How to Achieve HRS Certification

Want to become a high reliability school? Achieve certification at all five HRS

levels and make it a reality! The certification process begins by surveying teachers

and administrators (student and parent surveys can also be administered for more

comprehensive data). The survey results will then go through an in-depth analysis

to determine your school’s strengths and weaknesses.

After school weaknesses are identified, programs and practices will be

implemented to begin the improvement process. Next, your school will

identify lagging indicators and collect data to monitor their progress. Once the

requirements for each lagging indicator have been met, your school will achieve

high reliability status for that level. You will need to collect quick data on a regular

basis (e.g. monthly) to ensure continual progress. If the initial survey results

show that your school has no areas of weakness in the categories it has deemed

most important, then you can skip ahead to identifying lagging indicators and

collecting data.

The following figure illustrates the two paths to HRS certification. Your school

will continue the process until it has reached high reliability status at all five

levels. At this point, you will become a certified high reliability school! From

here, you will continue to use quick data to monitor the school’s status, celebrate

accomplishments, and sustain long-term success as an HRS.
