Geneva City School District

This District Comprehensive Improvement Plan outlines district-level systems to support schools identified for additional support, specifically those in CSI, ATSI, and TSI models. The plan details instructional and non-instructional key strategies, district support actions for improving teaching practices through professional development and data-driven instruction, and metrics for measuring success with quantitative data targets. It emphasizes ensuring coherence through a Multi-Tiered System of Support (MTSS) and the Data Wise Improvement Process, equitable resource distribution, and providing equitable access to highly effective educators to promote student achievement and address disparities.
