LCAP STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT

LCAP Development Process

The LCAP Process requires that districts engage all stakeholders to get input on what the district goals should be based on available data. However, the LCAP process is not simply a wish list. School districts are required to connect the public’s input to California’s 10 State Priorities to improve student achievement. Additionally, after looking at available data, the public is invited to share information and feedback on the district’s current LCAP Goals and provide suggestions to modify these goals to improve and/ or achieve the 10 State Priorities.

Understanding the 10 State Priorities

These are the 10 state priorities arranged in 3 categories that all LCAPs must address.

Conditions of Learning

Basic Services
Implementation of State Standards
Course Access
Expelled Youth (county-level)
Foster Youth (county-level)

Pupil Outcomes

Pupil Achievement
Other Pupil Outcomes

Engagement

Parent Involvement

District LCAP Goals

Goal 1

By 2020, all students will advance along multiple academic measures toward meeting/exceeding standards in order to close achievement gaps and accelerate progress, including increasing the number of students successfully completing college preparatory and career technical education (vocational) courses by 100%.

Goal 2

By 2020, through multiple measures, all students will show an increase in positive school engagement and connectedness with staff, peers, and community, including demonstrating improvement in social/emotional and physical health.

These are the two LCAP Goals for the 2017-2018 School Year. These were arrived at based on public input after looking at data last year during the stakeholder engagement process. They are also closely tied to our Strategic Plan that was created in Spring 2017 (Strategic Plan handouts are available on the table). These two goals are broad and encompass much of the work to be done in the district, but not all. We can only take on so much at one time, and these two were chosen as the priorities by the stakeholders last year. Under each goal, specific actions and then related services are listed. Each of the 10 state priorities is addressed through these specific actions and services. Stakeholders can see the entire 83 page LCAP for 2017-2018 by going to the “LCAP & Surveys” page on the district’s website.

Local Data Review & Discussion

Goal 1: Academic

CAASPP
Graduation Rate
College Going Rate (UC/CSU)
AP Pass & Participation Rates

Goal 2: Social-Emotional

CA Healthy Kids Survey
Chronic Absenteeism
Suspension/Expulsion

Now let’s take a look at some of our local data that is related to the LCAP goals and state priority areas. We will review academic data related to goal 1 (review the different measures under Academic), as well as social-emotional data which is related to goal 2 (review the measures under Social-Emotional).

Here is our achievement data for English-Language Arts for the last three years. Take a moment and study it and talk to your neighbor about anything you notice or any trends you see. (After a few minutes:) It is great to see the progress we have made as a district. We can also see there is some work left to do. What do you notice about this data? (take a few volunteers)

This is our achievement data for English-Language Arts broken down by grade level (give the white handout of this same data now). The bar on the left of each grade level represents the scores for “All Students” and the bar on the right represents the scores for “Low Socio-Economic Status Students.” The top section in brown represents students that, “Exceeded Standard”, the blue section represents the percentage of students that “Met Standard”, the yellow section represents students that “Nearly Met Standard”, and the grey section at the bottom represents students that, “Did Not Meet Standard.” We want as many students as possible to be in the blue or the brown area.

California LCAP Overview: District LCAP Data Related to CA 10 State Priorities
Activity
Review California’s 10 State Priorities and the ACOE/ ACUSD data associated with each state priority.
Circle areas where ACOE/ACUSD data is lower or higher than California data. This will help us identify areas for focus.

11
At this point, hand out the yellow 1-page data sheet broken down by state priority area. Have stakeholders get into partners or groups to process the 10 state priorities and the ACOE/ ACUSD data on each priority. (10-15 Minutes). Tell them we will discuss their findings using the discussion questions on the following slides.

California LCAP Overview: District LCAP Stakeholder Discussion
What is the student achievement data telling us?
What are some areas of strength?
What are some opportunities for growth?
Based on this information, what might be some areas of focus for LCAP goal 1?

12
Give Stakeholders about 10 minutes to share out. The goal is to listen and respond. The focus always goes back to data, the 10 state priorities, and our current LCAP goals. Is there a specific area we should place more focus on under goal 1 (academic) for 2018-2019?

California LCAP Overview: District LCAP Stakeholder Discussion
What is the Social-Emotional (California Healthy Kids Survey, Suspension / Expulsion, Chronic Absenteeism) data telling us?
What are some areas of strength?
What are some opportunities for growth?
Based on this information, what might be some areas of focus for LCAP goal 2?

13
At this point, hand out the blue social-emotional data sheets (California Healthy Kids Survey information). Point out that the first page is for middle school and the second page is for high school. These reports are not produced for elementary schools. Be sure to point out the, “District School Climate Index” at the top of page 1 and 2. On page 1 it shows that our middle schools are in the 28th percentile compared to the state average and in the 18th percentile compared to similar schools. On page 2 it shows that our high schools are in the 80th percentile compared to the state average and in the 82nd percentile compared to similar schools. Page 3 breaks the data down a bit further, and the following page represents all elementary students in the district. Give Stakeholders about 5 minutes to review the handouts. Then facilitate a discussion using the questions on the slide. The goal is to listen and respond. The focus always goes back to data, the 10 state priorities, and our current LCAP goals.

California LCAP Overview: District LCAP Goals (2017-2018)
Goal 1: By 2020, all students will advance along multiple academic measures toward meeting/exceeding standards in order to close achievement gaps and accelerate progress, including increasing the number of students successfully completing college preparatory and career technical education (vocational) courses by 100%.
Goal 2: By 2020, through multiple measures, all students will show an increase in positive school engagement and connectedness with staff, peers, and community, including demonstrating improvement in social/emotional and physical health.

Given the data, the 10 State Priorities, and our 2 goals, what might be some priorities for 2018-19?
14
This brings it all together. So now that we have reviewed the 10 state priorities, our data around these 10 priorities, and our 2 LCAP goals, is there a specific area (or areas) we should place more focus on under goal 1 (academic) for 2018-2019? Is there a specific area we should place more focus on under goal 2 (social-emotional) for 2018-2019?
