Goal 1

• During the 2024-25 school year, Edgemont Elementary School will provide support to teachers to improve Tier 1 instruction and also provide Tier 2 interventions for reading to support students performing below grade level. We will hire aides to run our research-based intervention programs in reading. Using these resources, our goal is to increase end-of-year composite scores in reading in grades K-6 by at least 5%.

Goal 2

• During the 2024-25 school year, Edgemont Elementary School will provide support to teachers to improve Tier 1 instruction and also provide Tier 2 interventions for math to support students performing below grade level. We will hire aides to run our research-based intervention programs in math. Using these resources, our goal is to increase end-of-year composite scores in math in grades 3-6 by at least 3%.

Goal 3

• By implementing our 5-year STEM integration plan from our school STEM designation and focusing on teacher supports for teaching Science, our goal is to increase our Science scores by 3% next school year.

Goal 4

• To support our Multi-Language learners making progress and performing on grade level, we need an aide to help with ML interventions and support. With this additional support for our ML students, our goal is to have at least 75% of our ML students making proficient or better progress on the ELA RISE test in grades 3-6.

Goal 5

• In an effort to maintain the progress we have made in previous years in our French DLI students’ French proficiency, our goal is to continue providing French language Tier 2 interventions for our French DLI students. By providing Tier 2 support in the DLI target language, our goal is for each grade level to increase the students meeting the benchmarks in their grade level on the AAPPL test by 5%.
