Invest in the Highest-Performing Programs for K–12
Thoughtfully plan for and evaluate your district’s instructional practices, policy, and programming
As budget and resourcing challenges continue, districts face a crucial question: are they investing in the programs with the most impact, and, if not, how can they improve?
Hanover will guide your district through a comprehensive evaluation process tailored to your district’s unique needs. As a result, you’ll be able to make evidenced-based decisions on where to invest district dollars, increase transparency into district decision-making, and create accountability for program performance.
Know what is working when you evaluate your academic programs
Develop academic programs that align with your district priorities
Your Hanover advisory team will help your district understand how to define, evaluate, and align programs with strategic instructional priorities to maximize student success.
Invest in the programs with the most impact
Hanover will provide a thorough review of your district’s programs to help you understand which program investments are positively impacting student learning and which ones should be modified or deprioritized.
Develop a program prioritization framework
Understand which district and school-based programs exist, how often staff use these programs, and which programs should be prioritized for evaluation.
Ensure programs have the resources they need
Hanover will map out a logic model to articulate program objectives, inputs, key activities and resources, as well as short-term and long-term expected outcomes.
Understand if your program implementation has been effective
Once a program is launched, this survey helps you understand whether a program is being implemented as planned.
Lake Forest Academy Creates Educational Outcome Index to Track Student Performance
“We have a mission to cultivate and embody our four pillars. There are some areas where we have identifiable performance metrics, like a student’s GPA, how many AP classes they are taking, etc.—but there was a call to find tangible metrics to demonstrate growth over time for areas like Character and Citizenship. Hanover’s survey instrument provided a subsection of questions and topics for each pillar, so being able to break down from the macro view to look at detailed insights let us examine if we were doing anything differently that led to our success, or if our students have a greater awareness of the things around them.”
– Chris Tennyson, Assistant Head of School, Dean of Students & Academic Affairs, and Mathematics Teacher
