Lake County Schools College and Career Readiness Instructional Framework Key Performance Indicators School Improvement Plan Florida Standards Professional Learning Community FCIM MTSS LESSON STUDY Personalized Learning Desired Student Outcomes Statement of Work Content Cultural Behavior Process Interventions Capacity Building Autonomy of Learning The School Improvement Plan (SIP) is the written plan of how we will reach our goals each year. The critical elements include: Organize: Stakeholders plan and assess needs based on data. Plan: Stakeholders set goals and objectives, identify strategies and measures of success. Implement: Implement activities and monitor progress. Sustain: Identify success of current plan, evaluate and adjust to sustain growth. Florida Standards are a set of high-quality academic standards in mathematics and English language arts/literacy (ELA). These standards outline what a student should know and be able to do at the end of each grade. 6 Key Elements for Instruction: 1. Knowledge and Use of Florida Standards 2. Common and Collaborative Planning Time 3. Interdisciplinary Content Integration 4. Frequency of ProjectBased Learning 5. Student Collaboration 6. Integrated Technology The guiding principles of Professional Learning Communities (PLC) govern the behavior of our school professionals. The big ideas are: Multi-Tiered System of Supports is a problem solving model that represents the integration of MTSS for academics and MTSS for behavior into a unified model of service. The basic problem-solving components include: 1. Problem Identification 2. Problem Analysis 3. Intervention Design 4. Response to Instruction/ Intervention Lesson Study provides a structure for teachers to collaboratively plan lessons share, observe, record and analyze data to improve instruction. The key concepts are: 1. Collaborative Planning 2. Lesson Observation by Teachers 3. Data Collection and Analysis Guided by Student Thinking, Learning, Engagement and Behavior 4. Reflection, Refinement and Reteaching as Necessary Personalized Learning (PL) is a system that cultivates independence and self-governance of learning expectations through the expansion of choice and inclusion of voice in a flexible learning environment. PL Key Elements: 1. Student-directed Learning 2.Learner Profiles and Paths 3. Competency-based Learning 4. Flexible Learning Environments 5. Structures of Accountability, Continuous Improvement and Innovation 1.Increase proficiency rates on FLKRS/ECHOES & FAIR (PreK - 2nd grade) 2.Increase proficiency rates on ELA and Math FL Standards Assessment 3.Increase proficiency rates on FCAT 2.0 Science 4. Increase proficiency rates on EOC’s Algebra 1, Geometry, Biology, Civics and US History 5.

Increase participation and performance on PERT, SAT and ACT 7. Increase AMO percentages for all subgroups (Achievement Gap) 8. Increase the graduation rate 9. Increase attendance rate 10. Decrease disciplinary infractions The Florida’s Continuous Improvement Model (FCIM) is a systematic process for planning, teaching, assessing and re-evaluating results. It is the road map that directs our actions. Plan Do Check Focus on Learning: Act All students can learn and we are PDCA Instructional Cycle responsible to ensure PLAN DO learning occurs. Focus on Collaborative ACT CHECK Culture: Time is specifically reserved for collaboration on teaching and learning. Focus on Results: Effectiveness is measured by results, not intent. • Data Disaggregation • Calendar Development • Direct Instructional Focus • Tutorials • Assessment • Enrichment • Maintenance • Monitoring New Beginnings 2013 MARZANO/TEAM FRAMEWORK Communicating Learning Goals and Feedback Establishing Rules and Procedures Helping Students Interact with New Knowledge Helping Students Practice/Deepen Knowledge Helping Students Generate/Test Hypotheses Engaging Students Planning/Preparing for Lessons and Units Planning/Preparing for Resources & Technology Planning/Preparing for Special Student Needs Developing/Monitoring a Professional Growth Plan New Beginnings 2013 21ST CENTURY SKILLS TONY WAGNER, THE GLOBAL ACHIEVEMENT GAP 1.
