“SD LEAP”, a DIFFERENT Process
Traditional Way Analyze data Identify areas of
relative weaknesses Set goals to remediate
the shortcomings Develop an annual
plan to achieve the goals
The Indistar Way Educators assess
professional practices Focuses on what
adults do and how students perform
Must focus on both to see significant improvement

SD LEAP is a PROCESS
Not just a planning process, but a learning process for those working closest with students
Professional development process as much as a planning process
Developed with candid discussions by the leadership team with ALL teachers engaged in implementing the process
Opportunity to acquire a deeper understanding of effectives practices and consistent implementation

Features of SD LEAP
![Page 9: In South Dakota Indistar is called SD LEAP South Dakota Leading Effectively…Achieving Progress.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551ab07f5503466b3a8b6049/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Innovation
SD LEAP is a web-based framework to guide high-quality work by the school with built-in flexibility to encourage local innovation.
![Page 10: In South Dakota Indistar is called SD LEAP South Dakota Leading Effectively…Achieving Progress.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551ab07f5503466b3a8b6049/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Indicator Based
School teams assess their current position relative to each indicator in the following categories: School Leadership and Decision
Making Curriculum Assessment and
Instructional Planning Classroom Instruction
![Page 11: In South Dakota Indistar is called SD LEAP South Dakota Leading Effectively…Achieving Progress.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551ab07f5503466b3a8b6049/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What are Indicators of Effective Practice?
Indicators provide the structure for building a continuous school improvement plan, while still allowing each school flexibility and creativity on how it implements the plan. Indicators point the way toward effective practices.
![Page 12: In South Dakota Indistar is called SD LEAP South Dakota Leading Effectively…Achieving Progress.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551ab07f5503466b3a8b6049/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Research AlignmentThe Wise Ways ® tool within SD LEAP links each indicator to a brief summary of related research examples and resources.

Documentation
SD LEAP provides practical web-based documentation for creating agendas, recording minutes, assigning responsibilities, setting timelines, coaching, and monitoring the degree of implementation.
![Page 14: In South Dakota Indistar is called SD LEAP South Dakota Leading Effectively…Achieving Progress.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551ab07f5503466b3a8b6049/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Electronic Reporting
SD LEAP allows schools to electronically submit required documents to satisfy federal and state requirements.
![Page 15: In South Dakota Indistar is called SD LEAP South Dakota Leading Effectively…Achieving Progress.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070307/551ab07f5503466b3a8b6049/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
What makes SD LEAP a Continuous Process? A required number of ACTIVE indicators are
assessed, planned and monitored so the plan is always continuous and on-going.
Schools select a new indicator when one is fully implemented and part of the school culture.
Teams create a living, working, focused document on what the school is “really” doing.
Fully implemented indicators are easily reviewed and revised.

What Support Do Schools Receive in their SD LEAP Work? Schools using SD LEAP within a state share
ideas and support each other DOE will provide Technical Assistant and
support to schools Coaches will guide the schools

Results do not improve unless performance improves
SD LEAP helps schools to focus on:
What does good performance and effective practices look like?
What is the path to achieve it?
