Mission, Vision, and BeliefsMission, Vision, and Beliefs

Mission Statement: Why do we exist?Your Mission/Purpose Statement describes your current reality. It needs to be crystal clear and only one line long.

Vision Statement: What do we wish to become?Whereas mission establishes an organization's purpose, vision instills an organization with a sense of direction. It asks, “If we are true to our purpose now, what might we become at some point in the future?”

Belief Statements: What do we value?Beliefs are the assumptions we make about ourselves, about others, and about how we expect things to be. Beliefs reflect how we think things really are.

Leadership team:

Meets monthly to look at all school wide academic and behavior issues- various members attend relevant PD. Team works with MEAP, DIBELS, SWIS, etc. Provides leadership for SI and for PLC/GLMs – ensuring clarity of responsibilities and accountability (monitor, feedback)

MATH team:Meets as needed to review

School Improvement Team:Made up of all staff or

representatives of goal area teams… may rotate. Meets monthly to review progress on goal area strategies. Discusses roadblocks and need for changes to the plan. Evaluates outcomes.

School Process Rubric ExampleSchool Process Rubric Example

Getting Started Partially Implemented Implemented Exemplary

Teachers provide an initial outline of a unit of study but the specific goals and objectives of the unit are not made clear to the students.

While all teachersprovide students withan initial unit outline,some teachers also preview the goals andobjectives of the units of study with students.

A process is in place for all teachers to preview the goals and objectives of the units of study with students.

A system is in place that provides all teachers with a developmentally appropriate way ofarticulating the curriculum to their students.

Teachers provide meaningful examples of real life application of the goals and objectives of each unit of study.

At the beginning of a unit of study, students are provided a clear understanding of how the goals and objectives will be assessed.

Documents written in student-friendly language are translated into other primary spoken and written languages of the schooland are reviewed orally.

Strand I - Teaching For Learning » Standard 1 - Curriculum » Benchmark B - Communicated

Key Characteristic - I.1.B.2 Students: The school makes a concerted effort to assure that all students have a clear understanding of what they are studying and why they are studying it.
