Core Foundations>Safe and Supportive Schools> Describe your entity’s process for identifying gifted children. Describe your gifted special education programs* offered. (The word

“programs” refers to the continuum of services, not one particular option)

Core Foundations>Professional Education> A school district shall provide, under section 1205.1 of the School Code

(24 P. S. § 12-1205.1), in-service training for gifted and regular teachers, principals, administrators and support staff persons responsible for gifted education

“Increases the educator’s teaching skills based on effective practice research, with attention given to interventions for gifted students.”

“Provides the knowledge and skills to think and plan strategically, ensuring that assessments, curriculum, instruction, staff professional education, teaching materials and interventions of gifted students are aligned to each other, as well as to Pennsylvania’s academic standards.”

Analyze Systems

50

Planners engage in data-driven discussions regarding whether or System Characteristics are present in the LEA.

Analyze Systems

51

If one or more System Characteristics are not present (and not checked), the web app will automatically answer the question “no” and create a statement of Systemic Challenge.

If all System Characteristics are present (and checked), the web app will automatically answer the question “yes”

ACTION PLANNING

58

Action Planning

Identify all of the “to-do list” steps that will be needed to implement the Strategies: each “to-do list” step is an Implementation Step

Identify Strategies that have a significant probability of meeting the Action Plan Goal

Select/create a Systemic Challenge to be the Goal of an Action Plan (or create a Goal)

59

After prioritizing Systemic Challenges, LEAs can develop new goals

To build an Action Plan that addresses a Systemic Challenge, click “Include” to the right of the Challenge.

Indicators of Effectiveness are the specific targets for an Action Plan, which, if attained or exceeded, indicate the Action Plan is

being effective.

Action Planning

SMART GOALS (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic and Time-sensitive)

PVAAS growth data based upon 2013 PSSA Math and Reading Assessment results

85% of students involved in at least one intervention program show at least one year of growth.

63

64

Action Planning - Strategies

• Descriptions of proven interventions / best practices

• Descriptions tell “how” goals will be implemented

• Strategies provide significant probability of attaining goal

• Strategies designed for systemic implementation

On the “Action Plan” page, clicking “Create/Import a Strategy” takes a user to the "Create Strategy” page

Click EDIT to edit or ADD an Indicator of Effectiveness

Consider accessing these pages to obtain helpful information; however,

it is recommended the import function not be used because most descriptions will not describe how the strategy will

Once Strategies have been identified, planners should design an implementation

plan —a management tool that will guide the implementation of the Action Plan Strategies.

Action Planning

70

An implementation plan is comprised of all the “to-do list” steps needed to implement the Strategies. Each “to-do list” step is an Implementation Step.

Action Planning

71

Action Planning

The leadership teams from each school will determine the most appropriate groupings of teachers (e.g. grade level, content area, etc.,) that will engage in the analysis of common assessment results to inform those teachers about their collective and individual instructional practices.

72

Action Planning

A list from each school of the teachers in each data team with a postscript that describes the rationale for the establishment of data teams.

• Looking at your current goals, which could be aligned to the two PD implementation steps?

• How would the current indicators of effectiveness for this goal be impacted by the two PD implementation steps?

• How might you adapt this goal and the indicators of effectiveness with the inclusion of the PD implementation steps
