This is wonderful news for our 21st century students. Relevant Strategies was proud to assist by facilitating a bias and cultural sensitivity review of the draft Ed Tech standards prior to adoption. Thanks to the teachers and leaders who led the efforts and got this work done.

We just released our new School Improvement Framework with The Washington State Board of Education! The data dashboard gives the public unprecedented access to school-level performance data.

“We are excited about the opportunities our new support system provides to our students,” said Superintendent of Public Instruction Chris Reykdal.

“In partnership with the State Board of Education, we created a state accountability system that will emphasize and provide supports for: equity, closing gaps between students, educator effectiveness, and truly embracing continuous improvement alongside our districts and their communities.”

This deeper dive into data by student group is designed to show where opportunity gaps persist, so schools can make the changes necessary to improve success for each and every student.

This is so cool. Computational thinking is a 21st century skill that goes way beyond programming computers. Our world is changing faster than we could have ever imagined and our students need these skills to thrive. I'm glad our State Superintendent and Governor support this direction.
