HSTC Norms We value all ideas, experiences, and perspectives from all stakeholders by assuming positive intentions. We commit to hearing all voices, especially the dissenting voice as we work towards consensus. We are respectful, on task and on time. We attempt to capture key outcomes and points of discussion in such a way to contribute to our “institutional memory.” We have fun and inject appropriate humor!

Cycle of Continuous Improvement Example 1 Site Level Data Being Considered: –Percent Participation by SLC in Master Schedule Aligns with Pathway Certification Criteria –Pathway Design –1.1.4 Cohort Scheduling Cycle may take 1 year
12
Utilize data to identify site- based needs in implementing Linked Learning. Site-Level School Improvement Plan (WASC) Questions to Consider: How can the data be organized to derive meaning from it and to be able to identify needs? How does the data relate to Linked Learning? Is data collection a roadblock? Does the data reveal roadblocks or reveal opportunities? Example: Looking at the impact of the master schedule on the development of Linked Learning Pathways. Focus and prioritize site- based needs by aligning with ACSI and HSRI. Set measurable growth targets aligned with the ACSI and HSRI. Develop an action plan focused on achievement strategies and best instructional practices to reach growth targets. Implement action plan with professional development support. Review and analyze data to monitor progress and make needed adjustments.
13
Utilize data to identify site- based needs in implementing Linked Learning. Site-Level School Improvement Plan (WASC) Questions to Consider: Looking at the needs identified, which ones are most important? How familiar are site leaders with the details of the ACSI and HSRI? Example: The master schedule data directly relates to the first two goals of the HSRI. Focus and prioritize site- based needs by aligning with ACSI and HSRI. Set measurable growth targets aligned with the ACSI and HSRI. Develop an action plan focused on achievement strategies and best instructional practices to reach growth targets.

Utilize data to identify site- based needs in implementing Linked Learning. Site-Level School Improvement Plan (WASC) Questions to Consider: Are you setting an achievable goal? Do you have a way of knowing if you have achieved the goal? Have you identified other school wide efforts or activities that may impact your ability to achieve the goal you set? Do you need additional data (like multiple year trends) in order to set an achievable goal? Will you be able to communicate this goal to all participants? Example: Two specific measurable goals for master schedule would be: 1-increase the number of core classes that are 95% SLC pure by 3%. 2-increase the participation of SLC-X in AP classes by 5% Focus and prioritize site- based needs by aligning with ACSI and HSRI.
