Introduction and School Overview:
|
Stovall-Shaw Elementary School is a PreK-5th grade community school with a choice program devoted to helping students grow in a positive way both physically and academically by utilizing the CATCH program. Our school population is approximately 350 students. We are a diverse Title I school with a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students. Over the past five years the school has faced a school merger, a pandemic, and the constant pull from a nearby charter school, which has changed the enrollment numbers as well as the demographic makeup of the school. We feel that we have mostly moved past those changes and are now embracing our new normal. We still have lingering effects from the pandemic as seen in our lower attendance rates. This year we hope to significantly increase that number as we also increase student growth, therefore raising our overall proficiency rates.

Teams will meet with the MTSS team every 4-6 weeks with all relevant data present and ready to analyze before the meeting.
-
Teachers will write Tier II and Tier III plans using specific interventions aligned to targeted goals for students not demonstrating proficiency and not progressing towards proficiency.
-
All teachers will be trained and supported on how to effectively utilize ECATS to track students' progress towards meeting targeted goals.
