Willagillespie Elementary School

Comprehensive Achievement Plan (CAP) Summary
Willagillespie Community School

After a successful five year school improvement process and plan for 2010-2014 Willagillespie Community School transitioned to a Comprehensive Achievement Plan as the process for determining and documenting school improvement. The change came about in relationship to our role as a targeted Title 1 School in Eugene School District 4J. The Oregon Department of Education and US Department of Education require Title schools to submit a CAP and use it to document school improvement efforts.

Willagillespie staff and site council members developed the current CAP during the 2014-15 school year and began work on fulfilling the goals given below in the 2015-16 school year. Work continues in 2016-17 and beyond, as the CAP is a continuous improvement-planning tool. Progress and amendments to the plan are reported on and made through ongoing review, reflection and input from staff and site council members.
