Specific Roles of ILT?

Notes:
What does the vision statement mean to you? Take two
minutes..talk with a partner.

Krista: I want to be thinking differently this year and everyday I am

trying to be purposeful and impactful. Our vision needs to be
inspiring. I want something that is going to help us move forward.
This vision statement is I already do that.

John: Impactful implies that we are making impact and there is

data that shows we are making impact. If not, something needs to
change. Maybe we are not making at much impact as we would
like to believe we are. Impact academically, socially, etc.

Greg: This is about adult behavior. Impactful and data, are we

making gains that we need.
Morgon: Is there language/structure that you feel reaching higher
or stronger? Question to Krista!
Krista: I dont like the word staff. Its all encompassing. Wondering:
This vision is important. Are we going to come back and read
before every meeting? How is this going to help us?

John: ILT Institute attended a pd on OLT/ILT session led by

leadership team from Edison. They explain what OLT/ILT looked
like at Edison High School. ILT was more focused on instruction
and they worked with teachers. Ours focuses more on systemic/
wide array of things.

Damon: A lot of committees we have the same people on them.

What impact does that have?

We are not voting on the ILT vision statement. People want to

continue to work on the statement.

Lisa: we have to things about the words we use.

For the next two weeks, everyone construct a vision statement

and things of words you would you.

Morgan adds: think about what inspires you?

We will table this until next time.

families

Letter to families: Eric Moore

When the kids take the test, a red light is coming up or the test is
telling us that the kids took the test too fast. We did not know the
kids have to retake the test. And students can take up to 30 more
questions the second time. They should not retake the test right
away.

More red flags came with Kindergarten. It was challenging. It was

invalid. Kids didnt know how to use the number pad. No tutorial.
 By 4/5 grades, the red flags were minimal.

It is a lot easier to implement as an adult. In that sense, it is easy.

Krista:
For conferences, what information do we have to provide parents?

Ann:
Letter from Eric and a test report will be provided to teachers to
give to parents. It is parent friendly.

Krista:
Can we get a quick lesson on how to use the test results?

Closing 5 mins Next steps and plan next ILT agenda
