Description:  Redefining Ready is a state and national initiative to broaden the information on school performance shared with stakeholders.  The Wisconsin initiative has been endorsed by the WASDA and the CESA's. We have been monitoring the development of this initiative for a few years and Tim attended a meeting of the state initiative in December.  The is conceptually aligned with our district's approach to learning and we already collect data on almost all the Redefining Ready elements, so while this is revolutionary for some districts it is evolutionary for Waunakee and would not be a large lift.

In addition to the attachments, there is a Wisconsin Redefining Ready web site.
