Designed for instructional leaders, the Data Driven Decision Making trainings will support instructional planning from summative assessments through formative assessments to support daily instruction. Sessions will build upon each other from accessing granular data from the California Educator Reporting System or CERS, connecting the data to assessment blueprints, and develop a thoughtful and deliberate formative assessment system for the new school year.  Resources from the Smarter Balanced Ecosystem that connect to the focus areas will be shared and utilized.  Research based data analysis routines will be utilized during this process to support student learning and outcomes.

Universal Design for Learning (UDL) is called out in every content area framework and also in MTSS, as a way the work of “All means all” can come to life. But what does that mean for leaders in theory and in practice? Join us for one, two or all three sessions as we explore UDL and its implications to our work. Sessions will be facilitated by Elisa Torres-Barton, FCSS Executive Leadership Coach & CAST UDL Implementation Specialist.
