Phase III describes a process for schools to continue to implement building needs through improved follow-along services and communication via an electronic network. Moving to a full inclusion model necessitates a period of planning to identify resources and training needs to return all students to their neighborhood school and to provide educational opportunities for all students. This project outlines five activities to guide a school in planning school improvement. The function of this team is to provide leadership in initiating, managing and facilitating the collaborative process of school improvement. Membership of this team needs to be representative of the school and neighborhood.
Parental involvement is encouraged.
Team size is limited to a number that is most conducive to effective group dynamics. Develop a Building Profile. The purpose of the building profile is to identify the resources that are available in the school and in community and to describe the characteristics of the school and its students. This information may be collected using the Project Building Profile Form. Develop a Mission Statement.
