District Improvement
The Natrona County School District has set a course for student success by identifying key components to improve student achievement, by targeting interventions for at-risk students, and by focusing on across-the-district professional development for teachers.
In pursuing this course for success, and in response to NCSD's status as a district in need of improvement under the No Child Left Behind Act, NCSD developed a district improvement plan. The plan was developed by a task force of teachers, administrators, parents and community members.
Though the district did make adequate yearly progress (AYP) under NCLB in 2006-07, the district improvement plan provides a path to continue improvement for our students.

How do you provide training for ove 2000 faculty and staff in NCSD? Online delivery may be one way to accomplish this. One example of online learning can be found at atomiclearning.com.
