Student learning rests on the effectiveness of teaching practices, leadership practices and organizational practices. Therefore, continuous improvement of professional practices must occur before continuous improvement of student learning can be realized. The appreciation of this cause-and-effect relationship is vital to the success of leaders in focusing their schools on disciplined implementation of their plans.

Performance Fact's Eye on the Goal™ is a 5-step inquiry process for disciplined implementation and continuous monitoring of strategic plans, school improvement plans and operational plans. The Eye on the Goal™ process helps leaders guide the implementation of their most important priorities for each planning cycle. The process is equally applicable at the state, district and school levels.

Key features and benefits of the Eye on the Goal™ process include:
 * Focus on continuous improvement of teaching practices, leadership practices and organizational practices.
 * Frequent and timely data on student learning and the effectiveness of professional practice.
 * Alignment of professional development to priorities in the improvement plan.
