FINAL INSTRUCTIONS: First, identify
those sections where you have indicated higher levels of involvement
by the school and build on those existing programs. Second, identify
those sections where you have primarily rated as ones or twos. These
are areas where the school might work with parents, teachers,
students, and partners in the community to develop priority
strategies in the first year or two.
