According to the school improvement plan, what would be an effective way to combat
possible barriers for goal #1?
,Goal #1: To increase our overall reading proficiency by 5% as measured by county and
state assessments within the next reporting period.
Implementation:
Implement an at-home reading program to increase parental participation in the reading
practice.
Potential Barriers:
-Parents might not have the skills needed to implement the at-home reading program.
-Parents may not have time to implement the at-home reading program. - Answers -
Host a parent night where leadership provides the data showing how effective other at-
home reading programs have been and also provide the necessary education and
training so parents can be successful with their students at-home.
The most effective approach to combat barriers with parent involvement is to bring
families into the school to participate. Simply sending out a newsletter is not enough.
Principals must get parents to come to the school to engage in the education process
as a community.
Note: Remember, look for good words and phrases in answer choices. This could cut
the time that is needed to look at a chart (if there is one) when determining the correct
answer, and in this case that information on the chart did not need to be referred to.
A new leader is working with the school advisory committee on updating the school
improvement plan and realizes that their goal might be unachievable. Which of the
following is the best approach to adjust the goal in order to make it attainable?
Goal#2: To increase reading gain scores by 15 points on state assessments within the
next quarter.
Implementation: Implement interventions in the classroom to support EL students.
Potential Barriers:
-Teachers might not have adequate training on EL strategies in the classroom -
Answers -Solution: Reduce the percentage points from 15 to 5 and increase the
timeframe from the end of the quarter to the end of the year.
The goal seems unrealistic because it states the school will increase/gain scores by 15
points within the next quarter. This would be extremely difficult to achieve and sets the
stage for failure. By decreasing the gain score to a level that is achievable and
increasing the timeframe, the goal becomes realistic. This sets the team up for success.
