Strategic Plan Indicators

  • After each school leadership team reflected on its school culture, community, and the key contributing factors to student growth, they used this information to select the Strategic Plan Indicators that would have the greatest positive impact for their students.  Each school was directed to select two to six indicators on which to focus during the 2018-19 school year.  Certainly, we all know that if we focus narrowly and deeply, we are more likely to realize positive results.  The indicators that this school’s leadership team selected are noted below.

Strategic Journey

  • Throughout the next 3 years, schools will focus on their chosen Strategic Plan Indicators as the drivers to increase student engagement and achievement within their schools.  They will choose strategies to help them grow or increase within each indicator and will monitor and evaluate the student and school changes that take place along the journey.  Below you will see what this school imagines their students and school to look like in 2021 after having focused and worked on their chosen indicators for three years.

Our Vision of Success: 2021

  • Daily conferring during Guided Reading is driven by research of the student.

    - Planning includes text dependent questions during and after explicit comprehension, interactive read aloud, and guided reading.

    - Teachers analyze units of study pre-assessments to form and teach strategy writing groups.

    - Vertical team plans for text-level characteristics.

    - Teachers collect and analyze data from Guided Reading (conferring and running records).

    - Teachers observe colleagues learning applications and best practices from one another.

    - Staff work together to help each other when the Guided Reading F & P level is different than the expected grade F & P levels - Staff learned from each other by visiting each other's classrooms and gained ideas to implement into their room

    - Students enjoy reading outside the classroom (bus, recess, home, lunch, etc.)

    - Students are growing with their reading skills
