2021-22 Differentiated Assistance Guidance

DESCRIPTION

As a part of differentiated assistance, Local Educational Agencies (LEAs) eligible under sections 47607.3, 52071, and 52071.5 of the California Education Code (EC), are typically required to analyze Dashboard and local data. In the absence of Dashboard indicators for the 2021-2022 school year, Section 122 of Assembly Bill (AB) 130 outlines the data elements that are required to be analyzed for differentiated assistance in the 2021-2022 school year.

Developed in partnership with the California Department of Education, the California County Superintendents Educational Services Association’s Curriculum and Instruction Steering Committee, and various Lead Agencies from the Statewide System of Support.

Fresno County Office of Education PLN Highlights

DESCRIPTION

Network participants reviewed district and site-level data to identify strengths and gaps in the quality of assessments. This allowed participants to ensure existing assessments provide valid and reliable data needed to diagnose student needs and monitor progress. Districts will address data findings with action oriented steps to identify priorities or an identified problem of practice. With the rollout of the English Learner Proficiency Assessment for California (ELPAC) and English Learner Progress Indicator (ELPI), the PLN will also examined assessment practices and progress monitoring of EL students. Ultimately, the purpose of the PLN will be driven by the need to decrease the gap in student achievement through the expansion of formative and summative assessment data review practices, at the district, school and classroom levels.

Introduction to the TNTP Learning Acceleration Guide

DESCRIPTION

CCEE is partnering with TNTP to provide an eight-part learning series (each session 2.5 hours for instructional teams to design strong teaching and learning experiences in the coming year. Drawing on lessons from TNTP’s Learning Acceleration Guide and aligned to the requirements of the Learning Continuity and Attendance Plans, this learning series focuses on the critical pieces necessary for an accelerated learning approach.

For the LEAs that participated in the series, TNTP provided support to instructional leaders at every level of the system to develop the knowledge, skills, and mindsets they need to develop an accelerated learning approach, regardless of whether students are learning in the school building or in their living room.

At the end of this session, you will be able to:

  1. Examine specific examples of instruction that accelerated learning by using just-in-time supports to ensure all students can engage with grade-level content.
  2. Articulate the importance of aces, implementation and quality goals in accelerated learning work.
  3. Explain how your system will create a plan to accelerate student learning over the next two years.
