TSSA Plan/Budget 2023-2024
Total Allocation: $109,772
Plan will be adjusted according to the actual allocation of money.
TSSA money will be spent in alignment with Ashman Elementary School Trust Land Goals.
Trustland Goal #1
The Ashman Elementary goal is to ensure that we meet the needs of all students in Reading and Language Arts through a high quality instructional model. Instructional Assistants will provide the support needed to focus on targeted instruction to help all students to either show adequate growth or proficiency based on spring Acadience data.
Instructional Assistants will work with teachers to assist with differentiated instruction using systems for prevention, intervention, and accelerated learning to address individual student learning styles needs. They will also complete weekly progress monitoring using Acadience for at risk students. Instructional Assistants will work with students individually and in small groups to focus on specific target skills and objectives that students still haven’t mastered. (Assist teachers in various capacities)
With our goal being that every child will leave Ashman Elementary performing on or above grade level in reading and math, certain tools will need to be in place . Teachers need tools to help with classroom instruction; Really Great Reading, A-Z Learning, IXL software and ESGI are research based programs that help gather data to drive decisions and help provide the foundational reading skills that improve word-level reading, improved reading accuracy, and an increased reading rate and math skills. We want to create a strong reading foundation that will result in better comprehension, an ability to tackle complex content in the areas of reading and math.
Standard Based Report Cards and Communication folders are used as a communication tool with parents. Report cards are prepared for parents 3 times a year to keep parents up to date on student academic progress. Communication folders allow materials to go home to parents each week.
