School Support and Improvement

Overview

The Center for Continuous School Improvement began in 2020 to support school improvement efforts across all schools in Utah. In 2025 the name of the program was updated to School Support and Improvement.  Specifically tasked with providing significant support for those schools that are part of the state and federal school improvement initiatives, but also providing resources which all schools can benefit from no matter where they are in their school improvement journey.  

Mission Statement

To create an aligned, equitable system of supports for school improvement where all Utah schools engage in the continuous improvement cycle resulting in safe, healthy schools for all students where achievement gaps close, graduation rates increase, families and communities are engaged, and students are college and career ready.

USBE Theory of Action for School Improvement: 

The USBE continuous improvement cycle utilizes WestEd’s Four Domains for Rapid School Improvement framework that integrates core areas of focus with critical practices for achieving rapid and significant improvement. Tools, support, and professional learning provided by the USBE aligns with the Four Domains for Rapid School Improvement and School Improvement Plans for CSI schools should also be framed utilizing the Four Domains for Rapid School Improvement.
