2. Is this focus widely known throughout the district or school?
3. Are we able to resist certain pulls and tugs that are peripheral to our purpose and focus?

ASSESSING OBSTACLESCOMPLIANCE VS. ENGAGEMENT AND COMMITMENT
1. How much ownership is there among all of the adults in the district or school and how do you know?
2. Is there ownership just at the top, or do people throughout the district or school feel genuinely committed to the instructional improvement goals?
3. How much does it seem people are working to someone else’s goals vs. meeting a goal they own or co-own?
4. Are people participating productively during meetings?

THE CHALLENGE OF ENSURING HIGH QUALITY IMPLEMENTATION…
The world will never be perfect because people are imperfect. But a faulty world creates countless opportunities for individuals to keep learning and growing. And people with a strong sense of social interest will work together to solve problems out of real concern for each other, the community, and the environment.
