* Some of our students are now using e-Reader devices, so a gradual decline in the "Total Books Circulated" is predicted to continue.
However, we saw an increase this year of library patrons!
** 2011-2012 is the first year with the Automated Patron Counter; all other years were only estimates. February, 2012 and February 2013 Automated Patron Counter stopped working for a couple of weeks, so some estimating involved during those two weeks..
Horizon Library now has over 350 Fiction and NonFiction eBooks in the online catalog which can be accessed via any electronic device with
Internet access.
District Goal: Develop instructional practices to ensure
individual student success
Horizon Goal 2: Students will answer 60 facts correctly
in one minute or will demonstrate a 50% increase in
multiplication fluency measured by the timed fluency test.
Objective 1: Following a baseline
assessment, students engage in
fact review at least 1 time per week.
A timed test will be administered one
time per month. Students will graph
their improvements.
Objective 2: Teachers will
differentiate for learners who
demonstrate proficiency and
for learners who are not
demonstrating growth.
Results: Results indicated that classrooms with consistent fact review
and student charting showed an increase in fluency.
District Goal: Align instructional practices with data
Horizon Goal 3: Teachers will engage in data discussions
and coaching opportunities to refine their instructional
practices and differentiation strategies.
Objective 1: All teachers will receive training in using MAP and other
sources of classroom and school data as measured by documentation in
grade level team meeting minutes. This information will be used to tier
students as part of RtI process.
Results: All grade level teams participated in a 4 week training
regarding RtI. Teams also received instruction from BPS technology
department regarding use of MAP. One team meeting per week was
dedicated to the discussion of data, instructional decisions, and RtI.
