About
SCHOOL YEAR 2017-18, MARKED THE FIFTH YEAR OF OPERATION FOR MIDDLE VILLAGE PREP. THE SCHOOL CONTINUES TO OFFER FULL SUPPORT TO ITS STUDENTS THROUGH THE IMPLEMENTATION OF RIGOROUS CURRICULUM AND EXCITING PROGRAMS THAT COMPLEMENT SUBJECT CORE AREAS. THE INCREASE IN STUDENT ENROLLMENT FROM ITS ORIGINAL REGISTERS OF 229 TO 381 STUDENTS HAS ENABLED THE ADMINISTRATION TO HIRE SIX ADDITIONAL STAFF MEMBERS, INCLUDING THREE SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHERS.MVP'S INSTRUCTIONAL PROGRAM HAS NOT BEEN MODIFIED AS IT CONTINUES TO OFFER ALGEBRA AND EARTH SCIENCE COURSES TO ALL ITS 8TH GRADE STUDENTS. THESE HIGH SCHOOL LEVEL COURSES PREPARED STUDENTS TO SUCCESSFULLY TAKE THE REGENTS FOR THE ALGEBRA 1 AND EARTH SCIENCE REGENTS EXAMS, OF WHICH PROFICIENCY RATES REACHED 91% AND 59%, RESPECTIVELY. IN ADDITION, 8TH GRADERS ARE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE THE NATIONAL LATIN PROFICIENCY AS WELL AS HISTORY REGENTS. OUR PASSING RATE FOR 2017-18 IN LATIN WAS 85% AND 84% FOR THE REGENTS HISTORY. THESE EXAMS ARE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION WHEN OUR GRADUATING STUDENTS TRANSITION TO HIGH SCHOOL, AS THEY RECEIVE CREDITS FOR EACH COURSE. THIS ALSO ALLOW OUR STUDENTS TO PARTICIPATE AND COMPLETE ADVANCED PLACEMENT (AP) COLLEGE COURSES IN HIGH SCHOOL. THE STEM (ROBOTICS), HEALTH EDUCATION AND PERFORMANCE ARTS (THEATER, MUSIC AND BAND) PROGRAMS CONTINUE TO BE IN OUR SCHOLASTIC COURSE OFFERINGS. WE ADDED A FULL TIME VISUAL ARTS PROGRAM IN WHICH ALL GRADES HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO PARTICIPATE IN ONGOING HANDS ON ART PROJECTS, DEVELOP ARTISTIC SKILLS, CREATIVE EXPRESSIONS IN THE ARTS AS WELL AS BECOMING FAMILIAR AND MEETING THE STANDARDS AS REFLECTED ON THE BLUE PRINT FOR THE ARTS. IN THE AREA OF TECHNOLOGY, THE USE OF TABLETS IN OUR 7TH & 8TH GRADE CONTINUES TO BE ENHANCED, SUPPORTING STUDENTS AS THEY IMPROVE THEIR ABILITIES TO USE TECHNOLOGY IN A VARIETY OF WAYS, INCLUDING HAVING ACCESS TO RESOURCES SUCH AS MICROSOFT OFFICE (FOR PROJECTS AND PRESENTATIONS), AS WELL AS GOOGLE CLASSROOM FOR COLLABORATIVE WORK. MIDDLE VILLAGE PREP PLACES A STRONG EMPHASIS IN PROVIDING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITIES TO ALL ITS STAFF MEMBERS. THIS YEAR WE SECURED THE COACHING AND SUPPORT SERVICES FROM TEACHERS COLLEGE AT COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY. A TEAM OF INSTRUCTIONAL COACHES OFFER "ONE TO ONE" SUPPORT TO SELECT TEACHERS AND PROVIDE WHOLE GROUP TRAINING IN BEST TEACHING PRACTICES WITH A LENS ON THE DANIELSON FRAMEWORK FOR TEACHING. THE FFT IDENTIFIES THOSE ASPECTS OF A TEACHER'S RESPONSIBILITIES THAT HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED THROUGH EMPIRICAL STUDIES AND THEORETICAL RESEARCH AS PROMOTING IMPROVED STUDENT LEARNING. ENABLING TEACHERS TO BE TRULY SKILLFUL IN THEIR CRAFT THROUGH PROPER TRAINING AND SUPPORT, GIVES OUR STUDENTS AN ASSURANCE THAT THEY WILL SUCCESSFULLY TRANSITION TO THEIR NEXT GRADE LEVEL AND WILL BE PREPARED FOR COLLEGE AND CAREER PLANS. OUR TEACHERS PREPARE OUR STUDENTS TO ATTAIN GRADE LEVEL OR HIGHER WHEN IT COMES TO STATE TESTING. WE USE SCHOOL WIDE, CITY AND STATE ASSESSMENTS DATA TO PLAN PURPOSEFULLY, DRIVE INSTRUCTION AND MONITOR STUDENT ACADEMIC PROGRESS. THIS ENABLES US TO ASSIST OUR STUDENTS EFFECTIVELY SO THAT THEY CAN REACH THE EXPECTED PROFICIENCY LEVELS, THUS FULLY MASTERING EACH STANDARD ON GRADE LEVEL. THE MOST RECENT DATA PROVIDED BY THE STATE AND NYC REFLECTS THAT STUDENTS ACROSS GRADES 6, 7 AND 8 REACHED 64% LEVELS OF PROFICIENCY IN MATHEMATICS, AN INCREASE OF 13% POINTS FROM THE PREVIOUS YEAR. IN ELA, OUR STUDENTS DEMONSTRATED 56% PROFICIENCY, AN INCREASE OF 12% POINTS IN COMPARISON TO THE PREVIOUS YEAR. OUR STUDENTS SURPASSED THE PROFICIENCY LEVELS FOR BOTH MATH AND ELA BY 16% POINTS IN COMPARISON TO THE REST OF NYS. CITY WIDE, OUR STUDENTS SURPASSED THE CITY AVERAGE OF 41% BY 17% POINTS IN ELA, AND 27% POINTS IN MATH. OUR ATTENDANCE AVERAGE IS 97%, THAT'S 15% POINTS ABOVE NYC PUBLIC SCHOOLS. WE CONTINUE TO SEE AN INCREASE IN STUDENTS' PERFORMANCE REACHING AN AVERAGE OF 90% OR HIGHER IN ALL SUBJECT AREAS, MAKING THEM ELIGIBLE TO BE A PART OF THE NATIONAL JUNIOR HONOR SOCIETY. THE TEACHERS AT MIDDLE VILLAGE PREP, ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT THE WORK THEY DO WITH OUR STUDENTS, AND HAVE DEMONSTRATED CONTINUOUS COMMITMENT TO THE ACADEMIC AND SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF ALL OUR STUDENTS. THE TEAM OF ADMINISTRATORS, SUPERVISORS, TEACHERS, STUDENTS AND PARENTS SHARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF CREATING A POSITIVE AND SAFE SCHOOL CULTURE THAT NURTURES EVERY STUDENT, WITH A FAMILY LIKE ATMOSPHERE THAT LETS THEM KNOW WE CARE, AND WILL ULTIMATELY DO EVERYTHING IN OUR POWER TO MEET OUR STUDENTS' NEEDS. LASTLY, IT IS WORTH NOTING THAT WE HAVE AN AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAM THAT IS AN EXTENSION TO THE SCHOOL DAY ALLOWING STUDENTS THE OPPORTUNITY TO RECEIVE HOMEWORK HELP, JOIN CLUBS, AND PARTICIPATE IN SPORTS AND OTHER EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES.
