Work with the teachers’ union and provide more resources for teachers so they can provide academic support for those students that need it. 

Work with the feeder schools and align their curriculum with the high school curriculum. Currently, there is no articulation plan in place with the surrounding middle schools. 

Require administration to present/support/implement evidence-based practices that have proven to be successful for students. It will be required for administrators to present these practices to teachers and monitor their implementation. Administrators must be required to move away from utilizing vendors and implement evidence-based practices. 

Reduce the number of vendors and use those resources for School Resource Officers and Truancy programs. Additionally, utilize those resources to create activities/programs that interest students that connect them to the building. Research has demonstrated that when students feel connected to the building, attendance rates increase. 

Create a plan that the district will provide after-school tutoring, by teachers, throughout the school year 6 days a week.
