2013-2014 Local School Plan For Improvement LSPI Objectives TRIP ELEMENTARY Accountability and flexibility are hallmarks of Gwinnett County Public Schools' success. Key to that success is ensuring that each school community understands the progress being made by its schools, as well as what plans will drive improvement. Each school creates a collaborative Local School Plan for Improvement (LSPI), with targeted goals based on student achievement results. These goals are dynamic, like our schools, and are updated to reflect changes that occur in schools. Data is used to determine areas needing improvement and to identify specific, measurable, annual objectives. Schools then determine how to use research-based strategies to achieve these goals, using flexibility as needed. The LSPI development process involves teachers, parents, and community members, so the entire school community has the opportunity to be involved in conversations about school improvement. Please contact the local school principal for more information about the school's plan and progress. 2013-2014 Long Term Goals and Objectives Goal: All Trip Elementary students will increase their writing proficiency as measured by district and locally developed rubrics and scoring devices through the use of best instructional practices including pervasive use of the writing workshop model and increased use of instructional technology in learning.
