Part 2: Reflection
The goals outlined in my schools Integrated Action plan are: with an effective system in place, LBA will increase member

input with three surveys a year and reach 75% participation of school and community member, one teacher from each grade level band

(K-1) (2-3) (4-5) (6-8) will meet bi-weekly with administration, outside of instructional time, to provide input on campus happenings

and communicate information back to grade level teams and stakeholders, and Las Brisas Academy will have a systematic way to

evaluate the effectiveness of instruction campus-wide. These goals are very specific and, on the surface, hard to fund. The budget line

items I selected -work as action steps to achieving those goals listed on the IAP.

For goal #1, these line items provide community outreach opportunities to increase member and community participation in

school events and survey results. By hosting these events and opening the campus intentionally we can receive feedback more

frequently and use that feedback to enhance the school setting. Goal #2 is met in using the leadership team and their time together to

produce relevant and usable professional development that will better meet the needs of all teachers, there for being more impactful to

student outcomes.

 In regard to Goal #3 new social studies textbooks will increase student access to relevant and accurate information, allowing

for teachers to spend les time looking for the best resources and more time teaching effectively. Increasing teacher retention and

improving placement based on skills will allow for more effective teaching and better instruction as it allows teacher to grow in their

content and professional knowledge without starting over each year. In meeting the vision, I feel it is important for our performing arts

academy to have a professional production that will serve in proving memorable learning experiences aligned with school academic

goals as well.

It is the principal’s responsibility to align the budget to the mission, vision, and integrated action plan because as with all other

school functions, the principal is primary in establishing the cause, identifying the process, leading the plan following specific steps

and implementing the plan to the whole school with fidelity.
