7. PLC Outcomes How will this PLC translate to my site? IS receive aligned content at Blue Friday Pink Wednesday should focus on Climate & Engagement in collaboration with your IS Data driven process Accountability—how do we account for this work? How do we move toward intentionality?

8. Fundamental III: Climate and Engagement A.Position Statement: School staff use relevant student behavior and school climate data when making decisions within the continuum of service. B.Expectations: Positive relationships are built with ALL students. Knowledge of student backgrounds and interests drives positive engagement strategies and relevance of class work and homework assignments. Within the PLC structure, teachers will explore the associations between behavioral indicators and academic achievement. Reinforcing positive behavior is exhausted before the use of office referrals and other disciplinary strategies that limit access to instruction. Schools implement PBIS and SEL framework, and monitor effectiveness through MTSS process. Schools track and monitor student behavior data through IC. Teachers intentionally work toward developing common cultural connections around language for more effective instructional and learning opportunities in and outside of the classroom. Press Play
