You can’t ease into excellence It demands high levels of effort and

energy and motivation and passion in addition to content knowledge.

I like to think of it as a mission of the heart.

What does excellence look like?

Characteristics of high performing schools Clear and shared focus High standards and expectations Supportive learning environment High levels of collaboration and Communication Emphasis on Professional Development Curriculum and Instruction aligned with state

Use appropriate data to drive decisions
