3.A. School Improvement Plans for Bethel Middle School & Bethel High School
Rationale:
As requested, Mr. Watson and Mr. Troetti will be providing a brief presentation on their School Improvement Plans for the 2018-19 school year. The purpose of the presentation is to provide the Board with an overview of the focus of the schools. The major components of the plan were presented at open houses in September, so parents could have a similar overview. The school administration will be presenting an overview of their Theories of Action, student learning outcome measures and major strategies/action steps to achieve those outcomes. We began this planning process as a district in the summer of 2015. These plans were collaboratively developed by teams within each school. Please note, all of the fall PSAT data is not yet available. Specific targets for Bethel High School will be set when testing is completed. |
