School improvement seems to be the hot topic over the last few years in the educational world. I was one of those teachers when I first began that would roll my eyes when I would heard data and SIP plan. Eventually I was put on a school improvement committee which opened my eyes to a whole new world of information that our administrators and school board used to make sure our students and teachers needs are being met. When I started taking this class I felt like I had a good idea of what was going to be involved, but didn't realize what I was in store for. I had no clue how time and effort was spent collecting and analyzing data to make sure our school and system was working effectively. I found out a great deal of information about Moody High School in the process of taking this course. While taking this course I remained on our schools continuous school improvement team and was able to give added insight about the directions that we should take to help make our school better. I was also able to show my presentation to the committee and receive feedback about its contents. I was also able to help open their eyes to some ways that we could improve our school. Overall I found this course very informative, but also inspirational for future collection purposes. I now know who to ask and where to go to get the right information in a timely manner.
