SMART GOALS
Specific• What do we need to accomplish?
Measurable• What is the target outcome?
Attainable• What is a reasonable target?
Relevant• Does the goal address an area of need?
Time-bound• Is there a specific time for attainment?
![Page 51: EPlan School-level PlanningePlan School-level Planning September 2014September 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649dea5503460f94ae50e6/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)

Goal Example – fair…
Math Example 1: All students will be proficient in their subject area.
• Evaluating the goal– Is it specific?
» No
– Is it measurable?» Somewhat – 100% proficiency is implied
– Is it attainable?» No – it is not reasonable to expect 100% proficiency in a single
year
– Is it relevant?» Yes – math was identified in the needs assessment; increasing
student proficiency is relevant
– Is it time-bound?» No

52
Goal Example – better…
Math Example 1: For SY 2013-14, student academic achievement will meet or
exceed the expected Achievement Targets.
• Evaluating the goal– Is it specific?
» No
– Is it measurable?» Somewhat – specific targets are not identified
– Is it attainable?» Possibly – more specifics are needed to determine
– Is it relevant?» Yes – math was identified in the needs assessment; increasing
student proficiency is relevant
– Is it time-bound?» Yes – the school year is noted

Goal Example – best!
Math Example 3: For SY 2013-14, student academic achievement will meet or
exceed the expected Achievement Targets. Math 3-8: 50.7%; Algebra I: 51.3%; Algebra II: 32.5%
• Evaluating the goal– Is it specific?
» Yes
– Is it measurable?» Yes – provides targets for proficiency in each subject
– Is it attainable?» Yes – the goal is based on improvement over the prior year
results
– Is it relevant?» Yes
– Is it time-bound?» Yes

Goals, Strategies, and Action Steps
Schools “inherit” goals and strategies from the district plan to ensure alignment between school and district plans
To enter a school-specific goal, schools should “extend” the inherited district goal
To enter a school-specific strategy, schools should “extend” the inherited district strategy
Schools should enter action steps for each relevant goal/strategy (NOTE: LEAs may elect for schools to only select from action bank items entered by the LEA.)
This allows schools to have specific goals/strategies/action steps that are relevant to their school but are still aligned with the district plan.
![Page 59: EPlan School-level PlanningePlan School-level Planning September 2014September 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649dea5503460f94ae50e6/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)

Schoolwide Plan Component Tab
A Title I schoolwide school will see a component tab the right of the plan overview tab.
Before the status can be changed to “Draft Completed”, all component items must have either a relationship to an action step or a narrative entered in the “Explanation” box provided.

Title I Component Items
When a component relationship is made, the goal, strategy and action step titles appear under the component item on the component tab. The school may also enter additional information in the “Explanation” box.
If there is no relationship made, you must enter an explanation of how the required component has been met.

School Plan Approval – by Principalor designee
Once the school plan is in the status of “Draft Completed”, the Principal, or designee with the School Plan Reviewer user role, must review the plan and change the status to indicate the plan has been “Approved” or “Not Approved”
![Page 73: EPlan School-level PlanningePlan School-level Planning September 2014September 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649dea5503460f94ae50e6/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)

LEA School Plan Reviewer:Component Tab Items
After the school has approved its plan, the LEA School Plan Reviewer should verify the checked component items to ensure the school has adequately addressed each item.
![Page 74: EPlan School-level PlanningePlan School-level Planning September 2014September 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649dea5503460f94ae50e6/html5/thumbnails/74.jpg)
74
LEA Approval of School Plan
Once the school plan is in the status of “School Plan Reviewer Approved”, the LEA staff with the appropriate user role, will review the plan, ensure the plan is comprehensive and meets all requirements.
The LEA School Plan Reviewer will then change the status to indicate the plan has been “Approved” or “Not Approved”.
If “Not Approved” the LEA can provide feedback to the school via the “School Plan Checklist” at the bottom of the sections page.
![Page 75: EPlan School-level PlanningePlan School-level Planning September 2014September 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649dea5503460f94ae50e6/html5/thumbnails/75.jpg)
75
LEA School Plan NOT ApprovedCHECKLIST
After the school submits the plan, the LEA will review and mark each section in the checklist as • OK, or• Attention Needed.
If the plan contains no items that are marked as Attention Needed, the plan can be approved.
![Page 76: EPlan School-level PlanningePlan School-level Planning September 2014September 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649dea5503460f94ae50e6/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
76
Checklist – Attention Needed
If the plan contains items that are marked as Attention Needed, it will be returned to the school with a status of “Not Approved.”
Each section marked Attention Needed has a place where the LEA may provide an explanation of necessary changes.
The school should check for notes and additional comments and make the necessary changes within the plan.
Only the checked items in the sections marked Attention Needed are to be corrected and/or explained by the school within the plan.
![Page 77: EPlan School-level PlanningePlan School-level Planning September 2014September 2014](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070412/56649dea5503460f94ae50e6/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
77
Checklist and Approval Process
Once the school has made the necessary adjustments to its plan, the school will resubmit the plan for approval.
If the LEA determines that the item has been corrected, Attention Needed will be changed to OK by the LEA.
If the items needing attention still have not been corrected, the plan will be returned again to the school with a status of “Not Approved”.
Plans where all items are OK will be approved.
