Questions about Implementation Do ALL teachers know and understand the CCRS? Has instruction changed? Does our professional development plan provide focus on teaching the CCRS? (You cannot focus if there are TOO MANY professional development activities) Do teachers have aligned materials to support instruction? Do teachers have and use aligned benchmark or interim assessments as well as daily formative assessment strategies? Do we have a “readiness” plan that includes support systems (intervention, guidance and counseling, parent communication,etc.)?

Questions about Impact How many of our students are exceeding or ready based on Aspire and Plan results? What does our benchmark or interim assessments reflect – is there a close alignment with Aspire or Plan? How many of our students are college and career ready? At the district level, do we have a plan for supporting schools based on data? At the school level, do we have a plan for supporting students based on data?

Key is Comparing “Level of Implementation” to “Level of Impact”
