II. Georgia Keys To QualitySummer 2007
Each school and system received a very important set of keys : The Keys to Quality
The Keys to Quality ( 3 Manuals)Unlocking Excellence through the Georgia
School StandardsGeorgia Assessment of Performance Standards
(GAPSS) Analysis Implementation Resources
![Page 8: The Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice Board of Education Presentation May 26 , 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56814e56550346895dbbed15/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Georgia Keys to Quality are the foundation for Georgia’s comprehensive, data-driven system of school improvement and support.
The Georgia Keys to Quality describe what Georgia’s schools need to know, understand, and be able to do, in the same manner that the Georgia Performance Standards (GPS) describe what Georgia’s students need to know, understand, and be able to do.

III. AdvancEDThe AdvancED Accreditation Process, a protocol
embraced around the world, is a clear and comprehensive program of evaluation and external review, supported by research-based standards, and dedicated to helping schools, districts and education providers continuously improve.
![Page 11: The Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice Board of Education Presentation May 26 , 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56814e56550346895dbbed15/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
AdvancEDA Memorandum of Agreement with the
Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Council on Accreditation and School Improvement (SACS/CASI) details conditions under which the School Keys and GAPSS Analysis may count for a SACS/CASI Quality Assurance Review and accreditation visit.

IV. Georgia Performance Standards
The performance standards provide clear expectations for instruction, assessment, and student work. They define the level of work that demonstrates achievement of the standards, enabling a teacher to know “how good is good enough.”
![Page 17: The Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice Board of Education Presentation May 26 , 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56814e56550346895dbbed15/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Georgia Performance Standards Conti.
The performance standards isolate and identify the skills needed to use the knowledge and skills to problem-solve, reason, communicate, and make connections with other information. They also tell the teacher how to assess the extent to which the student knows the material or can manipulate and apply the information.

Introduction
Staff development that has as its goal high levels of learningfor all students, teachers, andadministrators entail a form ofprofessional learning that isrelatively different from theworkshop-driven approach.
![Page 20: The Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice Board of Education Presentation May 26 , 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56814e56550346895dbbed15/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Introduction Conti.
According to Mathur et al (2009) the most powerful forms ofcorrectional staff developmentoccur in ongoing teams thatassemble on a regular basisfor the purposes of peer-to-peer learning, joint-lesson planning, and cooperative problem solving.
![Page 21: The Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice Board of Education Presentation May 26 , 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56814e56550346895dbbed15/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
PurposeThe PURPOSE of the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice Consortium (DJJC) is to establish professional learning Communities (PLCS) among educators within the Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ). These PLCs allow educators to work collaboratively to identify and implement best practices for improving academic achievement among the students they serve.
![Page 22: The Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice Board of Education Presentation May 26 , 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56814e56550346895dbbed15/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Mission
The MISSION of DJJC isto build a multiparty effortstatewide to achievecontinuous, systemic andsustainable improvementsin the education systemserving the students of DJJ
![Page 23: The Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice Board of Education Presentation May 26 , 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56814e56550346895dbbed15/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
VisionTo achieve the mission of the DJJC, members work collaboratively in examining the Georgia Performance Standards (GPS) guidelines. These performance standards speak specifically to teachers being able to: master and develop whole-group unit lessons built around Curriculum Activity Packets (CAPs), critique student work, and work as a team to solve the common challenges of teaching within DJJ.
![Page 24: The Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice Board of Education Presentation May 26 , 2011](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081520/56814e56550346895dbbed15/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Vision Conti.Additionally, the consortium jointly analyzes student test data in order to: develop strategies to eradicate common academic deficits among students, align curriculum, and create a coherent learning pathway across grade levels. The consortium also reviews research articles, attends workshops or courses, and invites consultants to assist in the acquisition of necessary knowledge and skills. Finally, members observe one another in the classroom through focus walks.
