingent upon the allocation of adequate resources to support the professional development of teachers and the instruction that occurs in the classroom. Accordingly, the budget proposes (in order of priority) to: 1. Add an ELA Coach to support teachers and the instructional quality at the lower grades (K-2). 2. Allocate $5,. in FY14 to continue the after school reading and math academies next year for grades 1 through Add an Interventionist to provide Tiers 2 and 3 instructional interventions to students in grades 1 and 2 to prepare to transition them from learning to read to reading to learn. This intervention strategy at the lower grades will also mitigate the number of students who would normally be referred for special education services. 4. Add a half time ELL teacher to compensate for the significant increase in the number of ELL students who have matriculated at the Greene elementary school for the -213 academic year. The number of ELL students now attending the Greene elementary school has increased from approximately 26 in the 211- year to approximately 5 this academic year. Currently, the Greene is out of compliance with the regulatory mandate to provide specified number of weekly hours of ELL instructional services to our ELL students. 5. Convert the half time School adjustment counselor to a full time one, bringing the number of school adjustment counselors at the Greene to support our 832 students from 1 ½ to 2 full time SACs. 6. Convert one of the Office Para professional positions to a Clerk Position for year around administrative support. 7. Add one Paraprofessional position to provide direct Tier 2 and 3 instructional support to students in grades 3 and 4 (i.e., Project Read Phonics, Project Read Linguistics, Math Add+Vantage) Curriculum and Instruction Goals Grades K 5 Curriculum and Instruction Goals Goal# Goal Description Measures Goal 1 Improve the quality and consistency of curriculum 1. Students in grades 4 and 5 will achieve a median SGP greater Page 2 of 3

3 Goal 2 through alignment to the Common Core Standards and the establishment of cycle of continuous curriculum review and refinement. Provide Support for rigorous planning and delivery of consistent instructional expectations than or equal to 51% in both ELA and Math by 213 for students in grades 4 and MCAS scores will meet the 213 CPI growth targets for Math, Literacy, and Science for all grade levels. 3. Increase the Oral Reading Fluency of students in grades 1, 2 and 3 to meet the following Word Per Minute (WPM) targets outlined in the National Reading Panel Report by winter 213: o Grade One: 33 WPM o Grade Two: 89 WPM o Grade Three: 17 WPM 1. MCAS results will show a 1% decline in students scoring in the Warning/Failing Category for Math, ELA and Science 2. MCAS results will show a 1% increase in students scoring Advanced in Math and ELA and a 5% increase in students scoring Advanced in Science. 3. There will be an increase of 3% in the number of students meeting Structure GLT (grade level targets) in grades K, 1 and 2. New Position Requests in order of Priority 1. ELA Coach to support teachers and the instructional quality at the lower grades (K-2). 2. Interventionist to provide Tiers 2 and 3 instructional interventions to students in grades 1 and One ELL Teacher. 4. Behavior Therapist. Page 3 of 3

In general, a district is classified into the level of its lowest performing school, unless the district was independently classified into Level 4 or 5 as a result of action by the Board of Elementary and Secondary Education. School Percentiles: A school percentile between 1 and 99 is reported for schools with at least four years of data. This number is an indication of the school's overall performance relative to other schools that serve the same or similar grades. Progress and Performance Index (PPI): The PPI combines information about narrowing proficiency gaps, growth, and graduation and dropout rates over multiple years into a single number. All districts, schools, and student subgroups receive an annual PPI based on improvement over a two-year period and a cumulative PPI (shown above) between and 1 based on four years of data. For a group to be considered to be making progress toward narrowing proficiency gaps, its cumulative PPI must be 75 or higher. Resources Interpretive Materials Glossary of Accountability Terms
