SUSDLocal Education Agency Plan Blueprint for Student Achievement
The Blueprint Defines: • SUSD’s Focus based on measurable outcomes • SUSD’s Alignment of Programs, Procedures, Practices, & Policies • SUSD’s Expectations for stakeholders • SUSD’s Opportunities to provide stakeholders in support of meeting measurable outcomes
High Performing Districts Believe… • All Students can learn • Success breeds success • We control the conditions of success Leading in an Era of High Stakes Accountability, Action Learning Systems. pp. 1 (2010)
Analysis of District Structures tells a story… SUSD’s structures lack alignment within a systems approach; as a result, stakeholders’ ability to achieve each SUSD measureable outcome is obstructed.
Students Achievement A formal Data Review lets the students tell us how the alignment is working or not working.
Our performance by grade level has been similar for the past 3 years in ELA.
We have a lot of work to do to get our 3rd grade students proficient at reading and our 8th grade students proficient in Algebra. • Percent of 3rd graders proficient in reading in 2011 = 25.1% • Percent of 8th graders proficient in Algebra in spring 2011 = 23.6% • If MAP data remains consistent, 1,000 of our students are not ready for Algebra
Student grades are not consistently aligned to mastery of standards. Results from one comprehensive high school.
Our English Learners do not have enough opportunities to enroll in elective courses. Time In ELD Program (TIP)

Purpose of Response to Intervention in SUSD’s Blueprint • For school- and district-wide success, ALL STUDENTS must be correctlyplaced in the right class (program and instruction) for the right amount of time with the right teacher. Leading in an Era of High Stakes Accountability, Action Learning Systems. pp. 1 (2010)
How do we get there? • Blueprint for Student Achievement: • System • Focus • Alignment • Expectations • Opportunities
SUSD’s Focus • Focus • Board Adopted Outcomes • Every student will read and comprehend by the end of 3rd grade • Every student will be proficient in Algebra concepts and applications by the end of 8th grade • Every student will graduate college and career ready by the end of the 12th grade
SUSD’s Focus • Measurable Goals for Student Achievement • Every child will move up one proficiency level on the CST: Far Below Basic Below Basic Low Basic(325) High Basic Proficient Advanced • Every English Learner will move up one language proficiency level on the CELDT: Beginner Early Intermediate Intermediate Early Advanced Advance R-FEP • Every year the percent of high school graduates will increase (2019 CDE mandate 90%)
How does this look for SUSD? Leading in an Era of High Stakes Accountability, Action Learning Systems. pp. 7 (2010)
How will SUSD accomplish its Focus (outcomes and goals)? • Alignment • Programs • Practices • Procedures • Policies
Programs • Curriculum adopted to teach SUSD’s students to read, to master Algebra, and to prepare all students to graduate college and career ready.
Practices • Direct Interactive Instruction (DII) • Standards and Measurable Objectives • Lesson Scope and Sequence • I Do, We Do, You Do with Support, You Do • Student Engagement, Feedback, and Correctives • Proactive Classroom Management
Procedures • Student Placement • Based on individual student needs • Teacher Placement • Scheduling • Professional Development • Data Analysis
Policies • Review Data in Relationship to Alignment needs • Consideration for reviewing policies around: • Homework policies • Grading policies • HR practices • Budgeting • Facilities
What can Stakeholders expect? • Expectations • Non-Negotiables tied to Student Achievement as identified in the Blueprint for Student Achievement • Opportunities • Support for Stakeholders to Achieve Non-Negotiables • Stakeholders equal students, teachers, coaches, site administrators, district office, school board, and parents.
An aligned SUSD Blueprint will identify systematic practices that support and measure student achievement.
