School Level Planning

• Schools identified as in Warning (September 2011) are no longer required to submit a School Level Plan.

• It is highly encouraged for Warning schools to develop School Level plans for two reasons: • School Level Planning provides a guided opportunity for schools to

examine their systems to determine those areas that need attention

• A School Level Plan would be ready for implementation should such a plan be required for the following year (2012-13). 

• If a Warning school is assigned 2012 School Improvement I status in September, a plan will be required by November 30, 2012.
