Details here. District Releases School Experience Survey Results! Join Us on the Road to Success! Students are at the core of LAUSD’s four interconnected strategies, all of which will help us meet our goals to ensure all students are college-prepared and career-ready. To align resources for greater impact and equity, and to give schools the ability to target resources to meet their school-specific needs, we will bring funding and decision-making to schools and classrooms through the Budgeting for Student Achievement initiative. We are accountable for our students’ success. We will use data to personalize the supports that all of our employees need to be efficient and successful, from professional development and training, to creating measurable performance goals. As a district, we will use data to drive standards–based, effective instruction for all students, coupled with support and intervention, when students need extra assistance or accelerated learning. We will analyze multiple data points to differentiate the service and support we deliver to schools. In addition, we will capture and share best practices across all of our schools regardless of school models. See you on the road! ~ Superintendent Deasy Click Here to Voice your Support
