Strategic Plan Goal Area 2:
Strategic Plan Outcome: Progress on Standards
Strategic Plan Measure: Course passage rate by course desegregated by subgroups, including racial groups and SPED/ELL/504/TAG
School “SMART” Goal (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Timely): By the end of the 2023-24 school year, 90% of each student subgroup will earn a C or better in their classes. This will occur by teachers using designated strategies during instruction at least daily. We will track progress on use of strategies and teacher feedback through department meetings and classroom walkthroughs targeting strategy use observed in at least 50% of weekly walkthroughs by the end of January 2024.
Strategic Plan Strategy: Articulated and scaffolded high leverage teaching strategies (AVID-WICOR) taught and consistently used in all content areas at all grade levels.
- Action: Staff development on designated strategies (AVID, Culturally Responsive, Feedback, etc)
- Action: Department based continuous improvement cycles that allow for teachers sharing practices. Provide department level data disaggregated by subgroups.
- Action: IB for All and Math IB expansion
- Action: Teacher feedback on both strategies and use in the classroom.
- Administrators conduct focused teacher feedback including walkthroughs, goal-setting, focused feedback, and department-led collaboration
