Making a Difference
• Four areas in which we would expect to see improvement– Academic growth– Behavior– Student engagement– Culture/climate
Academic Growth
• Data Notebooks – One of the most effective Formative Instructional Practices is students taking ownership for their learning. In Data Notebooks, students track/graph their learning and set goals and can articulate their own strengths and areas for growth.
– Prior to renewal - 0% of students tracked their learning in Data Notebooks
– Now – 100% of our students track their learning and growth through Data Notebooks
