Comprehensive Needs Assessment

In establishing the 2009-2010 Vista del Sol Campus Improvement Plan (CIP), the Campus Instructional Team along with the School Improvement Team (SIT) met in committee on June 10th to analyze data sources, review the Needs Assessment and develop our improvement goals. The SIT committee and other stake holders will provide on-going monitoring of the strategies included in the CIP. This will take place during grade level and SIT meetings, and meetings with other stake holders.

Vista del Sol met TEA Exemplary status for the 2008-2009 school year. The campus was comprised of Pre-K through 6th grade with a total population of 622 students.
The ethnic composition of our student population is as follows:
• 605 Hispanics
• 11 whites
• 5 Blacks
• 1 Asian

Campus classrooms consisted of:
• 21 Monolingual classrooms
• 11 Transitional classrooms
• 1 Behavior Intervention Class (BIC)
• 1 Preschool Program for Children with Disabilities (PPCD)
• 1 Structured Learning Unit (SLU)
• 1 CWC/Resource Combo

To complete the annual campus plan the Instructional Team and SIT members analyzed data from sources that included: SELP, TELPAS, TPRI, TAKS performance and Commended performance in Reading, Math, Writing, and Science. Other data reviewed included TAKS-ALT, TAKS M, and TAKS A results, benchmark. Additionally, the committee reviewed various documents to assess instructional programs addressing the needs of at-risk, economically disadvantaged, gifted and talented, English Language learners, dyslexia and special education students and student safety. PEIMS Discipline Reports were also reviewed to analyze the effectiveness of current discipline school-wide practices. The 2009-2010 campus plan reflects areas for improvement of student performance documented as measurable objectives aligned with the seven district goals followed by strategies, activities, and/or programs.

Student Findings and Strengths

Goal 1: Vista del Sol will increase the levels of all students' performance in all grade level 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.

Vista del Sol will continue to implement best practices in the classroom to strengthen our core reading program and provide targeted intervention for the struggling students. The following data reflects our 2009 EOY TPRI results for grades Kinder through third grade:
• Kinder showed an increase in all tasks of the TPRI: Rhyming 94%, Blending Word Parts 94%, Deleting Initial Sounds 92%, Deleting Final Sounds 83%, Letter Name Identification 100%, Letter to Sound Linking 97%, Comprehension 89%.

Comprehension will be a target area for the 2009-2010 school year. Teachers will be trained in comprehension strategies to implement in the classroom and implementation of strategies will be monitored through classroom walkthroughs. Student progress will be monitored with classroom analysis worksheets during grade level meetings.
• 2nd grade TRPI results are as follows: Spelling 87%, Comprehension 75%. Comprehension will be a target area for the 2009-2010 school year. Teachers will be trained in comprehension strategies to implement in the classroom and implementation of strategies will be monitored through classroom walkthroughs. Student progress will be monitored with classroom analysis worksheets during grade level meetings.
• 3rd grade TPRI results are as follows: Spelling 31%, Comprehension 85%. Spelling is a target area for the following 2009-2010 school year. Graphophonemic knowledge (GK) routines will be implemented from the beginning of the school year and monitored through classroom walkthroughs. Student progress in GK routines will be monitored every three weeks to ensure interventions are put in place for the struggling student. During the first 9 weeks, GK routines will be implemented for students in 4th and 5th grade. Their progress will be monitored every three weeks and intervention groups will be established using the data.

Vista del Sol has set the following expectations to increase student achievement in all tasks for the EOY TPRI. Transitional classrooms will be administered the TPRI to measure student progress in reading. As needed, the transitional students may also be tested with the Tejas LEE diagnostic test to gather any other important information to assess students’ reading knowledge.

As an “Exemplary” school, TAKS gains were made at Vista del Sol in the 2008-2009 school year. In addition to the “all students” group, the subgroups taken into account for our state accountability rating are our Hispanic and economically disadvantaged student population.
• The most notable improvement was in Science with a 95% passing rate and a 55% commended rate. There was a 17% gain in passing rate and a 31% increase in commended performance from the previous school year. Our Hispanic population scored a 94% passing rate and our economically disadvantaged students scored a 95% passing rate.
• Math TAKS scores show a 95% passing rate and a 54% commended performance. The passing rate remained the same with 1% point increase in our commended performance from the previous year. Our Hispanic and economically disadvantaged population scored a 93% passing rate.

Our Hispanic population scored a 92% passing rate and our economically disadvantaged students scored a 93% passing rate.
This is a target area for Vista del Sol. We want to increase the percent meeting standard on the first administration of TAKS and improve our commended performance.
• Writing TAKS scores had a 97% passing rate with a 45% commended performance. Writing scores showed a 2% decrease with a 10% increase in commended performance from the previous school year. Our Hispanic population scored a 97% passing rate and our economically disadvantage students scored a 96% passing rate.

Vista del Sol has set the following expectations in the different content areas for all subgroup populations:
•TAKS Reading: from 93% in May 2009 to ¬¬¬¬95% by May 2010
•TAKS Mathematics: from 95% in May 2009 to 97% by May 2010
•TAKS Writing: from 97% in May 2009 to 99% by May 2010
•TAKS/TAKS-A Science: from 94% in May 2009 to 96% by May 2010

Vista del Sol has set the following expectation in the different content areas for commended performance:
• Reading: from 33% in May 2009 to ¬¬¬¬40% by May 2010
• Math: from 54% in May 2009 to ¬¬¬¬56% by May 2010
• Writing: from 45% in May 2009 to ¬¬¬¬47% by May 2010
• Science: from 55% in May 2009 to ¬¬¬¬57% by May 2010

These expectations are set with the campus’ expectation of reaching “Exemplary” status in 2010.

Under the accountability of the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act, Vista del Sol has met Title I AYP requirements. By carrying out all proposed intervention strategies, students will reach the campus goals for the 2009-2010 school year.


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

The campus is committed to expanding, updating and integrating technology opportunities for all students. Expanded technology opportunities will include activities, such as more access to computer assisted instruction and interactive lessons via interactive white boards. Every classroom is equipped with an interactive white board. We will continue to enhance instruction through the use of the interactive boards and teacher training.

Based on teacher feedback, the following are target areas for the 2009-2010 school year:
• Student technology projects will be planned for a particular content area and TEKS, implemented, monitored, and evaluated every 9 weeks. Flexible scheduling will be used in the projects lab to facilitate student project completion.
• Administer teacher and student surveys to evaluate technology trainings and implementation of skills.

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

Vista del Sol had 2 class size reduction classrooms for the 2008-2009 school year. Vista del Sol will have 1 class size reduction classroom for the 2009-2010 school year. The campus will ensure that low-income and minority students are taught by “highly qualified” teachers and provide teachers with staff-development opportunities. All teachers were highly qualified for the 2008-2009 school year. All teachers for the 2009-2010 will be highly qualified due to the correct certification as set by School Board of Education (SBEC).

Based on teacher feedback, a target area for the 2009-2010 school year will be to provide support and staff development to new teachers, then administer a survey to evaluate the support and staff development received.


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

The campus will promote a safe and drug free school through various trainings and presentations including the GREAT Program, NetSmartz Program, SRO presentations, Safe and Drug Free School presentations, Character development presentations, Anti-bullying presentations, Anti-gang presentations, and Stranger Danger. The campus will participate in the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program to educate students and community about bully prevention and decrease the number of bullying incidents. The campus will educate students, parents, faculty and staff about healthy physical lifestyle habits. Monthly Safety Meetings will be held to ensure practice of all safety policies and procedures to minimize employee injuries and increase safety of students, parents and the community. Surveys will be administered and monitored to evaluate processes and programs in place.


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

Vista del Sol will improve parental/community involvement by creating effective home-to-school communications and increasing family learning opportunities through various methods.
The following are target areas for the 2009-2010 school year:
• School and home communication will improve by providing parents with school-wide and classroom notices, and Monthly newsletters from each grade level.
• A parent liaison will aide in parenting sessions and conduct with the involvement of parents, an annual evaluation of the content and effectiveness of the parental involvement program and use these findings to use these strategies to design more effective parent involvement in the trainings and in volunteering.
• Increase the number in attendance at grade level parent training meetings.


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 at Vista del Sol will have exposure and participate in college readiness activities. A school-wide “Adopt a University” Program will continue to provide students exposure on college readiness and will include grades Kinder through 5th grade. A committee will be created to plan and implement the scheduled activities. In addition, students in grades 3 through 5 will set goals to reach commended performance in TAKS assessments.


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

A student task force will be implemented to increase awareness of energy conservation at Vista del Sol. This school year a Watt Watchers Club was implemented to increase awareness of energy conservation on our campus. Students monitored classrooms and offices to ensure lights were off when class was empty, checked if in-focus projectors were off when not in use and that all computers were off at the end of the day. We will continue with this program for the new school year with a few modifications. We will implement the Watt Watchers program by the first nine weeks and have students share ways to conserve energy at least once a month on morning announcements.
