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 5,767 PowerWalks conducted during the
past month and the April targets for Hero School designation were:
Big Schools – 220 PowerWalks
Observations
Medium Sized Schools – 160
PowerWalks Observations
Small Schools – 90 PowerWalks
Observations
Very Small Schools – 50
PowerWalks Observations
Due to Testing and end of the
school year events we will adjust the May targets as follows:
Your May Hero School Targets
Big Schools – 175 PowerWalks
Observations
Medium Sized Schools – 120
PowerWalks Observations
Small Schools – 75 PowerWalks
Observations
Very Small Schools – 40
PowerWalks Observations
Now without further ado, here
are your twenty-two PowerWalks Hero Schools for the month of April 2014. Congratulations!!!
