What Doesn’t Work
• Chasing assessment items from state
tests
• AIS that is small groups of students in
small rooms
• RtI that is focused on labeling and sorting
rather than Tier 1 interventions
• Moving from one initiative to another
• Conversely, nor the status quo
What Works
•
•
•
•
Guaranteed and viable Curriculum
Student focus
Common formative interim assessment
Teacher collaboration on the right work
(this means time)
• Coaching
• “Whatever it Takes” culture
Strategery
• Multi-year plans that help resource
deployment and a long-term focus
3-8 and Vendor Scoring
• Now that we’ve seen the scores?
• Vendor scoring experiences and plans?
• Correlation with scores?
CCLS Implementation
•
•
•
•
•
•
Double-Testing Waiver Status
ELA 11 and A1 Experiences?
Geometry
ELA 11
HS principals are discussing
Continue to update the curriculum and
assessment chart
