YEAR 3 PLAN

Transforming Initiative 1: Establish and maintain a student growth and 21st Century Literacy centered accountability system which prepares all students to be career and college ready.

In order to impact student achievement, the school district has to systematically collect, disseminate, disaggregate and analyze data. The school district must also understand all of the implications that the effective use of and maintenance of data has on student achievement. Effective districts set specific achievement targets for schools and students and then ensure the consistent use of research-based instructional strategies in all classrooms to reach those targets. (Waters & Marzano, 2006)

Key Cabinet Members Responsible: Mark Stefanik, SuperintendentSandy Kinzel, Assistant SuperintendentPaul O’Briant, Chief Information OfficerVirginia Arrington, Secondary Director

State Board of Education Goals:● Every student graduates from high school prepared for work, further education and citizenship● Every student has a personalized education● Every student, every day, has excellent educators● Every school district has up-to-date financial, business, and technology systems to serve its

students, parents and educators● Every student is healthy, safe, and responsible

■ Teachers will differentiate instruction, based on benchmark and common assessment data, to increase student performance, as evidenced through observations and evaluation process. (New)

■ All schools meet AMO (annual measurable objective) targets for subgroups.■ All schools demonstrating high growth as measured in EVAAS.■ Student achievement is above the state average on all state assessment measures.■ Achieve the instructional target of reaching at least 80% of students through effective core

instruction as evidenced by end of year benchmarks and state assessments.

STRATEGIES:■ Continue to build teacher capacity for data analysis, problem solving and instructional

decision making through training on TIPS (Team Initiated Problem Solving) model and district leadership support meetings. (New)

Transforming Initiative 2: Strategically establish processes or procedures for setting expectations and problem solving for increased student achievement.

In districts with higher levels of student achievement, the entire district is aligned with and supportive of non-negotiable goals and expectations (for instruction and behavior) and use data in an ongoing problem-solving process to improve student achievement and instruction. District progress towards these goals is continually monitored and is the driving force behind the district’s actions. (Waters & Marzano, 2006)

Transforming Initiative 1: Establish and maintain a student growth and 21st Century Literacy centered accountability system which prepares all students to be career and college ready.

In order to impact student achievement, the school district has to systematically collect, disseminate, disaggregate and analyze data. The school district must also understand all of the implications that the effective use of and maintenance of data has on student achievement. Effective districts set specific achievement targets for schools and students and then ensure the consistent use of research-based instructional strategies in all classrooms to reach those targets. (Waters & Marzano, 2006)

Transforming Initiative 2: Strategically establish processes or procedures for setting expectations and problem solving for increased student achievement.

In districts with higher levels of student achievement, the entire district is aligned with and supportive of non-negotiable goals and expectations (for instruction and behavior) and use data in an ongoing problem-solving process to improve student achievement and instruction. District progress towards these goals is continually monitored and is the driving force behind the district’s actions. (Waters & Marzano, 2006)

Transforming Initiative 3: Align and allocate resources to goals and needs based on data.

Effective school districts ensure that the necessary resources, including time, money, personnel and materials are allocated to accomplish the district’s goals.
