There will be lesson plans, letter writing campaigns to troops and other ideas to use with our students.

Eric created sculpture made from bread of Marilyn Monroe. He creatively named it Marilyn Mon"roll" and received first prize.

· Congratulations to VSA's (Victory School of the Arts) Miles Yeung (PCO student) who placed 7th Overall for Mr. Teen Dance of America at the Dance Masters of America National Championship in New York City. Miles also placed 5th in Ballet and 6th in Jazz. We're so proud of you, Miles!

BOARD OF EDUCATION REGULAR  MEETING
Monday, Sept. 17, 2007

The Putnam City Schools Board of Education of Independent School District No. One of Oklahoma County, State of Oklahoma, met in regular session Monday, September 17, 2007 at 6:00 p.m. in the Board room at the Administration Building, 5401 NW 40th, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The agenda and meeting notice were posted on Friday, September 14, 2007 at 4:30 p.m. in accordance with 25 O.S. § 311.

Members present: Julie Jenison, president; Gail LoPresto, vice-president; Sue Sullivan, Melinda Bookout, and Jerry Cramer, members; Superintendent Dr. Jim Capps; Debbie Baldwin, clerk; and others.

ITEM #1 - Inspirational Message, Moment of Silence, and Pledge of Allegiance – lise finley.

Lise Finley, Hefner Middle School Principal, led in the Inspirational Message, Moment of Silence, and Pledge of Allegiance.

ITEM #2 – elementary and secondary API presentation by sue kuntze, assistant superintendent of elementary education, and melani mouse, assistant superintendent of secondary education.

Sue Kuntze, Assistant Superintendent of Elementary Education, and melani Mouse, Assistant Superintendent of Secondary Education, presented overviews of Preliminary Academic Performance Index (API) scores for district schools.

Mrs. Kuntze and Dr. Mouse stressed that the scores are preliminary but encouraging. Final API scores will only be available after schools and the district have double-checked the data, appeals have been considered by the state, and the state has accepted final scores.

API is a numeric score, ranging from 0 to 1500 that indicates school performance based primarily upon state-mandated tests but also upon other contributing factors to a school’s education success. This year, the API target scores required for schools to make Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) increased substantially. The target score for reading set by the state this year was 914, compared to 768 last year. The target score for math this year is 932, compared to 790 last year. By law, if a school as a whole, or if even one of 11 subgroups of students doesn’t meet API target scores on state tests, then the entire school does not meet AYP.

Mrs. Kuntze reported on preliminary API scores for elementary schools. Preliminary data shows total API scores increased at 12 elementary schools, while five others had scores well above the state’s target API score. The largest gain in the district was at Apollo Elementary, where this year’s total API of 1371 was more than 400 points above last year’s API of 913. The math API score at Apollo is 1390, compared to 936 a year ago, and the reading API score is 1465, just 35 points away from a perfect 1500 score and much higher than last year’s 907 API.

Preliminary data shows one elementary school did not make AYP. The reading API score of Hispanic students and math API score of ELL students at Central Intermediate School was below the state’s target scores. The district has appealed the ELL numbers. Because this is the first year for the school to not make AYP, the school will not be on the state’s list of schools in need of improvement.

Dr. Mouse reported that last year, every district middle school had their highest total API scores ever. This year, preliminary data shows two of the five middle schools again set new record high total API scores, while the other three middle schools showed a slight decline from last year.

Cooper Middle School’s total API is 1274 this year, compared to 1248 last year. Hefner Middle School’s total API is 1350, compared to 1340 last year. Western Oaks Middle School’s total is 1250, down slightly from last year’s 1263. Capps Middle School’s total API of 1187 is lower than last year’s 1222, and Mayfield Middle School’s 1174 is lower than last year’s 1236.

If preliminary data holds true, the only area in which any of the five middle schools will have failed to make AYP is the Hispanic reading rate at Mayfield Middle School. The target score is 914; the Hispanic reading rate at Mayfield is 852. Because this is the first year for the school to not make AYP, the school will not be on the state’s list of schools in need of improvement.

Preliminary data for high schools show them with their highest API scores ever. Each high school has not only its highest-ever total API score, but also their highest-ever API scores in reading and math.

Putnam City North’s total API is 1348 this year compared to 1272 last year. Putnam City High School’s total API this year is 1213, compared to 1110 last year. Putnam City West’s total API this year is 1164, compared to 1091 last year.

If final data ends up like preliminary data, the only area in which any of the three high schools will have failed to make AYP is the graduation rate at Putnam City West. Even that may change, since the district is appealing the state’s ruling.

ITEM  #3 – presentation on adlai e. stevenson high school visit by high school principals.

dr. Don Wentroth, Dr. Brian Chastain, and Buster Meeks presented information on their visit in Spring, 2006 to Adlai Stevenson High School in Chicago, Illinois. Since the visit, the three high schools have implemented interventions practiced by Stevenson High School.

Among ideas gained and now implemented by Putnam City high schools are concepts for advisory, collaboration, and tutoring strategies such as Flexible Friday’s and Hang Time. Adlai Stevenson High School is the original Professional Learning Community under Richard DuFour’s leadership.

ITEM #4 – PUBLIC PRESENTATION.

There was no public participation.
