Writing the Plan. The plan is written by a team. The team plays a vital role in analyzing data and determining goals, strategies, and action steps. The Principal is a key leader in the process and understands the plan. Weaknesses in the Needs Assessments are addressed throughout the whole plan. All parts of the plan are connected and related. Communicating the Plan. The plan is communicated to and approved by the Board and signed by the Principal, Federal Programs Coordinator, and CIP team. The SIS and Principal/leadership team plan together how they will effectively communicate the plan to faculty, staff, parents, community, and students. Implementing and Documenting. All teachers understand the plan and "work" the plan. All teachers contribute to documenting evidence of their support of the plan. Conducting a Thorough Check Point. LEAs, with the assistance of the SDE, conduct a thorough checkpoint of all CI Plans evaluating the goals, strategies, action steps as they relate to the needs assessment and make recommendations. The LEA checks the Culture Page and Professional Development page to make sure it addresses the identified needs. Monitoring and the Seven Reviews. The LEA/SIS assist the Principal in conducting the seven reviews. The LEA/ SIS assist the schools in preparing/preplanning the reviews. The LEA/SIS assist the schools in determining how feedback and support is given after each review. The plan is fluid and reflects necessary changes/additions after each review. 7
