90-90-90

I'm at a 90-90-90 conference and learning a lot of great information that is reaffirming what my school is currently doing.  For those of you who are unfamiliar with 90-90-90, the definition of a 90-90-90 school is approx. 90% minority students, 90% low socioeconomic status, 90% high proficiency.  The key ideas is the formation of highly effective PLC's (or what they define as Data Teams), excellent instruction that includes common formative assessment and a laser like focus on student achievement.  We are currently doing so much of this that it is comforting knowing we are on the right path!
