  3. Expected Outcomes From Our Work Use the professional learning communities model to create a comprehensive data-driven instructional program. Deploy high-yield engagement practices in every classroom. Improvement of craft knowledge by looking at student data and professional development. Courageous conversations. Begin to develop a response to intervention system to ensure that students receive the time and support needed to close the achievement gap in reading. Students who FFB in grades and assessments can be addressed on Wednesday and Thursdays via our Multi-disciplinary Team Approach. 4.Apply PDSA and benchmarking strategies to drive continuous improvement efforts. How? Have at least 8 – 10 assessments in Horizon to build on our students predictive data

  9. Our Challenge: How will we use data to guide our work?

  10. The Big 4Areas of Focus for FY2011 Eliminate the knowing and doing gap first. “The answer is always in the room…” Deploy common assessments frequently and analyze the data to identify students who need additional time and support for learning, discover strengths and weaknesses in individual and collective teaching practice and measure progress toward accomplishing team goals. Act on your evidence! Develop plans for data collection, intervention and improving student achievement in math and literacy. Celebrate our success.

  11. This will be hard work, but working together we can figure it out!

  12. Systems Perspective “All organizations are perfectly aligned to get the results they are currently getting. If people in the organization knew what to do to resolve the problem, they would do it, so it is likely to be a matter of not having the knowledge, (tool) or skill to create the needed change.” Charting Your Course Conyers and Ewy

  13. Explain How do teachers teams plan for student engagement?

  14. PLC Work Process Review Student Performance Data (formative and summative) Determine Whether School Improvement Objectives Will Be: Standardized Modified Abandoned Determine Programmatic/ Instructional Strengths & Weaknesses Study School Improvement Plan Objectives Results (Results and Reflection) ACT Research Best Practices PLAN STUDY DO Develop School Improvement Plan Objectives Execute School Improvement Plan Objectives (Execute Work Plan Strategies) Develop Performance Indicators and Work Plan Strategies

  24. Exit Ticket What three actions will your team take in their PLC’s over the next 90 days to ensure that our school closes achievement gaps and raises the bar for all students? Hints: Start with reviewing your data… (Predictive data) Use the PDSA Model to construct plan…

  25. Plans for success at DVMS • Action steps: • From our Grades and Assessments we need to determine the why? Won’tsvsCan’ts • We need to then collaboratively determine and deploy strategies to assist the Won’ts and Can’ts • Can’ts strategic planners are Math/LA/SPED/EL • craft knowledge and intervention strategies • Won’ts strategic planners are SS/Sci/Expl/PE and Counselors - relationship building, rewards and responsibilities
