It is our hope to grow instructional practices, adult leadership skills, and professional learning with a focus on equity. Participants will also strengthen their leadership skills in a collaborative effort to bridge the gap between teachers and administrators. This cohort will meet face-to-face three times and then in virtual space four times (one hour each) over the school year in order to develop their equitable lens as a team. Asynchronous support and course work are also available.

10/27/2020The SWIS Suite is a reliable, confidential, web-based information system to collect, summarize, and use student behavior data for decision making. Research tells us educators can make more effective and efficient decisions when they have the right data in the right form at the right time. SWIS provides school personnel with the information they need to be successful decision makers. For more than a decade, SWIS Suite has assisted teams to improve their internal decision making and overall support plan design for individual students and their families. The three SWIS applications, SWIS, CICO-SWIS, and I-SWIS, align with a PBIS framework and provide the needed data for both universal screening as well as progress monitoring. Additional resources will be mailed. Registration Deadline: 10/26/2020
