SMART Sheets flow into School Improvement Plans.
As you work through your Comprehensive Needs Assessment, you record your Evidences of
Need. The Evidences of Need come from a variety of data sources, depending on the focus
area. The Evidences of Need are written on this SMART Sheet, called so because it contains
everything a SMART goal requires, but in a different format – that makes it easier to work
with in a Comprehensive Needs Assessment.
Two sheets, the SMART Sheet (above) and the Strategies Sheet
(right) keep your work together for a focus area – and together,
make up the components needed for an effective school
improvement plan. You can handle two sheets.
