90 Day Action Plan as the Assistant HS/MS Principal for Mayville Community Schools. 4/8/2015 Christopher L. Kidd 1 The 90 day plan needs to be broken into 3 sections. 4/8/2015 1. Before the school year starts. (July-August) 2. After the school year has started and starts to take shape. (August-September) 3. Near audit time and per/pupil count day. (September-October) Christopher L. Kidd 2 July-August 4/8/2015 Start to establish good communications with the office personnel, staff, maintenance and custodial services for the school. Familiarize myself with board policies and contract language that would effect all members in the Mayville Community School System. Make sure to have in place an organized and easily understood discipline code. The discipline code of conduct has to address minor and major infractions and have consequences for violating rules. The discipline policy has to be fair and consistent. Any discipline policy must have positive reinforcement along with knowing up front that there are rules to follow and consequences when rules are broken. Mayville presently uses the Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support or (PBIS) system. Christopher L. Kidd 3 August-September 4/8/2015 Make sure the big discipline/trouble times for students are monitored. These times include before school, after school, at lunch and passing times between classes. These need to be monitored by help from the staff and myself. Be well versed on the student code of conduct. Meet with every staff member for a short meeting before the school year starts. Ask about concerns or issues that I need to be informed of as a new contributing member to the Mayville Community. This meeting will open the very important lines of communication needed to work in a Professional Learning Community. Christopher L. Kidd 4 August/September- Continued Try to lower the number of discipline problems in the school by: A. Being visible (let the students know their actions are being watched). B. Provide a set of rules everyone follows. C. Having students understand that there are both rewards and consequences for every action you are involved in. D. Develop/Have in place a discipline system that helps students be accountable for their actions. Offer staff in the same discipline the same conference or prep time. This helps the staff to be able to share ideas and discuss issues of relevance to the students. Show by EXAMPLE: (Teachers, Administrators, and other staff), the importance of good communication with one another, along with good school spirit and pride in Mayville JR/SR High School. Send out to the community a letter introducing me to the community and asking for parents, community and staff to feel comfortable coming into the school to express ideas and concerns. 4/8/2015 Christopher L. Kidd 5 September-October Run a consistent and fair approach to student discipline. Make sure all aspects of Discipline and Attendance for the Mayville JR/SR high school are running effectively. Keep in constant communication with the Principal regarding issues and concerns for the Mayville Schools. Keep in mind the per pupil count and what can be done to attract more students to Mayville. Pop-in visits of all staff. These are short 5-10 minutes .These visits continue to open the lines of communication between staff and it will give the students the opportunity to meet with you outside the office. Try to work towards knowing all of the students names and a little about each of them. Attend as many as possible extra curricular events so the students, staff and the community get the opportunity to meet you. Stay dedicated, well prepared and organized to make a great school year happen as Mayville JR/SR High School assistant Principal. 4/8/2015 Christopher L.
