Initiative Integration: Getting the Most Out of CCSS and Educator Effectiveness
Direct Access to Achievement
This training is made possible through a partnership between Oregon Department of Education and your ESD, and supported by a Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems grant from the U.S. Department of Education.
When our efforts aren’t integrated and aligned…how likely is our actual progress?
The likelihood of progress increases when we integrate essential elements of new initiatives using a systems approach to align our efforts.

CCSS and Educator EffectivenessIt’s the Data
Centennial School District
2010 - 2011
• Developed pacing guide/”starter” curriculum maps based on Common Core
• Invited principals to attend a 2-hour introduction to the data teams process
• Gave slots to buildings and had them sign an MOU agreeing to participate– Buildings could “buy” more slots
• All buildings signed on – had 96 names
2011 - 2012
• Trainer met with principals to get sense of staff understanding of PLCs/use of data
• Three sessions (2 elementary, 1 secondary)– Principals participated along with their staff
• Three half-day trainings– First day – Overview of process– Second/third days – Guided Data Teams process
using their data• Developed cycle notes
2012 - 2013
• Changed PLC schedule to allow for coach support• Trained 50 additional staff in 3 half-day sessions• Set expectation of 3 cycles for the year focused on CCSS• Trained building coaches to support the process• Re-trained staff on steps 2, 4 & 5• Worked with principals on providing feedback on the
cycle notes• Introduced notion of running agendas• Revised cycle notes (end of year)
2013 - 2014
• Continue with PLC building schedule• Added Educator Effectiveness– Data has taken on a greater sense of urgency
• Sent 52 elementary teachers and principals to ATI training (Stiggins)
• Pair data teams/assessment literacy to train staff how to write good classroom-based assessments– Follow-up with guided data teams training focused
on using the assessment data to inform instruction
Lessons Learned
What Worked Principal is keyInfrastructure was in place (pacing guides/maps)Persistence/ willingness to retrain when necessaryStructure/scaffold the conversation more at firstOngoing coach support Trust the process
What would we do differentlyPrincipals had varying degrees of comfort with leading this processFeedback on cycle notes made the conversation all about the formTeams struggled more when only part of the team was trainedBe clear about the connections between initiatives up front
Moving Forward
• Develop a clear vision for integration of CCSS and Educator Effectiveness– Can’t have “one more thing”
• Keep data front and center – Use student data to inform instruction– Use adult and student data to measure effectiveness
• Electronic version of cycle notes/feedback system for staff
• Differentiate support for staff

• What: • Professional Learning Teams (PLTs) are structured collaboration with
learning as the central goal. Inherent to a PLT is a persistent disquiet with the status quo and a constant search for a better way to achieve goals.
• Why:o PLTs/Data Teams are the strongest form of professional development
and are structured to get results in teaching, learning, and leadership.
o PLTs help us to identify specific teaching and leadership actions that have been taken to cause gains in student achievement, helps us to replicate success and helps us eliminate actions that do not produce intended outcomes.
o Schools and districts, acting in alignment as a system, make improvement through data-driven inquiry and continuous learning.
o PLTs help us inquire, learn more deeply, and provide opportunities for developing leadership, ownership, and accountability across the district

LINK TO MODEL CORE TEACHING STANDARDS
1. Collect and chart baseline data to determine needs.
2. Create specific learning goals based on pre-assessments.
3. Create and implement teaching and learning strategies
4. Monitor student progress through ongoing formative assessment process
5. Determine whether students achieved the goal
1. Collect

6. Monitor and
Evaluate results
● Train new staff on PLT process (Over 100 Early Childhood Providers)
● Train Elementary Student Achievement Specialists on coaching Data Teams
● Revise the PLT reporting document○ Elementary aligned with Forward and new
teacher evaluation○ Middle and High School aligned with Common
Core○ Early Childhood aligned with Creative
Curriculum and new teacher evaluation● Communicate the connection of PLT Work to
Student Learning and Growth Goals in the Evaluation System.
ACTIONS FOR 2013-2014 SCHOOL YEAR
Goal: Create a data literate culture in which teachers are able to effectively analyze common assessments to prioritize needs, align and implement research-based instructional practices to meet needs, and monitor the results.• Conduct training and coaching to ensure that a solid K-12
PLT/Data Team structure exists district-wide.• Provide time for the Administrative PLT Initiative Team to meet to
review academic and behavioral data. Allocate resources and support based on data from these meetings.
• Train all K-12 staff on how to effectively create and implement Common Formative Assessments.
• Train all K-12 staff on the process of Analyzing Student Work. • Train identified teacher leaders and coaches on the Quality
Review Rubric to ensure K-12 teachers can evaluate if their lessons are aligned to the standards and determine the level of rigor of their lessons.
GOALS FOR FUTURE PLT WORK
Integrate essential elements of new initiatives using a systems approach to align our efforts.
