Student Growth Goal Statement
·  (SMART=Specific and Strategic; Measureable; Action oriented: Rigorous, Realistic, and Results-focused; Timed and Tracked) / For the 2013-14 school year, the attendance rate for SHS as measured on the ODE AYP report card will increase from the current 88.5% to at least 92% (deemed Outstanding) The rate will then remain Outstanding and/or increase in subsequent years. The students identified as “chronically absent” will increase the number of days present by at least 8 days during the 2013-14.
Types of Measures/Evidence for SLG
·  Category 1 is mandatory for one goal if available. You must use a second measure of assessment if data is not available by June.

Strategies

After 5, non-school related absences from any 1 class period, the classroom teacher will place a personal phone call to the parent/guardian. After 10 absences, the school counselor will make the phone call, with a truancy letter explaining policy mailed home by administration. After 15 absences, there will be a scheduled meeting involving parent/guardian, school principal, and the district’s truancy officer. An attendance contract will be put into place. Further absences will affect grade/credit status.
