  44. The future for which we’re preparing our students… • In 2014, MPS students took 1,275 Advanced Placement Tests in 24 different subjects. • In 2013, the average ACT score of MPS seniors was 22.2. • More than half of our students go straight to college immediately after high school. • Nearly half of graduating seniors have participated in an occupationally-specific CT program, either at school, or through MNTC. • Most of our graduates will work in career fields that are still emerging.

  45. Table Exercise – Career Fields • Take a few minutes to think of all the careers that you didn’t choose. • Most common • Most unique • Newest • Oldest

  46. Curriculum Calendars & Pacing Guides • Help all teachers know what to teach & how long it might take, a suggested sequence for content, and an assessment schedule • Created & reviewed yearly by committees of teachers within each content area • Allow flexibility based on your students’ learning needs, but designed to help you “stay on track” in getting students prepared for assessments and the next grade level’s expectations • Find them online or get them from your coordinator or department head.

  47. Benchmark Assessments • Quarterly or Nine-Week Tests • Given in core content areas, grade 3 and up • Two week window at the end of each quarter (not 4th) • Site/Department will set exact date of administration • Benchmarks are designed to let you, your site, and the district know how your students are progressing toward spring state-assessment readiness. They are not a teacher-evaluation tool. The results help you make decisions about instruction and to help others make decisions about student testing arrangements and professional development.

  48. What Does It Mean to “Remediate”? • Remediation isn’t… • Teaching the same thing the same way again • Repeating the directions • Extra practice (including “re-doing” work without guidance or help) • Remediation is… • Changing the way you explain a concept • Breaking down content into smaller pieces • Providing learning/memory strategies along with content knowledge

  49. Why does it matter? • Only 40% of adults who dropped out of high school are even employed. • 75% of America's state prison inmates are high school dropouts. • The estimated cost to taxpayers of adult illiteracy is $224 billion per year. • The death rate for people with fewer than 12 years of education is 2.5 times higher than people who graduated.

  50. Early Risk Factors • Poor attendance • Disruptive behavior • Failing math or reading classes
