  8. Interactive Illinois Report Card (IIRC) http://iirc.niu.edu/ • State - District - Schools Data(public access) • Improvement Plans • Guides • E-Plan Templates (password protected) • Monitoring Prompts (ISBE responses) • Administrators – Student Data (restricted)

  9. IIRC – Login to e-Plans Page

  10. Focus: School Improvement Plan (SIP) SIP includes Four Components I: Data and Analysis III. Plan Development, Review, and Implementation II. Action Plan IV. Board Action

  11. What Makes a Successful Plan? • Connections and relationships are clear. Data and Analysis Strategies & Activities Monitoring Process • Roles, responsibilities, and expectations are defined. (administrators, teachers, students, parents, others) • Focus is on changing instructional practice in the classrooms and improving student achievement.

  12. Section I: Data and Analysis I.A: Record Card Data IIRC includes data comparisons 2002 to 2010. • AYP information • Assessment data – reading & mathematics • School information • Educator data

  13. AYP Calculations & Trends To make AYP, a district or school must meet ALL of the following three requirements: • Participation Rate on State Assessment • Performance (Reading and Mathematics) • Attendance/Graduation Rate

  14. Section I: Data and Analysis Identify: Areas of weakness and strengths Contributing external and internal factors Conclusions: • What do these factors imply for the next steps in school improvement planning? • What can be addressed by the school?

  15. Section I Continued I.B: Local Assessment Data (optional) Local assessment data and analysis that are directly related to the identified strategies and activities and relate to the AYP results can be critical to the success of the plan. I-C: Other Data (optional) Other data help to define the current situation that exists in the school and/or community and are relevant to the school not making AYP.

  16. Section I Continued I.C: Item 1 – Attributes & Challenges Description and analysis of the school and community attributes and challenges that have affected student performance. I-C: Item 2 – Education Qualifications, Staff Capacity, and Professional Development. Description and analysis of each of the listed components.

  17. Section I Continued I.C: Item 3 – Parent Involvement Description and analysis of the parental involvement – knowing that parents are to be actively engaged in the educational process. I-D: Key Factors (CRITICAL) • Prioritize the factors identified in I-A, I-B, and I-C that staff can change or influence. • Use these to develop the Action Plan, including strategies and activities for students, educators, and parents.

  18. Section II – Action Plan Objectives must - • Identify the current achievement level • Be measurable outcomes in terms of the AYP achieved for EACH year of the plan. (Plan must span two years.) • Focus on fundamental teaching and learning issues • Ensure that each subgroup meets the State’s target

  19. Objective: While the current achievement in math for students with disabilities subgroup is 46.5% meeting/exceeding for ISAT, this subgroup will make AYP of at least 77.5% in 2010 and 85% for 2011 or Safe Harbor. Strategies: 1 double block math instruction 2 coaching for math staff 3 student and staff review of student work 4 improve test taking skills 5 progress monitoring to drive instruction

  20. Section II – Action Plan II: Strategies and Activities II-B: Students II-C: Professional Development II-D: Parent Involvement II-E: Monitoring (for each objective)

  21. Clarity is KEY The plan users must know what is expected of them to implement the plan with fidelity and monitor progress.

  22. Defining Strategies & Activities • Are the strategies and activities necessary for the students, educators, and parents? • Do they incorporate on-going successful strategies and activities? • Will these effectively change instructional practice and improve student achievement? • Can these be monitored (observed and measured)?
