At Centerville Elementary School, data reveals a strong correlation between chronic absenteeism and student wellbeing.  Both are critical to academic achievement, engagement, and long-term success.  Addressing these challenges requires a comprehensive approach that promotes a positive school climate, nurtures strong relationships, and removes barriers to attendance. By prioritizing both chronic absenteeism and student wellbeing, we are committing to creating a school culture where every student feels seen, supported, and motivated to attend and thrive.

Effective Tier I instruction is the foundation for academic success for all students. When instruction is delivered with consistency, aligned to grade-level standards, and responsive to ongoing data, students are more likely to achieve mastery and meet expected growth benchmarks.  As Centerville Elementary School works to close opportunity and achievement gaps, it is essential to reduce this variability and ensure every student receives equitable access to rigorous, high-quality instruction.

1. Review Typical and Stretch Growth progress during grade level data team meetings and SIT meetings.
2. Use i-Ready monitoring dashboard (school-wide and grade level) to identify students not meeting growth targets and adjust supports as needed.
3. Create student-friendly data trackers to promote ownership of progress.
4. Implement student data chats following each diagnostic to review growth goals and personalize next steps.
5. Recognize student growth through schoolwide shout-outs, growth certificates, and classroom celebrations.

Equity in education means ensuring that all students regardless of background, language, or starting point have access to challenging, enriching learning experiences that support their full potential. At Centerville Elementary School, increasing the percentage of students identified for gifted services and improving the language proficiency rate of multi-language learners are two critical levers to ensure opportunity and access for all.  This dual focus strengthens our commitment to ensuring every child has equitable access to high-quality learning experiences and is supported to grow and thrive academically.

2. Support general education teachers in embedding language objectives into content instruction across all grade levels.

4. Monitor language proficiency growth using local screeners, formative assessments, and progress monitoring tools. 
5. Use data to adjust instructional groupings and supports regularly through collaboration between ESOL and classroom teachers.
6. Provide schoolwide professional learning on culturally responsive instruction and supporting MLLs in content-area classrooms.
