MVS Goals
Comprehensive Needs Assessment
Each public school completes a CNA each year in order to receive federal aid through Title Grants. The CNA identifies a school's strengths, weaknesses, and areas for improvement.
Our 2024-2025 Goals are:
Goal 1: Math Proficiency Level: By June 2025: The percentage of K-5 students meeting their projected growth target will increase from 59% to 65% (spring to spring) as shown on end-of-year NWEA assessments.
Goal 2: Reading Proficiency Level: By June 2025: The percentage of K-5 students meeting their projected growth target will increase from 30% to 40% (spring to spring) as shown on end-of-year NWEA assessments.
Goal 3: Student Attendance- By June 2025: Mountain View’s average daily attendance will increase from 93% to 95% (spring -spring).
Goal 4: PBIS - By June 2025: Increase our baseline score on the Positive Behavior and Intervention Supports SAS-4 (self-assessment survey) on School Wide PBIS components identified as “in place” by staff from 24% to 50%.
Tier I Additional Target Supports and Improvement under Every Student Succeeds (ESSA).
We received notification from the State of Maine Department of Education in May that because one or more of our populations experienced challenges across all indicators, MVS was identified and we were placed in the Tier I status for a minimum of three years. This information was based on the 2022-2023 data. One of the indicators for this status included “Chronic Absenteeism”. Based on 151 students we currently have eight students who are chronically absent having missed 10% of the school days. While we don’t want students coming to school sick, we do want students and parents to understand we can’t teach students who are not in school. I will be reporting out on attendance weekly as well as communicating to parents via email, phone calls, and letters. We will begin random days of attendance recognition where a class might earn extra recess, extra PE or art class, maybe a special place to eat lunch, the list is long of how we want to share our pride in our Cougars having good attendance, improving their attendance, along with improving their academic performance!
