As part of the California Accountability and Continuous Improvement process, the state has developed a dashboard which indicates the progress schools and districts are making toward defined goals. As part of this dashboard, the state has identified state indicators which measure success and growth; these state indicators apply to all LEAs, schools, and student groups and are based on data that is collected consistently across the state. In addition, local indicators have been included which apply at the LEA and charter school level and are based on data collected at the local level. This year, there are five local indicators which pertain to the District: Priority 1 -Basic Services and Conditions at schools; Priority 2-Implementation of State Academic Standards; Priority 3-Parent Engagement; Priority 6-School Climate; and Priority 7-Access to a Broad Course of Study. An indicator of 'met" means that the LEA or charter school did measure the annual progress (collect the data), reported such at a regularly-scheduled board meeting, and reported the results to the public through the dashboard.


Leo Bennett-Cauchon (comrnuniy rnembe,) commented that there was not enough time to review the priorities. He inquired about the survey, parent engagement, the need to work with the school site councils, and concerned with continuation high schools.
