Element 1 a. School Vision, Mission and Strategic Goals: The school’s identity, in part, is derived from the vision, mission, values, beliefs and goals of the school, the processes used to establish these attributes, and the ways they are embodied in the life of the school community.
At the beginning of the school year, I wrote a letter of introduction to the staff of Pinkston St. Elementary. As a principal resident I wanted the staff to get to know me as an administrator. It was important for my values to be a part of the school's vision and mission during my residency. See Exhibit 1.a.

Exhibit 1b.
As a part of our Distinguished Leadership in Practice (DLP) training assignment, I reviewed the current school improvement plan to target Standard 1b. I applied the plan, do, act, check model (PDAC) based on Pinkston St. School data. As an administrator I must be able to analyze data and with the assistance of the school improvement team target areas of improvement, create and implement a plan that can be checked periodically for fidelity.
See above Exhibit 1c. DLP Homework Assignment 1.2 and 1.3.
