ANNOUNCEMENTS

  • Complete LEAD MY Self-Reflection and Evaluations by Jan 31

    The LEAD Mid-Year (MY) performance conversation window for the 2024-25 SY is Dec 9 - Jan 31.

    During MY conversations, school leaders and their evaluators meet to discuss demonstration of competency indicators, current areas of strength, opportunities for growth, and progress toward goals. Together, they review the body of evidence, including benchmarks and evidence as defined by the LEAD Framework and update as necessary. In addition, the evaluator provides specific action steps for professional practice competencies.

    Next Steps:

  • Add LEAD Goals to the GPS by Nov 1 [published 10/22/2024]

    The new Growth and Performance System (GPS) is now live and ready for school leaders to add their goals.  

    Goal setting is an important part of our growth and performance cycle and is an opportunity for each school leader to connect their work directly to the LEAD Framework, DPS Strategic Roadmap, and individual school plans.

    What’s next?

  • Host LEAD Beginning-of-Year (BOY) & Goal Setting Conversations by 9/27/2024

    The new Growth and Performance System (GPS) has a target launch date of September 17, therefore goals need to be temporarily documented outside of the system. Please use a Google document to capture goals and plan to transfer into the GPS once it is live. 

    Goal setting is an important part of our growth and performance cycle and is an opportunity for each school leader to connect their work directly to the LEAD Framework, DPS Strategic Roadmap, and school plans.

    What’s next?
