SMART Goals

This year each grade level team will be setting a SMART goal.  The key is in creating a SMART goal that will keep the team on track.  What is a SMART goal, you ask?

S - Specific:  Be clear and unambiguous when setting our goal.
                   
M - Measurable:  Set a goal that allows us measurement toward our goals progress.

A - Attainable:   Ask ourselves, "Is this realistic and attainable?"
                         
R - Relevant:  Create a goal with importance and meaning.
                       
T - Time-bound:  Commit to a deadline.  Open-ended goals tend to go forgotten.

We all have goals, right? I know our amazing staff does. And there’s nothing quite like the awesome feeling that comes from reaching a goal and finally being able to say, “We did it!”  Unfortunately, some goals are harder to achieve than others, and these goals are usually the ones that are the most important to us.
