Common Formative Assessments (CFAs)
Just a word from our PLC Facilitators
History Department PLC by Penny Willard
During the 1st Semester we worked to complete a new World History Pacing Guide. This was a great opportunity for the team to come together and provide great resources for our brand new teacher, Mr. Brown. The latest History PLC accomplishment was the formation of a Common Formative Assessment (CFA) that was used in all U. S. History classes. The team worked to schedule this assessment allowing for all 3 teachers provide consistent instruction.

Assessing the PLC Process
- All PLC groups submit a Google Doc that documents their work during each session. This serves as a source of communication between the PLC groups and our MAHS Administrators. Additionally, Dr. Morrison is able to clearly see what is going on within our school.
- All PLC Facilitators are consistently assessing the progress of their PLCs. The communication doesn't stop on Monday afternoon at 3:45. This is a new process for everyone. Therefore, the PLC Facilitators support one another through consistent communication. When there is a question about a new process they have someone to lean on. All MAHS PLC Facilitators also depend on the support of Olivia Byerly (PLC Leader for MAHS) to provide clarity regarding new strategies or procedures.
PLC Goals for the 2nd Semester
Our PLC groups are striving to grow by focusing on DuFour and DuFour's Guiding Questions:
- What do we want our students to learn? (STANDARDS)
- How will we know they are learning (ASSESSMENTS)
- How will we respond when they don't learn? (INTERVENTIONS)
- How will we respond when they do learn? (EXTENSION/ENRICHMENT)
