Clawson Predictions
Clawson Data
ELA and SS are on track with rest of county/state
11th grade scores are low...due to test fatigue/motivation
8% proficient in Science in 4th grade
Math scores lower than county/state in grades 4, 6-8, 11
3rd grade math scores outperformed reading scores
Middle of the pack for Oakland County
Implications/Questions:
4th scores due to what?
Time spent on curriculum?
Hands-on vs. reading based....how do we bridge?
Testing fatigue (students took Sci last in 14-15)
Support for new students in HS? How do we assess them coming in?
Communicate purpose of the test to students/parents...why do I care?
iReady -
Data seems to correlate to MStep
Students in HS not taking it seriously
Do we need to give it in 12th grade?
Can students test out in other grades?
District-wide culture surrounding iReady...how can other teachers at MS/HS support it?
How do we systematically use scores with students to make it meaningful? Should
students chart scores? Set goals? Data binders? (include PE, art, music)
Next Steps:
Share data about assessment with community, parents, teachers
Figure out how to make data meaningful to students (Data binders/goal setting)
El Salvador:
Our students are probably not considered refugees...due to court involvement
Have to have a connection or a sponsor to get in US
Have had a traumatic experience getting to Michigan; some in MS/HS have made the
journey alone
They need to work while here...need $ to send back, pay sponsors, legal fees
3.8 percent increase in foreign born population from 2009
