Board approves Baker Elementary 2025'1026 SPSA after site team cites EL gains and intervention changes
Summary
Baker Elementary presented its 2025'1026 School Plan for Student Achievement, noting English-learner gains and a restructuring of intervention staffing; trustees approved the plan, including an addendum correcting a published typo.
Baker Elementary's site team presented the school's 2025'1026 School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) and trustees approved the plan, including a desk addendum correcting a data typo.
Site presenters highlighted language-arts subgroup gains for English learners attributed to targeted speaking, listening and small-group interventions. The school described discontinuing a traditional single-teacher reading intervention model in favor of a flexible team composed of one credentialed teacher and two instructional aides running multiple concurrent reading groups so that three adults can be working with students in the intervention room at the same time.
Baker's presentation also covered alignment and consistency work across grade levels, an emphasis on student talk and academic vocabulary, and the use of common writing units and small-group instruction to increase rigor. The staff cited math-focused plans that include spiral review and manipulatives to support fluency and vocabulary.
The board moved and seconded approval of Baker's SPSA and addendum (the agenda packet contained a correction: an SED percentage referenced in the materials should read 40 percent, not 70 percent). Trustees approved the plan by voice vote.
