Focus
Direct Technical Assistance
The CCEE advises and assists county offices of education (COEs) and local educational agencies (LEAs) in need of targeted assistance in achieving their Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) goals by effectively meeting the needs of disadvantaged youth. An important part of our work is teaming with COEs and other expert resources to build the capacity of individual LEAs through Direct Technical Assistance (DTA).
Intensive Assistance Model
To better address the growing need for enhanced support in eligible school districts, the California Collaborative for Educational Excellence (CCEE) launched an application process in 2022-2023 for its Intensive Assistance Model Project. School districts interested could choose from a range of service providers qualified to address specific requirements on collaborating, coaching, meaning-making, and common formative assessments.
Systemic Instructional Review (SIR)
The Systemic Instructional Review (SIR) is a Pre-K through 12 comprehensive analysis of the Local Educational Agency (LEAs) instructional systems (academic and social emotional) and implementation of teaching, learning, and leading practices. Educational partners at multiple levels (students, families, teachers, school site staff and administration, governance members, and district office leadership) are involved throughout the data collection process. The SIR aims to identify what improvement strategies may help the LEA ensure that every student is making academic progress and social and emotional growth, so they will be prepared to thrive as their best self.
Learning Acceleration System Grant
The CCEE partners with selected county offices of education to establish a statewide professional development infrastructure to expand the use of evidence-based accelerated learning strategies by educators across the state, particularly in the areas of literacy, mathematics, and language development.
