Listed below are the "Classroom Rounds" tools that can be used to document student learning, CIP progress, and cognitive coaching strategies. Each school's principal and CIP coordinator may edit or update the forms, as needed for their schools. These forms are not punitive in nature; rather, the observer documents the evidence that occurs or is visible (as opposed to what is not). Feedback on online forms can be immediately provided to teachers and principals.

"Call Me, Maybe" Back to School Video for Teachers

The Central Office wanted the teachers and students to know that we can participate in project-based lessons too. This video was shared on the first day of our district-wide inservice called "Institute" coming back from the summer. The teachers loved it. The video features our superintendent, CFO, accountants, district administrators, lunchroom managers, and other CO staff.
