COMPOSITE SCHOOL PLANWest Bountiful Elementary - SY 2021Principal Regina Oechsle |
Educators, parents, and community members work together to create a successful educational experience for each student.
West Bountiful Elementary students are problem solvers, innovators, critical thinkers, and leaders, in not only our community, but also our world! Every student, every day will wonder, think critically, collaborate, and communicate their thoughts in all subject areas and in all grade-levels. Our classrooms strive to create students who are self-motivated, competent, lifelong learners who persevere even when tasks are challenging. As the roles of science, mathematics, and technology grow in our society, education must prepare students to thrive in a highly complex world. West Bountiful Elementary will provide a challenging learning environment in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math, which maximizes individual potential and ensures students are well equipped to meet the challenges in the world around them.
West Bountiful Elementary is a suburban community with a rural feel. West Bountiful City is an incorporated city. It is located on the west side of Bountiful separated largely by the interstate. It is near convenient shopping and large residential areas yet has property that is zoned for horses and other livestock. It is located at 750 W 400 N, West Bountiful, Utah.
Our student body comprises kindergarten through 6th grade. We have 680 students. Our enrollment reflects an ethnic population of 87% Caucasian and 13% minority population.
The West Bountiful staff includes 25 certified teachers, 31 support staff, and 2 administrators.
Our school population reflects 19% economically disadvantaged (6% reduced lunch, 13% free lunch, and 81% paid lunch). We have a high percentage of two parent families and many stay-at-home mothers. This contributes to a high parental volunteer base.
Our new school building is currently under construction and slated to be finished spring of 2020. Our construction is on site and our entire black top is missing so recess has become a challenge. Our school population continues to grow. We currently have three advanced learning classes (grades 4-6). This program draws students from other communities in the Bountiful/Centerville area. With the added programs and continued community growth, our traffic concerns require close collaboration with our local law enforcement.
West Bountiful Elementary has a very active PTA. They provide various enriched programs- Fun Food Fridays, fine arts Fridays, Meet the Masters, and Junior Achievement. They also provide an annual school play, and many other activities that bring the community together. Our PTA continues to actively support our school staff with countless volunteer hours.
Growth and learning is promoted year-round at West Bountiful Elementary. We promote learning through PTA Sponsored Summer Reading Programs and a focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Math) integration in grades K-6. PLTW (Project Lead the Way) supports STEM and project based learning in grades K-6.
With the continued support of our community, and Land Trust funds, our school plan includes expanding technology: each teacher has an iPad Air, each grade level team has a classroom set of either iPad Airs, or Think pads. Our long-term goal is to be 1:1 with each student having their own device.
We have strong before and after school programs. Our choir is heavily involved in singing at community events. We have a large 6th grade orchestra which meets before school. We have two robotics clubs- Lego Mindstorms and Vex Robotics.
This year, we had students compete at the district level for Spelling Bee, STEM Fair, Geography Bee and Olympiads.
Our Science RISE scores were 8% above the district average and 12% above the state average.
Our Math RISE scores were 4% above the district average and 10% above the state average.
For the 2017-2018 school year, in 1st grade 76% of students were proficient on their Language Art's CRT. For the 2018-2019 school year, our 1st graders increased to 82% proficiency.
For the 2017-2018 school year, in 1st grade 83% of students were proficient on their Math CRT. For the 2018-2019 school year, our 1st graders increased to 86% proficiency.
According to the 2019 Data Gateway student growth report, in grades 4, and 5, our students were not showing enough growth in the area of mathematics. In grades 5, and 6, our students were not showing enough growth in the area of Language Arts. To increase, both in proficiency and growth, we must provide professional development for classroom teachers in the areas of language arts and math, continue our Professional Learning Communities with a focus on reading comprehension and mathematics, utilize common summative assessments, and use data to drive instruction. We also will use Land Trust money to hire and provide tier two language arts and math interventions for identified struggling students. To assist our teachers in teaching mathematics we purchased the Go Math Curriculum K-6. By increasing the amount of technology at our school, these tools will help our transition into instructional agility and student personalized learning. We are excited to continue project-based learning at our school with the implementation of Project Lead the Way.
Increase the percent of K-3 students scoring “at/above benchmark” on middle of year DIBELS by 2% (from 74% to 76%).
Did Not Meet Goal (comments required)
While we did not meet our goal (72% of our students were at/above benchmark), we did achieve above district level growth in grades K, 1st, and 3rd.
Increase the number of students with SAGE proficiency in mathematics from 56% to 58%.
Did Not Meet Goal (comments required)
While we did not meet our goal of 58% proficiency, we did increase to 57%.
