Join us as we delve into Indistar®, a web-based tool that will guide your district team as it prepares their next Continuous Improvement Plan (CIP) and discover how the tool can be used to managing the continuous improvement process. School teams will learn about creating comprehensive achievement plans (CAPs) and monitoring progress within Indistar®.
Note: All Title 1-A Schoolwide Plans must be transitioned into Indistar® beginning in September 2016. Take advantage of these training opportunities to make sure you are ready!
District-level training will be held at each site from 9 a.m. to 12:00 Noon. School-level trainings will be held from 1:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. unless there is no district-level training being held at the site. In those cases, school-level trainings will be held from 9:00 a.m. to
12:00 noon.
The indicators and the focus of each training are specific to either the district or school level. If you choose to participate in both trainings, you must register for each one separately at http://www.ode.state.or.us/news/events/.
