Recommendations are proposed actions or strategies that are suggested based on the assessment of the baseline data and analysis of the current situation. These recommendations are intended to address identified gaps, challenges, or areas for improvement. They provide guidance on the actions that should be taken to move toward the desired outcome of the objective. Recommendations answer the question, “What are we going to do?”

Implementation refers to the actual execution or carrying out of the recommended actions or strategies. It involves putting the proposed recommendations into practice, allocating necessary resources, assigning responsibilities, following established timelines and/or meeting milestones. Implementation requires leadership, coordination, monitoring, and management to ensure that the planned actions are effectively executed.

Measurement involves assessing and evaluating the progress and outcomes of the implemented actions in relation to the objectives. It includes collecting and analyzing relevant data, metrics, or indicators to determine the extent to which the objectives have been achieved. Measurement helps to track the success of the objectives, identify areas for further improvement or adjustment, and inform future decision-making processes. Measurements may be binary (e.g., completed or not completed), quantitative, or qualitative. Measurements answer the question, “How will we know if we are successful?”

At the Oct. 17, 2023 Barrington 220 Board of Education meeting, the Board supported the district's recommendation to implement free full-day kindergarten at all Barrington 220 elementary schools, beginning at the start of the 2024-25 school year. Full-day kindergarten will extend core instruction (math, science, literacy, etc.) throughout the school day. It will eliminate the district's fee-based Kindergarten Enrichment Program.

In addition to implementing full-day kindergarten at all elementary schools, the Board supported the district's recommendation to create a free full-day kindergarten lab program at Barrington High School. This opt-in program will also begin at the start of the 2024-25 school year. The "K-Lab" will include two kindergarten classes (46 students total), and it will provide unique learning opportunities to students, thanks to its location at BHS. Students will be enrolled in the program utilizing a lottery system similar to the district's Spanish Dual Language and Chinese Immersion programs. More details about the K-Lab will be provided in the coming months. Click here to listen to the Board meeting presentation.
