Through the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) law and as a result of not meeting AYP (annual yearly progress), Limestone moved into corrective action during the 2010-2011 school year. The State of Illinois allowed all schools in corrective action last year to use the "Rising Star" software tool to complete their school improvement plan. This tool has proven to be invaluable in helping us write our school improvement plan. This year, Limestone was placed into "Planning for Restructuring" and on December 9, the Universal Leadership Team met to begin the planning process.
Universal Leadership Team (ULT) members are:
Parent, Robin Barnes
Parent, Sarah Celiberti
Special Education Teacher, Cheri Crebo
English Teacher, Jamie Kocher
Math Teacher, Jim Ryder
Guidance Counselor, Maureen Marvin
Guidance Director, Jon Hill
Assistant Principal, Zack Binder
Principal, Jill Warren
Assistant Superintendent, Denise Ryder
Superintendent, Allan Gresham
RESPRO Coach, Penny Murphy
Schools that are in the "Planning for Restructuring" stage must assess ten indicators (objectives). The team worked for two hours to determine our current level of implementation for each indicator (objective). In deciding the level of implementation, the team had to compile data and identify evidence to support each decision. This information will be entered into Rising Star and our progress will be monitored by ISBE and our RESPRO coach, Penny Murphy.
Limestone has made many changes the past two years and implemented many new initiatives as we strive towards improved student learning. All of these changes and initiatives can be found in our school improvement plan through Rising Star. Please use the form to the right to make a comment or ask any questions you may have.
Wishing you a joyous holiday season!
