Title
APPROVAL OF SCHOOL IMPROVEMENT PLANS FOR SCHOOL YEAR 2023-2024

Description
Sarasota County School Board Policy states that the plan for each District school shall be approved annually and shall  be implemented as a new, amended, or continued school improvement plan.  The School Improvement Plans can be found at www.floridacims.org        

Gap Analysis
To close the gap, schools need to implement the area(s) of focus and action steps with fidelity, within the SIP, in order to improve student achievement and actively engage the community through the SAC.  The schools will have an area of focus on any student group below the 41% federal index.  The use of a problem-solving process will allow schools to progress monitor the attainment of goals outlined in the SIP.

Previous Outcomes 
Increase student performance in ELA, Mathematics, and Science closing the gap through implementation of system-level strategies and by measuring and tracking key performance.

Expected Outcomes 
Goals for the 2023-2024 school year include increasing proficiency for all students with a focus on student groups below the FPPI and decreasing the number of ATSI and CSI schools. 

Strategic Plan Goal

Recommendation
That the Board approves all School Improvement Plans as presented.
