GroweLab · Features · Implementation plans

Close the gap between planning and execution.

Leaders put real time into strategic plans, school improvement plans and HQIM rollouts. GroweLab carries each one as owners, timelines and progress, so the plan keeps moving after it is approved, and everyone can see where it stands.

What you can track

Every plan your district runs, in one place.

  1. 01

    HQIM implementations

    Milestones, owners and timelines for a new curriculum at every school, beside the walkthroughs that show whether it is reaching classrooms.

  2. 02

    School improvement plans

    Each school’s goals, actions and evidence in one record the campus team updates and district leaders can see.

  3. 03

    Strategic plans

    A district’s multi-year goals turned into priorities, each with an owner, a measure and a progress record.

  4. 04

    Every other initiative

    A new coaching program, a literacy push, a technology rollout: any initiative that needs owners, tasks and follow-through.

HQIM implementation monitoring

See the adoption, and whether it is reaching classrooms.

  1. Plan

    Lay out the rollout

    Milestones, owners and timelines for each school, from launch training to full implementation, carried in GroweLab as a plan.

  2. Measure

    Walk the classrooms

    Walkthroughs score the level of implementation on leveled look-fors, so leaders see how well the materials are being taught, not only whether they are in use.

  3. Adjust

    Aim support where it is needed

    Progress reports show which schools are on track, so coaching and support go to the schools and teachers who need them next.

Total visibility, simple execution

In their words

A high-level view of every school.

GroweLab is supporting our goals… GroweLab gives me a quick snapshot. There is no way to be in all of the schools, but we can use GroweLab to see a high level overview of what is happening in the district.

Where this sits in the cycle

The plan, carried through every step.

Implementation plans in GroweLab run through every step of the cycle. The plan is built on what the diagnosis found, and its progress record sits beside the coaching and the community work that carry it.

FAQ

Questions leaders ask.

What kinds of plans can we track in GroweLab?

Any plan a district or school runs: HQIM implementations, school improvement plans, strategic plans and other initiatives. Each priority gets an owner, tasks, timelines and a progress record, and plans can run across several years.

How does GroweLab help us monitor an HQIM implementation?

GroweLab carries the rollout as a plan, with milestones and an owner at each school, and measures classroom implementation with walkthroughs that score the level of implementation on leveled look-fors. Leaders see in one platform whether the plan is on schedule and whether the materials are being taught well.

Who can see a plan’s progress?

Everyone who needs to. Plan owners and teams see their next steps and timelines, leaders see district- or school-wide progress in real time, and stakeholder dashboards and automated progress reports keep boards and communities informed.

Can we bring a plan we already have?

Yes. A district can load an existing strategic plan, school improvement plan or HQIM rollout into GroweLab and start tracking it, or build the plan with engage2learn through Strategic Design or HQIM Planning & Design.

What does it replace?

Districts typically track plans in spreadsheets, a separate plan-tracking tool or a general project management app. GroweLab puts plan tracking in the same platform as walkthroughs, coaching and professional learning, one of the 3 to 6 tools it replaces.
