The Dashboard “The California School Dashboard is a new website that parents/guardians, educators and the public can use to see how districts and schools are meeting the needs of California’s diverse student population based on the concise set of measures included in the new accountability system.

( LCAP )

The Indicators by Priority Area (State or Local)

The Goal: Closing achievement gaps between student groups.

Dashboard Structure

Schools and districts receive one of five color-coded performance levels on of the state indicators

Our Analysis  A majority of our students (student groups) are performing higher on multiple measures (both state and local indicators  Two indicators are in need of greater attention: Suspension Rates (grades K-12), Graduation Rate (grades 9-12)  Identifiable gaps among student groups in two key state indicators (e.g. Suspension Rates, Graduation Rate)

Our Response  Refine actions/services to better address performnace gaps for identified student groups (in School Site Plans and in the district’s LCAP).  Closely examine our instructional practices and procedures through the lense of equity . Are all students getting the services and support they need to be successful? (e.g. Restorative Justice, PBISS)  Develop our own early warning system (real-time dashboard): “ On- Track” module – to include behavioral and social emotional learning measures: Illuminate Student Information .
