Reflective Questions:

1. Do your goals, action steps, and implementation plan reflect the system’s beliefs, mission, and vision?

· Yes. Our goals focus on each student’s ability to achieve if given a supportive, secure and stimulating learning environment. Our action steps and implementation plan utilize a collaborative effort among all stakeholders to address individual student needs with particular focus on students identified as at-risk and for those students identified within the NCLB disaggregated subgroups.

2. Are your goals and actions steps designed to build capacity at the local school level to improve student achievement?

· Yes. Our goals focus on needs identified within our student population. These needs when addressed through our action steps help to build capacity at the local school level. Capacity at the local school level is achieved as the system supports the schools with appropriate resources to facilitate student achievement. Resources include factors within instruction, curriculum, assessment, and organization that utilize best practices to facilitate student achievement and program support at each school and within the system as a whole.

3. Does your action plan promote collaboration in and among the various system programs?

· Yes. Our action plan promotes collaboration in and among the various system programs by promoting collaboration at all levels throughout our system. Collaboration within our system structure begins with collaboration among our instruction staff. This comes about through the use of high quality professional development, frequent opportunities to interact and mentoring within grade levels, across grade levels, and between school grade level configurations. Curriculum coordinators are an integral part of the system’s efforts to facilitate collaboration as they provide guidance to instructional staff to understand programs and to implement instructional strategies. Our action plan further promotes collaboration by utilizing an advisory group, committee and small group structure to provide feedback and guidance relative to programs and issues that influence student achievement and system operation. An integral part of our collaboration is the involvement of all stakeholders in the education of our student population.
