SUBJECT:  
Root Cause Analysis and Goal Setting with TSI Schools


In preparation for the state’s annual resource allocation review (RAR), teams from schools that have been identified for targeted school improvement (TSI) are invited to a series of workshops that will assist school teams in examining current instruction, conducting a root cause analysis, and then setting strategic goals to address those problems of practice. Thus, schools will walk away from the workshops with a viable, strategic, and robust plan that can be implemented as part of future RAR, LAND Trust, and TSSA plans.

The workshops will address both qualitative and quantitative data from four categories: Achievement, engagement, access, and attendance. The data we will analyze will come from various sources, including Tableau, ELLevation, and Panorama. The workshops will be highly collaborative, so principals are encouraged to bring a team. Besides the principal, team members could include an assistant principal, instructional coach, lead counselor, special education team lead, ELD lead, etc.

The workshops will be offered in a series of three half-day sessions. Tier 2 and 3 TSI schools will attend their own sessions separate from Tier 1 TSI schools. For a list of Tier 1, 2 and 3 schools, please click here. School teams need only attend one half day per session.
