Without evidence, it is impossible to know if your efforts are creating the change you hope to see. Selecting an evidence-based initiative, rolling it out in a way that can be studied, establishing goals to know what success will look like, and monitoring your efforts will allow you to know if your actions are working. 

Learn more about our self-monitoring initiative for the 2022-23 school-year through this overview video.
