School Improvement Plan

SIT stands for School Improvement Team.  School Improvement Teams are required by North Carolina law to develop school improvement plans.   These plans set goals and allow team members to collaborate on ways to achieve the goals and needs of the school.  In addition to this responsibility, the team may provide input on issues such as school programs, philosophy, climate, and safety. School Improvement Teams are considered a public body and are subject to open meeting laws.  Staff, parents and community members are always welcome to attend and observe the meetings.

At Bragg Street Academy, elected teachers and staff are on this committee. Action items will be distributed to the entire staff but will be assigned by the SIT committee. The SIT team will meet on the second Monday of each month. 

Date: August 22nd,  September 24h, October 16th, November 21st, December 19th, January23rd, February 20th, March 20h, April 24th and May 15th. 


2024-2025 elected team members are: Courtney Martindale, Erin Beasley, Aymee Tiffany, Erica Towns and Shannon Shuey 

There are five main steps that the SIT and the referring teacher should follow.

  1. Review and Assess each Key Indicator within Indistar.

  2. Action Steps are developed, implemented and evaluated through the school year.

  3. Ensure that Action Steps for change are interconnected with MTSS and improvements needed with the NC Teacher Working Condition Survey. 

  4. A representative within the team will coordinate with the administrator to manipulate the Indistar system. 

  5. A representative within the team will speak to the parents' representative prior to the meeting each month. If the parents' representative is not able to attend the meeting, the representative will speak to the parent representative about the SIT plan and progress on action steps. This representative will be responsible for bringing back questions/concerns/feedback from the parents' representative to the meeting so that it is recorded within the minutes of the meeting.
