Draft Working Together on Our School Systems Review

Step 1. Read the Guiding Question (for a Standard) in the School Improvement Framework Overview. Discuss the Guiding Question and record your evidence for how your school is addressing the Guiding Question on the Dialogue Recording Form. Step 2

Dialogue Recording Form If working in small teams, you may wish to write notes on chart paper, for ease of sharing with other teams.

Draft Starting Point Now turn to the corresponding Indicator in the School Systems Review.  Begin by reading the “Full Implementation” column. Mark the box for each characteristic for which your school has identified evidence (from dialogue about the Guiding Questions). Step 3

Draft Step 3 (continued) Read the Sample Evidence listed on the School Systems Review for the Indicator. Check off any evidence listed that you identified and add additional evidence you identified that is not already listed.

Draft Step 3 (continued) Engage in dialogue about which implementation level to select based on evidence. Using evidence that was identified and the characteristics on the School Systems Review, place your school on the continuum for each Indicator.

Step 3 (continued) On the Dialogue Recording Form, make notes of key points of discussion that occurs while placing your school on the continuum. These notes will be useful in the school improvement planning process.

Draft Group Work/Discussion We’re going to divide into small groups. Each group needs a facilitator, recorder, and time-keeper.

Draft Small Group Work Time

Draft Share Across Teams and Reach Consensus If working in small teams, do a Gallery Walk* so that teams can discuss each other’s evidence and ratings. *One person from each group stays with the chart paper to explain it to other groups. The rest of the group members travel to all the other charts. Teams add to the evidence as needed. As a whole group, reach consensus on the rating for each Indicator.

Draft Wrap Up and Next Steps Any comments or an “Aha!” you would like to share with the whole group? Please hand in … – Your completed School Systems Review documents (the continuum/rating scale) – Your Dialogue Recording Forms
