7.A. Review the Nebraska Continuous Improvement External Report.
Discussion:
Superintendent Wiseman updated the Board on the results of the External review. The review team commended the House System and the HAL (High Ability Learners) programs. They were also pleased that our school makes option enrollment a priority. It was stated that our staff is deeply committed to every student and did awesome during the audit.
One area of focus was maintaining a safe environment for students and staff. Also, continue to focus on rule 10, the MTSS Assessment, and Professional Development. A few things listed in the improvement action plan were to develop a K-12 MTSS, K-12 decision rules, and to merge CIP and Tier One processes. The first step is to celebrate the staff. Then staff and administration will commence data analysis and set goals. |
