1) Substantial, measurable and positive impact on student academic achievement

teaching the Common Core State Standards well, creating common formative
assessments to drive our instructional practices, and to create and implement

assistance/instruction. This data will help inform individual teacher/team instructional

student's progress in specific skill areas, not simply in mastery of content. This change
more acourately reflect a student's ability, rather than on behaviors and other
non-academic categories.
