How does District Self-Assessment work?
The District Self-Assessment process uses the five Characteristics of Successful Districts to evaluate the effectiveness of district support to a district’s neediest schools. The Self-Assessment requires a team with cross-district representation to summarize strengths and weaknesses within district programs, policies, and procedures. An online reporting form allows a district (with the support of a DPI-trained facilitator) to create a comprehensive report on all data sources gathered as part of the District Self-Assessment. This is a voluntary process, but in the future might be required for some districts in improvement status.
