Comprehensive Needs Assessment

Introduction

Helen Ball is an Exemplary Campus as per AYP and State requirements. Dalmatians achieved Exemplary status due to the hard work of students, teachers, administration, staff, parents, and the community. The Campus Improvement Team met and reviewed TAKS performance in reading, math, science, and writing, disaggregated by student populations that included African American, Hispanic, White, and Economically Disadvantaged. In addition, the committee will continue to review various documents to assess instructional programs addressing the needs of at-risk, economically disadvantaged, gifted and talented, immigrant, English language learners, migrant, dyslexia, and special education students.

The current student enrollment is 996 students, from which 470 are female are 526 are male. Ninety-two percent of our student population is Hispanic; 5% white, 2% African American; 2% American Indian; and .3% Asian. There are a total of 532 At-Risk students which total 53% of the population. 67% of the student population is on free or reduced lunch.

Helen Ball Dalmatians take pride in serving students. Our campus teaching staff is highly qualified and includes:

Grade Number of Teachers
Pre-Kindergarten 2
Kinder 6
1st 7
2nd 7
3rd 8
4th 8
5th 6
Special Ed 6

In addition, Helen Ball’s support staff goal is to ensure our students’ well being. Staff ranges from Counselors to, Social Worker Aide, At-Risk Instructional Aide, Librarian, Librarian aide, Parent Liaison, Nurse, Tech Pilot and Special Education personnel to include Diagnostician, Dyslexia Provider, Occupational Therapist, Physical Therapist, Adaptive PE Coach, Music Therapist, Speech Therapist, Auditory Impaired teacher, Communication assistant, Visual Impaired teacher, Autism In-Home Trainer and Special Ed Counselor.

Data was analyzed by the Campus Improvement Team and summarized in order to target our campus goals. The needs assessment is based on longitudinal and current year data desegregation and dissemination of seven campus goals; 1) Increase all students academic performance; 2) Produce 21st century citizens, competitors, and leaders; 3) Attract and retain highly qualified staff; 4) Provide fiscally responsible, safe and highly qualified staff; 5) Improve parental and community involvement; 6) Ensure that all students graduate college-ready to successfully compete in a global community; and 7) Provide facilities to support the School’s learning environment. Incorporated into the plan are areas for improvement of student performance documented as measurable objectives followed by strategies/activities and/or programs.

The Campus Improvement Team composed of grade level teacher representatives, campus administrators, community representatives and campus support staff have reviewed academic results for the 2008-2009 school year, and agreed to the following goals:

Goal 1: Increase All Students’ Academic Performance

To increase the levels of all student performance, in all grade levels, in all TAKS content areas in compliance with NCLB requirements, by establishing benchmarks, aligning instructional content, and assessing data, as stated in the first campus goal. By the end of the 2009-2010 school year, TAKS Math scores will increase from 92% passing to 100% passing; TAKS scores for Science will increase from 94% passing to 100% passing; TAKS Reading scores will increase from 93% passing to 100% passing; and TAKS Writing scores will increase from 98% passing to 100% passing rate by the end of the 2009-2010 school year.

In addition, the number of students identified as at-risk for academic reasons will decrease from 53% to 40% by the end of the 2009-2010 school year. All at-risk students (Economically Disadvantaged, SPED, Migrant, and English Language Limited students/Bilingual) will participate in extended learning time, tutorial sessions, Accelerated Reading and Math tutoring, and/or a Pull-Out Program with Helen Ball’s At Risk Campus Aid during and outside of regular school hours via Dalmatian Station Tutoring Program and Socrates Intervention Unit. In addition, all at-risk students with academic learning needs (Econ. Disadvantage, SPED, LEP, Migrant, and Bilingual) will be monitored through the TST, Teacher Support Team and School Counselors and receive assistance from other community resources such as mentors, counseling, and parent volunteers. In addition, we will provide materials that support academic instruction to all At-Risk students that are in custody or care of Protective and Regulative Services, homeless, as defined by 42 U.S.C., Section 11302, or resided in the preceding or current school year in a residential placement facility in the district, or other elements defined by code.

Goal 2: Produce 21st Century Citizens, Competitors, and Leaders

Helen Ball is committed to expanding and updating the technology-use opportunities for our stakeholders by ensuring technology integration in all content areas. This year we are on target in three of the four areas assessed by the Texas STaRchart: 1) teaching and learning, 2) educator preparation and development and 3) leadership, administration and instructional support. An area of need is 4) infrastructure for technology. Helen Ball Elementary will use district mandated software programs such as ScanTEK for Science, Destination Math & Reading, United Streaming, and District School House. A technology committee will be formed to address the technology needs of teachers, students and the community.

Goal 3: Attract and Retain Highly Qualified Staff

The third goal is to continue to attract and retain highly qualified staff by providing purposeful and relevant staff development based on student needs and teacher feedback. Through professional development of teachers, we expect for the student performance of state standardized tests to increase in all content areas as evaluated by the TAKS results. Helen Ball will support new teachers through participation in the District’s TIPS program and the UTEP Student Teacher Preparation program.

Goal 4: Provide Fiscally Responsible, Safe and Highly Efficient Learning Environments

Helen Ball will promote a safe and drug free school through trainings and presentations to include S.R.O presentations, Safe and Drug-free school presentations, Anti-gang presentations, Stranger Danger presentations and a Bully-prevention program. Helen Ball will implement the nationally-recognized Olweus Bully Prevention program. The school’s safety committee and Positive Behavior Support team will monitor and evaluate the programs in place. In addition, Helen Ball will provide safety trainings for faculty, staff and cross-guards/monitors to ensure the safety of all students and promote health awareness through the CATCH program.

Goal 5: Improve Parental and Community Involvement

Helen Ball will provide parents the opportunity to participate in their children’s academic experience. Effective home-to-school communication will be in place through the use of phone and written contacts, monthly news-letters and teacher web pages. Parents will also have the opportunity to take part in parental involvement through participation in our Family Frameworks parent meetings, parent awareness sessions/workshops, volunteer programs, student performances and ceremonies, parenting trainings, conferences and workshops as well as through teacher parent conferences.

Goal 6: Ensure that all Students Graduate College-Ready to Successfully Compete in a Global Economy

Helen Ball is committed to providing our students will the tools needed to graduate high school college-ready and ready and able to compete in a global economy. The school will participate in the district’s “Education Go Get it Week,” providing information for both students and parents. We will increase our commended performance rates in 2009-2010 in Reading from 38% to 53%; in Math from 45% to 60%; in writing from 29% to 44%, and in science from 56% to 71%. All eligible students will be given the opportunity to participate in a fully-developed GT program. Helen Ball will track interventions of at-risk students through the TST process and ARMS.


Goal 7: Provide Facilities that Support the School’s Learning Environment

Helen Ball will ensure that we provide facilities that support and optimize the District’s and Campus’ learning environment. We will promote environmentally conscious students, faculty and staff by implementing the Watt Watchers program and promoting earth friendly activities.
