How do we assess how our students are doing? What: What process do we use to share this info with stakeholders? What are the student achievement needs?

8. School Data Profile/Analysis At what level are our students achieving? How does this compare to where we want them to be? What factors influence student achievement? What does this information tell us about our greatest area of need? What are the areas of concern over which we have control?

9. Analyze Achievement DataAchievement data paints a picture of student performance. How has student achievement changed in the last five years? When comparing the school with the district and state, which content area would the staff identify as a challenge area for the school?

10. Analyze Demographic DataDemographic data describes the students who are included in the achievement data as well as the staff who teach them. What patterns or trends in enrollment need to be addressed? What implications do the data present for the school in the following areas: staffing, fiscal resource allocations, facility planning, parent involvement, professional development, public relations, and/or recruitment?

11. Analyze Perception DataPerception data gives us a look at opinions of students, parents, and staff. What are the perceptions of students regarding the quality of the instructional program? What are the perceptions of parents regarding support for student learning? What are the perceptions of teachers/staff regarding school climate?

12. Analyze Process Data (School Process Rubrics)Process data helps us understand how the quality of school processes might impact student achievement. What processes are used to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of research-based strategies being used in the classroom? How do staff members demonstrate high expectations for all students? Which indicators could your school further develop to improve student achievement?

16. Goals Management • www.advanc-ed.org/mde

17. Set Goals Schools are required to write a minimum of three goals, including a goal for any area for which they do not meet AYP and/or are not performing at the state average on state assessments. Maintenance goals are appropriate for areas in which the school is performing at a satisfactory level and focused on maintaining or improving student performance in that content area. Title I schools must addressall four content areas as either improvement or maintenance goals.

18. Set Goals Goal statements: Are based on a careful analysis of data Align with challenges identified in the Comprehensive Needs Assessment Are linked to identified student academic learning needs Broadly state that all students will be successful learners in a specific area of the content.

19. Set Goals In the Goal section of Goals Management, schools are asked to identify the following: Goal Source – Continuous Improvement Content Area – Reading, writing, math, science or social studies Goal Name – Reading, Writing, Math, Science or Social Studies Student Goal Statement – “All students will be proficient in (reading, writing, math, science or social studies)”

20. Gap Statement When considering the percent proficient onMEAP, there is a 10% gap between current performance by all students and the 100% goal. In addition, there is a 21% difference between students without disabilities and students with disabilities. Gap Use multiple data sources

21. Causes for the Gap In what strands might students be underperforming? Are there subgroups in which students are underperforming their counterparts? Are there school processes that are weak as identified in the process data? Are there perceptions by students, parents, or staff that are limiting achievement?

22. Why are … ? Why? Why? Why? Why? Causes for the Gap IMPACT DEGREE OF CONTROL

23. Set Goals In the Goal section of Goals Management, schools are also asked to identify the following: Multiple Measures – the data sources that were used in defining your gap statement and upon which the measureable objective will be based. Criteria for Success – “Students will make progress toward measurable objectives as measured by (your multiple measures).” Person Responsible – the person ultimately responsible for seeing that the goal is reached.

28. Set Measurable Objectives SMART - Specific, Measureable, Attainable, Results-focused, and Time-bound “Who will be able to do what, by when, as measured by what?” Student Goal Statement: All students will be proficient in reading. Measurable Objective Statement: The percentage of all students proficient on the MEAP in the areas of summarizing informational text will increase from XX% (Fall, 20XX) to YY% (Fall, 20XX). The percentage of non-disabled students proficient will increase from XX%(Fall 20XX) to YY% (Fall 20XX), and the percentage of disabled students proficient will increase from XX% (Fall 20XX) to YY% (Fall 20XX).

30. Research-Based Best Practices What research-based strategies will we use to ensure that students make progress toward meeting the goal and the measureable objective?

31. Research Based Best Practices • Is this the Right Thingto do? • Does the practice align to our need? • Will the practice be a good fit with other district/school needs/priorities?

32. Research Based Best Practices • Can we do it the Right Way? • (Implement with Fidelity) • How similar to the research situation is our situation? If our situation is not the same, can we still implement the practice with fidelity, possibly with acceptable adjustments? • Can we build the level of commitment/readiness and successfully address resistance? • Can we develop the necessary technical and adaptive skills in leadership? • Can we put the right people in the right place to implement the strategy? Can we build the capacity, knowledge, and skills of those charged with implementation and provide on-going support for implementation, e.g. coaching? • Can we put the required organizational/structural structures in place/remove barriers? • Can we commit the necessary financial resources, e.g. fiscal, personnel, technology? • Can we commit the necessary processes and mechanisms to monitor fidelity of adult implementation and student impact?

33. Research Based Best Practices Is this the Right Thingto do? • No – choose something else. • Yes – proceed to “Can we do it the right way?” Can we do it the Right Way? • No – choose something else • Yes – proceed to developing action plan
