Goal Setting

The Natrona County School District has set a course for student success by identifying key components to improve student achievement, by targeting interventions for at-risk students, and by focusing on across-the-district professional development for teachers.

In pursuing this course for success, and in response to NCSD's status as a district in need of improvement under the No Child Left Behind Act, NCSD developed a district improvement plan. The plan was developed by a task force of teachers, administrators, parents and community members.

Though the district did make adequate yearly progress (AYP) under NCLB in 2006-07, the district improvement plan provides a path to continue improvement for our students.

Goal setting and the Plan-Do-Study-Act framework provides a guide for teachers and schools to focus on data and making decisions based on the data. See ways you can implement the P-D-S-A in your classroom!
