Spencerport Central Schools More Effective Schools/Teaching Project Documents.
Spencerport Central Schools, NY.
During the 1982-83 school year the Spencerport (New York) Central School District began a comprehensive project to study the effective schools research and its implications at all levels of a suburban school system. A leadership planning team (consisting of teachers, principals, and district personnel) participated in a series of workshops and submitted a districtwide master plan to the superintendent and board of education. Each school then developed its own action plan based upon results of a disaggregated analysis of student achievement and a needs assessment profile of the building. These plans were implemented during the school years 1983-84 and 1984-85. This nine-part collection of documents produced during the years of the Spencerport project includes the following titles:"Report of the Leadership Planning Team to the Superintendent of Schools, June 13, 1983"; "Conducting an Effective Schools Program," a paper by Robert E. Sudlow; "Second Overview, July 1984"; "First Annual Report, October 1984"; "Executive Summary of the First Annual Report" (Robert E. Sudlow); "Effective Schools: Annotated Bibliography"; "What Is an Effective School?" (Robert E. Sudlow); "Second Annual Report, September 1985"; and "Executive Summary of the Second Annual Report" (Robert E. Sudlow). (IW)
