  4. Connecting the Priorities Strong students Strong content Strong teachers Strong systems Educator evaluation supports teachers and promotes instructional shifts • Frameworks incorporating Common Core Prepared to succeed in the world that awaits them after high school • Curricular tools • Instructional tools • Analytic tools • Powerful ELL instruction • Development opportunities

  5. A suggested framework for thinking about the work Frame the essential question: How do I continue to improve student learning in my district? • Identify strategy that will have the fastest impact in your district. • Make that strategy central to your district goals. • Use the educator evaluation system to track the ongoing progress of your district, school, and individual educators. Remember that every objective does not require the same depth of attention at the same time. Some are in a more developmental stage.

  6. What is strategy? • Strategy: “The set of actions an organization chooses to pursue in order to achieve its objectives. These deliberate actions are puzzle pieces that fit together to create a clear picture of how the people, activities, and resources of an organization can work effectively to accomplish a collective purpose.” • Stacy Childress in Strategy in Action, p. 3

  7. Why Strategy?? • Forces us to prioritize and make choices about what to do and not do • Helps us be intentional rather than reactive • Allows us to marshal resources • Focuses on the few key things that will allow attainment of vision; filters the noise

  8. OUR ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS • What should students, teachers, leaders, know and be able to do? • How will we know students, teachers, leaders are performing up to standards? • How can we support the work necessary to advance the district?

  9. MPS Strategy Overview

  10. Our Goal • To develop and sustain a stimulating, adaptive, and supportive learning environment, that nurtures and respects the individual and cultural diversity of our members, where an authentic enthusiasm for life-long learning exists, and where all strive to be responsible, engaged, and informed citizens able to meet the challenges of a 21st century world.
