• Data tracking

• Instructional adjustments

• Curriculum adjustments

Enhancing the District Infrastructure of Supports for Teachers with:

• Targeted professional learning

• Aligned assessments, rubrics, and checklists (ELA, K-8 in 21-22 and 9-12 this year)

Defining Educators’ Shared Goals via:

• Adoption of a PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports) matrix– Goal-Oriented, Respect, Excellence, Determination
