1 Laramie County School District Number One

2  A discussion protocol designed to focus groups on key questions.  A way to collect feedback from participants in a safe holding environment.  An opportunity to work in small groups and see and hear the discussion of others.

3  Make sure you are seated in three groups each with a mixture of K – 12 staff.  Each group will identify a host or hostess.  The host/hostess remains at the table throughout the session.  The host will share the discussion from the previous group(s) each time a new group comes to the table.

4  Each table will have a different question to discuss.  Participants are encouraged to capture their thoughts by writing/drawing them on the paper covering their table.  Table sessions will be twenty minutes in length including time for the summary.  After the twenty minute session, participants will move to the next group to hear a summary of the previous discussion, address a new question, and to add their thoughts to the paper.  After each group has addressed all three questions, participants will return to the original table.

5 1. What would it look like if our triad worked together to increase graduation rate? 2. What are the barriers and assumptions that prevent us from increasing graduation rate? 3. How can we ensure the work in our triad aligns with the other triads to produce outcomes that matter to all?

6  When each group returns to their original table, their host/hostess will summarize the discussions of the three groups that visited the table.  The group at each table will then discuss and come to consensus to select four “pearls of wisdom” that they feel are most important to the question.  The four pearls should be circled.

7  Have each table group present their question to the entire group and share the four “pearls of wisdom”  Ask for any clarification or discussion  Repeat until each table has had the opportunity to report out.  Collect the 12 “pearls of wisdom” electronically.

8  Have each table group present their question to the entire group and share the four “pearls of wisdom”  Ask for any clarification or discussion  Repeat until each table has had the opportunity to report out.  Collect the 12 “pearls of wisdom” from your entire group and give to a Senior Leadership team member.

9  This activity is the first step in developing a K-12 dialogue that will continue throughout the year.  Principals will share the “pearls of wisdom” that have been compiled by all groups.  Have a great lunch and report back to your school level group at 12:45.  Bon Appétit
