Flip the Mindset: Implementing High Expectations for a Once Low-Performing School
Presenters will share the background of a once low performing school who became a model of school improvement through a tight focus on high expectations for all students and three essential practices – changing school culture with systems of school-wide expectations, using high leverage instructional practices within a multi-tiered system of support, and using data effectively to focus on individual student growth. Outcomes include: an understanding of three essential practices. a structure for difficult conversations. an action plan template to bring back to their team. a critical view that all students deserve equity of access to these practices. The presentation will include multiple opportunities for collaborative activities including a variety of partner share structures and a give one, take one strategy to elicit further feedback from colleagues. They will receive a jot sheet to take notes, reflect, and plan for implementation in their own buildings.
