TRANSFORMATIONAL REDESIGN PLAN APPROVED!!!!

FLINT SOUTHWESTERN CLASSICAL ACADEMY

7TH – 12TH GRADE

POINT OF PRIDE

The Approved Transformational Redesign Plan was a result of a building-wide effort of consolidating the AdvancEd and the IB Reviews.

PROBLEM THAT LED TO THE POINT OF PRIDE IMPLEMENTATION

How did it start?

• Priority school identification

• AdvancEd School Review

• IBO Re-Authorization Visit

The problem was that we needed to increase student achievement through aligning program requirements.

HIGHLIGHTS

Analyzed various data sources (AdvancEd report, IBO report, MI School Data) to develop school-wide instructional initiatives to raise student achievement

EVIDENCE OF EFFECTIVENESS

All stakeholders had the opportunity to reach consensus on our “three” big ideas:

• CLIMATE AND CULTURE

• ACADEMIC VOCABULARY

• CRITICAL THINKING AND PROBLEM SOLVING

CHALLENGES• Gathering stakeholder support

• Elimination of collaboration time

• Lack of financial resources

• Several Staff changes

• Several Master Schedule changes
