ESAIL and End of the Year Report● Potential Information to Include:
Belleville End of Year Report/ESAIL
Lessons Learned● Organize summary of findings by grade bands (middle
school/high school) rather than by grades/classroom to avoid micro analysis of teachers.
● Share explicitly with staff that the purpose is to identify patterns and trends, not evaluative, not about individual classrooms.
● Hold staff accountable only for what they have learned.
● Have more than three people for best calibration.

Lessons Learned1. Be explicit with your staff regarding your
expectations. Eg. digital vs. paper logs2. Continue walkthroughs outside of the ESAIL.3. Know what you should be seeing: look-fors.4. Remember that it is all about continuous
growth.5. Sometimes change is slow, and there are
setbacks.
