Learning Systems

Every school district is responsible for creating schools that ensure all students receive an excellent education. This is the foundational work of becoming a learning system. This week, we heard from every school in our district as they talked about their progress monitoring efforts and shared positive trend lines towards achieving their school improvement goals. Transforming practice requires transforming learning and it was obvious through the collaborative presentations that our focus on literacy learning and leadership is stimulating student growth and achievement.

Professional learning exists to advance our practice in order to improve student achievement. We all must focus, with a growth mindset, on individual, team and school improvement in order to ensure systemwide success and student learning success. How has your mindset positively or adversely affected your growth this week?

Learning system leaders see each person on the team as essential to achieving district goals for all students. Stay connected to the purpose and positively engage in helping us build our SDW learning system.
