EAST SAC COUNTY MS BOARD REPORT January 2014 Curricular departments at the MS will continue to study standards based reporting (SBR) for the second semester. There is a group of 5 MS staff attending a 2 day conference in Des Moines on the topic, and this is a growing trend nationally and within our state. As a review, SBR is a method of communicating detailed student performance and growth on the content standards, benchmarks, and concepts being taught/learned in each class this falls right in line with Iowa Core and Concept Based Teaching and Learning. Although the initial plan is to continue to utilize an overall grade for performance and recording, there is greater detail with SBR about how a student is performing according to grade level expectations within each class concept/standard. The Schedule Committee continues to meet about next years schedule. The PBIS Committee is initiating Pride Cards to be sent home to parents whose students have shown commitment to our schools PRIDE expectations. The Initiative committee is working on the development of a more systematic instruction for vocabulary at the MS as this plays a key role in fluency, comprehension, and testing performance. The Data Committee continues to look at student performance data (particular focus in reading), and how that information should impact our instruction in the core as well as in interventions. Based on the data we have seen, several adjustments have been made in instruction that have allowed us to see recent gains in activity as well as performance with our reading intervention program (Achieve 3000).
MS basketball seasons are wrapping up and wrestling is beginning. MS student council updates: Not much for a student council update from me other than they are in the planning of a Valentines Dance and potentially utilizing the Sac Rec Center for the event.

Classroom activity of the month: Mrs. Engel will be present at the board meeting to talk about STEM initiatives in the science classroom.
