SYSTEMS FOR CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

Perry and Associates, Inc., has worked with administrators to develop a system of continuous improvement that starts in the central office and ends in each classroom. We have convened study groups of district and school leaders to examine and develop a framework for collecting and analyzing data to improve student achievement. We also have supported the knowledge and skills of district leaders to support continuous improvement in schools. Part of our thinking about improving central office capacity is discussed in our recent article in New Horizons for Learning.
