Demographics Strengths
Enrollment at Valley Oaks has increased over the past several years.
Valley Oaks is a community school where many families walk or bike to school every day.
Parent engagement continues to increase and is inclusive of all families
Problem Statements Identifying Demographics Needs
Problem Statement 1: Student attendance rates have slowly increased, but not at the desired rate. Root Cause: Families often take family trips during the school year, which leads to excessive unexcused absences.
Problem Statement 2: The number of students receiving special education services has increased, leading to a need to staff our campus differently. Root Cause: We are learning more about early identification of students with disabilities as well as tracking progress through the RTI processes.
Student Achievement
Comprehensive Needs Assessment
Student Achievement
Student Achievement Summary
Valley Oaks Elementary School implements a rigorous curriculum that is aligned to state standards and continuously revised to produce and prepare all students towards T-2-4 district goals. Students will master rigorous academic standards to ensure college and career readiness. We believe campus administrators and teachers are members of the campus’ Professional Learning Committees (PLC). PLC in SBISD is an ongoing collaborative team process used to establish a school-wide culture that develops teacher leadership explicitly focused on building and sustaining school improvement efforts.
A top priority in SBISD is literacy. Students receive the opportunity and skill set to experience meaningful literacy experiences that are rigorous and engaging. With their peers, students in SBISD listen, speak, read and write through the content areas with a commitment that they will become lifelong readers and writers. SBISD is driven by standards, focused on strategies, differentiated, and guided by student data. Numeracy is also a top priority in SBISD. Our goal is to provide academic experiences that build confident and creative mathematical thinkers. Students identified for special education (SPED) services or as Emergent Bilingual/English Learner (EB/EL) are also a district focus.
Below is a summary of the STAAR Redesign Reading passing rates for 2023 (Baseline Year):

Student Achievement Strengths
Over half the students tested on state exams reached mastery level achievement in both reading and math. A significant number of our Emergent Bilingual students (86% in reading; 80% in math) met expectations on those assessments. A large amount of our Special Education students (63% in reading; 63% in math) met expectations on those assessments.
Problem Statements Identifying Student Achievement Needs
Problem Statement 1: Academic performance for EB students has improved, but continues to lag behind the "all" numbers. Root Cause: Students entering school with exposure to multiple languages may struggle with the vocabulary on STAAR tests.
Problem Statement 2: Academic performance for students receiving special education services are significantly lower than those not receiving special education services across all grade levels and content areas. Root Cause: There is a lack of training for special education staff on grade level TEKS and curriculum, meaning they are not properly equipped to scaffold and/or modify grade level content during in class support time.

Staff Recruitment and Retention Strengths
Valley Oaks is a highly sought after location for employment. We are able to recruit and hire experienced teachers when vacancies arise. The school’s reputation of high performance and opportunities for growth and development of teachers and staff mean we have a deep pool of candidates from which to pull.
Problem Statements Identifying Staff Recruitment and Retention Needs
Problem Statement 1: Valley Oaks Elementary is experiencing more teacher turn over than is typical for the school. Root Cause: The growing demands of teaching, teachers reaching retirement age, teachers leaving the field of teaching for another profession, and a feeling of little support both emotionally and financially.
Problem Statement 2: Providing teachers with substitutes for planning and collaboration has been challenging due to funding. Root Cause: With reduced campus budgets, the campus has limited funds to provide teachers with extra supports during the instructional day for planning and collaboration.
Family and Community Engagement
Comprehensive Needs Assessment
Family and Community Engagement
Family and Community Engagement Summary
FAMILY ENGAGEMENT
Valley Oaks Elementary School provides a sustained and strategic focus on educating, engaging and empowering families that are aligned with the SBISD Family E3 framework, focusing on building the capacity of families and staff to work together for student academic success. The Share a Smile Customer Service commitments are embedded into the Family E3 expectations, emphasizing the importance of customer service at our campus. The campus Translation and Interpretation Procedure asserts our commitment to provide families with information they can understand. Families are invited to attend campus and district events. The Family E3 team conducts an annual needs assessment with our campus to determine family engagement strengths and areas of support.
COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Valley Oaks Elementary School works closely with the SBISD Community Engagement Division to support meaningful, strategic two-way engagement of families, community members, partners, and volunteers. The district traditionally has a large and very committed network of partners and 12,000+ volunteers. During the summer, the Community Engagement team conducts a needs assessment with our campus to determine community engagement strengths and areas of support. We welcome and value volunteers who serve on our campus as mentors and tutors to support student success.
Family and Community Engagement Strengths
Valley Oaks continues to benefit from the supports of our fantastic PTA. The PTA funds multiple instructional positions on our campus including interventionists and a full time counselor. We have a high number of parent volunteers. We host many community events on campus including Jamboree, Patriotic Singalong, Go Texan Day, World Feast Day, and Field Day.
Problem Statements Identifying Family and Community Engagement Needs
Problem Statement 1: Balancing high levels of community involvement and participation while ensuring the safety and security of our building is challenging, especially during school-wide events. Root Cause: Signing all visitors in through Raptor, checking IDs, and restricting visitors to one entrance and exit requires a great deal of manpower. When multiple grade levels have events on the same day this creates staffing challenges, which is compounded when technology does not work as expected.
Problem Statement 2: No mentoring program for children in need of adult support as well as very few Reading Buddies for students in need. Root Cause: During the pandemic our mentoring program stopped and was never restarted. We also have a low number of Reading Buddies that have signed up to help at Valley Oaks.
