The agenda included a review of local measures aimed at aligning the district's mission and vision with student learning and achievement goals. Board members highlighted the importance of developing study sessions to evaluate recommendations for improving academic results.
In the finance section, the board noted the approval of the district's budget by the county office of education, with a focus on finalizing unaudited actuals for the months of August through November. This process is crucial for ensuring that the district's financial records are accurate and compliant with educational regulations.
The meeting also touched on human resources, with updates on welcoming school staff back for the new academic year. Community relations efforts were discussed, particularly the development of key messages related to the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) and participation in back-to-school events.
Additionally, the board reviewed the iReady growth and proficiency results for the 2023-24 school year. While the California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) data is still pending, the district is able to provide immediate insights from local assessments, allowing for timely analysis of student performance.
Overall, the meeting served as an informative session for board members and the public, outlining the district's priorities and progress as the school year unfolds.
