Comprehensive Needs Assessment
Socorro High School has been in existence since the fall of 1965. The school expanded by one grade level every year until the eighth grade class of 65 became seniors four years later. Socorro High School has since been the flagship school of the district and is now one of four large high schools in the Socorro District. Socorro is also considered the PRIDE of the Socorro Valley and is the only SISD high school situated in the valley community of Socorro, Texas.

Presently, Socorro High School is home to approximately 2,846 high school students in grades 9th through 12th. Socorro High School faculty numbers at 189 and the support staff equals to 40. Socorro High School Administration consists of the Principal, five Assistant Principals, 2 Deans of Instruction, a Curriculum Coach, and an Athletic Coordinator. The number of students in each grade level projected for the month of August are: 708 Freshmen; 866 Sophomores; 594 Juniors; and 676 Seniors. Socorro High School student demographics consist of the following: 2770 Hispanic; 40 White; 26 American Indian; 6 African-American and 4 Asian students. The Special Program population demographics are as follows: 2489 Economically Disadvantaged; 1932 At-Risk; 2846 Title 1; 1700 CTE; 229 SPED, 158 GT, 451 LEP, 81 Immigrant, 17 Migrant, and 379 ESL.

Socorro High School houses a total of eight career path academies. These academies consist of faculty members and support staff that instructs students in the career path of their choice. Each academy includes an administrator, a counselor, and a faculty staff with representation from both core area and enrichment subjects. The academies that serve the needs of students at Socorro High School are: ABC - Academy of Business Careers; ACE - Academy of Careers in Education; COSMOS -Curriculum Opportunities for Science and Math Oriented Students; HPA - Health Professions Academy; Discover- Technology Career Path; EXCEL- AVID / Liberal Arts; HEROES – Human and Protective Services Career Path; and STYLE- Socorro’s Talented Youth Learning Environment. Socorro High School also offers the ESL Block for students that are making a language transition. Each academy meets every other Tuesday and as needed to discuss instructional methods to enhance instruction, as well as to collaborate with one another in regard to addressing intervention strategies for the at risk students.

The Socorro High School Improvement Team (SIT) meets once every month. It consists of department heads, academy leaders, community members, parents, district level personnel, administration, student leadership and other campus staff members. The Campus Improvement Plan will be presented to the SIT Committee and the SISD Board of Trustees. Information to be considered include but are not limited to: the state mandated exams, the STAR Chart survey, parent and teacher surveys, failure rates , SISD content benchmarks, and other indicators related to the AEIS report.

An examination of federal, state and district goals for education was also conducted to determine the progress of our campus needs toward achieving a TEA Recognized status and meeting federal AYP expectations. In the academic school year of 2008-2009, Socorro High School was still identified as stage two in the Adequate Yearly Progress. The campus continued working on intervention strategies and systems in order to close the gap by gaining acceptable ratings at the closing of the 2009 academic school year in ELA and Math. Preliminary data indicates that Socorro High School met AYP and will be a TEA Recognized campus.

Socorro High School has developed a two-year campus improvement plan to continue to meet the federal AYP requirements as well as to achieve a state Exemplary status. In this plan, the campus has implemented a common planning period for all core area teachers. In this planning period, teachers meet by course to disaggregate data, develop common assessments and pace their instruction based on data. Core area teachers have attended the Margaret Kilgo Data-Disaggregation and Assessment training and Margaret Kilgo Scope and Sequence training in order to learn how to analyze data, develop targeted lesson plans, develop an assessment history and create leveled questions aligned with the TEKS/TAKS objectives. In addition, the district's bilingual department has catered Shelter Instruction Observation Protocol (SIOP) training by integrating all SIOP strategies within the interactive whiteboards (IWB) to enhance the pedagogy.

Furthermore, to improve the pedagogy and methodology of the instruction, outside expert consultants will be contracted to provide additional support/staff development to enhance the delivery of the lesson. Stetson and Associates will be working closely with inclusion teachers on improving the instruction of our special education population.

Student Findings and Strengths

Goal 1: We will increase the levels of all students’ performance in all grade levels in all TAKS content areas by establishing benchmarks, aligning instructional content, and assessing data to increase student achievement and high graduation rates in compliance with the No Child Left Behind requirements.

The 2009 district preliminary accountability data showed that Socorro High School received a rating of “Recognized". There were increases in all content areas. The following "met standard" data was received: Reading/ELA 87%, an increase of 2%, Social Studies 94%, an increase of 7%, Mathematics 74%, an increase of 11%, Science 72% and increase of 11%.

Socorro High School set the following goals for the 2009-2010 academic school year for all students: Mathematics 90%, Science 90%, ELA 95%, Social Studies 95%, with an overall individual student classroom expectation of 100%.

Socorro High School is a school-wide Title One campus working to ensure that the intended Title One beneficiaries are the at-risk students who are experiencing difficulty mastering the state and federal academic achievement standards. All subgroups at Socorro High School are equally important and instructional focus will be given to each equally. The at-risk sub group has historically been the Limited English Proficient students (ESL, non-ESL but served, and recent immigrants), special education students, and economically disadvantaged students.
TAKS, TAKS A, TAKS M, and TAKS Alt will be administered and our students will need to be fully prepared to be academically successful. The intent is to use Title One funds to supplement and enhance our resources so that we can close the achievement gap of these students. Title One funds will include tutorials, staff development, reading initiatives, salaries for additional support, parental components, technology and additional types of needed support.
Other federal funds expected to be received are as follows:
Title II: Increase student academic achievement through improving teacher and principal quality and preparation.
Title III: Assist Limited English Proficient students to acquire English literacy and achieve state academic standards.
Title IV: Promote a comprehensive drug and violence prevention program;
Title V: To meet the educational needs of all students, especially the at-risk youth.

This 2009-2010 campus improvement plan will be evaluated periodically and all necessary adjustments will be made throughout the course of the academic school year.

Goal 2- We will produce 21st century citizens, competitors, and leaders by expanding, updating, and integrating technology opportunities for our students.

Socorro High School has enhanced instruction by providing teachers with the necessary tools to better prepare students not only to be competitive academically, but to be knowledgeable in technology advancements and computer literacy that will add efficacy to their post secondary goals. Socorro High School classrooms have each been provided an IWB board and all teachers provided initial IWB training during the professional development sessions. Teachers have also been trained on various on-line resources such as Study Island for Math, Science, English Language Arts, and Social Studies (diagnostic tool), TMSDS, and United Streaming. Both scientific and graphing calculators have been purchased so that all students have access to the appropriate calculator during instruction and the state mandated assessments.

Socorro High School has two centralized computer labs accessible to all students, one library computer hub, 10 classroom computers labs ranging from business computer labs, freshmen learning center, NOVANET, and independent labs used for various classroom instruction.


Goal 3- We will attract, retain, and provide growth opportunities for highly qualified staff.

Socorro High School has provided professional staffing opportunities to all new hires. All contracted at Socorro High School have been verified by the district Human Resources department as Highly Qualified, allowing Socorro High School to comply with the district goal of having 100% of the teaching faculty as highly qualified by the fourth week of instruction.

Socorro High School currently has 189 professional staffing positions to include all teachers and counselors. A mentorship program has been designed at Socorro High School to assist with new teacher orientation, as well as a support system to all new and first year teachers. The new teacher mentorship program is headed by the curriculum coach and the district TIPS program staff.

Goal 4- We will provide a fiscally responsible, safe and highly efficient District\Campus environment supportive of student learning.

Socorro High School has established an Emergency Multi- hazard Plan with the collaboration of a Safety Committee that represents all entities in the school. In addition to the EOP, administration has provided training via district initiatives to all support staff and faculty regarding personal safety and injuries.

Socorro High School has staffed four district security guards and three School Resource Officers. The school physical area is extensive; therefore, a computer / camera system has been installed with enhancements and radio communication to be expected this year as well. All efforts placed into this department have resulted in a decrease in student problematic situations.
A safety committee will be introduced during the 2009-2010 school year that will consist of campus administration, School Resource Officers, school security officers, teachers, counselors, staff, parents and students. In addition, all teachers will be assigned campus duty for the 2009-2010 school year.

Fiscally, Socorro High School with the direction of the principal, has strategically allocated funds to best support the areas of instruction that are of the greatest need. Students are the primary beneficiaries of all initiatives regarding the fiscal support of extracurricular programs, instructional programs, teacher trainings and support staff trainings.

Goal 5- We will improve parental/community involvement by creating effective home-to-school communications and increasing family learning opportunities.

Socorro High School has scheduled for the 2009-2010 academic school year a number of parent meetings ranging from the scheduled parent nights in the Fall and Spring to the individual Academy Parent Meetings addressing the goals and initiatives of the programs.

Socorro High School’s parent liaison has scheduled classes, Family Frameworks, throughout the academic school year. The Counseling Department will be meeting with parents to inform them of the graduation plans and postsecondary preparation for all Socorro High School students.

School resource officers will also be presenting Parent education information regarding safety in the school.

Socorro High School has enhanced the communication system in order to best deliver important and relevant information directly to the home of the student. The Global Connect, automatic telephone system, will be utilized more effectively this academic school by targeting subgroups with the relevant message pertaining to that student group. Socorro High School has also been actively promoting the mailing of all progress reporting periods directly to the parents of each student in the campus to ensure that parents are aware of the academic progress of their child.

Goal 6- We will provide all students with the opportunity to graduate from high school college-ready and ensure they have the skills to successfully compete in a global economy.

Socorro High School Counseling Department has been strategically assigned an academy allowing for the addressing career paths that impact post-secondary educational choices. Embedded in each respective plan are all the aspects of preparation and credentials required to be competitive in post secondary educational pools. To support students in their post secondary educational decisions, SHS has established a sound foundation to support the initiative to better prepare students to be academically successful in high school.
Socorro High School initiatives for the 2009-2010 academic school year include data desegregating throughout the academic school year in order to assess student academic needs early and to promote a solid education plan for each student. Re-teaching, remediation, and tutoring will therefore be targeted based on need. In addition, SHS supports the Freshmen Initiative Program and the district wide ARMI Program which address student need and student guidance throughout the year. SHS Departmental and Academy Planning is every other Tuesday in rotation with the primary focus on addressing and enhancing instructional strategies to be taught at a high blooms level, and also to include discussions regarding at-risk interventions for at-risk student populations.

Goal 7
We will provide facilities that will support the District’s learning environment.

Socorro High School has established an energy conservation plan that includes educating all school community about the importance of committing to energy conservation. In addition to the energy plan, Socorro High School has an established maintenance program and as a result, has kept Socorro High School as a very clean, safe, and well preserved facility for our school community. In addition to our support staff, the Socorro High School Student Council has been instrumental in promoting energy conservation and recycling of reusable items through various means of activities and presentations.
