School Accountability Report Card

In enacting the "Classroom Instructional Improvement and Accountability Act," the public has mandated the annual assessment of specific conditions at each school site. The Governing Board desires that this assessment be viewed as an opportunity to communicate with the public, review achievements, identify areas for improvement, enlist local support, enhance internal operations, build consensus, and establish a vision for the future.

The Superintendent or designee shall develop and issue annual site report cards as required by law, including the identification of site level indicators, both qualitative descriptions and quantitative measurements, which will be used to assess each condition being evaluated. Such indicators should be discussed within the framework of desired outcomes, the context in which education takes place, and the educational policies and practices of the district.

The Board expects site assessments to use existing district and site level evaluation processes and resources and that the use­ fulness of these reports will improve with each future assessment.
