Investing in Partnerships for Student Success

STEP 7: Implement Action Plans

PURPOSE

Use this template to clarify, classify, organize, and monitor each committee?s activities. Note that this process should align activities closely to action committee (partnership) objectives.

DIRECTIONS

For each committee, identify specific activities that support partnership objectives. Classify these activities in terms of low (supplemental) to high (strategic/systemic) levels of involvement. Note the expected/actual time frame for completion of each activity. List the resources allocated for each activity. Indicate if activities were/were not accomplished; include comments.

QUESTIONS TO ASK

  1. Are partnership activities aligned with and focused on partnership objectives? Have you established safeguards that ensure the monitoring of this alignment?

  2. Do activities have an "improvement of learning and student achievement" focus?

  3. How would you classify activities?

    1. Supplemental (such as resources provided, events)

    2. Programmatic (such as volunteerism, adopt-a-school, internship program)

    3. Systemic/connected/strategic (such as alignment of efforts with school improvement plan, focus on improvement/ changes/reorganization of management and delivery of instruction)

  4. Has a manageable, record-keeping system been put in place?

  5. Is the budget designed to be flexible if costs exceed budget and adjustments must be made?

  6. Are there sufficient and appropriate financial, human, material and in-kind resources to support these activities? If not, are strategies in place for the ongoing identification, recruitment, allocation, management, and use of resources?

  7. Are tasks/activities completed as scheduled? If not, why not? How can these challenges be overcome?

  8. Is training provided as appropriate and needed for educators, community members, and families?

  9. Has a plan for regularly networking/communicating information, strategies, and the like been developed and implemented?

UPON COMPLETION OF STEP 7, you will have prioritized and organized the activities for each committee. These activities will be focused on and support partnership action committee objectives.
