How can we ensure our staff teams value and in time, rely upon the examination of data and evidence to truly inform the critical work we do with our students?

In this workshop, you will learn:


Why data and evidence is a foundational component for any school’s Collaborative Response.


10 considerations that will shift the collection, organization and utilization of data from a time-consuming and potentially overwhelming task to an integral part of how we target clear next steps in our school

Data informs! When schools have a targeted plan for the collection and utilization of data and evidence related to student success, conversations become more focused and staff can see the impact their collective practices are having for students!


In this webinar, Kurtis will share ten considerations, along with templates and samples for school leaders to assist when establishing a school-wide data and evidence plan, focused on the key measures being used to inform priority areas.
