Communicating district processes to increase performance, engagement and productivity

The start of the new school year brings practicing of routines as well as setting consistent expectations for behavior and academic success. I have seen this in classrooms all week long.

At the district level, we also want to be clear on our priorities for schools. As part of our SAIL (School Administrators Institute for Transformational Leadership) work, we strive to have robust communication around our district mission, vision, goals and processes. We know that if we are clear on our priorities, just as you are, then we set everyone up for increased performance, engagement and productivity that will lead to an increase in student success as defined through community, college and career readiness.

Next week, all of our Principals will be presenting their SAIL work during a review that happens in September, December and March. Each Principal is asked to demonstrate evidence in the following leadership areas--L1: Focusing direction; L2: Cultivating high leverage practices; L3: Professional learning; L4: Ensuring excellence and L5: Communicating data and results.
I have included the success indicators below for your review.

Thank you for your commitment to our core values of shared responsibility, communication, teamwork and high expectations for all!
