**School improvement parameters (Loose/Tight leadership)**
• Implement by 2011-12, sooner if staff feels ready • Groups of 10-15 students remain with an advisor for four years • Any curriculum used must be developed ahead of time so there is no teacher prep. • Time should meet the need, not the need meet the time • Career Pathways/Kuder curriculum?
 * Advisory program (Loose): Students who are consistently connected to and known by at least one adult in the building have a greater chance of graduating.**

Intervention period (Loose): Interventions need to be as immediate as possible to get extra assistance, to complete work, make-up assessments, and enrichment. • Intervention period could/should be connected.

• Grade 9: next year • Grade 10: 2011-12, next year if staff agrees • Grades 11-12: 2011-12, less structured than grades 9 and 10. How much it ties into teams to be determined Multiple Pathways focus • Rooms reassigned to best support teaming: next year Plan completed and shared with staff by the March 22nd Get feedback from content area Get feedback from grade levels
 * Teaming: (Tight)**

Go over three-team teacher model Go over team class schedule Go over SLC survey results Go over SLC teaming
 * Heterogeneity (Tight):** Within three years staff will be versed in differentiation and classes will be heterogeneous to the fullest extent possible while maintaining appropriate rigor for all students.
