School Profile Pasteur Middle is an open and inclusive school. We regularly welcome parents and community members to our campus to showcase our excellent academic and social programs. Our experienced staff, most of whom have worked together for years, provide a cohesive, student-centered program for all. Our API has increased steadily from 783 in 2007 to 852 in 2012 and most recently has settled at 831 in 2013. We offer a broad spectrum of academic programs, supports, and social opportunities for 675 students in our suburban middle school. Academic offerings include: Honors program, grade level instruction, some modified options for general education students and a cohesive Special Education program. All of our teachers are available for help with class work every Wednesday from 2:30 3:30. Many teachers help students at lunch and before and after school. And our elective offerings allow students experiences that include the only remaining Shop program at the middle school level in our district. We offer opportunities for students to engage in social activities such as Skate Nights, Movie Nights, and dances throughout the school year. Pasteur students and their families support the Orangevale Food Bank through our annual canned food drive. We also encourage community involvement by requiring community service for all students. Parents are encouraged to attend quarterly workshops/events as well supporting classrooms and attending field trips. Pasteur student demographics are as follows: White: 78% Hispanic: 12% African American: 4% American Indian 2% Asian 2%, Filipino 1% Pacific Islander: 1% * Two percent of our students are English learners who are supported in an extra English class taught by a certified English Language Development specialist. * The percentage of students who are designated as Low Socio-Economic has grown from about 31% to 41% in the last four years. * Twelve percent of our students receive special education services. Pasteur's Strategic Plan focuses our work in two areas: 1. We will ensure that all staff are implementing effective instructional strategies including: Integration of technology, collaboration within & across disciplines, and meaningful student dialogue, while utilizing assessment data to enhance critical thinking and 21st century skills. 2. We will design and implement challenging educational plans in collaboration with students and families. We believe that focus on this work will ensure our students are ready for the rigors of high school and will support their career or college plans. The Single Plan for Student Achievement for Louis Pasteur Fundamental Middle School 3 of 24 1/10/2014 Comprehensive Needs Assessment Components Introduction Pasteur staff, students, families, and community members completed the Site Strategic Planning in 2012. The process allowed the 25 planning team members to consider multiple perspectives in regards to instruction, parent engagement and school culture. The team also considered multiple sources of data to craft a plan that would engage and support students, their families and the larger community. Data Analysis Describe the use of data both during the 2 day planning meeting and action planning. Refer to research done during action planning. The following data was discussed and analyzed during the Strategic Planning process: * Attendance and truancy rates * Behavior: suspension and expulsion data * Communication with families and community * English Learners * Enrollment trends * Facility safety & cleanliness * Intervention programs * Professional development * Socioeconomic data * Student participation in extra-curricular activities * Student achievement data: * STAR, API & AYP, Grades, and class assignments The team drew the following conclusions after the data review: All of Pasteur's significant subgroups have met the state's performance goals for the last three years except for one year. In 2012, our low socio-economic students did not meet the growth target set by the state. The team decided to continue a focus on insuring that all students receive effective instruction that includes: Common Core State Standards focused units, including effective assessments, the integration of technology, meaningful student dialogue and collaboration among staff within and across disciplines. Parental Involvement Resources available from family, school, district, and community to assist under-achieving students (ESEA) Involvement of parents, community representatives, classroom teachers, other school personnel, and students in secondary schools, in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of ConApp programs (5 California Code of Regulations 3932) Parents are an integral part of Pasteur's community. They support the work of our PTSO with their annual contributions. Our parents also attend the Superintendent’s monthly meetings and serve on the School Site Council. The following activities are very successful because of our parent commitment: * 6th grade four day field trip Westminister Woods • Skate and Movie Nights • Classroom field trips • School beautification • Community service opportunities • PTO sponsored activities and resources • Student Recognition Programs The Single Plan for Student Achievement for Louis Pasteur Fundamental Middle School 4 of 24 1/10/2014 We also have a close relationship with Orangevale Rotary which has provided numerous grants for our teachers each year. Broad, representative involvement on the Site Strategic Planning Teams and our PTSO members proved to be critical to the development of our improvement plans. While we do not have student populations which give us access to ConnApp funds, we do have plans which address the needs of all students. Description of Barriers and Related School Goals Include the strongest themes from critical issues or Gap to Goal Review of Data The critical issues identified through our planning process include the following: 1. One of Pasteur's two significant subgroups, Low Socio-Economic students, continues to perform about 10% lower on standardized tests than the whole school in general. 2. Although not considered significant subgroups, 100 students (African American, Hispanic, English Learners and students with disabilities) have made minimal gains, and in some cases losses, on standardized tests in the past three years. 3. Pasteur has opportunity to increase our parental and community involvement.

Despite academic growth in almost all areas over the last three years, we are not on pace to achieve the State's goal that 90% of all students will score in the Proficient or Advanced range by 2016 - 2017. 2. Despite a decrease in suspension rates for all groups over the last three years, African American and Special Education students are suspended at greater rates than other students. 3. The survey data shows that only eight parents responded to the survey (which could skew the results) while 60% (397) of students and 95% (18) of teachers responded. The greatest discrepancy in responses among teachers, students and parents were focused on the setting of academic goals for/with students and a perceived lack of opportunities for parents to be involved in the school and classrooms. The Single Plan for Student Achievement for Louis Pasteur Fundamental Middle School 11 of 24 1/10/2014 Planned Improvements in Student Performance Planned Improvements: Goal/Tactic #1 The School Site Strategic Planning Team and Site Council has analyzed the academic performance of all student groups and has considered the effectiveness of key elements of the instructional program for students failing to meet academic performance index (API) and adequate yearly progress growth (AYP) targets. As a result, it has adopted the following tactics, results statements, related actions, and expenditures to raise the academic performance of students not yet meeting state standards: Focus: Instructional Strategies District Strategy: Strategy 1: We will ensure all staff are implementing effective instructional strategies integrating technology and utilizing assessment data to actively engage each student to increase achievement on state standards 21st century skills and personal educational plans. -------Tactic #1: Implement Common Core Standards, in a phase in model, to improve students' critical thinking and 21st Century skills in order to help them be successful in high school, college and beyond.-------Data Used to Form this Tactic: Department Meeting agendas and notes, Lesson plans, assessment data from CCSS aligned classroom tasks, student feedback-------Findings from the Analysis of this Data: Data included in this Plan shows that our students, as a whole, are below the State's goal of 90% proficiency. Our classroom assessments show that our students are making progress since we adopted a school-wide focus on Critical Reading and Writing. We began with a core group of teachers last year and have expanded the instruction to all classrooms this year. We have found that adopting common language in all classrooms has helped improve student's ability to think and write in the format required by Common Core Standards. When classroom assessments and MAP scores show that students are struggling with the content or process, classroom teachers confer with one another and the students to provide modifications and supports. Particular attention will be paid to scores of Low SES students, African American, Hispanic, English Learners and students in Special Education. -------Related Objective and how it will be Measured: Institute school-wide protocol that supports the use of MAP data with students and families in order to support students in the transition to CCSS standards and assessments. Will be measured by classroom assessments, parent meeting agendas, classroom discussions.-------- The Single Plan for Student Achievement for Louis Pasteur Fundamental Middle School 12 of 24 1/10/2014 Actions to be Taken to Reach This Tactic (Results Statement) 1.1 Professional Development: Professional development time will be structured so that all staff can continue to construct CCSS aligned units, lessons and assessments. Timeline 2013 - 2014 Person(s) Responsible Administrators, leadership Team, Department Chairs and Teachers Leadership Team has designated numerous Thursday collaboration hours for teachers to pursue instructional strategies (including student talk) which will increase student learning and performance. Leadership Team and Dept. Chairs will create a plan and protocol outlining the efficient way to share the trimester academic data from MAP testing with staff, students and their families and how we can use the results as a guide for classroom instruction. The Single Plan for Student Achievement for Louis Pasteur Fundamental Middle School Proposed Expenditure(s) Description Type Funding Source Amount All departments commit None Specified time during weekly department meetings and staff meetings to share data regarding next steps for instruction which will include: the need to provide more support and/or instruction to assure all students understand and have an opportunity for practice and reflection as we transition to Common Core. Considerable time will be spent administering these assessments. The results are much more targeted and timely than the STAR data. Time is always an issue so we will design a plan that will allow students to review data with their teachers and parents in order to identify areas for growth. 13 of 24 1/10/2014 Planned Improvements in Student Performance Planned Improvements: Goal/Tactic #2 The School Site Strategic Planning Team and Site Council has analyzed the academic performance of all student groups and has considered the effectiveness of key elements of the instructional program for students failing to meet academic performance index (API) and adequate yearly progress growth (AYP) targets.
