Comprehensive Needs Assessment
The Robert R. Rojas Campus Improvement Plan (CIP) is prepared in accordance with requirements of Chapter 11, Subchapter F, of the Texas Education Code, specifically §11.251 and §11.252. These requirements are also contained in SISD policies BQ (Legal) and BQA (Legal).

Each school shall have a campus improvement plan that is developed, evaluated, and revised annually, in accordance with district policy, by the Principal with the assistance of the campus-level committee. The purpose of the campus improvement plan is to guide campus staff in the improvement of student performance for all student groups in order to attain state standards in respect to academic excellence indicators.

The CIP is required by statute to include the following components:

• Comprehensive Needs Assessment
• Measurable campus performance objectives
• Strategies for improvement of student performance
• Description of resources needed to implement identified strategies
• Description of staff responsible for accomplishing each strategy
• Timelines for implementation of each strategy
• Formative evaluation criteria
• Summative evaluation criteria

In developing the 2009-2010 CIP, the Robert R. Rojas School Improvement Committee (SIT), comprised of elected members representing all grade levels, along with a parent representative, analyzed data sources, met in committee to review the Needs Assessment, proposed Performance Objectives, and in June 2009 recommended approval.

Comprehensive Needs Assessment

Introduction:

This plan was created by various members of the Robert R. Rojas School Improvement Team (SIT) Committee. The goals contained within are aligned to district/state goals. A needs assessment was conducted to determine our strengths and weaknesses. This assessment included the review of student assessment data from various sources such as the Academic Excellence Indicator System (AEIS), TAKS performance in Reading, Math, Science and Writing disaggregated by student populations that included Hispanic and Economically Disadvantaged. Other data reviewed by SIT included Title I Adequate Yearly Progress requirements, TAKS-A results, benchmark assessments, ARMS reports, TPRI/Tejas Lee, EOY reports PEIMS data, OEYP reports, discipline and Olweus Bullying Survey reports. Our performance objectives, which are aimed at increasing student achievement across the board, were then discussed and agreed upon. Available campus, district and community resources were evaluated and incorporated into the strategies listed under each objective. Student progress will be monitored via several avenues such as 3-week and 6-week progress reports, 9-week report cards, district and state-mandated testing and reading assessments at the beginning, middle and end of the school year.

The selected data sources were analyzed and summarized in order to target the seven district goals. The needs assessment is based on longitudinal and current year data disaggregation of: 1) student performance by demographics and ethnicity to align curriculum, 2) technology needs as referenced in technology plan, 3) retention of highly qualified staff and professional development, 4) safe and drug-free learning environment, 5) parental involvement in the learning process, 6) college-ready opportunities, and 7) facilities that optimize the learning environment. Incorporated into the plan, are areas for improvement of student performance documented as measurable objectives followed by strategies/activities and/or programs.

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 No Child Left Behind requirements.
The 2008 state/district accountability data reveals that Robert R. Rojas School received a rating of “Recognized”. In 2009 Robert R. Rojas School received a rating of "Recognized” and once again maintained the “Recognized Rating” two years in a row.

TAKS gains were made. The most notable improvement was in Science, with a gain of 6 percentage points for all student populations. In Reading/ELA, a gain of 2 percentage points was made by all student populations. In Writing, 97 percent of all students met standard, an increase of 2 percentage points from 2008.

Robert R. Rojas School has set the following expectations in the different content areas for all subgroup populations:
Reading: from 87% in May 2009 to 90% by May 2010;
Mathematics: from 85% in May 2009 to 88% by May 2010;
Science: from 80% in May 2009 to 85% by May 2010;
Writing: from 97% in May 2009 to 99% by May 2010;
TAKS-A: from 46% in May 2009 to 60% by May 2010.
These expectations are set with the district’s expectation of reaching “Recognized” status in 2010.

Under the accountability provisions in the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act, all public school campuses, school districts, and the state are evaluated for Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP). Campuses are required to meet AYP criteria on three measures: Reading, Mathematics, and Attendance Rate (for elementary schools). If a campus that is receiving Title I, Part A funds and fails to meet AYP for two consecutive years, that campus is subject to certain requirements such as offering supplemental education services, offering school choice, and/or taking corrective actions. The Texas Education Agency’s Office of Accountability and Data Quality indicates that the 2008 preliminary Title I AYP requirements reflect that Robert R. Rojas School will meet AYP requirements.

In an effort to assist these students with provisions set forth by NCLB, the campus’s instructional team members will work closely with the teachers to ensure the performance objectives set forth in our campus improvement plan, are met by the end of the school year. By carrying out all proposed intervention strategies; such as ARMS, OEYP (Optional Extended Year Program), tutoring, intersession, Super School classes (in school tutoring), I.M.P.A.C.T. (Improving Mastery Practices Among Campus Teachers) classes ect. students will reach the campus goals for the 2009-2010 school year.

Robert R. Rojas School is also committed to maintaining the highest possible educational environment for optimal learning and student success in the following areas:

Goal 2- We will produce 21st Century citizens, competitors, and leaders by expanding, updating, and integrating technology opportunities for our students.
The STAR Chart Data and campus/district level technology surveys will guide us to expand technology opportunities to include more access to computer assisted instruction, student e-mail, interactive lessons via interactive white boards, acti-votes, teacher technology trainings to help us meet advanced level on the Star Chart Survey and create more infrastructures for technology whenever possible.
The CNA Committee identified the following strengths and needs for Goal 2:
Strengths: 1) 100% of faculty, staff and students have access to technology equipment and the district server for data storage, 2) 95% of classrooms have Interactive White Boards (IWB) in order to assist with curricular instruction (will be 100% by the end of 2010) and 3) a high involvement of student participation in the district Technology Awards.
Needs: 1) Additional funding is needed in order to upgrade existing equipment or purchase new hardware, 2) offer technology classes for parents on a monthly basis and 3) provide additional technology training for all campus stakeholders.


Goal 3- We will attract, retain, and provide growth opportunities for highly qualified staff. Robert R. Rojas School will follow all district hiring policies and participate in a recruiting program and collaborate with post-secondary institutions to effectively recruit teachers and staff. Our administration will participate in employee recruiting programs such as District/UTEP job fairs, participating in other applicable job fairs as needed, posting of positions in multiple medias, etc.

Robert R. Rojas School will ensure that our low-income and minority students are taught by “highly qualified” teachers by implementing class size reduction programs as needed, and providing professional development opportunities.

Robert R. Rojas School will assist in increasing the retention rate of all “highly qualified” teachers by participating in district-wide staff development training and in the Teacher Induction Program for Socorro (TIPS) for all new teachers and to offer strong support for all new staff.
We will continue to work in collaboration with our district’s Teacher Induction Program for Socorro (TIPS) to assist new teachers. We will provide campus level staff development, encourage participation in district and other applicable staff development.
Our campus will provide a mentor teacher for each new teacher to our campus (whether they have previous teaching experience or not) and provide them time to meet on an individual basis. We will provide attendance incentives for campus staff on a nine week period. We will also assist teachers with our I.M.P.A.C.T. (Improving Mastery Practices Among Campus Teachers) in order to retain and support our highly qualified teachers.
Goal 4- We will provide a fiscally responsible, safe and highly efficient campus environment supportive of student learning. Our school will implement a Campus-wide Multi-hazard Emergency Operations Plan, reduce job related accidents and Worker’s Compensation claims.

The campus will also promote safe and drug free school through various trainings and presentations which will include, the GREAT Program, NetSmartz Program, School Resource Officer (SRO) presentations, Safe & Drug Free Schools presentations, Anti-gang presentations, stranger danger presentations, Red Ribbon Week Activities, and a bullying prevention program. Robert R. Rojas School will continue implementing the nationally recognized Olweus Bullying Prevention Program (OBPP) in our school during the 2009-2010 school year. The Olweus Bullying Prevention Program is recognized by the Center for the Study and Prevention of Violence as one of only 11 Blueprint Model Programs and has been more thoroughly evaluated than any other bullying prevention/reduction program. Six large-scale evaluations involving more than 40,000 students have documented positive results. Robert R. Rojas School reduced bullying related incidents by 33% during the 2008-09 school year. In addition, the campus will hold a health fair and other activities that will educate students, parents, faculty and staff about healthy lifestyle habits with the purpose of reducing obesity and promoting fitness and will provide enrichment and educational opportunities on current issues and trends that affect students’ safety in the social, emotional, physical and educational setting. Our campus S.I.T. Committee has currently reviewed our Olweus Bullying Prevention Program student surveys and the following have been identified as a campus need to implement campus safety:
1) Increase the monitoring of campus students during times of transition, before/after school, during lunch, and during support staff classes.
2) Provide parents with more information regarding bullying definitions, behaviors, conflict resolution, and include parenting classes on these topics.
3) Continue to implement all of the components of the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program (OBPP) to ensure student, community and staff safety.

Goal 5- Robert R. Rojas School will improve parental/community involvement by creating effective home-to-school communications and increasing family learning opportunities through various methods. Our campus will disseminate information about campus and district committees and parental involvement programs via various sources. We will provide opportunities for parent visits every once a month via “Coffee with the Principal Community Meetings. We will host parent meetings to discuss roles and functions of committees and solicit volunteers for each committee. We will provide effective communication with parents and will identify and provide for communication needs such as sign language, interpreters and translation equipment as needed. We will provide more opportunities for parents to visit our campus in the evening. Robert R. Rojas School's parent liaison will be part of the Superintendent’s Advisory Committee and will be trained in decision making and dissemination of information processes. To measure the effectiveness of the program, a Parent Customer Service Survey will be conducted at the end of the school year.


We will also provide access to Title I Mobile Learning Unit facilities, publicize the availability of Socorro High School’s community library, provide parents with information regarding career and post secondary education opportunities, continue to provide monthly parenting classes, as well as special education options. Our campus will continue to collaborate and strengthen the relationship with the members in our Partners in Education Program. We will refine our communication process via e-mail, face to face contacts, and telephone calls.

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. Students’ exposure to higher education opportunities which begins upon entering elementary school and continues throughout their school career. Activities to ensure students are adequately exposed to higher education information. This will include Career Day; a full week of the state mandated HB 2237 Education “Go Get It Week” which focuses on higher education activities. Our school will continue to provide student presentations regarding higher education opportunities throughout the school year. Our campus will ensure that parents are informed about higher education opportunities for their children. We also help promote a higher education awareness once a month by encouraging all students and faculty to wear college apparel on selected dates.
In addition, teachers are afforded with opportunities to attend summer training institutes for G/T insuring that our students have the most highly qualified teachers.


Goal 7- We will provide facilities that will support the campus’s learning environment. Our campus will be upgraded to be equitable to new construction as determined by administration and district officials. New construction will be reported to the district by administration. Our district officials will have the final approval of any and all new construction.
