Standard 3.2

Overview

Tiger Academy holds bi-monthly professional learning communities with each grade level (K-2nd) or subject area (3rd-5th). One PLC per month is dedicated to analyzing data and guiding instruction that is based on the students’ needs. Teachers meet weekly to complete grade level planning. At least one of those meetings is on data and how to guide instruction and small groups. Data used for analysis includes formal and informal observations and assessments, summative and diagnostic assessments, and weekly iReady data and assessments. The specific type of data used depends, in part, on the time of year (beginning, middle, or end).
