  16. Reviewing the Goals Do you have the MI Proficiency Targets included? Do you have an academic goal for each content area not meeting or beating the state? Is there anything you would consider modifying/altering?

  17. Sample Plan • Goal: All students will increase proficiency in math. • M.O.-100% of students will increase MME scores by moving from 44.5% to 54.5% • M.O.-100% of students will increase growth on PLAN by 2 points by moving from 15 to 17 • M.O.-100% of students will increase their proficiency to 85% on their math final exam in each course. • Strategy-Teachers will provide additional MTSS Math instruction opportunities for students (*research based-D Fuchs, LS Fuchs (2006). Introduction to Response to Intervention: What, Why, and How Valid Is It?. Reading Research Quarterly) • Activities- • Tier I-Teacher will use small group instruction with manipulatives • Tier II-Students will attend “Boost” classes every Wednesday • Tier III-Students will attend afterschool E2020 credit recovery until their course average rises above a 65%.

  18. Goal Evaluation As a team, log in to ASSIST and go to the Goals & Plans tab Enter the Current Plan & view PDF

  19. Goal Evaluation Identify which goals are ACTIVE, MAINTENANCE, or REVISED. Which goal will your staff have the least amount of difficulty with implementation of strategies? Which goal will your staff have the most amount of difficulty with implementation of strategies?

  20. Key questions to think about • What is needed to accomplish? • What administrative support to achieve the intended results? • What is the needed professional learning during implementation? • What will we have that there are sufficient resources – including financial and time - to achieve the intended results? • What opportunity for staff collaboration? • What structures are in place to collect and review implementation data?
