    • Abstract:
      The North Dakota Department of Public Instruction (NDDPI) uses a three-pillar approach to school renewal efforts: build relationships, cultivate opportunity, and inspire growth. A key product of this approach is the North Dakota School Renewal Guide, which includes practitioner-friendly school improvement strategies grounded in evidence-based improvement practices for schools identified as Targeted Support and Improvement (TSI) or Comprehensive Support and Improvement (CSI). The guide, now in its third edition, is updated annually based on feedback from the NDDPI, the North Dakota Regional Education Association (REA), and the TSI and CSI schools and districts using the guide. This report tells the story of how the NDDPI project team created and tested a calibration activity to increase inter-rater reliability ratings among REA staff, NDDPI representatives, and schools. By using procedures for consistent and accurate ratings, REA liaisons can provide schools with tailored coaching to support their improvement journeys, help schools track progress on goals and initiatives, and help schools collect the evidence required for them to exit TSI and CSI status. The report is intended as a resource for school leaders working to implement short-cycle school improvement goals.
