13. USE THESE INDICATORS FOR YOUR GOAL Purpose & Direction Committee Indicator 1.4 [The school’s leadership implements a continuous improvement process that provides clear direction for improving conditions that support student learning.] This is the area we’d like to focus on as a place to grow. Even though stakeholder involvement has improved, we would like to see increased stakeholder representation, involvement, and feedback in our school improvement process. Governance & Leadership Committee Indicator 2.4 = 2.5 (EMERGING) [Leadership and staff foster a culture consistent with the school’s purpose and direction.] Evidence: we think leaders and staff as a whole work towards continuous improvement, but there are a few staff members who might not be focused on improvement, not on board with “continuous improvement.” All students are not held accountable.

14. Teaching and Assessing for Learning Committee Indicator 3.7 = 2 (EMERGING) [Mentoring, coaching, and induction programs support instructional improvement consistent with the school’s values and beliefs about teaching and learning.] Evidence: Only “some” personnel are engaged in mentoring; there aren’t guidelines/expectations’/measures of performance; some descriptions and schedules of mentoring, coaching and induction programs with references to school beliefs and values about teaching and learning in secondary; learning calendar with activities for instructional support of new staff at beginning of school year (one day); personnel manuals with information related to new hires including mentoring, coaching, and induction practices (packet given at new teacher inservice) Resources and Support Systems Committee Indicator 4.4 = 2 (EMERGING) [Students and school personnel use a range of media and information resources to support the school’s educational programs.]

15. Using Results for Continuous Improvement Committee Indicator 5.5 = 2.5 (EMERGING) [Leadership monitors and communicates comprehensive information about student learning, conditions that support student learning, and the achievement of school improvement goals to stakeholders.] Evidence: Need cross-curricular buy-in and communication of achievement goals’ all - staff need to respect each other’s knowledge and experiences; be willing to allow collaboration among staff members; not just core areas but all staff (integration of vocational and academic program) ILCD Committee Your goal must center around improving literacy for all SPED students _____________________________________________________ ONE FINAL INGREDIENT: GO BACK INTO YOUR NOTES FROM LAST YEAR TO HELP YOU; YOUR DISCUSSION & STEERING COMMITTEE’S DISCUSSION WILL GUIDE YOU!!!
