  7. Main Points? Questions?

  8. The DLT, BLT, TBT Connection

  9. Lakewood City SchoolsOhio Improvement Process • Lakewood City Schools have been involved for five years • Established District Leadership Teams and Building Leadership Teams in 2008-2009 • Establishment of TBTs became district goal for 2010-2011

  10. As TBTs developed… All meetings re-purposed • TBTs – instead of team meetings on topics or universal screening data; now 5 step process • BLTs – Varied building topics to TBT report outs • DLT – small district to every principal and one teacher rep per building, BLT report outs • DLT Steering – development of DLT agenda

  11. Lakewood City SchoolsOur Repurposed Structure

  12. Lakewood City Schools…Tweaking the Process for Communication • TBTs – established common protocol for all • BLTs – review TBT protocols within meetings; follow question protocol • DLT – follows 5-step process; no BLT share out from all; data review and group processing • DLT Steering – follows 5-step process; reviews analysis from DLT and makes decisions

  13. Lakewood City SchoolsMonitoring

  14. Lakewood City SchoolsMonitoring • Central office participation • BLT meetings • PD early release • Superintendent data meetings • OPES

  15. In Conclusion… • Based on the data and discussions, is there any grade level, building or TBT that DLT would like to get more information from in Math or Reading? • Do we think that our Adult Implementation Indicators support monitoring our District Improvement Plan? • Is there other data that would be more useful to monitor student achievement? • How might we speculate our Benchmarking Data correlates to our District Value-Added and Performance Index results? • How can DLT find high yield instructional strategies that are working in areas where there is significant growth in student achievement? • In your discussions were there any curriculum or instructional changes at a particular grade level where you saw gains in student achievement?

  16. Learn from: • Math : Lincoln 4th, Hayes 5th, Harding 7, Roosevelt • Reading: Harrison 4th, Hayes 5th, Garfield 6th • HS English dept. • LHS science dept. • Adult implementation Indicators: • Fine in plan with this caveat: implement as described and possibly add instructional strategies from walk-through protocol • Add longitudinal data • Student interview may not support monitoring plan • Student performance indicators: • Fine with collection – need to use better across levels • RIMP data • RtII data • Add longitudinal data • Correlation: • There is a direct correlation - >.6 • With change to DIBELS composite, is there a greater correlation? • Instructional strategies: • BLTs use TBT protocols to identify strategies examine with walk-through data • Report to DLT and DLT steering • Drill to building level to examine strategies – are there differences by level? • How have reading edge students performed? • We need to pick particular strategies that everyone will use to see if they increase growth

  17. Lakewood City Schools…Improving, but will continue to tweak • 5 straight years of “Above expected growth” • 4 straight years of increases in Performance Index • Moved from “Medium Support” to “Low Support” per improvement in AYP • Questions, Comments, Advice?
