Monitoring Team Progress

Tool Set C

All teams should create a plan to monitor effectiveness and progress. 

Sometimes, it can be challenging to assess how well a team is meeting its goals and effectively improving student outcomes. This is especially true if districts and high schools do not have a streamlined and reliable source with which to pull college enrollment and graduation rates. Tool Set C provides Counseling Departments and PLTs with resources to measure team progress as well as suggested protocols and assessments to monitor existing college access initiatives.
