The total amount requested was $819,000. In May 2002, the Coppell Education Development Corporation (CEDC) approved a grant in the amount of $693,000 to provide funding for sixteen and one -half (16.5) ESL teachers at $42,000 each. Funding for three (3) teachers was not approved because the teachers would be serving Valley Ranch Elementary students in the City of Irving. Amendment Request Based on anticipated payroll costs for the employees hired to fill the 16.5 approved positions, CISD will experience a shortfall of $39,429. In addition, due to greater than anticipated enrollment at CMS -West, the CISD hired an additional one -half (0.5) position to meet the educational needs of the ESL students at that campus. The cost of the additional one -half position is $20,413. Detailed information on the payroll costs for the teachers filling these positions is presented on the Sales Tax Grant Financial Report. This report reflects anticipated total payroll costs of $752,842 for these seventeen (17) positions. Our original estimates were made prior to assigning teachers to positions and prior to Board of Trustee approval of the 2002 -03 teacher pay schedules. Because CISD must pay teachers according to the degree held and years of teaching experience, the average cost per teacher will be $44,285. The amounts reflected above have been adjusted based on actual payroll costs for employees filling the positions. The numbers presented previously were based on estimates made prior to calculating actual payroll costs.

(REMINDER: Applications may NOT include more than one school fiscal year.) The English as a Second Language (ESL) Program is designed to develop proficiency in the English language for those students who enter the district as either non - English speaking or limited English speaking. Students are served as appropriate through various programs. Pre - kindergarten students are served by a half -day program five days a week. Students in this class are provided educational opportunities that promote language and literacy development in English. The pre - kindergarten program is housed at Austin Elementary School where two full -time teachers instruct sixty -three students daily. Students in grades kindergarten through fifth grade who qualify for the ESL Program are placed in a regular grade appropriate classroom. They then attend an ESL class during the school day for at least forty -five minutes. Classes are structured in order to meet the individual needs of the student learning English. Seven of the ten elementary campuses currently offer the ESL Program. Eight certified ESL instruct 326 students daily. Students at the middle schoollevel who are eligible for the ESL program attend classes at Coppell Middle School West. At this level students who are non - English speaking are enrolled in the Newcomer Center. Instruction in this center is focused on developing academic skills that will enable students to successfully enter mainstream classes. ESL classes are also offered to students who are designated as either at the beginner, intermediate or advanced level of language learning. Two full -time and one part-time certified ESL teachers instruct thirty -six students daily. Coppell High School also has a Newcomer Program that has nine students enrolled. This program is similar to the one at Coppell Middle School West in that it offers intensive instruction in English with the goal 2 of helping students gain the academic language necessary to be successful with the regular high school curriculum. Classes are also offered for students who are either at the beginning, intermediate or advanced level of language learning. There are three full -time certified ESL teachers at the high school. 3 Activities To Be Carried Out To Accomplish Strategy Positions Responsible Timeline Amount Requested Performance Indicator Maintain 15.5 ESL teachers.

COPPELL INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE Program Goal: To develop proficiency in English: social language, academic language, and cultural knowledge for students in grades PreK thru 12th. Strategy: Using CISD curriculum, based on the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for teaching ESL, teachers will provide instruction for approximately 476 students. 4 Program /Project Purpose /Need /Importance Description of the purpose of and the educational need and importance for the proposed program/activities, including the relevance to one or more of the approved funding areas promoting literacy, foreign language, and /or career technology for a skilled workforce. The face of American education is changing radically. Increasingly, students in K -12 classrooms come from families with diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds. English language learners face the dual challenges of mastering Eliglish and acquiring the academic skills and knowledge essential for a sound education and productive adult life. The challenge of educating English language learners successfully is magnified by the fact that these students are entering our classrooms at every grade level and at various times during the year. The purpose of the ESL Program in Coppell ISD is to provide limited English proficient students skills that will enable them to successfully complete their education. Students lacking sufficient literacy skills in English are at risk of dropping out of school. Planning effective English language instruction for ESL students cannot be done in isolation. It must be part of a comprehensive educational program that takes into account the students' social, educational, and personal backgrounds as well as their existing skills and knowledge bases. The linguistic and cognitive competencies that ESL students bring to school are a solid basis for building their future, in terms of educational and career success.

The following charts show the number of ESL students that are projected for the 2002 -2003 school year. It is expected that the number of pre- kindergarten students will at least be equal to the enrollment for this year. In order to accommodate the growth at the elementary level, three additional teachers are being requested. An additional middle school ESL teacher is requested to establish an ESL program at Coppell Middle School East. This would allow nineteen students to return to their home campus for instruction. 2002 — 2003 ELEMENTARY ESL PROJECTIONS Estimated Teaching assignments for 3 additional elementary positions.

Response A separate accounting fund will be created to account for the sales tax revenues received and the approved expenditures (program personal and/or equipment). Budget information can be provided which will be coded according to Texas Education Agency requirements. Monthly reports can be provided which will track actual expenditures, encumbrances and accruals as well as revenues received to date. The district will work with CEDC to provide appropriate documentation as deemed necessary in order for the district to receive the monies appropriated to fund the program positions approved by the CEDC. This can be done in advance for approved program positions as the sales tax dollars become available to the City or in arrears on a quarterly or monthly basis upon submission of appropriate documents substantiating the actual expenditure of dollars. Should there be any equipment purchases approved in the grants, the district will submit copies of purchase orders for approval by CEDC prior to issuance to the vendor. The district would prefer that CEDC remit sales tax dollars to the district as the purchase orders are issued so that the money is available for payment to the vendor upon receipt of the equipment. 10 The CISD business office will be available to discuss details of the above - described process with City officials or CEDC board members.

The total amount requested was $210,000. In May 2002, the Coppell Education Development Corporation (CEDC) approved a grant in the amount of $189,000 to provide funding for four and one -half (4.5) elementary Spanish teachers at $42,000. Funding for one -half (0.5) positions was not approved because the teacher would be serving Valley Ranch Elementary students in the City of Irving. Based on anticipated payroll costs for the employees hired to fill the four and one - half approved positions, CISD will experi rtfall of $10,473. Detailed information on the payroll costs for nine teachers filling these positions is presented on the Sales Tax Grant Financial Report. This report reflects anticipated total payroll costs of $199,473 for these employees. The estimated per- teacher payroll cost used in the original grant request was $42,000. This estimate was made prior to filling of these positions and prior to Board of Trustee approval of the 2002 -03 teacher pay schedules. Because CISD must pay teachers according to the degree held and years of teaching experience, the average cost per teacher will be $44,327. CISD requests that the Grant to fund four and one -half (4.5) elementary Spanish teachers for nine elementary campuses be amended to an amount not to exceed $199,473, an increase of $10,473. The amounts reflected above have been adjusted based on actual payroll costs for employees filling the positions. The numbers presented previously were based on estimates made prior to calculating actual payroll costs. 1. Elementary Spanish Program Grant Application 2.

(REMINDER: Applications may NOT include more than one school fiscal year.) A certified Spanish teacher will provide instruction to as many elementary students as possible. Instruction will occur approximately once every six days for a period of forty -five minutes. The program will operate during the regular school year. Activities are geared to the young learner's interests, developmental levels, and experiential background. They are designed to appeal to a variety of learning styles and to incorporate frequent opportunities for movement and physical activities. Learning occurs in meaningful, communicative contexts that carry meaning for the students. For the young learner these contexts include social and cultural situations, content instruction, games, songs, rhymes, stories, and experiences with art. The curriculum is organized around thematic topics that establish a balance between the basic goals of culture, subject content and use of the target language. Teachers incorporate the use of visuals, realia and hands on activities to encourage student participation and retention of the language. Instruction emphasizes a communicative approach to language learning rather than a grammatical approach. Grammar is presented through and for usage rather than in isolation. The elementary Spanish curriculum addresses the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for Languages Other than English and National Standards for Language Learning as well as reinforces the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills for English Language Arts. 2 Activities To Be Carried Out To Accomplish Strategy Positions Responsible Timeline Amount Requested Performance Indicator Recruit five elementary Spanish Teachers Program Coordinator April — August 2002 $210,000.

Strategy: Using CISD curriculum for teaching elementary Spanish, five Spanish teachers will provide instruction for approximately 3,114 students. 3 Prozram /Project Pu /Need /Importance Description of the purpose of and the educational need and importance for the proposed program/activities, including the relevance to one or more of the approved funding areas promoting literacy, foreign language, and/or career technology for a skilled workforce. The purpose of the Elementary Spanish Program is to begin the study of Spanish in 2 or 3rd grade in order to establish a foundation for continued language study in middle school and high school. Programs that begin in elementary school and continue uninterrupted through high school provide an opportunity for students to reach advanced levels of proficiency. Developing advanced language proficiency requires an extended period of time so that students have ample opportunities to experience and practice the language in meaningful context. Achieving proficiency in a foreign language takes from four to six years of study. The emphasis in today's foreign language education is on starting early and continuing study for many years to build communication skills in the language and cultural competence. Boundaries between countries and cultures are rapidly closing and giving way to a global community. Students growing up in this changing world will need to communicate effectively as adults. This means'being able to understand and speak more than one language. We currently lack an adult population who can communicate in foreign languages and understand other cultures and value systems. For those of us living in the southwestern part of the United States, it is increasingly important to learn how to communicate with the Hispanic population. Spanish was the most common language spoken at home according to the 1990 census. More than half (54 percent) of those who spoke a language other than English reported they spoke Spanish. This was a sharp increase over 1980, when 48 percent indicated that they spoke Spanish. Early indications 4 show that this trend should continue upon the release of the Census 2000 data which will be available in the summer of 2002. In Elementary Foreign Language Programs, Dr. Gladys Lipton highlights the results of research on children who study a foreign language in elementary school, these students: • show greater cognitive development in such areas as mental flexibility, creativity, divergent thinking, and higher -order thinking skills; • have an improved self - concept and sense of achievement in school; • develop a sense of openness to and appreciation of other cultures; • excel in authentic pronunciation; • show a better understanding of their own language and culture. If education is a means by which to prepare children for the world that they inhabit then we need to offer them an expansive curriculum as early as possible. This would include offering them the opportunity to begin the study of another language at an early age and to encourage them to continue that study for many years to come. 5 Prozram's Educational Objectives / Staff nit Needs / Implementation Plan / Number /Grade Level of Students Served Describe program including educational objectives Sr. goals, and differentiate between the two; demands on and expertise of present and proposed staff needed for implementation; and the number of students and the grade levels served by the proposal. Five teachers will be hired this spring in order to staff the Elementary Spanish Program in grades two through five. Each teacher will be responsible for the instruction at two elementary schools. During the 2002 -2003 school year the teachers will instruct approximately 3,114 students if program totally funded. The following is a list of educational goals and objectives for the Elementary Spanish Program. • Goal 1: Students will communicate in Spanish using the skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing. o Objective: Present information using familiar words, phrases and sentences. o Objective: Demonstrate an understanding of simple clearly spoken and written language. o Objective: Engage in oral and written exchanges to socialize and to provide and obtain information. • Goal 2: Students will gain knowledge and understanding of Hispanic cultures. o Objective: Participate in cultural activities that are representative of Spanish speaking countries. • Goal 3: Students will use Spanish to make connections with other subjects areas and to acquire information. o Objective: Use resources in the Spanish language and culture to gain access to information. 6 o Objective: Use the Spanish language to obtain, reinforce, or expand knowledge of other subject areas. • Goal 4: Students will develop insight into the nature of language and culture. o Objective: Compare and contrast the native language and culture with the Spanish language and culture. • Goal 5: Students will participate in communications at home and around the world using Spanish. o Objective: Use the Spanish language both within and beyond the school setting to communicate.

E . 06-25 -200 47256 E tIVI Coppell Independent School District Request for Amendment to Literacy Intervention Support Grant Background of Original Grant Request In February 2002, CISD submitted a grant request to provide funding for payroll costs for ten (10) literacy teachers at $44,000 each. The total amount requested was $440,000. In May, 2002, the Coppell Education Development Corporation (CEDC) approved a grant in the amount of $396,000 to provide funding for nine (9) literacy teachers at $44,000. Funding for the tenth teacher was not approved because the teacher would be serving Valley Ranch Elementary students in the City of Irving. Amendment Request Based on anticipated payroll costs for the employees hired to fill the nine approved positions, CISD will experience a shortfall of $50,391. Detailed information on the payroll costs for the nine teachers filling these positions is presented on the Sales Tax Grant Financial Report. This report reflects anticipated total payroll costs of $446,391 for these employees. The estimated per- teacher payroll cost used in the original grant request was $44,000. This estimate was made prior to assigning teachers to positions and prior to Board of Trustee approval of the 2002 -03 teacher pay schedules. Because CISD must pay teachers according to the degree held and years of teaching experience, the average cost per teacher will be $49,599. CISD requests that the Grant to fund nine (9) literacy support teachers for nine elementary campuses be amended to an amount not to exceed $446,390, an increase of $50,391. The amounts reflected above have been adjusted based on actual payroll costs for employees filling the positions. The numbers presented previously were based on estimates made prior to calculating actual payroll costs. Attachments 4 // y 1. Literacy Intervention Support Grant Application 2.

(REMINDER: Applications may NOT include more than one school fiscal year.) The Literacy Intervention Support Program is designed to serve students who are identified by the Early Reading Assessment as needing additional literacy support in kindergarten, first, and second grade at each of Coppell ISD's ten elementary campuses. Ten Literacy Intervention Support teachers, one teacher per elementary campus, are needed to assist students to develop proficient literacy skills and provide literacy resources/support to regular classroom teachers. Literacy Support Teachers support the state mandated Student Success Initiative by providing literacy leadership at each campus. Their responsibilities include the following: 1. Coordinate state - mandated Early Reading Assessments in grades kindgarten, first and second three times a year —at the beginning of the school year, middle of year, and end of year. 2. Assist regular classroom teachers in identifying students at -risk of reading failure based upon assessment results and work cooperatively with classroom teachers to plan effectively for these identified students. 3. Provide intensive, focused literacy instruction to identified students and constantly monitor students' literacy growth. 4. Provide model teaching in the classroom in such areas as guided reading, interactive or guided writing, phonemic awareness and phonics lessons. Abstract continued 5. Work cooperatively with teachers and principals to promote literacy at each campus and participate in monthly literacy study sessions with other literacy support teachers and the district's language arts coordinator to keep current on reading and writing research and effective literacy program implementations. 6. Provide literacy resources for both students and teachers. Timeline for the Literacy Intervention Support program runs concurrently with the actual school calendar, which begins in August of 2002 and concludes in June of 2003. Pro gram /Proje= rpose/Need/Import once Description of the purpose and the educational need and importance for the proposed program/activities, including the relevance to one or more of the three approved funding areas promoting literacy, foreign language, and/or career technology for a skilled workforce. In order to meet the reading goal set by Governor George W. Bush in 1996 stating that, "All students will read on grade level or higher by the end of third grade and continue reading on or above grade level throughout their schooling," literacy support is imperative in the early primary grades. As a result of this goal, guidelines were given to educators and legislation was passed which required early reading assessment in kindergarten, first and second grade. Guidelines for the mandated Accelerated Reading Instruction includes the following: *Identify target students and instructional priorities *Provide for at least 30 minutes a day of additional systematic and explicit instruction *Provide small group instruction *Use highly trained professionals to deliver instruction and provide interventions CISD has developed a literacy support system using trained, certified, effective elementary teachers who specialize in early literacy skills, support students needing additional literacy support, and serve as literacy role models in each of the ten elementary campuses. Additional classroom support in a small group setting that is taught by a literacy specialist helps students maximize their potential, accelerate literacy skills and improve self - esteem and achievement. 4 Prograni/Purpose continued According to research by Juel in 1994, "Children who fall behind in first grade reading have a one in eight chance of ever catching up to grade level." Therefore, the first focus of the literacy support program is to serve any first grade student identified by the Early Reading Assessment as needing additional literacy support. Literacy intervention support teachers also will serve identified students in kindergarten and second grade based upon greatest need. As a result of the "Ending Social Promotion" legislation, which goes into effect during the 2002 -03 school year, third graders who do not pass the reading portion of the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TAKS) assessment will not be promoted to fourth grade. Thus, the importance of reading acquisition and comprehension is even more imperative. Beginning in kindergarten, students must be making significant literacy progress at each grade level in order to be successful not only on the 3' grade reading TAKS assessment, but to be successful in reading and comprehending new information in all content areas. Pro - ram's Educational Oh'ectives/Sta , in - Needs /Im s lementation Plan/ Number /Grade Level of Students Served Describe program including educational objectives and goals, and differentiate between the two; demands on and expertise of present and proposed staff needed for implementation; and the number of students and the grade levels served by the proposal. Ten Literacy Intervention Support teachers will provide in -depth focused, small group instruction for identified primary grade students. During the 2002 -03 school year, teachers will serve over 700 students in grades K., 1 g and 2 and provide literacy modeling and support for K -2 regular classroom teachers.
