SPECIFIC DETAILS
Examples using TILS Standard A, Indicators 1 and 3; you will need to do a similar preparation for all four TILS, addressing a majority of all Indicators for each standard.
Standard A: Instructional Leadership for Continuous Improvement:
An ethical and effective instructional leader facilitates professional practice that continually improves each student’s learning.
1. Indicator one of TILS A discusses the collaboration with stakeholders to establish clear communication for the vision and continuous improvement of the school. Communication skills are very important as an administrator. It is important to be able to communicate the reason for the change being made and the vision of how the change can benefit the school and its goals. Communication needs to be clear and purposeful. The stakeholders need to know that the change is in their best interest and that it is for improving the overall goals and vision of the school as a whole.
2. Builds capacity of educators to provide each student a rigorous curriculum aligned with the Tennessee Academic Standards. Use your own wording for this indicator as is appropriate.
3. Collaborates with educators to analyze and use multiple forms of data throughout the year to establish specific goals and strategies targeting each student’s achievement and growth.
Collaboration is key to being a successful leader. It is important for an administrator to collaborate with educators to ensure that things are being completed and done properly. Although this is important to ensure things are being completed, it is also important to remember not to micro-manage. Allow the teachers to collaborate with each other and develop plans that will best benefit their students. Only intervene when there is a necessary change that must be made. The teachers know their students’ academic strengths and weaknesses more than anyone, so allowing them to analyze data and collectively develop plans and strategies that will benefit the students, will ensure that Indicator Three in Standard A is met. Along with collaboration, it is also important to support the teachers in the changes they are making to their instruction. Support their areas of needs in developing plans and strategies to meet targeted student achievement and growth.
4. Empowers educators to develop and execute interventions to address each student’s learning needs, grounded in multiple sources of data (academic, social, and/or emotional). Use your own wording for this indicator as is appropriate.
5. Systematically monitors and adjusts progress toward established goals and facilitates procedures and practices leading to continuous school improvement. Use your own wording for this indicator as is appropriate.
