Mission Statement: Believing in children, and expecting the best, the mission
of the Barbourville Independent School System is to promote academic excellence
and foster a love of learning ensuring that all our students will become contributing
members of society.
The Barbourville Independent
School District Planning Committee followed the board policy on district
planning to develop the Comprehensive District Improvement Plan. The plan maintains a focus on improving the
academic achievement of students with emphasis on two action components, which
are;
1. Gender/Socio-Economic Achievement Gap
2. Academic Performance
The CDIP Committee members
represented the following groups; district administrators, principal, teachers,
parents, students, and classified staff. The needs assessment process, aligned
with the Standards & Indicators for School Improvement, consisted of a
complete data analysis including analysis of the Kentucky Core Content Test
(KCCCT) data, No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Report data, CTBS, GRADE results,
STAR, ACT, Kentucky Continuous Monitoring Process Report, STI /Infinite Campus
attendance data, Safe Schools Report and a review of the current CDIP.
Achievement gaps were studied by stakeholders and determined through careful
analysis of subpopulation data.
The Implementation and
Impact Checks will be completed two times during the year. Staff will determine
the status of the activity and if and what impact it had on student
achievement. It will be determined if the activity needs to continue or be
adjusted. The end of the year status report will be held on May 8, 2008 at the
Barbourville Board of Education meeting. School board members, administrators,
parent, community and others will be invited to attend.
