🌱 HI WIGS

25-26 HI WIG #1: Implement a system-wide monitoring process that utilizes collaborative instructional teams who meet regularly to review student data from screening, progress monitoring, and common formative assessments (CFAs) to identify next steps for instruction. (Intentional Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3 instruction)

• ✅ Lead Measures (to get us there):

  • Intentional Core Instruction: Students are doing the talking (thinking); teachers are asking questions to encourage students to think and generalize what they know to new situations.

  • Intentional Core Instruction: Teacher teams will use information from CFAs and real-time observations during core instruction to strategically target skills that will accelerate achievement.

  • Special Education & General Education Collaboration: Teacher teams will proactively collaborate with SPED on daily core instruction, CFAs, and accommodations to ensure access to grade level curriculum.  

  • Educational Equity: How will we get EVERY student there? A collective responsibility to provide students with what they need, when they need it, and with an urgency to master essential outcomes.

  • IXL: Students will engage in personalized learning plans to reach proficiency (80%) in one skill a week in ELA. 

  • iReady: Students will engage in the iReady/MyPath personalized learning tool to meet the minimum weekly expectation of 30-49 minutes of instruction with a 70% passing rate. 

25-26 HI WIG #2: Prioritize social/emotional personalized learning through explicit instruction, modeling, classroom norms, school rituals/routines, and caring attention.

• ✅ Lead Measures (to get us there):

  • Character Strong SEL Curriculum: Tier 1 daily instruction.

  • Attendance Team: The office attendance team will monitor excessive absences by proactively sending out 7-day & 10-day absence letters and excessive tardy letters (10+ tardies) each week.

    • Chronic Absenteeism rate will be communicated each month via school parent newsletter, as well as grade-specific rates through individual classroom newsletters.

  • Mindful Mornings: 8:00-8:30 daily, building-wide. Students know they can softly enter the school day through friendship and connection. Device-free.
