Getting Ready for School Improvement
Do we have the ability - the knowledge,
experience, and skills - to plan and
implement school improvement
initiatives?
Are we willing – do we have the
confidence, commitment, attitude, and
motivation - to plan and implement
school improvement initiatives?

Willing
Description
1. School Improvement Team (SIT) members and staff understand that
the continuous school improvement process is a process, not an event,
and that the first “round” will take a number of months to complete.
2. SIT members know and understand the various requirements for school
improvement (PA 25 and Title I), as well as the timeline for completion
of each of these requirements.
3. Staff members have an understanding of the common vocabulary.
4. SIT members and staff develop a Mission, Vision and Belief Statements
that focus on actions that will improve student achievement.
5. SIT members are able to locate resources that provide support for the
School Improvement process.
6. There is a process in place that ensures alignment between the school
plan and the district plan, i.e. the district plan is informed by the
building plan.
7. SIT members and staff follow a team protocol that values individual
input into decision making.
8. Staff members are able to use multiple types and sources of data for
decision making.
