Why Change?
“Walk the Talk”
• Complete a PDSA of the EPSS Process • What worked ?
• What didn’t ?
• What did the users say about the process?
• What were the original goals for the process?
• Need to document action; • Need to show results; • Need to have a plan that provided a “roadmap” for student success • Request from the users of the process- you, principals, teachers; • Request from the EPSS Coordinators to connect the assessment with the Improvement Plan
EPSS Alignment Committee
• Participants met 4 times- December,2006 to March, 2007 • Included all PED Departments; representation from Superintendents, Program Directors, Principals, JSA, and Education Partners • Made recommendations regarding format
We had lots of parts and pieces- all good, but not necessarily connected!
