Overview of Milestones • Convened 60 educators (July ‘04) • Workgroup of ISD School Improvement Specialists drafted revisions (Aug – Dec) • Field Services followed-up on “discrepancy list” (SY ’04-’05) • State Board Review (Jan ‘05) • Field Review/Feedback of SI Framework (Feb-Apr ’05) Product NOW

  8. Overview of Workgroup Process • Reviewed “Kent Report” for recommendations • Reviewed current Performance Indicators • Reviewed the literature on school improvement • Cross-referenced research – search for common elements • Developed a “school improvement framework” – strands, standards, benchmarks, criteria, evidence • OSI develops framework; OEAA develops measurements

  9. Criteria for SI Framework • Based on Something(External Validity) • “Logical”- Makes sense to various audiences (State Board, Legislature, Schools, Teachers…) • Build on current Indicators (Internal Validity) • Easy to Understand & User Friendly • Measurable • Self-sufficient/Stand Alone
