Your school-based team should meet with the faculty and discuss what issues need addressing. Your SIT should allow feedback from all staff on what needs to be addressed. The plan must then be submitted to your Local School Board. Association staff have visited and held after-school meetings and workshops at over 20 schools that have asked for some form of assistance. To date most meetings and workshops have been to clarify the ABCs legislation, review information on how school-based teams should operate, and to discuss the high school ABC model.
ALL Children can learn is easily said but less easily implemented.
All staff should be accessible, and have planned meetings with small student groups. Schools should have high expectations for the physical environment as well as the academic environment. This may sound trite, but true reform happens primarily in the classroom in the interaction between teacher and student. Assessment should be child-centered and data driven. Children learn differently and teachers must try different methods to teach all children effectively.
