# **[PART III - SUMMARY]{.underline}**

Holy Name of Jesus School is located in Indialantic, Florida, which is
on a mile wide barrier island that separates the Atlantic Ocean from the
Indian River. This area is called Florida's Space Coast and the
community would be considered upper middle class.

School tradition is strong. There are many teachers and parents of
students who themselves attended Holy Name. The enrollment has increased
over 300% in the last ten years. The retention rate has risen from 48%
in 1992 to 99% in 2002. There are twenty-eight classrooms including a
music, art, science lab, technology lab, clinic, and resource room.

The strength of the school is its Catholic identity and its capacity to
meet the needs of all its students. Programs exist for students who are
developmentally delayed and learning disabled, as well as for students
who are gifted. HNJ provides for special learning needs with a resource
teacher, child psychiatrist, school psychologist, Title I remedial
teacher, school nurse, speech pathologist and gifted program.

All classrooms are learning centered communities that enable students
and teachers to construct their own knowledge using active and discovery
learning individually or in groups. In addition, every student has the
opportunity to participate in a wide range of social and athletic
activities. Because of this variety of learning opportunities, Holy Name
is meeting its vision / mission statement to provide a child-centered
environment in which the personal, spiritual, academic, and emotional
needs of each child are met.

Other strengths include:

-   The students at HNJ achieve at a high academic level as evidenced by
    standardized test scores.

-   The faculty is well trained, dedicated, nurturing and enthusiastic.

-   The students are well behaved, drug free, have a strong self-concept
    and are prepared to be leaders.

-   The administration is collaborative involving all stakeholders in
    decision making, caring, dedicated, versatile, innovative and
    continually seeking ways to improve the school.

```
-   The parents and community have donated close to two million dollars
    to the Education Endowment Fund since 1990 and volunteered over
    11,000 hours in the school last year.

HNJ is unique because not only has it grown by over 300% over the last
ten years while keeping its small school motto "Family of Friends"
alive, but has won six national awards:

-   U.S. Department of Education Blue Ribbon Schools Award 2001

-   U.S. Department of Education and NAESP National Distinguished
    Principal 2001

-   NCEA Southeast Regional Distinguished Principal 2001

-   NCEA Distinguished Parent Partnership Home and School Award 2000

-   National Association of Boards of Catholic Education Outstanding
    School Board Award 2000

-   Innovations in Technology Award 1999, *Today's Catholic Teacher*

Holy Name of Jesus School is recognized as a leader among its peers.
School, family and community collaboratively work to best meet the needs
of our students. Together, we provide the best educational opportunities
possible for our children and meet their individual needs.

**[PART IV INDICATORS OF ACADEMIC SUCCESS]{.underline}**

1.  **Report the school's assessment results in reading and mathematics
    for at least the last three years for all grades tested using either
    state tests or assessments referenced national norms at a particular
    grade.**

All students in grades 2-8 take the Iowa Test of Basic Skills (ITBS),
which is referenced against national norms. Riverside Publishing
publishes the ITBS. Students with individual education plans for
specific learning disabilities take the test in a small group setting,
untimed and some have reading support. These students' scores are
individual and not included in the group scores. All other student
scores are included in the group scores reported at the end of this
document. The eighth grade scored above the 90^th^ percentile in the
nation in both reading (83) and math (79) in 2002.

**2**. **Show in one-half page how the school uses assessment data to
understand and improve student and school performance**.

In addition to the examination, assessment, and implementation of
current research, the collection of data on the specific performance of
our students allows us to measure student improvement. The ITBS and
Performance Assessments provide this data. We use the data to revise and
improve our educational program and to determine individual or school
strengths and weaknesses. An item analysis is one of the reports
provided with the test results. We use this analysis to see how HNJ
compares with other schools in the Diocese, the state and the nation. We
do an in-depth study of skill levels and individual skills mastered and
the results are shared with the faculty. If the results show weaknesses,
meetings with individual teachers are held to decide what actions should
be taken. Data will influence decisions concerning curriculum, sequence
of concepts, student ability placement, textbook and material purchase,
and if necessary, teacher placement.

-   In 2001 the Math Department Chairperson did an analysis of the
    school's math scores on the ITBS test of basic skills. The weakest
    skill area was 3^rd^ grade with a score of 62. We met with the third
    grade teachers and decided to supplement the 3^rd^ grade math
    curriculum with practice material on the identified skill areas. The
    new material was used at the beginning of the school year. As a
    result, the math score in October 2002 increased to the 77^th^
    percentile. We also saw an overall increase in student's math scores
    3^rd^-8^th^ grade from 2 - 10 percentiles as a result of using the
    analysis to look at the math skills and curriculum school wide.

**3. Describe in one-half page how the school communicates student
performance, including assessment data, to parents, students and the
community.**

To assess the whole child, as in educating the whole child, a variety of
criteria must be used to measure their growth and development, to select
learning objectives and procedures, design or choose instructional
materials, and to create a positive learning environment. The student's
performance is communicated on a daily basis through observations,
performance assessments, student portfolios, cumulative writing
journals, short answer and essay tests, quizzes, oral presentations,
homework and class participation.

The school regularly communicates assessment results to the community by
presentations at the Home and Schools meetings, open houses and
orientations, publication of the scores in the School's Annual Report,
The Echo (school newsletter), the Parish Bulletin and HNJ Herald
(parish) Newsletter.

Meetings are held with teachers so they can correctly interpret scores.
Parent conferences are held to help the parents interpret their child's
scores. The administration, along with the school counselor, is always
available to explain test results on a group or individual basis.

Parents receive four computerized interim reports and four report cards
a year as well as standardized test results. Parents of students with
special needs receive weekly communication. Communication with all
stakeholders promotes understanding of the school's progress in meeting
its educational standards.

**4. Describe in one-half page how the school will share its successes
with other schools.**

Holy Name of Jesus School has won six national awards in the last four
years and is very active in sharing its success with schools in the
Diocese, in the county and in the nation. For example:

-   The Middle School Team has presented at several Diocesan inservice
    seminars to share their best practices to help other schools plan
    and implement academic excellence.

-   The Principal, recognized as a Nationally Distinguished Principal,
    is an adjunct professor for a local university and teaches three
    M.S. in Education courses.

-   The Administrative Team has facilitated workshops both locally and
    nationally in the area of alternative assessments, inclusion and
    hiring talented teachers; also, they act as consultants when people
    e-mail or ask questions on implementing the ideas in their own
    school.

-   The School Board, nationally recognized in 2000, conducted school
    board training for schools in nine counties of Central Florida and
    nationally for the NCEA.

-   The Home and School Association, also nationally recognized in 2000,
    is in consultation with the other county Catholic schools and helps
    them to initiate successful programs in their schools.

-   Holy Name of Jesus School has had their six national awards
    announced in the newspaper, some even made the front page, and on
    local and regional television stations as well as two national
    publications.

-   The Technology Advisor, nationally recognized in 1999, is a leader
    in her field and works with other schools to assess their technology
    program and help them develop their goals and objectives.

Our future successes will be shared with other schools with the same
level of professionalism.

## **[PART V CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION]{.underline}**

**1. Describe in one page the school's curriculum, including foreign
languages, and show how all students are engaged with significant
content based on high standards.**

Curriculum at Holy Name of Jesus School is based on Diocesan, State and
National standards, benchmarks and strands including The National
Council for the Social Studies, The English/Language Arts National
Standards and the NCTM and NSTA Standards.

At HNJ, all classrooms are learning centered where students are active
constructors of their own knowledge; value thinking is more important
than answers. There are opportunities for spontaneity in learning and
the freedom to explore and question individually or in small groups.
Students actively construct knowledge in a community that is supportive
of every child's learning. This organization of learning-centered
classrooms allows the students to achieve at a high level. The structure
of our school with its procedures and established routines allows
teachers and students more learning time.

The process for continuous curriculum renewal at HNJ is collaborative.
The present curriculum is evaluated annually to ensure it meets
National, State and Diocesan Standards and is in alignment with our
mission and goals. Last year the long-range Planning Committee made up
of administration, teachers, parents, students and community assessed
the HNJ academic program. Analysis of standardized test scores is used
to identify strengths and weaknesses of our programs.

-   Basic skills, Reading, English, Math, Science and Social Studies,
    are the foundation of the curriculum and are taught for and with
    understanding.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Learning in the academic disciplines is dependent on the teachers'
    recognition of diverse learning styles and understanding of recent
    brain research in order to help the learner as he/she constructs
    meaning. Whether it be visual, tactile, auditory or kinesthetic
    (multi-sensory), seating or social environment can be manipulated
    (cooperative learning groups, literature circles), modes of
    educational delivery can be interchanged to help the context in
    which students' learn and the what and how of the concepts
    (auditory, visual, discussion, peer teaching), and the employment of
    outside sources (SLD, Title I) or enrichment (gifted).

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Preparation for life in a complex and diverse society includes
    getting along with and understanding diversity (Black History Month
    projects and assembly, world cultures, speakers who are disabled,
    war veterans and immigrants) as well as encouraging usage of other
    languages and field trips. Diversity among the community as a
    resource is used to help learning. Technology is integrated into
    every subject area.

-   Development of skills valued in the workplace is accomplished
    through cooperative learning groups, oral presentations,
    collaborative problem solving, integration of technology and use of
    critical thinking skills in everyday learning. At different times
    during the year, community leaders come to speak, HNJ promotes
    research and presentations on careers as well as career shadowing in
    the 8^th^ grade. Junior Achievement, the teaching of economic life
    skills (checkbook, loans, and stocks) and studying printed material
    from local companies are used to enhance life skills.

-   Spanish is taught to all students K-8^th^ grade. The emphasis in the
    primary grades is phonics and oral expression in the basic language.
    In the intermediate grades the emphasis is in oral communication, to
    think and speak in every day situations using vocabulary related to
    school, family and culture. Middle School has Spanish three periods
    a week and completes High School Spanish 1 by 8^th^ grade.

Holy Name of Jesus' goal of "educational excellence" indicates the
commitment that all students will achieve to their highest potential.
The skills and information based curriculum in which children are active
constructors of their learning encourages all students to achieve the
highest academic standards expected of them and exemplary preparation
for the next grade level or high school.

**2. Describe in one-half page the school's reading curriculum,
including a description of why the school chose this particular approach
to reading.**

Our school mission plays an integral part in choosing new textbooks and
instructional material, as does current research on reading programs.
The reading curriculum is a literature-based framework with an
integrated approach to language. Curriculum is based on English/Language
Arts National Standards, along with Diocesan and State standards, and
benchmarks. Reviewers evaluated the new program with the \"Instructional
Materials Summary and Evaluation Guide\" from the Diocese which is
consistent with the \"Priorities for Effective Instruction Materials\"
published by the Florida Bureau of Curriculum and Assessment.

HNJ ensures that all of its students have the opportunity to achieve at
high levels in reading. Students are active constructors of their own
knowledge. The focus is on activities in which children generate and
test their own hypotheses, reflect on their own learning, and are
encouraged in the use of language for meaningful purposes. Examples are:

-   "Power Writing" has become a daily procedure. The children pick
    their own topic and write sentences/paragraphs to support this
    topic. These papers/ books are then illustrated. Written and oral
    reports on different countries and cultures, which is a
    self-regulated project of their own choosing are presented, either
    in-groups or individually.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Teachers look for students' interpretations of the material and help
    them edit and enrich them in our reading K-5, and literature program
    6-8. Learning circles are used to comprehend literature, each
    student having a different role each day in the circle to be the
    illustrator, editor or author.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Field trips to the Performing Arts Center to see popular stories
    performed on stage.

-   Weekly news broadcasts, reports on historical fiction, researched
    immigrant studies involve the students in higher order thinking
    tasks and oral presentations.

-   "Who Done It?" where students read, write and solve mysteries, and
    "Fun Brain" an educational website based on risk management and
    training systems and courtroom drama.

Goals, respect, critical thinking skills, and a celebration of diversity
are all unique characteristics of the HNJ Language Arts Program.

**3. Describe in one-half page one other curriculum area of the school's
choice and show how it relates to essential skills and knowledge based
on the school's mission.**

All social studies students (K-8^th^) work to high academic standards,
which is in direct correlation with our mission statement. Our
curriculum is extremely broad and follows the scope and sequence
criteria of the National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS), in
addition to meeting all requirements of the State of Florida Sunshine
Standards and the Diocese of Orlando (Florida) Curriculum Guide.

The ten thematic strands outlined by the NCSS are used in instruction at
all grade levels. Our teachers understand it is their responsibility to
foster understanding of our United States Constitution and students'
rights and responsibilities. Daily opening exercises include raising of
the flag, reciting The Pledge of Allegiance, and the singing the
national anthem or other patriotic song.

Students are encouraged, on a daily basis, to be active learners in
social studies and to understand the five themes of geography, including
location, place, human/environment interactions, movement, and regions.
Active learning includes excellent communication through use of oral,
written, and technology guided instruction. Learning activities are
illustrated by the following examples:

-   Cooperative group learning may include a field trip or welcoming a
    guest speaker when learning about Japan, continued study through
    internet research in the computer lab, oral presentation to
    classmates, including the history, geography, and cultures of the
    country, and assessment through the differentiated methods to assure
    that all students have mastered the curriculum to be learned;

-   Integration of curriculum includes connection with other subject
    areas through team-teaching for example, with the history of Islam;
    the science teacher explained that the Islamic people were the first
    to use diagnosis of symptoms of a disease to determine the proper
    medication; the art teacher reviewed the architecture of a mosque;
    for current events, students read the Arab News (online, English
    edition) on their classroom computers to become aware of the annual
    religious pilgrimage (hajj), and the music teacher taught religious
    chants and songs the Muslim people recite during the daily call to
    prayer.

**4.** **Describe in one-half page the different instructional methods
the school uses to improve student learning.**

Current knowledge is explored and decisions are made with a solid
understanding of the foundational beliefs and theories that drive
teaching, about how students learn, what they should learn, and how
teachers need to think and act to enable student learning. Current
knowledge is explored through studying National (NSTA, NCTM, NCSS),
State and Diocesan Curriculum Standards in the core curriculum areas.
Also reviewed are current research papers written for the Office of
Educational Research and Improvement and visiting various web sites like
the U.S. Department of Education, and teachers. net. Brain research
reminds us that we need to challenge, support and celebrate our
students' achievement.

Teaching practices are based on the premise that everyone can learn and
every classroom is learning-centered (learning by students, teachers and
community). Holy Name of Jesus School uses research-based instructional
strategies to improve student-learning including:

-   Empowering students to identify similarities and differences which
    enhances students' understanding and the ability to use knowledge,
    by comparing, classifying, and use of graphic organizers in reading,
    social studies, science, and math from K-8.

-   Guided practice is also used to help the student construct his/her
    own meaning using prior knowledge and experience.

```{=html}
<!-- -->
```
-   Cooperative learning and differentiated instruction with tiered and
    varied activities using a variety of criteria for grouping the
    students such as interest levels, literature circles, or prior
    knowledge.

-   Every classroom has a warm, caring and accepting atmosphere that
    challenges students. Learning and thinking are situation or context
    specific so the learning environment at HNJ shapes what the children
    do and know.

-   Summarizing, outlining and note taking skills are emphasized across
    the curriculum, writing and generating ideas (hypotheses) and
    testing conclusions in problem solving, investigation, invention and
    decision-making.

-   Every classroom uses the latest technology to enable the students to
    discover the answer or concept through research and student projects
    utilizing PowerPoint.

-   Student setting of their own goals and objectives to provide student
    ownership of learning and giving the students constructive feedback
    to adjust goals is used in 5th-8^th^ grade.

-   Homework and practice focused on mastering specific elements of a
    complex skill or process is used 3rd-8^th^ in major curriculum
    areas.

**5.** **Describe in one-half page the school's professional development
program and its impact on improving student achievement.**

Developmentally appropriate environments and teaching practices based on
current research to increase student learning are implemented at HNJ. On
the school level a curriculum committee was formed with a representative
from each school unit (preschool, primary, intermediate, and middle
school) and administration. Current research in student learning is
reviewed including information from ASCD, NAESP, NCEA publications and
web sites as well as the U.S. Department of Education. Professional
development is then planned in alignment with our mission statement, to
provide a child-centered environment, thereby including all students and
providing the education necessary to meet the individual student's
needs.

There are three Diocesan inservice days per year that support our
curriculum requirements with identified needs provided by the teachers.
Educational opportunities for teachers are strongly supported both
financially (\$14,500 spent on outside training) as well as by providing
a paid substitute whenever needed. Graduate studies are encouraged (HNJ
pays 50% of tuition) as well as training for teacher aides (T.E.A.C.H.
Scholarships). Once a month, HNJ dismisses students at noon to give
teachers the opportunity to continue their professional development.

The professional development emphasis for this year is Differentiated
Learning and Technology. The curriculum committee facilitated a
three-day workshop before the start of the school year and another half
day each month. The best part is that a curriculum expert is in each
unit level to help teachers implement the curriculum or instructional
changes. HNJ has a full time technology specialist to provide on-site
inservice to the teachers on a daily basis. Differentiated learning
enables the teachers to better meet the needs of the students because
they are grouped by interest level, prior knowledge, skill or content
area.

At the beginning of each new school year all teachers are asked to
identify their own personal and professional goals for the year. These
goals are discussed with the administration and a plan is put into place
in order to facilitate meeting these goals. Through two formal and
several informal observations these goals are developed, encouraged, and
evaluated to provide professional development and accountability.

There has been a direct correlation between the success of students with
special needs in the regular classroom and the two-year emphasis on
special needs teacher professional development. Performance assessment
scores have improved as a result of in-service emphasis on alternate
assessments. Inservice training pertaining to learning centered
classrooms and differentiated curriculum, where students actively
construct knowledge along with the teacher in a supportive community,
has been beneficial for the use of cooperative learning groups, student
initiated projects, self-assessment, and the concept of teacher as
learner, coach and listener. This has enabled students to achieve at a
higher level. The students have learned how to use basic skills to
identify and solve problems.

As a result of this integrated on going professional development program
our students have continued to score in the top 10 percentile on the
ITBS standardized test of basic skills.
