Mililani High School
Academic Review Team Report
An Academic Review Team is charged with planning, doing, checking (monitoring), and taking action (next steps) for strategic projects and initiatives. Key leaders must have regular routines in place that facilitate dialogue and action around student outcomes aligned with the strategic plan. These routines are focused on achieving measurable success. The ART must analyze whether strategies and enabling activities are having the desired effect on outcomes. At the school level, the ART will systematically and consistently review the extent to which the school is successful in meeting the measures in the academic plan, and take appropriate action as necessary. Essentially, the ART Reports will monitor the school's ability to meet student needs as identified through the State Strategic Plan, Academic Plan, and WASC Accreditation (Focus on Learning) Self-Study Report.
ART focuses on three key elements that should be present in a strong ART routine:
Routines are focused on a common purpose
Routines identify problems and commit to clear next steps
Routines encourage learning and collaboration
Innovation in Support of the Core: School Design & Student Voice
Mililani High school's Vision & Mission were revised, which informed the development of the School Design and provides context and direction for school-wide initiatives.
Mission: Innovate, Cultivate, & Support
Innovate - develop/add programs that meet the needs of the students (based on data and student voice)
Cultivate - based on data collected and student voice, the school will determine which programs need to be cultivated
Support - based on data collected and student voice, the school determines what specialized supports are needed
Student Voice is captured through the RSVP process, which is conducted by our student government group ASMHS
