Educator preparation program improvement goals for the upcoming program year |
| Goal #1 |
Shady Hill will pilot and evaluate a new partnership with Boston University where 6 history/English majors interested in middle and secondary education will have the opportunity to take graduate level courses focused on the planning and teaching of history or English. |
| Goal #2 |
Shady Hill's ed prep program will continue to offer its Future Teacher Institute for Men of Color while focusing on recruiting and training at least 6 of 18 potential candidates for the ed prep program to provide teachers for Somerville, Cambridge, and/or Boston public school districts. These are districts that have demonstrated need for more men of color in their public schools. |
| Goal #3 |
Shady Hill's 90th year of teacher preparation is also the year in which the school will seek reaccreditation to continue to endorse in program areas currently approved. Hiring a full-time Assistant Director for Teacher Preparation should enable the program to support 18 apprentice teachers, manage admission, and facilitate five courses for Lesley University on-site. We will continue to utilize the services and expertise of our Director of Inclusion and Multicultural Practice to identify prospective applicants to the program. Our Alumni Outreach Co-ordinator will collaborate with SHS's new Director of External Affairs to set realistic achievable goals to support alums more effectively and launch a $2 million capital campaign for tuition assistance for diverse applicants. These goals are reflected in our 2015-18 strategic plan. |

Educator preparation program improvement goals from the prior year |
| Goal #1 |
Require all apprentices to develop curriculum and implement lessons that reflect a deep understanding of multicultural pedagogy and cultural competence. |
| Goal #2 |
The Shady Hill School will continue its partnerships with the Lawrence School and Brookline as well as CityYear, Breakthrough, and Lesley University. Lesley University's work with SHS to recruit and train more Creative Arts and Learning apprentices/graduate students will continue to be an area of concentration for strategic recruiting. We are also exploring a partnership with Harvard given our recent work with them to host an intern from the graduate school who was on a one year leave of absence from a charter school in Boston. We aim to also focus on financial sustainability through grant writing and fundraising through alumni to award more scholarships to potential students. |
| Goal #3 |
Shady Hill School will delve deep in expanding its focus on interdisciplinary learning with a focus on arts integration. It will also pilot one-year placements for two apprentices in classrooms that have a Central Subject yearlong thematic unit of study. |

Educator preparation program improvement goals from the prior year |
| Goal #1 |
Shady Hill aims to continue our partnership with the Lawrence School in Brookline to provide each apprentice teacher with EXPERIENCE working with students on IEPs and students who are ELLs. |

Shady Hill aims to use CAP during the FALL and the SPRING to assess the apprentice's growth and development as well as their impact on student learning over the course of a year. |
| Goal #3 |
Shady Hill aims to utilize the Director of Inclusion and Multicultural Practice to partner with the Asst. Director of teacher training and identify local networks linked to more racially and ethnically diverse communities to increase the applicant pool and the diversity of the apprentice cohort. |
