So you're the one putting the stuff on the screen send it to me so far because I gave you the coast so I'm not a house anywhere so we can do for you or presentation and you should be able to jump on that and go to sleep 12 and slide 13 go to slide 12 and slide 13 and my apologies on that folks fortunately I cannot change the permissions right now while I'm still in Zoom cuz otherwise it makes me log off and all this other stuff but mistletoe can put that up in a so myself out of the document is called January day today framing final and you can go to slide 12 if that's possible or so see Miss Olivia somewhere in the middle now hello Miss Amora thank you for being here it's loading the presentation now be right almost there where are you wrong scream this is the one flight 12 by 12 yes so parents I don't know how well you'll be able to see it with your current device if you can't see it. we can narrate out some of what we see here but for the parents who can see or who the stop for the staff who can see although some of them have already seen this this is our math data looking from the beginning of the school year back to back to a November when we took the second I ready and so my question for for the team and Ferrara ssac here is what do you notice in terms of the difference so this line here the fall line that was the first test we took and the most recent tests we took is the one in November what do you notice about the date in the math growth at Alliance Valera Middle Academy and if it's easier to put things in the chat cuz I just noticed couple things pop up in the chat that's I think that's Happy Birthday Misha Taco yes it is if you would like to put your comments in the chat you can you can also come off mute but what do You observe what you notice in just for those for those people who are looking to add an i-Ready report for the first time darker green with the stripes that's above grade level green is on grade level yellow is one grade level below read without the stripes is two grade levels below and dark red is three or more grade levels below so what do you notice about the math data at alliance with Larry for the first semester there was an improvement towards the end and so let's see so what do you like what what are you observing their missing l VI where it says that the children are two grade levels below with three or more grade levels below low this red and then the red stripes are less for the most recent test it's supposed to the first round on the first test there were 162 students that were three or more grade levels below on the second test only 120 so 42 kids moved out of three or more years below up to either one year below or two grade levels below and we reduce another way to say that is we reduce the percentage of students scoring three or more years below from 36 to 27% so there was a there was a big growth away from 3 or more years below and on the other side looking at our students that are on grade level or above grade level we went from 16% on grade level or above grade level to 25% on grade level or above grade level and so that lets us know that. play did we move students from three or more years below up but we also moved some of our students who were right there in the middle up to on grade level in advance so that that's kind of the story that you see with math see what it looks like for English which is the next line so this is the next slide what do we observe what we observe here any observations by staff or parents are any other educational Partners about what they're observing here I can share go ahead and tell the amount of students that are on grade level or above grade level increased as well as a student who are one below grade level but working their way up towards being angry and at the same time the students that are below grade level is decreasing so overall we're moving in the right direction or seeing a lot of growth from our first assessment to our second one thank you very much Miss Canela just like with the mask we're seeing a reduction in our red and dark red and an increase in our green and dark green and so that's really really exciting again it just means it our students that were closed on grade level are moving up and our students that were far below grade level are also moving out we actually got word from the main office to main Alliance home office that villara really stood out both in terms of their growth and proficiency both for a reading and for math so that's what we've been looking out over the last couple of days at our day today we've been looking at the students that didn't prove we've been looking at the students who were worried about and we want to see them in more we've been looking at survey data the survey data completed by families a student of the survey data completed by students the survey data completed by staff as we try to make adjustment take me to your adjustments to make this as a successful a year as we can make it so that's kind of where we're at we're at the very beginning of semester to all the grades have been like none of the grades from SEC from first semester extending the second semester so students are able to start a whole new a whole new project a whole new Leaf turnover whole new Leaf as it were in regards to their grades mom and apple right at the beginning of second semester I'm happy to answer any questions about that as well but that's where we're at and we're excited to get started any questions from any of the SSA cmap members about any of the data or anything that's going on presently or coming up soon alright well then I will just add one more thing before we close this out January is kind of a short month and in February the things that are starting out that family should be aware of them are the interim assessment so I know sometimes it feels like there's too many assessments but we did the i-Ready Assessments in November and we are starting the interim assessment which were based off of the state test we are starting two weeks into February so all right around Valentine's Day will be starting those assessments both for reading and Math and Science and 8th grade but that's pretty much all that's going on right now as always do as the Middle School principal I just want to remind all the Paris the more students practice things the more they improve if we want our students to get on grade level for reading or in math a lot of that has to do with how much they're practicing so the more we can encourage them to read it home the better i a all of our Middle School families and students if they want to practice math at home they can do i-Ready which allows them to work on their level and it allows the parents to see right away did they or didn't they pass the test so that must be all I'm always going to talk about practice wait to see you tomorrow and if there's any questions we can go over those otherwise we can move on to the next item on the agenda thank you all thank you very much mr. cost down and so I know that mister Ties on the agenda I'm not sure if he was able to jump in they do have high school professional development today but just some quick updates are sports teams are continuing to thrive we just won another basketball game or basketball teams are either tie for first place or insult possession a place that's super exciting for our Sports programs and we're continuing to grow and we're continuing to build on our academic programs are really excited about the high school and really just trying to support as much as you can this is a short meeting as I shared next month as ssac members be ready have your coffee whatever you need next month meeting is going to longer one time because we will be doing our El Cap progress update as well as providing some data updates on budget at cetera so that's the only update for El Cap today just be prepared for a longer meeting I talked about this back in just this is going to be shorter than any questions message they see the main thing is that El Cap meeting next month is an important one and I want to make sure we're all they are ready to be engaged so now pass it to see must have been enough for any public comments and then we'll we'll end it with Ms Mart with the adjournment of the meaning of wanted to open it up and see if that's open it up for any public comments close give me city of God so this is the type of public comments I know that we have some participants today for the Publix for some parents are there thank
