Indistar - Comprehensive Achievement Indicators - Five Key Areas of Effectiveness

Five Key Areas of Effectiveness
District and School Structure and Culture
Educator Effectiveness
Family and Community Involvement
Teaching and Learning
Technical and Adaptive Leadership

Effective schools and districts perform well in each of five key areas, which closely align to the USED seven turnaround principles. Oregon’s definitions of the five key areas, and corresponding turnaround principles, are provided below. Oregon educators consider it important that turnaround principle five (v)-- using data to inform instruction and for continuous improvement, including providing time for collaboration on the use of data -- be woven throughout all of the five key areas. Therefore, this turnaround principle is not listed separately.
