Director of Curriculum, Instruction and Assessment Rhonda Beasley will present California School Dashboard local indicators to the Governing Board. This is for informational purposes only. No action will be taken. |
This is a requirement from the California Department of Education. For Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) priorities where data is not collected at the state level, an LEA will measure and report its progress through the Dashboard based on locally collected data. Local Indicators reflect the emphasis on ‘local control’, help to create a seamless accountability process throughout state and local levels, and are important for the local community to understand the holistic picture of an LEA’s progress. We are required to report on the following local indicators: - Priority 1: Basic Conditions at School
- Priority 2: Implementation of State Academic Standards
- Priority 3: Parent Engagement
- Priority 6: Local Climate Survey
- Priority 7: Access to a Broad Course of Study
In June, data reflecting priorities 1, 3, and 6 were presented to the board. Today, all local indicators are being presented. |
