PowerWalks Hero Schools (March 2015)

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. In March, the Hero Schools met or exceeded the targets below:

The March Hero School Targets

Big Schools – 225 PowerWalks Observations

Medium Sized Schools – 150 PowerWalks Observations

Small Schools – 80 PowerWalks Observations

Very Small Schools – 40 PowerWalks Observations.

For April, due to holidays and state testing we will adjust the targets:

The April Hero School Targets

Big Schools – 215 PowerWalks Observations

Medium Sized Schools – 140 PowerWalks Observations

Small Schools – 75 PowerWalks Observations

Very Small Schools – 35 PowerWalks Observations.

For the record, the schools in the LYS nation conducted a total of 5,273 PowerWalks observations this past month.  But enough stalling, here are your eighteen PowerWalks Hero Schools for the month of March 2015.  Congratulations!!!
