http://interact.uoregon.edu/wrrc/monitor/States/CTSummary.html

Extractions: Connecticut conducts cyclical and focused monitoring throughout the state. Cyclical monitoring occurs through the completion of a school district self-assessment followed by a state desk audit. Approximately 50% of those districts in the cycle, also receive a site visit by a team of reviewers including LEA peers and state officials. The focused monitoring is conducted state-wide, determined by data in the areas of total disability prevalence rate, disability specific prevalence rate, percentage of time with non-disabled peers (all disabilities), percentage of time with non-disabled peers (intellectual disabilities), participation rates in statewide testing, and suspension/expulsion rates. Districts are required to submit explanations and corrective actions as necessary.

Even a quick activity can be a big deal, motivating children to embrace the many pleasures of reading. Bigger activities require a bit more planning, and the biggest ideas can involve your whole school in an exciting celebration of books and reading!
