Innovation Agreement Renewals

3 Framework Developed Spring, 2019

Allows us to view all Innovation schools, regardless of type, through

the same lens aligned to metrics that stem from our values.

Uses a natural inflection point to conduct a deeper analysis of the

school’s trend data as well as the details of the actual agreement.

Ensures both parties are actively reflecting upon and discussing the

intent, process, and path forward to renewal of partnership.
