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 Standards2. Common and Collaborative Planning Time3. Interdisciplinary Content Integration4. Frequency of Project-Based Learning5. Student Collaboration6. Integrated Technology

The guiding principles of Professional Learning Communities (PLC) govern the behavior of our school professionals. The big ideas are:

Focus on Learning: All students can learn and we are responsible to ensure learning occurs.Focus on Collaborative Culture: Time is specifically reserved for collaboration on teaching and learning.Focus on Results:Effectiveness is measured by results, not intent.

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 Act

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 Identification2. Problem Analysis3. Intervention Design4. 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 Planning2. Lesson Observation by Teachers3. Data Collection and Analysis Guided by Student Thinking, Learning, Engagement and Behavior4. Reflection, Refinement and Re-teaching 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 Learning2.Learner Profiles and Paths 3. Competency-based Learning4. Flexible Learning Environments5. Structures of Accountability, Continuous Improvement and Innovation
