Academic Performance SMART Goals
Academic Performance SMART Goals

Baseline: 54.2% of English learners made progress toward proficiency on the Summative English Language Proficiency Assessment for California (ELPAC) in Spring 2023. This earned the District an overall “high” progress level for the ELPI. This percentage will serve as the baseline status and we will measure the change over time in future administrations of the Summative ELPAC. Description: ELs take the ELPAC exam to measure progress toward English language proficiency. The ELPAC has 4 levels. Accountability: The 4 ELPAC levels were divided into 6 ELPI levels to determine whether ELs made progress toward English language proficiency. In order to ensure that ELs make annual progress, they will receive English Language Development instruction from authorized teachers in all content areas. Parents/guardians are notified of their program options, placement, and progress toward meeting grade-level standards. |
