In order to increase communication and support, a weekly feedback form will be linked below. This is an optional form for any staff member to utilize as a feedback tool. You may share how the week went, any challenges you faced, shared positive message about a student, share maintenance needs, etc. Please take the time to provide feedback if needed.


Keep in mind I do not see who gives the feedback unless you put your name. If you are expecting feedback or issues to be address, then you must leave information for me to follow up with.

Above All, Student Success!

Professional Learning Communities


Using Common Formative Assessments to help reflect on practice.

CFAs are designed to do two things:

  • Identify students who are struggling and/ or excelling.
  • Improve (and reflect on) our professional practice.


The process of reviewing CFA Data:

  • Meet with team.
  • Bring assessment data to team meeting.
  • Follow team norms.
  • Compare your results with your colleagues to identify effective instructional practice.

There must be trust among your team.


Common assessment data tells us if we need a tool or skill.


Tool = something to help you reach this group of students.


Skill= a learned/developed aptitude or ability.
