Problem-Solving School Level Data using Inquiry Cycle
Welcome … and sit within Grade Levels (ES, MS, HS)

3. How does/has Pasco defined PLCs

4. It is an expectation of the district

5. 3 Big Ideas Professional Learning Communities
Focus on a Collaborative Culture
Collaborative teams whose members work interdependently to achieve common goals
Focus on Learning for All (Students and Adults)
Focus and commitment to the learning of each student
Focus on Results
Assess efforts on the basis of results rather than intentions
These are the three big ideas of PLCs.
DQ 2: Critical Information

6. Problem-solving plcs Bridge to Support School-Level Data Discussions
There are a lot of teams at schools that look at data in various ways. There have been many steps toward establishing tiered level problem solving. This and future trainings are intended to hone and calibrate our thinking – decision-making protocols at each level. Schools may be in different places with respect to PS/MTSS/PLCs. This training is about orienting/learning what is standard for Pasco County and where you are in relation to the standard (gap analysis) and what areas you need to make steps this year to fully engage in PS/MTSS/PLCs using EWS and other date.

7. “If you are not looking at data, you are not doing Professional Learning Communities (PLCS)” - Richard DuFour
Classroom Level PLCs: How can PLCs in Pasco County systematically analyze and make decisions based upon student and instructional data?
School Level Problem-Solving PLCs: How can PLCs in Pasco County systematically analyze and make decisions based upon school level early warning system data? And then support and inform Classroom Level PLCs?
In our training, you will prepare for school-level data conversations utilizing student early warning system and other standards-based data. Specifically, you will:
Orient to the compelling whys of PS/MTSS and School Level PLCs
*Assess school level teams and areas of improvement (compare/gap analysis with current teams)
Facilitate the inquiry cycle to identify areas of need, connect with the most effective school level intervention needs and strategies, develop action plans, and monitor the outcomes. Today:
Assess the health of your building
Identify the students most at-risk for failure
Begin to analyze root causes of data
Task for the Year and Task for the Day. Allowing some processing time. Specifically this is the model in DSBPC re: PLCs

Academics Are there school trends* that need to be communicated to inform classroom PLCs?
Course Performance
(Credits, GPA)
School-wide standards-Based Assessments
Content/Strategy PLCs
Benchmark Assessments
Unit Assessments
Classroom Assessments
Formative Assessments
Attendance
Are students at school?
Must have integrated data – each child is 1 – made up of academics and behavior not separate. We must look at our data this way too.
Visual reflects relationship among PLCs and where to start and/or focus efforts based on data.
----- Meeting Notes (10/14/14 08:27) -----
add engagement to previous slide and talking points
Behavior
Are students adhering to rules, routines, expectations?
*by grade, content area, subgroup (students with disabilities, minorities, etc.)

9. Think about range of Student Behaviors required for Deeper Learning
Must have integrated data – each child is 1 – made up of academics and behavior not separate. We must look at our data this way too.
Its about the academics and the academic/social-emotional behaviors that are required to learn. - link back to deeper learning
