PRIORITY ACTIONS for IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF YOUNG PEOPLE RUBRIC FOR PRIORITY ACTION #8: CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT Action Definition: Establish a system for evaluating and continuously improving state and local school health programs. Rationale for Action: Program evaluation is essential for measuring a program’s success in meeting its goals, but also provides information for future program activities. Agencies need to develop clear plans, inclusive partnerships and feedback systems that foster learning and ongoing improvement. Routine program evaluation at the state and local level helps identify program needs and assets, establish priorities, and resource allocation. Both process evaluations (who, what, when, and where of activities) and outcome evaluation (impact of activities on participants) contribute to continuous improvement processes. Priority Action #8 – Continuous Improvement Assessment Rubric: System for continuously improving programs Indicators: Not Yet Progressing Proficient Advanced 8.1 Evaluation activities for the development and implementation of health –related education policies. No evaluation activity in this area. Identify process objectives that reflect the four key concepts*, eight priority actions and performance measures identified by CDC program announcements. Identify outcome objectives that reflect performance measures identified by CDC program announcements and Healthy People 2010. Incorporate into a monitoring and evaluation plan. Data is collected, however it not analyzed used for program improvement. Objectives exist, however they are not SMART objectives. Identify process objectives that reflect the four key concepts*, eight priority actions and performance measures identified by CDC program announcements. Track data for identified process and outcome evaluations for reporting on policies. Implement a policy monitoring system that includes: timeline for monitoring, a monitoring tool, selection and training of monitors, analysis of data collected and period review of all policies. SMART objectives are developed. Data is analyzed and used for program improvement. Process and outcome objectives, with resulting data, are developed and shared in partnership with critical partners at both the state and local level to be applied to program planning and improvement. Evaluate policy planning, implementation, and communications process/system and use the findings to improve the process/system. Evaluation results are used to improve policies. Track data for identified process and outcome evaluations for reporting on professional development. Implement and update a needs assessment for Process and outcome objectives, with resulting data, are developed and shared in partnership with critical partners at both the state and local level to be No data is systematically collected. No objectives exist. 8.2 Evaluation activities for the provision of professional development activities for decision makers and education and public health agency staff. No evaluation activity in this area. No data is systematically collected. No objectives exist. 8.3 Evaluation activities for the development and implementation of effective curricula and programs for students. No evaluation activity in this area. No data is systematically collected. No objectives exist. 8.4 Evaluation activities for the establishment of sufficient capacity to develop and implement program activities and collaborate with other organizations. No evaluation activity in this area. No data is systematically collected. No objectives exist.

Data is analyzed and used for program improvement applied to program planning and improvement. Evaluation results are used to improve professional development. Track data for identified process and outcome evaluations for reporting on student curricula and programs. SMART objectives are developed. Data is analyzed and used for program improvement Process and outcome objectives, with resulting data, are developed and shared in partnership with critical partners at both the state and local level to be applied to program planning and improvement. Regularly review and revise the plan for curricula, instruction, and student assessment to achieve state goals. Evaluation results are use to improve student curricula and programs. Process and outcome objectives, with resulting data, are developed and shared in partnership with critical partners at both the state and local level to be applied to program planning and improvement. Evaluation results are use to improve agency capacity and collaboration. Track data for identified process and outcome evaluations for reporting on agency capacity and collaboration. SMART objectives are developed. Data is analyzed and used for program improvement State Specific Identified Areas for Improvement in this Priority Action: * Key Concepts Identified in Building a Healthier future Through School Health Programs: 1. Coordinate multiple components and use multiple strategies. 2. Coordinate eth activities of health and education agencies and other organization working to improve the health of young people. 3. Implement CDC’s School Health Guidelines. 4. Us a program planning process to achieve health promotion goals.
