A New Way of Work
• Naytahwaush School moved from 2nd lowest performing school in MN to the middle to become a Celebration School.
• Increases in proficiency in both reading and math occurred over the past year due to active and intentional management of the school improvement process.

• The percentage of Native American students at Naytahwaush who are considered proficient on Minnesota state accountability assessments increased by nearly 15 percent in one year.
The Story of Naytahwaush
Making It HappenEffective Change Requires Active Implementation
Letting it happen– The ‘What Will Be Will Be” Approach – Recipients are
accountable
Helping it happen– “Do It Yourself” Approach – Recipients remain accountable
Making it happen– Purposeful and proactive use of implementation
practice and science– Implementation Teams are accountable
Based on Hall & Hord (1987); Greenhalgh, Robert, MacFarlane, Bate, & Kyriakidou (2004); Fixsen, Blase, Duda, Naoom, & Van Dyke (2010)

Usable InterventionsAn intervention needs to be teachable, learnable,
doable, and be readily assessed in practice
• Help schools and districts choose interventions wisely based on:– Needs of students– Best evidence– Fit and Resources Required– Readiness and resources for replication
• Help schools and districts operationalize the “WHAT”– Practice Profiles (example of a tool)
• Help schools and districts make space for the new work– Supportive policies and practices
Usable Interventions…
We tend to over-estimate how well defined “it” is!Usable interventions that are well-defined have positive implications for sustainability and scalability.

Lessons Learnedhttp://youtu.be/LDTSWJDSiU8
o Using Implementation Best Practices is not a program or initiative – it is a way of work.
o We are addicted to ‘doing’ so it goes against the grain to “just do it.” It takes time.
o What is adopted must be used by adults with fidelity to ensure good outcomes for students.
o Working in teams is challenging – go alone to go fast. Work in teams to go far.
