Essential Questions for School Improvement

What problem are we trying to solve?

1. • Must set clear and firm expectations to articulate the problem or issue that requires action.

What changes might we introduce and why?

1. • Requires key stakeholders to develop, implement, test, and further develop changes to processes or practices.

How will we know if a change is actually an improvement? 

• • Examine whether the change has, in fact, addressed the identified problem and made a meaningful improvement.
