Glasses

Leadership

The important thing about Leadership is our mission. It is like a pair of glasses, because it enables all stakeholders to clearly see their expectations. It is not a magnifying glass, which focuses in on intricate details. The important thing about Leadership is our mission.


Student and Stakeholder Focus

The important thing about Student and Stakeholder Focus is that the neediest groups and actions to address them are identified. It is like a shovel because it digs deep into our data. It is not a sieve, which filters out. The important thing about Student and Stakeholder Focus is that the neediest groups and actions to address them are identified.

Faculty and Staff Focus

The important thing about Faculty and Staff Focus is professional development. It is like a lighthouse, guiding you through scary storms. It is not a plank you walk alone.The important thing about Faculty and Staff Focus is professional development.


Process Management

The important thing about Process Management is shared accountability. It is like a map, guiding us through the instructional cycle. It is not a bicycle to be ridden alone. The important thing about Process Management is shared accountability.

Measurement, Analysis, and Knowledge Management

The important thing about Measurement, Analysis, and Knowledge Management is it provides a picture of the whole student. It is like a security system because it alerts you. It is not a thermometer, which only measures one thing. The important thing about Measurement, Analysis, and Knowledge Management is it provides a picture of the whole student.


Performance Results

The important thing about Performance Results is it gives us feedback on our efforts. It is like a living flower because it needs constant monitoring and nurturing in order to bloom. It is not an artificial flower, which does not require care. The important thing about Performance Results is it gives us feedback on our efforts.

Strategic Planning

The important thing about Strategic Planning is it identifies common goals. It is like the Olympics, where teams train to win gold medals. It is not a game of cornhole, which is played for fun. The important thing about Strategic Planning is it identifies common goals.
