Growth and Proficiency are important to monitor. It is also important to have high expectations for all learners. Focus on what the teachers need to do, not what the students need to do. It is imperative that the PLC+ has strong norms and follow them.

# data[].attributes.body
One belief we feel is necessary within our schools is realizing and accepting that all children can grow regardless of their starting point, and high expectations need to be set for all students within the school.

# data[].attributes.body
Open communication; providing a safe space for everyone. We should have shared beliefs and values around high student expectations.

# data[].attributes.body
Understanding the impact (and definition) of teacher efficacy. If we all understood that it means believing in each other and having the students and our colleagues know that we believe in them. Teachers need to know their role in individual student success.

# data[].attributes.body
Know the PLC+ process prior to implementation.

# data[].attributes.body
A limited amount of school staff has completed the PLC+ training.

# data[].attributes.body
PLC needs to understand the process and how to keep the five questions at the forefront of the conversation. Teachers also need to be masters of the content they are teaching and be willing to reach out when needed.

# data[].attributes.body
If these strategies are presented in a way that make teachers (creating buy-in) want to participate. It's not another thing, but a tool and resource to promote success.
A barrier would be not having teaching buy-in. It could turn teachers away from using these strategies. Sometimes teachers are afraid of trying something new, so building that trust.

# data[].attributes.body
Expected outcomes are common across all grade levels and are consistently being met.

# data[].attributes.body
Setting norms could both support and be barriers depending on whether or not something they have been using them. Teachers themselves can be barriers as well, especially when changing what they are used to.

# data[].attributes.body
-students deserve for us to have high expectations of them
-see problems as opportunities
-seek to problem solve

# data[].attributes.body
The belief that every student can achieve growth.

# data[].attributes.body
-show a level of understanding

# data[].attributes.body
Acknowledging that pathways will vary.

# data[].attributes.body
Teacher beliefs in student ability

# data[].attributes.body
High Student progress and achievement

# data[].attributes.body
-school schedules
-time within a day to get all stakeholders around the same table
-staff turnover
-staff changes in PLTs

# data[].attributes.body
Buy-in is from the top down, and also within each PLT. PLTs are implementing PLC + because they believe in its value, not just because they were told to. At the same time, the school wide expectation is to uphold the PLC+ model.

# data[].attributes.body
In-depth understanding of the standards

# data[].attributes.body
Defined expectations

# data[].attributes.body
Equity. Belief that students and teachers can achieve.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Fidelity to the PLC+ process is important 2. Having high expectations for all students is aligned to equity work 3. Belief in the validity of the data 4. True commitment to PLC+ work

# data[].attributes.body
Knowing standards and learning progression.

# data[].attributes.body
-Non-compliant PLT members.
-PLT members who focus on things they cannot control.
-Time!
-Lack of knowledge/skills; stubborn; ego

# data[].attributes.body
Knowledge of what does "success" or "proficiency" in a standard look like?

# data[].attributes.body
Knowledge of what "different pathways" to learning a standard may look like

# data[].attributes.body
Support: Process in place to unpack standards and take a "deep dive" into what student learning should look like, feel like, sound like, etc.

Barrier: Time for unpacking

# data[].attributes.body
Improved student achievement

# data[].attributes.body
Support: PLC+ book, activators, time, resources, realistic expectations for what can be accomplished. Barriers: time, lack of access to resources, lack of stability with grade level teams, teammates being unwilling to be part of the process.

# data[].attributes.body
Student growth and achievement levels, change in teaching practices, willingness of team to share strategies, buy-in from all team members

# data[].attributes.body
Student achievement, student sense of value

# data[].attributes.body
Ditto: Group 9
Knowing all students can reach our expectations.

# data[].attributes.body
We need to expect ourselves to have high expectations for all students.

# data[].attributes.body
Consensus building...are we all in agreement of what the expectations are?

# data[].attributes.body
About to move into a new school year after finishing a different school year, it's the time to make any changes within our PLT/PLC

# data[].attributes.body
We need to build on what is already there....building on what we are already good/leveraging our assets to work smarter.
