Lacy Elementary 3rd graders are finding solutions for the school! Eleven 3rd graders make up the Koalaty Kouncil, headed by staff members Carol Longo, Sue Edwards and Andria D'Errico. The Koalaty Kouncil members would learn a quality tool and then take it back and use it with the rest of the 3rd graders. Students brainstormed what they would like to improve about the school and did a PDSA (Plan Do Study Act) to find solutions.

The 3rd grade chose to solve the problem of arguing on the playground to solve and used light voting, a data check sheet, a fishbone, and a force field analysis to come up with some action steps. For more info see the description at Lacy Elementary's home page under Quality.
