PowerWalks Hero Schools (January 2013)


In furtherance of a LYS Nation tradition, we will take this time to tip our caps to the campuses that have embraced the most important step in creating and maintaining an action oriented professional learning community.  These are the campuses that have conducted an extraordinary number of formative classroom observations in a given month.  There were a total of 11,886 PowerWalks (Outstanding Job) conducted during the past month and the January targets for Hero School designation were:

Big Schools – 265 PowerWalks Observations
Medium Sized Schools – 190 PowerWalks Observations
Small Schools – 115 PowerWalks Observations
Very Small Schools – 60 PowerWalks Observations

For February, due to the short month, weather and a federal holiday, we’ll maintain the January targets.

Now without further adieu, here are your thirty-five PowerWalks Hero Schools for the month of January 2013.  Congratulations!!!
