Use of state and local assessments to modify instruction and improve student achievement: 11/14/11 23 To modify instruction and improve student achievement, the Monterey High School staff utilizes Professional Learning Communities (PLC) to answer these four questions: What do we want students to learn? How will we know that they have learned it? What will we do when they have not learned it? What will we do when they have learned more than expected? n these PLC's teachers review and analyze authentic student work products and multiple measures of assessment data at all grade levels across all content areas. Student performance data is used to determine the course placement of students, differentiate instructional practices within those course, monitor achievement of the standards taught, and to target appropriate students for academic intervention. Teachers utilize data from the CST, District Benchmark Assessments in English Language Arts and Mathematics, CAHSEE, and curriculum embedded assessments. The teachers, counselors, and administration also analyze student progress reports and report cards to recommend students for appropriate academic intervention. In addition, results from the CELDT are utilized to determine the level of proficiency acquired in English for students who have been identified as English Language Learners (ELL). The result from each student's CELDT is reviewed by the MHS English Language Review Team. This team makes placement recommendations and monitors student progress as they move through the EL pathways. 2. Use of data to monitor student progress on curriculum-embedded assessments and modify instruction: Teachers access student benchmark performance data, teacher created common formative assessment data (curriculum-embedded), and results from CST's, CAHSEE, and CELDT using Illuminate, a student management system. Monterey High School administers district quarterly benchmarks in: English, Grades 9 - 11 Writing, Grades 9 - 11 Transitional and Intensive English (Grades 9-12) Algebra 1 and 2 Geometry Math Analysis Chemistry World History U.S. History Benchmark assessment data is used to guide and modify instructional practices in an ongoing manner. CST data is used to monitor program effectiveness in specified department and subject matter. CAHSEE data is used to monitor tenth grade student performance in ELA and Mathematics. Staffing and Professional Development 11/14/11 24 3. Status of meeting requirements for highly qualified staff: Currently, Monterey High school has sixty-five (65) certificated employees one (1) Principal, two (2) Assistant Principals, three (3) counselors, one (1) JNROTC teacher, one (1) opportunity/intervention teacher, three (3) RSP teachers, two (2) SDC teachers, two (2) part-time academic coaches, three (3) Career Technical Education teachers, forty-seven (47) subject area teachers. All credentialed staff members are fully credentialed, either with a preliminary or clear credential; this includes half-time and partial time teachers. The Principal and one Assistant Principal hold their Clear Administrative Service Credentials and the other Assistant Principal holds a Preliminary Administrative Service Credential. 4. PrincipaIs' AssembIy BiII (AB) 75 training on State Board of Education adopted instructional materials: The Principal and one Assistant Principal of Monterey High School have completed (AB) 430 training. The other Assistant Principal is currently enrolled in (AB) 430 training. 5. Sufficiency of credentialed teachers and teacher professional development (e.g. access to AB 466 training on SBE-adopted instructional materials): As noted, the teachers at Monterey High School are fully credentialed. 6. Alignment of staff development to content standards, assessed student performance, and professional needs: All Monterey High School staff participated in a district-wide collaboration focusing on the mastery of content area focus standards. These groups used the California Content Standards, student work, a variety of assessments, and the adopted curriculum to begin work towards defining what mastery of focus standards looks like in each classroom. Next steps were identified and the work is ongoing. On a site-based level, the primary focus of MHS staff development and collaboration has been on creating PLC's where the focus is on student learning, instructional practices, assessment, and the WASC process. Monterey High's focus on learning throughout the year will concentrate on the WASC recommendations for student performance and the four essential questions (see question 1). Staff will continue to refine and deepen their understanding of unpacking standards, identifying focus standards, defining student mastery, reviewing data, developing strategies to reteach concepts, creating common formative assessments and more. The MHS administrative team will also continue conducting campus-wide learning walks to monitor the implementation of MPUSD's five essential practices: Clearly Stated Learning Goal (Objective) Gradual Release of Responsibility (Instruction)(I do, We do, You do together, You do along) Rigorous Standards-Based Instruction Checking for Understanding Student Engagement 11/14/11 25 7. Ongoing instructional assistance and support for teachers (e.g., use of content experts and instructional coaches): Monterey High School provides the following services and human resources to support the success of students in achieving their expected grade-level standards.

Four (4) "Key Program nstructional Assistants 8. Teacher collaboration by grade level and department (9-12): Monterey High School has a weekly collaboration time that is scheduled by grade level and/or department. This time is focused around: WASC, school-climate, MHS Mission Statement, ESLR's, MPUSD's five essential practices (see question 6), Illuminate (MPUSD Data System), and the implementation of the PLC process based on the essential questions (see question 1). While meeting in PLC's, teachers work collaboratively to design standards-based instruction that focuses on the specific learning needs of individuals and groups of students in their respective classes. Together, they create common formative assessments, review students work samples, adjust and monitor pacing and instruction as needed, and use data to design and drive instruction. Teaching and Learning 9. Alignment of curriculum, instruction, and materials to content and performance standards: The Monterey High School staff aligns all curriculum and instruction with the California State Standards and Curriculum Frameworks. All 9-12 curriculum texts and support instructional materials are district adopted, and from the State list of adopted materials. Weekly collaboration days are used to ensure alignment within courses. A pacing guide has been developed and is closely monitored to ensure equal access to the full curriculum for all students in every classroom. 10. Adherence to recommended instructional minutes for reading/language arts and mathematics (k-8): 11. Lesson pacing schedule and master schedule flexibility for sufficient numbers of intervention courses: 11/14/11 26 District-wide pacing guides are utilized by all classroom teachers to ensure the successful completion of required instruction and assessment in the areas of core content. The students' performance is continually assessed through adopted curriculum-embedded assessments, district benchmark assessments, and classroom assessments in language arts and mathematics. Students identified through these assessments as requiring additional support in language arts receive one-on-one tutoring, pull-out support, push-in support, or participate in intervention classes such as Gateways, transitional ELA, and math intervention. 12. Availability of standards-based instructional materials appropriate to all student groups: Monterey High School implements standards-based instructional materials in all core curriculum areas. Each course offered at MHS has a board approved course description that includes the recommended instructional materials. 13. Use of SBE-adopted and standards-aligned instructional materials, including intervention materials, and for high school students, access to standards-aligned core courses: All students are provided with access to all academic core-curriculum areas with respect to instruction and appropriate instructional materials. Targeted intervention and credit recovery classes are available for students who are off track for graduation or need additional intervention. Monterey High follows the ELL pathways program for second language learners. Newly adopted HOLT materials are being used in all grade level English classes. Opportunity and Equal Educational Access 14. Services provided by the regular program that enable underperforming students to meet standards: Within the regular classroom, support comes in the form of modified projects and differentiated work using state adopted materials. Teachers, on a volunteer basis, tutor students who are in need. EL students receive instruction through dedicated transitional classes and ELD instruction. Special Education students receive specialized instruction in the RSP program, the Special Day Class, and the "Key Program for ED students. The Monterey High School staff has worked collaboratively to thoroughly identify all students who are functioning at below academic levels. Through a process of parent conferences, ILP (Individualized Learning Plans) development and mandated interventions, using the results of the Content Standards Tests (CST), District Language Arts and Mathematics benchmark assessments, CELDT testing, and teacher initiated grades and 11/14/11 27 assessments, the faculty has identified at-risk students. The SST (Student Success Teams) will determine if further interventions are warranted. 15. Research-based educational practices to raise student achievement at this school: The Monterey High School staff continues to focus on student learning. They are defining the work that the Administrators, teachers, and support staff need to accomplish collectively in closing the achievement gap and move students to the next level of academic performance. The school's action plans are developed to focus on three (3) goals of, moving all students up one level in English and in Math performance and establishing a culture of high academic achievement and a college going culture. School Level: The staff has worked to create a culture of high expectations and a college going culture. Other school-level practices that staff have taken to help raise student achievement include the creation of more opportunities for parent and community involvement (i.e. PTSA, SSC, ELAC, DELAC, volunteer assistance, parent education, school bulletins, PTSA newsletters, the school website, monthly parent nights, The Parent Institute, PBIS, AVID, and Principal's Newsletter), a safe and orderly environmentwith a focus on good citizenship, high expectations with an important emphasis on collegiality and professionalism to promote a positive school learning climate and a college going culture. Teacher Level: The teachers and support staff collaborate weekly in PLC's to improve student learning. The emphasis is on how to better monitor student progress, balance individual work with group work, reinforce student efforts, and assess whether learning objectives are achieved and the level of mastery in which standards are being met. Teachers and support staff also help students assimilate what they've learned, review, practice, and apply the content of learned information. The staff is well aware, that poor classroom management can inhibit student achievement, therefore, appropriate consequences are taken for violations of rules. Conversely, good behavior is now recognized and given positive reinforcement. The start of the PBIS Team has been very successful with rewarding positive choices. Citizenship and conflict resolution are active methods to solving conflicts at the high school level where diversity should be celebrated. An optimal relationship between teacher and students is maintained through mutual respect, cooperation, and positive interactions. The last two (2) years, the block master schedule has been organized to allow most teachers in departments to have one common prep period for collaborative time with the department. Student Level: The teachers and support staff continue to consider ways in which they can positively support students' in the home environment and elevate the degree of student motivation in academic achievement. With respect to the students' home environment, which is key to our 11/14/11 28 students' school success, staff utilizes interventions, SST meetings, and school events such as "Back-to-School Night and "Open House. The Secondary Conferences are designed to provide information about student progress, individual learning plans, and strategies necessary for school success. Actions such as these are designed to help parents enhance their communication with the school and their children, as well as reinforce school-wide expectations as they relate to academic and behavioral goals. The parent portal is in place, allowing parent to view student academic progress, check attendance, and communicate with staff members via an on-line web-based system. Involvement 16. Resources available from family, school, district, and community to assist under-achieving students: Monterey High School has many programs and opportunities for struggling students and families to receive support. Resources available include: Counseling Services: Monterey High School currently is staffed with three (3) full time academic counselor and one half time (1/2) family counselor. One (1) part-time counselor is funded through the GEAR UP program. New to the department this year is a half time (1/2) College and Career Counselor. One (1) full time school registrar is assigned to the Counseling Department. The services provided include: individualized counseling, career counseling, high school career counseling, diversion counseling, student enrollment, master schedule support, student records, and other support duties. SDC/RSP Teachers, LSH, ASD Teacher/Behavior Technician/Psychological Services: The District supports certificated personnel in each of these areas. Two (2) SDC teacher and three (3) RSP teachers provide instruction for students with a variety of identified learning disabilities and support for alternative pathways to graduation. Listen/Hearing/Speech (LSH) services are provided. Monterey High School provides two moderate to severe classrooms (KEY). This program consists of two (1) classroom teacher, two (2) Instructional Assistant and two (2) Behavior Technicians. Psychological services are provided three to four (3/4) days each week. Adaptive Physical Education occurs on campus one time a week. Student Review Teams: The SST (Student Study Team) team is composed of an SST lead Counselor, an administrator, and assigned classroom teachers. This particular team reviews the data of students who are referred by either the classroom teachers or have been identified with having academic or behavioral difficulties. The team creates an Intervention Learning Plan based on all available data with input from 11/14/11 29 teachers, the student, and the parent. If the intervention recommendations are not followed or have been ineffective, then a follow- up conference is scheduled with teachers, student, and the parents to review the interventions and discuss next steps. In some cases, students are referred for additional special services testing or placed on a 504 plan. The LRT (Language Review Team) team: The LRT team is composed of the counselor, an administrator, all classroom teachers that teach sections of ELD. Periodically a district support provider attends the meetings. The team monitors student language performance, monitors student scheduling, reviews CELDT and benchmark assessments and makes recommendations for targeted interventions and communicates with parents. The team insures that the ELL assurances are followed and maintained throughout the school year.
Attendance and Discipline Department: Monterey High School maintains a safe and secure environment due to the responsibilities accomplished by this department. Directed by the Assistant Principal, all student and parent issues dealing with attendance and discipline are routed through the office. The support staff consists of one (1) Attendance Clerk, one (1) Campus Liaison and one (2) Campus Monitors and one part-time Monitor. The Liaison monitors student truancy and attendance and is able to contact staff on vital information when a student is not meeting the expected behavior and attendance goals set by Monterey Peninsula Unified School District. A critical component to this department is the formation of the PBIS team, whose philosophy is to recognize positive behaviors rather than focus on the negative. This has been a great success on campus this year in setting behavior guidelines and student behavior goals for all grade levels. 17. Involvement of parents, community representatives, classroom teachers, other school personnel, and students (in secondary schools)-- in the planning, implementation, and evaluation of consolidated application programs: Parents and the community are very supportive of the educational programs at Monterey High School. The School Site Council is a representative group comprised of teachers and parents elected for a two-year term by staff and the parent community and students. SSC members monitor the effectiveness of the Single School Plan, and make on-going program improvement recommendations. SSC members are also involved in the decision-making process of allocating categorical funding (LEP & SCE) available to the school from the State and Federal government. The English Language Advisory Committee (ELAC) is an elected Advisory Committee of parents of MHS English Language Learners (ELL) whose responsibility is to address the needs of all English language learners and their families. The Parent-Teacher Student Association (PTSA) is an organization of parents and teachers whose function is to promote the welfare of students at school and in their home and community. The PTSA, actively sponsors fund-raising events, provides support to our 11/14/11 30 students and staff in the form of classroom instructional materials and supplies, facilities and campus improvements, consultants, and academic study trips. The PTSA is currently a major stakeholder in providing funds for the school. The Monterey High School Booster Clubs are nonprofit 501(c) organizations designed to support extracurricular activities on campus and are not restricted to funding athletics sports teams. Funding 18. Services provided by categorical funds that enable underperforming students to meet standards: The Monterey High School Site Council has allocated much of the categorical funding for this school year. Due to the funding and budgetary issues faced by our District and our school, the Council has prioritized the limited amount of funding available for student support. Proposed expenditures have been included with this plan. 19. Fiscal support Monterey High School received the following discretionary and categorical amounts to implement this year's program and services. All expenditures are tied to the School Plan for Student Achievement.
