Based on your schools NSPF results, identify what additional data have been reviewed and analyzed in development of the SPP.
Summary Statement: Please provide a brief description for how the analyzed data will impact your Inquiry and Action Planning process.
According to the official 2017-2018 NDE Validation Day data, the Wolfe Elementary student population consists of Asian (2.9%), African American (18.2%), White/Caucasian (23.6%),
Hispanic/Latino (47%), Native American/Alaskan Native (0.1%), Multiracial (5.6%), Hawaiian Pacific Islander (2.2%), FRL (100%), IEP (18.6%), and LEP (22.9%) with a total of 512 students. This is
the third year that 100% of our students have qualified for free and reduced lunch.
The most recent statewide summative assessment data was analyzed, and we identified the following:
Relative Strength:
For the past two years, students median growth percentile in ELA has been average. In 2016-17, it was 50.5. In 2017-18, it was 48.5.
In ELA, 66.7% of our students in the two or more races subgroup were proficient.
Areas to Target:
In math, 25% of the students were proficient. Only 6.8% of students in the African American subgroup were proficient. Both of these data indicate a Tier I instruction issue to be resolved as well
as necessitate a school-wide focus on ensuring our African American students are provided adequate access to math instruction.
Our NCCAT results indicated that teachers needed to focus on developing and communicating a shared vision; improving collaborative data decision-making structures; and using effective
strategies to differentiate instruction. Those areas of focus have been incorporated into the SPP.
~ All instructional staff members use effective instructional strategies to meet the learning needs of all students (1.3);
~ All instructional staff members routinely collaborate to review the impact of instructional strategies and to modify instruction accordingly (1.4);
~ School leadership develops and communicates a clear, shared vision and mission (3.1).

COMPONENT II: Inquiry Process & Action Plan Design- Priority Need/Goal 1
Priority Need/Goal 1:
Increase reading and math proficiency rates in students
Root Causes:
Explicit instruction that includes tasks that place appropriate demands on each student and progressively develop all students' cognitive abilities and skills is not consistently evident during
instruction (NEPF 2.2). In addition, opportunities for extended productive discourse between the teacher and students and among students is not consistently evident during classroom instruction
(NEPF Standard 3).
Measurable Objective 1:
Increase the percent of third grade students proficient in reading from 36% to 46% by spring 2019 as measured by the Reading SBAC.
Measurable Objective 2:
Increase the percent of students proficient in reading from 40% to 50%.
Measurable Objective 3:
Increase the percent of students proficient in math from 25% to 35%.

Title I Schools operating a Schoolwide Program must complete Items 1 through 5 on this page.
1. Describe the school's strategies to attract effective, highly-qualified teachers to your school.
Staff at Wolfe ES positively market the school and encourage their family and friends to suggest to strong teaching candidates that they apply to Wolfe ES.
2. Describe the school's strategies to increase family engagement in accordance with Section 1118 of NCLB (see resource link), such as family literacy services and the
provision to parents on how the school will share academic information in a language they understand.
At the beginning of the school year, each grade level held a curriculum overview meeting to help families understand what their child is expected to learn throughout the year as well as the level
of rigor expected. FACES and ELL Department provide parent classes provide families engaging activities that can be done at home to support learning at school. Parent communication is sent
home in English and Spanish.
3. Describe the school's plans for transition and articulation between school programs (ie: assisting preschool children from early childhood programs such as Head Start,
Even Start, or a state-run preschool program to elementary school, elementary school to middle school, and middle to high school, etc.).
The Wolfe ES staff work with the zoned and magnet middle schools to provide students opportunities to visit prospective new campuses. Some of the middle schools have parent meetings to
acquaint families with variety of opportunities offered at the middle school.
4. Identify the measures that include teachers in decisions regarding the use of academic assessments.
Surveys are sent and leadership meetings are held to allows teachers input as to the academic assessments purchased. Grade levels work together to determine grade-level common
assessments.
5. Provide assurance that federal, state, and local services are coordinated and integrated into the school improvement efforts
The general, 1003(a), Title I, Title III, and 21st Century Community Learning Center funds are all used to improve Tier I instruction by improving teaching through professional development and
supporting students' differentiated needs.
