September
During our meeting we reviewed PSAT data. Given our students' weaknesses in reading, we decided to focus on improving reading for information scores for the current junior class. Steve will develop a reading for information pre-test, which Brian will deliver to all juniors.

October
We participated in a webinar that showed us how to create data reports in the STAR assessment program. Brian administed the pretest to all students, and Paul and Steve reviewed the data. During informal discussions we have decided to focus on Common Core Reading for Information standard 6. RFI standard 9 is related to 6.

**November** We reviewed START Common Core report for information about student performance on RFI standards 6 & 9. We discussed the kinds of supplemental texts to include in each class and quickly named possible instructional strategies.
