Have Measurable Goals
A school district should focus on everything from student achievement to quality teaching to community engagement when constructing their goals. Goals will help drive what data a school collects. Therefore, engage in action planning where goals are written to reflect a purpose (objectives), strategies, and well-defined outcomes that indicate success. It should be recognized that student achievement is more than the results of one test and school boards know that the community holds them accountable to well-defined outcomes.
