Luce School Improvement Plan Updates
Priority 1 Updates: Achieving Academic Excellence & Equity
At the Luce Elementary School, all teachers are engaging in year-long PD aligned to the PD concentration of their choice. The PD concentrations span from math to Social-Emotional Learning. Also, 14 Luce teachers voluntarily adopted a new literacy program (Lucy Calkins Reader's & Writer's Workshop), and seven teachers have participated in a new writing program (Lucy Calkins Writer's Workshop).
At this time, we have a total of 5 teachers, who are training to be teacher leaders of their respective Collaborative Learning Groups (CLGs) for their grade teams. They have embarked on training to facilitate their peers in engaging in protocols to look at student work, or to plan for their instructional practice.
Priority 2 Updates: Transforming Teaching & Learning
One of the critical key actions for Priority 2 is staff engaging in peer observations. The goal is to deprivatize instructional practice and learn from colleagues. At this time, we have identified the desire to deprivatize practice and are planning on what that will look like as we enter the new calendar year.
I attached the SIP for your review. We will make updates towards our progress on our priorities and key actions.
