How will you measure growth? Growth Factors (Baseline & Targets)
Equity 2.A - Multi-tiered System of Supports
For healthy learning and development to take place, students must feel safe and supported across all domains of development—academic, cognitive, social-emotional, ethical, identity, and physical/mental health. This is more likely to happen when learning environments are structured in ways that support the whole child and are responsive to students’ strengths and needs.
Analyze the structure and processes from the initial implementation of the MTSS process in School Year 2023-2024. Recommendations for upgrades will be conducted by the Instructional Leadership Team.
Create an MTSS Team to drive the work and ensure all elements of the recommendations for enhancements to the MTSS Process are implemented. This team will oversee the process.
Conduct monthly MTSS review using the AIR Rubric by the MTSS Team and the Administrative Team.
Conduct quarterly Data Chats with grade level teams to identify supports and interventions for identified students.

Equity 2.B - Opportunity and Access
Differentiated instruction is essential for meeting the diverse needs of Lovin Elementary School students. By tailoring teaching methods, materials, and assessments to accommodate different learning styles, abilities, and interests, we can enhance student engagement, motivation, and academic achievement. This approach fosters an inclusive learning environment where all Lovin students have the opportunity to succeed.
Create a Professional Learning Framework to equip teachers with the knowledge and skills to implement differentiated instruction effectively.
Adjust Collaborative Learning Team time to be facilitated by the instructional coaching team.
Create W.O.W. Days (Working on the Work) - Establish a 15 day rotation cycle for W.O.W. Days to define, design, and implement structures to facilitate differentiation and STEM integration.
Create a Lovin Math vertical team.
Support and Monitoring - Provide ongoing support and monitor the implementation of differentiated instruction:
Establish a team of instructional coaches and mentors to support teachers in differentiation.
Conduct regular classroom observations and provide feedback on differentiation practices. Collect data on LSPI Implementation monthly.
Develop a system for teachers to reflect on their practices and share successes and challenges.
