Welcome to Continuous Improvement Module #3: Measures for Improvement & Equity. In this module, we will look at measures that directly connect to your goals and drivers in your driver diagram

Welcome to Continuous Improvement for Equity Module #2: Developing a Working Theory of Improvement. In this module, we will explore the components of the driver diagram, also known as a working theory of improvement, that illustrates the causal pathway between the changes you make for improvement and your intended goals or outcomes.

In this module we will explore the four main types of data cited in the Comprehensive Needs Assessment Toolkit, a supporting document that can help guide your continuous improvement planning, as well as other steps to ensure you take a systemic approach to data analysis when assessing your current state. 

The Vermont Agency of Education (AOE) launched a competitive grant in January 2024, with American Rescue Plan Elementary and Secondary School Relief (ARP ESSER) state set-aside funding, to improve student learning in computer science, English language arts (ELA) and literacy, and mathematics. Consistent with the State's Education Recovery Plan and primary recovery strategies and goals, this funding opportunity supports Local Education Authorities (LEAs) in improving academic outcomes by focusing both on addressing the specific harms caused by the COVID-19 emergency and improving the core functions of our schools.
