PowerWalks Hero Schools (November 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.  For the month of November, the PowerWalks Hero School Targets were as follows:

November Hero School Targets

High Schools – 150 PowerWalks Observations

Middle Schools / Junior High Schools – 120 PowerWalks Observations

Elementary / Intermediate / Combined Campuses – 100 PowerWalks Observations

Alternative Schools – 50 PowerWalks Observations

With both the end of the Fall Semester and Christmas Holidays in December, we will adjust the targets to the following levels:

December Hero School Targets

High Schools – 120 PowerWalks Observations

Middle Schools / Junior High Schools – 90 PowerWalks Observations

Elementary / Intermediate / Combined Campuses – 80 PowerWalks Observations

Alternative Schools – 40 PowerWalks Observations

In November, all of the schools using the PowerWalks Instructional Observation System conducted a total of 11,047 classroom observations. A commendable job, LYS Nation! But now, without further ado, here are your thirty-three PowerWalks Hero Schools for the month of November 2015.  Congratulations!!!
