  1. Ohio Improvement Process (OIP) Training for ESC Representatives Fall 2008

  2. Core Principles of OIP • Treat the district and all its schools as if they are a unit and are part of a state system of public education • Use data effectively at each level: classroom, building, district, ESC/SST, state • Focus on improving instructional practice and student performance • Align improvement efforts • Initiate and institute Leadership Team structures and practices

  3. Ohio Improvement Process • Describe the Process — keep it simple and focus on improving instructional practice • Standardize the Process — consistency • Facilitate the Process • Power tools • Hand tools • Trained personnel • Guidance (simple is better) • Train constantly • Market the Process — internal/external

  4. Essential Elements • Define Leadership in Terms of Practice • Superintendent • District Leadership Team (DLT) • Building Leadership Team (BLT) • Data (of course) • Ask essential and probing questions • System • All the parts must be integrated and connected

  5. OLAC Beliefs/Assumptions • The purpose of leadership is the improvement of instructional practice and student performance, regardless of role; • Ohio’s leadership system must be anchored in teaching and learning, focused on building community, and directed to ensuring the success of all children; and • A common and collective understanding of essential practices or behaviors is needed to create a coherent leadership development system.

  6. Who's To Blame? The college professor said, “Such rawness in a student is a shame. Lack of preparation in the high school is to blame,” Said the high school teacher: “Good heavens! That boy’s a fool. The fault of course, is with the middle school.” The middle school teacher said, “From such stupidity may I be spared. They sent him up so unprepared.’ The primary teacher huffed, “Kindergarten blockheads all. They call that preparation – Why, it’s worse than none at all.” The kindergarten teacher said, “Such lack of training never did I see. What kind of a woman must that mother be?” The mother said, “Poor helpless child. He’s not to blame. His father’s people were all the same.” Said the father at the end of the line, “I doubt the rascal’s even mine!”

  7. Why Leadership Team Structures? • Shift focus from a single individual to a team that can function as purposeful communities • Distribute key leadership functions • Align and focus work across the system using few district goals • Ensure effective leadership is exercised at all levels of the system

  8. OLAC Leadership Development Framework • Data & the Decision-Making Process • Focused Goal Setting Process • Instruction & the Learning Process • Community Engagement Process • Resource Management Process • Board Development & (District/Building) Governance Process

  9. District Leadership Teams –Primary Functions • Setting performance targets aligned with district goals; • Monitoring performance against the targets; • Building a foundation for data-driven decision making on a system-wide basis; • Designing system planning and focused improvement strategies; structures, and processes; • Facilitating the development and use of collaborative structures; • Brokering or facilitating high quality PD consistent with district goals; • Allocating system resources toward instructional improvement.

  10.
