Agenda Item Summary: The Board has been invited to attend the upcoming quarter 2 chats for schools within their district and will receive a presentation of mid-year progress at the March 19 School Board Meeting. This Board Brief provides a summary of the overall purpose and structures associated with the upcoming quarterly chats with school teams and central office leadership.
Background: Beginning in 2018-2019, Alexandria City Public Schools (ACPS) undertook a revised School and Department Improvement Planning process. The revised improvement process included school-based quarterly chats. These chats serve as an opportunity for schools and Central Office staff to develop a shared understanding of progress, ensures alignment of services, and foster collaboration around the critical work taking place at each school.
Recommendation: The Superintendent recommends that the School Board review this Board Brief and attachment for an understanding of the purpose and structures for the upcoming school quarter 2 chats.
