The focus of Title I schools is to help students achieve proficiency on core standards, closing academic gaps that may exist. These efforts include providing targeted supports to at-risk students, building teachers' capacity through professional development, and strengthening parents' abilities in helping their children succeed.

Rolling Meadows 2023-24 Parent Compact
Back to IndexParent Engagement Policy
The staff at Rolling Meadows Elementary School has always regarded parental involvement vital to the success of students achieving academic success. All schools have their individual characteristics and needs; Rolling Meadows Elementary is no different. Within our community there are many diverse cultures, languages, and students with disabilities, and many more unique needs. We encourage parents and guardians to participate as school volunteers, in PTA, and on School Community Council.
It is the intent that our communication with parents, such as materials or flyers, will be written in an understandable and uniform format and, to the extent practicable, provided in a language that is understandable. If anyone would like clarification, interpretation, or additional support, please contact the office at 385-646-4990. Each parent or guardian is highly encouraged to work directly with the teacher of the child to resolve any concerns.
A school-parent compact has been developed by the Rolling Meadows Community Council, PTA, and staff. A copy is available on our website or by contacting the office staff. The purpose of the compact is to increase each child\'s academic achievement and to partner with families to support their growth.
Our policy includes specifically how the following activities will be accomplished:
Some ways in which parents will be kept informed and assisted in understanding expected state, district and school academic standards, assessment used, and student student achievement expectations.
- Thursday Folders
- Weekly Memo
- SEP Conferences (interpreters provided as needed)
- Information sent home from the District Office
- Email, DOJO, school Facebook page
- Blackboard messages
- Announcements on school marquee
Some ways materials and training will be offered to parents to help them work with their children to improve achievement, such as literacy, numeracy and technology training.
- Family Engagement Nights which support academics at home
- Individualized help as requested or needed
Some ways in which appropriate coordination of parent involvement activities can take place with various programs at the school. Some of the programs or activities may include the following: pre-school, after-school programs, parent information and resource centers, parental classes or any other program that might be beneficial.
- Weekly Memo
- Pastries with the Principal monthly
- Family Engagement Center and specialist
- Assistance with interpretation in Spanish when registering and at conferences
- Translation of notes and messages
Some ways parents and staff will work together, reach out, and communicate with each other to realize more fully the value and contributions that parental involvement adds to the success of the child\'s achievement growth and the success of the school.

School Title I Goals
Each year, our school conducts a needs assessment, reviews student performance data, and solicits input from various stakeholders in order to develop a meaningful Title I Plan. This plan is data-driven, evidence-based, and responsive to findings from data reviews, needs assessment findings, and stakeholder input. The school comprehensive Title I plan articulates how evidence-based strategies, action steps and milestones will support the goals listed below.
Goal One
At least 70% of students will reach typical or above typical progress on the end-of-year Acadience reading and math assessments.
Goal Two
On the 2024 RISE assessment, the lowest 25% of students will increase their growth from 2023 by 2% (of students who will have an student growth percentile of 40 or above).
Goal Three
At least 65% of students will respond favorably to questions about self-management skills on the spring 2024 Panorama survey.
Goal Four
By the end of the 2023-24 school year, there will be a 10% reduction in the overall number of recess referrals compared to the number that occurred during the 2022-23 school year.
Goal Five
PLC teams will effectively plan for student learning, using an agenda, quarterly planning document, data spreadsheet, and data analysis protocol to guide their work, during at least 90% of meetings held.
