Learning Outcomes
• How schools and districts in Washington State use Indistar.
• How our office uses the reporting and monitoring features to monitor both
school and district progress.
• How our Instructional and Leadership Coaches as well as our Educational
Service District partners use the various “communication tools” to provide
thorough, consistent, ongoing feedback.
The “Display Progress” Button:
-access to school’s “Filing Cabinet” to retrieve uploaded documents (e.g.
District supporting evidence, Title I SWP supplemental docs)
-snapshot of last update within each phase
Web form:
-Title I Schoolwide Plan Checklist of Uploaded Evidence to support
supplemental evidence
The “Submitted Reports” Button:
-access and track plan submission by school
-incorporate data into MS Excel spreadsheet with additional data to track
Action Plan Peer Review process
Administrative Reports:
-access to aggregate reports and data query tool
The “Implementation Report”:
-detailed information on indicators (by principle) that have been
assessed, planned for, and achieved full implementation
The “Coaching Comment” feature:
-ability for school coach to provide feedback and guidance to school leadership
team.
-comment is archived and viewable by SEA, instructional/regional coach, & district
Coaching Comments serve multiple purposes:
 Formative feedback to provide pressure and support that moves improvement
toward desired goals.
 Memorialize monthly coaching activities .
 Chronicle the schools journey of improvement.
 Provide suggestions, encouragement, and reminders.
The “Coaching Activity” Report:
-track and retrieve coaching comments coaches submit to schools they’re
supporting
-monitor coach login activity
The “District Drill Down” Report:
-shows progress within each phase by district
The “Progress Query” Report:
-query tool that identifies schools/districts that have met certain criteria for
variables specified in the query
Data Mining tool:
-analyze the assessment, plan, or monitoring work completed for a
specific school or district indicator
The “Coaching Critique” Form:
-Enables the school’s coach to address a specific set of questions to analyze
the school’s plan and push the school team’s thinking
Coaches provide both affirmations and questions for each prompt:
 Has the leadership team responded to the feedback provided in the October 30th
Coaches’ Critique?
 Is the leadership team using a continuous improvement process by revisiting,
revising, and growing their Action Plan? Does the Plan contain evidence of the
work and progress of the school over the last five months?
 Does the Plan reflect the “real”/actual work and initiatives of the school this
year?
 Has the Title I Schoolwide Plan checklist webform for Components 1,2,3,5 and 10
been completed and submitted? Has evidence for each of these Components
been uploaded into the appropriate folders within Indistar?
The “Critique/Feedback” Report:
-track and access Coaching Critique submitted by School Coach, as well
as Professional Development
The “School & District Dashboards” Feature:
-drill down into the school or district’s account to access specific reports
Filters on the “Comprehensive Report”:
-use of the Indicator Filter to extract indicators in plan that align to specific indicators
-use of the Activity Filter to analyze activity within specific time frame
Reviewable Web form:
-Annual School Improvement Grant (SIG) Monitoring Report to convey actions
and activities implemented
-reviewable feature allows SEA to rate degree of implementation of each
element, provide comments, and return to school until final draft is approved
