Kentucky Program Review Information

Here is all the information and helpful docs from what we are doing at Murray Middle School and at Murray Independent School District to prepare for the implementation of the program reviews in the state of Kentucky.

Here are two links to copies of the Program Review documents we have used to do initial evaluation in Google Docs.  They are copies, they may not be completely finished but feel free to save a copy for yourself or your school to work with.  Instructions for how to save a copy are at the end of the video posted.

Also, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions either by e-mail, whitney.york@murray.kyschools.us or on Twitter @w_york.
