  5. Schools committed to improving student learning need information more than ever. They must have a process that gathers authentic and relevant information and used it to identify strengths and weaknesses in a way that pushes people toward continuous improvement.” (Dolan, 1994)

  6. Where should we focus our attention?

  7. How does data lead to improvement? Questions to begin thinking about soon . . . Did we, as a school/division, meet our objectives? If not, what do we need to do differently? What are indicators (best practices) that align to our data needs? What is the climate of our school/division? What are some specific perceptions or needs that need to be addressed in the improvement plan? What programs and/or interventions are working or not working?

What instructional trends is our walk-through data showing and where do we need to focus attention? Does our data correlate? For example, do our grades align with our other assessments? What does the work of the PLC look like? Does it demonstrate academic rigor? What are the key elements? Is behavior getting in the way of learning? If so, for whom? How? Is attendance getting in the way of learning? If so, for whom? How? Are we on track for meeting/ exceeding benchmarks? How do we know?
