Unlocking the Potential in All of Us What we continue to learn … NEXT STEPS at UHS ● Our ACT, AP, and SAT scores are among the best in the country ● School Start Time Initiative is going very well in its first year of implementation ○ Continue to seek feedback from stakeholders ● 9th grade ChromeBook pilot is off to a great start ○ Held student focus groups to gain their feedback

Unlocking the Potential in All of Us NEXT STEPS at UHS (cont.) ● All teachers and administration have a presence on the Canvas Learning Management System ● Continue to review our curriculum alignment to State Standards to further inform our practice

Unlocking the Potential in All of Us NEXT STEPS at UHS (cont.) ● Provide opportunities for UHS Teachers to work with colleagues to help to understand student specific growth data in our summative assessments ● District committee formed to review bell/period schedule at CFPMS/UHS

Unlocking the Potential in All of Us NEXT STEPS at UHS (cont.) ● We continue to examine ways that we can improve each day focused on a #UHSMindset of “Kindness”
