The program empowers schools to conduct equity-infused needs assessment, using the Illinois Quality Framework, which originated through Vision 20/20, to determine opportunities for growth in specific areas: Governance and Management, Curriculum and Instruction, and Climate and Culture. IASA has joined a select group of partners that have been pre-approved to be part of the IL-EMPOWER statewide system of supports. School districts as part of this network can create or enhance their improvement plan to build capacity, leadership and resources to improve student outcomes.

5. Principal Evaluation Training and Coaching. Plus Additional Regional Trainings and Administrator Academies on ESSA and the EBF As ISBE continues to roll out updates, changes and new interpretations of the Illinois plan for ESSA, IASA, working with our partners from around the state, will continue to provide training to the field in order to provide relevant, timely and consistent information to those responsible for implementing both the requirements of the Illinois Accountability Model and the Evidence- Based Formula. Although this regional training is not specifically part of our proposed IL-EMPOWER services, we will encourage our IL-EMPOWER Partners to take advantage of these opportunities, both within and outside of IASA’s contracts with them.

Let us help you improve student outcomes
