DASL believes that with the proper supports and interventions, all schools and districts can achieve success. DASL’s school and district improvement services focus on four key areas:

• Using data to inform instruction
• Improving instruction for all
• Creating a culture of collaboration
• Planning change, monitoring for implementation and aligning initiatives and resources

School and district improvement programs include:

• Distributed Leadership: focuses on implementing professional learning communities and creating opportunities for leadership across the organization.
• DPAS II Advanced Training Modules: help administrators use the state evaluation system to drive instructional improvement.

In addition to these programs, DASL customizes services for schools or districts. For example, DASL has:

• Facilitated “data days” for teachers and school leaders.
• Provided training on statewide data systems such as the Correlates of Achievement.
• Conducted instructional walkthroughs and modeled the process for others.
• Supported school communities through leadership transition.

DASL helps schools or districts identify the first step towards improvement. Examples of indicators of capacity in data, instruction, collaboration or planning/monitoring/alignment are available here.
