School Level Needs Assessment

• A need is a gap between the present state and

a desired state.

• A needs assessment is a set of procedures that

are used to determine needs, examine their nature and causes, and set priorities for future action.

• There are never enough resources to address

all needs. The needs assessment is conducted to identify the right work before doing the work right.

questions compose the quality framework which was revised during the summer of 2018 for the purpose of including equity as required by ESSA

• The supporting rubric consists of performance

descriptors

• Schools identify their level of performance for

each indicator under the standard and provide the data sources used for the determination

• Electronic format using the IWAS system will

allow schools access to historical data for formative purposes
