Interpreting the data to determine if there is sufficient evidence that the tested practice is exceptional.

Action Steps
Step 1-review the evidence threshold previously set by the team
Step 2-discuss the extent to which the evidence is sufficient to confirm
Step 3-use the decision tree to decide next steps

Notes
For each promising practice ask guiding questions on pg. 133. Don't give up if practice is not confirmed, look for more evidence.

Tips
-Make sure you use the confirm phase decision tree to determine direction of PLC.
-Don't get frustrated and celebrate small wins!

Each academic focus group will continue to assess the data and look at specific student strengths and weaknesses in each skill as identified in I-Ready. Our behavior focus group will input most recent data and document consequences that were assigned to data wall.

Action Steps
1. Use I-Ready scores for Math and Language Arts. Look at the sub-category for each to identify strengths and weaknesses.
2. Look for resources
3. Look for interventions
4. Look for resources and interventions for our behavior group.

We are working to understand baselines. The définition of it and accumulating student outcomes, current teaching practices and existing conditions for colaboration. Student baseline assessments and test results and teacher surveys and observations. We need types of évidence that will clearly démonstrate progress such as assessments, student portfolios and squares. We need to look at how we grade and label what we grade.

Summary
We are considering splitting into PLC areas - writing, math, and LIM .  We will use the STEP process to begin writing and math, while continuing in the Seek phase with LIM. Our action steps for LIM are as follows: 
1.  Begin staff training proactive behavior - circle in control and proactive/reactive language, followed by training in subsequent habits.
2. Create a positive environment and culture of leaders with language, decor, student leadership opportunities, and understanding of the 7 habits.
3.  Review staff LIM survey with committee.
4.  Gather updated on SEL with classroom observations by all staff members.

Summary
We created a new PLC focused on our ILT goal of improving math proficiency. We unpacked standards so that we can look at data relating to those standards.

Action Steps
Gather data as it relates to computation in each grade level.

Notes
Based on teachers' observations, fact fluency is a school wide need. We will look at data to confirm a need and create a challenge and aim statement.
