Objectives of today’s session: • To prepare schools to complete the 2011-2012 School Improvement Plan • To provide updates from Florida Department of Education in reference to School Improvement
What’s New for 2011-2012? • The WORD template has not been released by the FDOE at this time. It will be posted to Broward’s School Improvement website as soon as we receive it. • We are recommending that you use the 2010-2011 WORD template as a guide. • Each school is required to use the online template for SIP submission to the state when it becomes available. • You must copy and paste information from the WORD document into the online template.
Updates to the SIP Template Common Goal Section • When you have identified Anticipated Barriers, Strategies, etc. that are common across content areas and/or subgroups, you will be able to click on a button (“Common Goal Section”) and input the barrier, strategies, etc. and it will populate each goal you select. • After each goal section there is a view section link to allow printing just for that goal. • Last year’s school improvement plan will automatically rollover to the online template once it is released and you can edit the information for this year.
