Continuous Achievement Plan
Continuous Achievement Process & Plan - 2026 Quarter 1
Our school continuously monitors practice and asks ourselves, "What can we do better?". The only things we have complete control over is our practice. While we do consider other factors, we drive the trajectory of our school and so commit to reflect constantly and change practice as a result. We owe it to our students and our community to be the best educational experience our students can get.
Our Vision
We educate, empower and inspire rigorous, joyful learning every single day.
Our Mission
We evaluate our data and since 2016, when we came together as a school team, we knew we needed to put the population most underserved at the fore front. We have this essential question: How do we engage our African American boys, our Latino boys, and students identified as EL in rigorous and joyful learning in English Language Arts and Math with anti-racist and healing centered practices every single day? We evaluate this question regularly and have continuously closed the gap.
Academic Goals
ELA Goals: Kindergarten – 5th Grade
Kindergarten
Goal: What are we trying to achieve
Achieve a 80% pass rate for the selected standard by the end of the quarter.
There are 5 students in kindergarten who meet the grade level standard for RF.K.3. 80% of 36 students in kindergarten (28) working below grade level in this standard will achieve grade level fluency in blending as measured by CFAs, professional observation, and the winter iReady diagnostic. The Culturally Responsive practices used include, but are not limited to, regular student feedback, small group learning, access to multiple modalities (such as manipulatives, TPR, etc.) and use of rubrics.
CURRICULUM: The standards and units we are targeting
STANDARD: RF.K.3 Know and apply grade-level phonics and word analysis skills in decoding words

SUPPORTING STUDENTS AT TIER I ON THESE STANDARDS
By implementing explicit, sequential, Tier 1 core instruction using known high yield strategies such as modelling and practice using manipulatable materials, and frequent practice during whole group instruction as well as reteaching with manipulatives and modelling during small group instruction, students will build understanding. Leveraging independent and small group practice and regular assessments students will demonstrate growth as measured by CFAs, teacher directed assessments, and the winter iReady diagnostic.
SUPPORTING STUDENTS AT TIER II ON THESE STANDARDS
For students who are approaching RF.K.3, students will receive additional instruction during small group. High yield strategies include reteaching, practice using manipulatives, additional blending practice using resources within Sawas Reading Routines.

In Second Grade we will implement standards-based instruction with using Common Core State Standards, through the use of Sawas and supplemental instructional materials. As a team we will deliver clear action-based teaching using anchor charts for students to access learning through-out the unit. We will also use a new passage fluency routine 3 times a week, using partner reading, cold and warm reads/practice and student self-assessment for improvement in fluency and comprehension. We will focus on student discourse throughout the unit focusing on student voice and participation.
SUPPORTING STUDENTS AT TIER II ON THESE STANDARDS
We will focus on small group guided reading for comprehension and strengthen story elements. We will also do a vocabulary lesson in each guided reading group, also to be worked on during independent learning time. We will also use scaffolded supports using graphic organizers and teaching the steps to use a graphic organizer to sort out story elements with beginning, middle and end.
SUPPORTING STUDENTS AT TIER III ON THESE STANDARDS
Reading Fluency- phonics will be worked on during interventionist times. Also, in small skill groups within the classroom we will work on phonemic awareness, phonics, and sight words to build fluency. When students build their fluency it will help with comprehension. Comprehension will lead to understanding and retelling of the story such as: beginning, middle and end.

Tier two instruction to be used to impact the learning goal of steady beat are individualized games that provide opportunities for students to show individual growth with the goal, and songs demonstrate the beat that directly tie to the goal that can be sung anywhere, not just in the music classroom. I know these strategies were effective because students were observed showing the skill, assessment scores from individualized games, and observable assessments from class time. Observable formative and summative assessments from class time.
SUPPORTING STUDENTS AT TIER III ON THESE STANDARDS
Tier three strategies will be provided for all students as extra support by the music teacher. Due to time constraints and focus on improving reading, writing and math scores, there is no additional time to meet individually with students outside of their already scheduled music instruction time. All students are given class time with a specialist with extensive knowledge in music and all are monitored for individual growth based off of their starting base of zero.

Our goal is to decrease the number of synergy major and minor incidents from lunch/recess time by 25%, which is moving from 65 to 48 jag reports.
STEPS: How we will accomplish this goal
PROMOTING SEL FOR STUDENT IMPACT
This quarter, Reed staff and students will continue to deepen the use of emotional regulation strategies by helping students develop a more depth of vocabulary. This will help students be able to describe their feelings, manage and regulate their feelings of high energy and low pleasantness, and practice their way of getting their needs met and getting to a more regulated state. Also, proactively teach students how to body scan in order to identify their own clues that alert them when a strong feeling is coming on.
