How High Schools Are Different
  • Size
  • Staff expectations
  • Staff is departmentalized
  • More groundwork is needed
  • Teams can become layered
  • Implementation comes more slowly

3
Theyre not as different as they think they are
  • Need all the same components
  • Team development
  • Establishing expectations
  • Teaching
  • Acknowledgement
  • Data
  • Communication
  • It may look different in practice

4
Guiding Principals for the Implementation of
School-Wide Initiatives
  • 1. Establish and/or consolidate a school-wide
    leadership team that enables efficient
    communication and decision-making with large
    number of staff members.

5
Guiding Principals for the Implementation of
School-Wide Initiatives
  • 2. Start small and prioritize time.
  • 3. Identify naturally occurring and useful data
    sources systems.
  • 4. Increase focus on teaching and encouraging
    positive expectations.
  • 5. Maximize administrator involvement.

6
Guiding Principals for the Implementation of
School-Wide Initiatives
  • 6. Involve students and staff to greatest extent
    in decision-making, development, and evaluation
    activities.
  • 7. Increase opportunities for feedback to
    students and staff.
  • 8. Specify and focus on measurable outcome
    indicators.
  • 9. Increase opportunities for academic success
    and competence of ALL students.

7
Concerns
  • Initial buy-in (perceived need)
  • Implementation to fidelity can take 3-5
    years
  • Time for meetings and training
  • Organization of data (overabundance)

8
Final Thoughts
  • Patience is a Virtue Especially in High Schools
  • Administrative Support is Key
  • Starting Small with Pilots in the Actual Setting
    Where You Are Trying to Do this
  • Need for Staff Development and Modeling what We
    are Trying to Teach
