11. Annual Update and Progress Monitoring
Questions to Ask:
How do we know that an action or service is making a positive difference in advancing student success?
What interim measures are available (benchmark assessments, weekly or monthly data pulls) to provide preliminary information?
What information is being used to determine progress toward goals, for all students and student groups?
Are the actions/services addressing the needs of the unduplicated student groups? How do you know?
Is there relevant stakeholder feedback?
N 20 presentation; 10 min discussion

12. Maximizing Use of the Dashboard
Remember!
The Dashboard shows performance on multiple measures that contribute to a quality education for students. This provides a more complete picture of how schools are meeting the needs of the students they serve.
S – 25 min presentation; 10 min discussion

13. Maximizing Use of the Dashboard
Local Indicators
Local Indicators must be shared at a regularly scheduled Board Meeting, and then uploaded to the Dashboard by December 1, 2017.
Any indicators that are not completed by the district will be displayed as “Not Met”.
S – 25 min presentation; 10 min discussion

14. Maximizing Use of the Dashboard
Key Considerations:
Know who and what is included in the indicators
Who’s the intended audience?
What other data/information can support the narrative?
Use all the resources available, (e.g. research files)
What do you do if there are gaps in the data (e.g. small student groups, no info)
