Strategic School Intervention Plan

1. 2.     In addition to school/district administration, consult with and obtain input from at least four other affected stakeholders/stakeholder groups.

Stakeholders could include any of the following, as appropriate: students and their families; school personnel; representatives of diverse populations within the school community (cultural, ethnic, racial, economic, and special interest groups);advocates for students with special and exceptional needs; agencies which provide health, social, and other human services; business, community, and government leaders; political,
religious, and service organizations; and institutions of higher education. Seek understanding of how this project will meet the needs of the population/community.

1. 3.     Research policies, legal issues, and funding sources applicable and draft a needs analysis.

• Research the      district’s current policies for reporting safety and/or      accessibility issues and the processes for making needed repairs or      renovations.
• Research and      identify any potential legal and      ethical issues which will need to be addressed.

• To provide funding for the needed improvements and/or repairs, study the school’s or district’s existing and projected facilities budgets, the school’s or district’s strategic plan (if available), and historical records on bonding/capital projects in the school or district.Research available grants. Prepare a budget which addresses each project component including funding sources. These may include existing dollars, projected dollars, special bond elections, state/federal grants, etc.

• Using the findings of the walk around, review of site documents      and/or meetings with administrator/supervisor and other stakeholders,draft a needs analysis to serve as      a basis for the strategic intervention plan to be developed. The needs      analysis should include (1) an overview of the maintenance, repair, and/or      construction projects that the school has completed within the last two      years;  (2) the identified      buildings/ maintenance area of need to be addressed; (3) 2-3 short-term      (3-6 months) maintenance/repair item(s) with a full description of each;      (4) 2-3 long-term (12-18 months) maintenance/repair item(s) with a full      description of each; and (5) one capital improvement (3-5 years new      construction/major renovation) with a full description.  The needs      analysis will serve as the foundation of the strategic intervention      planfor which the project      goals, budget/funding source(s), action steps, timeline, and person(s)      responsible for project oversight and completion of each action step are      specified.

• Explanation      regarding Roles/Responsibilities and Action Items:  For each project component of the      strategic intervention plan, the person(s) responsible for overseeing the      project and the roles in carrying out the project are specified. This may      include managing existing school/ district facilities staff, contracting      with outside vendors, etc. for all major steps in/action items for      beginning, maintaining, and completing each project. 

1. 4.     Develop a viable and realistic intervention plan for accomplishing the needed improvements which includes specific project goals, budget/funding source(s), action steps, timeline, and person(s) responsible for project oversight and completion of each action step

Having worked through the processes specified above, the candidate will write a narrative detailing the preliminary steps with findings, and include the comprehensive intervention plan in graph or chart form.

1. 5.     Demonstrate through the intervention plan and implementation process that the standards and related elements cited above have been met.

Through the written narrative of the intervention plan development process, presentation of the intervention plan, and the stipulated steps for implementation, the candidate will show that he/she has attained the related ELCC standards. FOR MORE INFORMATION ON THIS TOPIC CLICK HERE
