Drayton Hall Elementary Report of Principal and School Improvement Council

A Message from our School Improvement Council:

11/07/12-1001109

Drayton Hall Elementary School, a Palmetto Gold recipient for the past three years, is part of the Charleston County School District. We are located in the West Ashley area of the City of Charleston. Our diverse Pre-K through 5th grade population of 846 students includes students from nine different countries. Our highlyqualified staff includes six National Board Certified Teachers and more than 64% advanced degree teachers. All staff members are committed to excellence through the reinforcement of a rigorous curriculum and high expectations for all students. Enrichment opportunities are provided through co-planning, co-teaching and itinerant teachers to meet the individual needs of all of our students. Drayton Hall Elementary is one of 4 pilot schools for the districts one-to-one learning initiative integrating iPads into daily instruction. Each student and faculty member has an iPad as an instructional tool. All classes are equipped with interactive SMARTBoards and at least two large-display computers. All students can participate in labs for music and computer instruction. The staff continuously trains in the use of technology and thinking maps curriculum. We have several faculty members who are technology instructors for district-sponsored classes that are available to all teachers in the district. In addition, students benefit from data-driven instructional planning through the use of Measures of Academic Progress (MAP) tests. At Drayton Hall Elementary, 98% of our teachers are actively-participating members of our PTA. Our PTA remains very involved in school planning by supporting staff development, providing materials to support instruction, and rewarding students for participation in the PTA-sponsored Reflections Program. Drayton Hall was recognized by our constituent district for meeting Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for the past 7 years. We are a Red Carpet school, a state award which recognizes our commitment to customer service. The staff and students participate in activities throughout the year to promote a healthy lifestyle. We have been recognized twice by the state as a Healthy School in all 8 areas of the Healthy School Index. Our school-wide discipline model: Safety, Property, Order, Respect, and Task (SPORT) provides monthly recognition of good citizenship and creates a safe learning environment. Students have the opportunity to participate as members of the following groups: Tennis, Roarin Recyclers Team, Drayton Hall Elementary Jumpers, Wee Deliver, Chorus, Reading Buddies, and our student produced Morning News Program. Students and staff participate in community service activities such as Pennies for Patients, Relay for Life, Red Ribbon Week (Say No to Drugs) and Jump Rope for Heart on a rotating basis. Fifth graders are involved in a number of school clubs designed just for them which include: Jumpers, Running Club, Student Council and Basketball. Drayton Hall also offers interactive before and after school care in the Kaleidoscope Program. A rigorous curriculum, collegiality, strong leadership, and clear goals with assessment define our success. At Drayton Hall Elementary School, Students Come First. John Cobb, Principal Theresa Owens, SIC President

Drayton Hall Elementary ESEA/Federal Accountability Rating System

11/07/12-1001109

In July 2012, the South Carolina Department of Education was granted a waiver from several accountability requirements of the federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). This waiver allowed SC to replace the former pass/fail system with one that utilizes more of the statewide assessments already in place and combine these subject area results with graduation rate (in high schools) to determine if each school met the target or made progress toward the target. This analysis results in a letter grade for the school rather than the pass/fail system of previous years. For a detailed review of the matrix for each school and districts that determined the letter grade, please use the following link: http://ed.sc.gov/data/esea/ or request this information from your childs district or school. Overall Weighted Points Total Overall Grade Conversion Index Score 90-100 80-89.9 70-79.9 60-69.9 Less than 60 Grade A B C D F 98.4 A Description Performance substantially exceeds the state's expectations. Performance exceeds the state's expectations. Performance meets the state's expectations. Performance does not meet the state's expectations. Performance is substantially below the state's expectations
