Family and Community Involvement in SIG Planning and Implementation
Describe how family and community members were involved in planning and will be involved in implementation on an on-going basis. Additionally, indicate the
methods used to inform the school community about SIG initiatives (e.g. posting on website, parent meetings, community forums, etc.).
Glassboro Intermediate School will involve its families and the Glassboro community in the Positive Actions implementation through the SIG Committee. The SIG
Committee will hold monthly meetings to continue educating, including, informing and surveying family members and the Glassboro community in its SIG PRESS
initiatives, progress, and goals. Other Family updates and programs will be planned by the Family/Community Liaison, with assistance from the Data Specialist. In
addition, GIS will schedule monthy walk-thoughs by the School Leadership Team. The SLT members will check in during the Postivie Action Exploratory locks to
understand what is happening in the classrooms as a result of our new SIG PRESS initiatives.
Family events will be posted on our school webpage as well as our district webpage. The Family/Community Liaison will also utilize local community groups as a way
to spread our goals and activities.

NGO TITLE: School Improvement Grant
SCHOOL NAME: Date: 6/14/2017
SMART Goal 1: By June 2018, 80% of students will be assessed at Level Z on the Fountas and Pinnell Benchmark: GIS’s 1:1 student technology initiative, created with
SIG PRESS requested funds, will assist in increasing student reading skills. Increased use of technology in a blended learning environment will assist in data collection and
analysis to identify academic needs in reading. New staffing positions created by the SIG PRESS Grant requested funds allows GIS to increase students’ social-emotional
well-being through the Positive Action Program, having a two-fold effect: increase student social-emotional well-being and hone student reading skills.
SMART Goal 2: By June 2018, 70% of students will achieve a 75% or higher on the summative math assessments: Glassboro District’s poverty rate is greater than 50%,
which directly correlates to low mathematics academic achievement. Our 1:1 technology initiative, achieved through the requested SIG PRESS Grant funds, will allow us
to level this playing field by giving technology access to all students. GIS will implement 1:1 computer usage in math classes to allow students better facility with
mathematical computer skills (math equation editor, online question types and tools). Staff hired through SIG PRESS Grant funds will increase students’ social-emotional
well-being through the Positive Action Program, increasing their desire to learn. Increased technology usage, along with proper coaching support, blended learning using
Education Elements of technology, all have shown to increase effective instructional time and data collection and analysis will help increase students’ math skills.
SMART Goal 3: By June 2018, students will have completed 80% of their Grade Level lessons in the Positive Action program: GIS needs to remodel its climate and culture
in order to increase student social-emotional well-being, community and family buy-in, and improve academic achievement. Glassboro District has a transient rate that is
higher than 30%. GIS will utilize SIG PRESS Grant requested funds to: train its teachers in the use of the Positive Action program; implement the Positive Action Program
in the Exploratory Block; complete fidelity checks; hold school-wide student Positive Action events and informational sessions for families and community; and to
survey all stakeholders.
SMART Goal 4: By June 2018, 100% of GIS students will be participating in the Exploratory Block and be utilizing technology in our blended learning 1:1 classroom
environment: GIS will transition to the Positive Action Exploratory Block and use Blended Learning in a 1:1 classroom environment to better promote 21st Century skills
and to effectively engage all students in our Positive Action social-emotional learning program. GIS will align this goal with SIG PRESS Grant requested funds by
implementing the Exploratory block; infusing technology into all classrooms; evaluating the Exploratory Block; remodeling our schedule to allow maximum time for the
Positive Action Exploratory Block; plan all Positive Action Exploratory Block curricula; review achievement data; conduct fidelity checks; conduct surveys for school
climate and social-emotional needs; obtain laptops, laptop cases, surge protectors, power adaptors, and laptop cases for 1:1 student technology in every class; assist all
teachers in infusing Positive Actions and technology.
How the Requested Funds are Aligned with the Requirements of the Selected SIG Model:
Salaries & Employee Benefits (200-100 & 200-200): In its implementation year, GIS increased staffing needs as requested in order to plan, train staff, and implement its
whole school reform model. We hired a Project Coordinator, Counselor, Positive Action Coach, Data/Tech Specialist, Family/Community liaison, and 4 SIG Committee
members. GIS will continue these positions through Year 1 Implementation. SIG PRESS grant staff will have school year duties, and then stipend summer duties.
Summer duties for Project Coordinator, Counselor, Positive Action coach, family/community liaison, and data specialist include reviewing exploratory block
supplemental staff training, reviewing data from previous school year, and developing Positive Action calendar for the following school year.
Purchased Professional and Technical Services (200-300) & Other Purchased Services… (200-500): Implementing a whole school reform model with the Positive Action
Primary Plan required not only additional staffing, but also the training that goes with it. In Year 1 Implementation, we requested funds for these trainings. By year 5,
Glassboro District will assume these costs.
Supplies and Materials (100-600 & 200-600) & Pre-Award Costs for Instructional Materials and Supplies (100-600): GIS will be purchasing materials using requested SIG
PRESS grant funds to: fulfill increased technology needs; assure students have yearly-replenished exploratory course materials; complete our 1:1 technology
initiative; implement Positive Action Exploratory Block; use the Positive Action whole school reform Primary Plan; provide more opportunities for family and community
engagement. Primarily, a 1:1 student technology initiative will begin in September 2017. Therefore, GIS will be purchasing 300 laptops and cases in order to implement
this initiative for Year 1 Implementation. We had split this purchase between the Planning Phase and Year 1 Implementation; however, we needed to move this entire
purchase to Year 1 Implementation. This time delay caused an increase in laptop cost of $80 per unit more than the original Planning Phase cost. We also requested
funds for surge protectors and power adaptors for each classroom to allow students to recharge laptops in school. Glassboro District, by year 5, will pay for these
supplies and materials.
LEA Administrative Costs (200-800): Glassboro District has request 2% of direct expenditures to cover the indirect administrative costs incurred for this grant initiative.
Our budget needs are directly connected to our priorities:
1. Establish a systemic school climate development program with the assistance of the Project Coordinator;
2. Teach students and staff Positive Action skills and strategies for improving behavior and social emotional learning through the support and advisement of the Project
Coordinator and the Positive Action Coach;
3. Forge partnerships with local health, mental health, and social services providers, with help from the Family / Community Liaison and the Counselor;
4. Provide family and community engagement activities planned and facilitated by the Family / Community Liaison with assistance from the Project Coordinator,
Counselor, and Positive Action Coach;
5. Increase student experience with technology through support and assistance from the Positive Action Coach;
6. Enhance student achievement.

3 - Effective InstructionTurnaround Principle:
Strategy 1: Instructional decisions,including student grouping,differntiation and targeting forinterventions are based onmultiple measures of data,including observations, CFU,interim and formativeassessments. Curriculum andAssessments are continuallyreviewed for alignment to stateassessments and CCSS. (3.5)
Performance We met our schoolwide targets for 2013-14.We also met our targets for White, Black,Hispanic, and Economically Disadvantagedsubgroups. However, SWD students' passrate was 24.1% yet our target was 38.6%.The targets for the 2017-2018 school yearrequire us to make significant growth forour SWD subgroup.
By June 2018, 80% of students will be assessed at Level Z on the Fountas and Pinnell Benchmark.
