What are Lagging Indicators?-Reminder
O Provide concrete evidence that a school has achieved a specific level of performance
O Quantified by a criterion score
Note: Where leading indicators show what a school should work on to achieve high reliability status, lagging indicators are the evidence a school gives to validate its achievement of an HRS level.

Lagging Indicator Criterion ScoreClark Elementary School
O Every nine weeks we will survey the staff
O We will limit the survey to one or two pertinent questions in order to provide a formal way of obtaining input from the staff.
O Our criterion score will be obtaining a mean of 4 or above.
O If we fall below that criterion, we will investigate the reason as a team and decide what we need to do to fix the problem.

Instruction (Development)
O Two purposes of evaluation systems:
measurement and development

O Benefits of separating the two

Second Order Change
According to Muhammad (2009), 3 Things required
to successfully navigate big change:
O 1) A clear and compelling reason why change is
necessary
O 2) A plan that is “doable”
O 3) Appropriate Support
![Page 30: High Reliability Schools: The Journey of Eight … Reliability Schools: The Journey of One School District Presented by: Jenni Baker-Principal, Sawmill Woods Elementary Cirsten Lewis-](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070607/5aa231ec7f8b9a07758cb920/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Change Continued
According to Marzano, Waters, & McNulty (2005), 2nd order change is associated with a decrease in positive perceptions for the following responsibilities of the principal:
O Culture
O Communication
O Order
O Input
![Page 31: High Reliability Schools: The Journey of Eight … Reliability Schools: The Journey of One School District Presented by: Jenni Baker-Principal, Sawmill Woods Elementary Cirsten Lewis-](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022070607/5aa231ec7f8b9a07758cb920/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
“I'm increasingly persuaded that
schools that go slow and a little at
a time end up doing so little that
they succeed in only upsetting
everything without accruing the
benefits of change” (Theodore
Sizer, 1989).
