EDLD 5333 Week 3 and 4 Reflection

It is important for an administrator to make decisions to continually better their campus.  As a campus principal, it is important to lead your staff to successfully improving data by researching current methods that have been proven to work and start to implement them.  Professional developments are always essential to getting your teachers prepared and ready for any changes to assist with campus improvement.

My campus has identified the Hispanic subgroup being the area of weakness.   With my campus action plan I suggested the school provide after-school tutorials for students at risk of failure on Wednesdays and Thursdays 4:30pm -5:30pm at Saturday school 8:00am -12:00pm.  The formal evaluation to test this strategy is to improve students at risk or in danger of failing overall achievement through tests, benchmarks, STAAR or other assessments. Another strategy I suggested for my camps action plan is to include campus wide professional development in differentiated instructional strategies and skills specialists to use campus-based best practices to guide differentiated instruction, planning, training and implementation.  This is to aide teachers in instructional decision making, interpreting and responding to students’ successes or failures, adjusting any areas of weakness to promote student achievement.
