Superintendent outlines three priorities in draft district improvement plan
Summary
Superintendent Dr. Wenzel presented a draft district improvement plan focused on shifting central office to support principals as instructional leaders, building principal capacity, and strengthening teacher collaboration via PLCs. He said the plan will return for board approval in October.
Superintendent Dr. Wenzel told the board the district's draft improvement plan is organized around three core ideas: the central office shifting to support principals as instructional leaders, a concentrated development of principal leadership and capacity, and stronger teacher collaboration through Professional Learning Communities (PLCs).
"The 3 big rocks are that the central office shifts to be able to help principals become stronger instructional leaders," Dr. Wenzel said, describing how central office realignment, targeted principal coaching and PLC partnerships are intended to drive improved student outcomes. He said the district will present the plan for board approval in October alongside school improvement plans.
Dr. Wenzel also described a three-year PLCs-at-Work partnership to embed common practices and identify essential standards in math and language arts, and noted the district used a peer cohort of eight demographically similar districts to set measurable goals for math, ELA, attendance and graduation.
