District Goals and Plan Overview

The purpose of the School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) is to provide a comprehensive document, including details of site planned actions and expenditures as they relate to the goals of Clovis Unified School District. The plan supports student outcomes and overall performance in connection with the District's Local Control and Accountability Plan and in alignment with the district goals supporting the expectations that all goals shall have objectives that are measurable, actionable, and develop monitoring metrics to assess progress that guides program evaluation and resource allocation.

Our district AIMS as well as our district’s CLASSI goals are woven throughout our plan to meet the high expectations our district holds for our school sites, staff, students, and community.

District AIMS:
AIM I: Maximize Achievement for ALL Students
AIM II: Operate with Increasing Efficiency and Effectiveness
AIM III: Hire, Develop, Sustain, and Value a High-Quality Diverse Workforce

Plan Description

Briefly describe your school’s plan for effectively meeting ESSA’s planning requirements in alignment with the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) and other federal, state, and local programs.

Within our SPSA we have created a plan that focuses on increasing academic performance around English Language Arts and math. It is our ultimate goal to implement this plan and continue to increase academic achievement for all students. Our plan includes goals around our ELA, Math, Chronic Absenteeism, and Suspensions for all students, but with a focus on the following subgroups: white. We remain an ATSI school this year due to our white subgroup having high suspension and chronic absentee rates.

Educational Partner Involvement

How, when, and with whom did Pinedale Elementary School consult as part of the planning process for this SPSA/Annual Review and Update?

Involvement Process for the SPSA and Annual Review and Update

Our educational partners, including but not limited to our SSC, ELAC, and staff, play a huge role in the creation, monitoring, and revisions of our School Plan for Student Achievement. Throughout the year, we regularly revisit our SPSA at our SSC meetings by discussing the budget and goals, student achievement, available supports for students and families, and more. At our most recent SSC and ELAC meetings, our SPSA monitoring tool was reviewed with our committees to allow them to see where we were with last year’s goals, where we see continued gaps, and where we have identified wins in achievements. Our committees then discussed possible next steps and needed changes as well as made recommendations to site administration for our SPSA.

The following recommendations were made:
*Providing parent workshops for ways in which parents can support students from home *Continuing to fund SRL and Liaison
*Making sure there is universal parent outreach throughout the school for news

Resource Inequities

Briefly identify and describe any resource inequities identified as a result of the required needs assessment, as applicable. This section is required for all schools eligible for ATSI and CSI only.

Our data points to an inequity in our suspension and chronic absentee rate for our White subgroup. We recognize that one factor to this is that this is one of the smallest demographic subgroup on our campus; making it more important that we are intentional in our practices amongst all subgroups and even more so in our White subgroup. Based on a review of data along with parent and educational partner input, and student interviews, we found a resource inequity exists within our program in the area of suspension and attendance rates within our white subgroup. Our needs assessment and data analysis revealed that our white student groups are suspended more often than other subgroups and to address this inequity, our site will provide professional learning for our staff around trauma informed practices, alternatives to suspension, and other research-based practices that will allow us to close the suspension gap. More information around these actions can be found in goal 2 of our site plan. Additionally, to improve chronic absenteeism we plan to continue home communication from our HSL as well as hiring an SRL to provide support and mentoring for students.

Comprehensive Needs Assessment Components

Identify and describe any areas that need significant improvement based on a review of Dashboard and local data, including any areas of low performance and significant performance gaps among student groups on Dashboard indicators, and any steps taken to address those areas.

California School Dashboard (Dashboard) Indicators

Referring to the California School Dashboard (Dashboard), any state indicator for which overall performance was in the “Red” or “Orange” performance category. *Pinedale has no overall indicators in that fell into red on the California Data Dashboard.

*Pinedale has the following subgroups who fell into orange Indicators overall: Suspension Rates, ELA, and Math

Referring to the California School Dashboard (Dashboard), any state indicator for which performance for any student group was two or more performance levels below the “all student” performance.

The following subgroups have two or more indicators below the all student performance level in the following areas: *White in chronic absenteeism

Additionally, the following indicators are red on our dashboard for the following subgroups: *Suspension Rates: White
*Chronic Absentee: White *English Language Arts: SWD

School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA)	Page 4 of 18	Pinedale Elementary School

Other Needs

In addition to Dashboard data, other needs may be identified using locally collected data developed by the LEA to measure pupil outcomes. Local indicators and educational partner feedback also indicate that we have needs in the following areas:

*Continued intervention supports in place for students who are performing below grade level

Annual Review
Describe the overall implementation of these goals from the previous year. If this is a new goal an analysis is not required.

Based on last year's SPSA we were able to hire support staff to help provide intervention and purchase technology and other supplemental materials to support student learning. We were also able to implement PD for our staff to increase academics.
	
Identified Need(s)
As a result of the analysis of data and your annual implementation review, describe any changes that will be made (next school year) in this goal, annual metrics, and actions to achieve this goal.

Annual Review
Describe the overall implementation of these goals from the previous year. If this is a new goal an analysis is not required.

Based on last year's SPSA goals, we were able to increase communication with our parents around attendance and provide additional resources for our families around SEL to improve attendance and decrease suspension rates. We also hired an additional Home liaison to support with family connectedness.
	
Identified Need(s)

As a result of the analysis of data and your annual implementation review, describe any changes that will be made (next school year) in this goal, annual metrics, and actions to achieve this goal.

While we saw a decrease overall in chronic absentee rates, we still have a high percent of students who were chronically absent in the White subgroup.

Recommendations and Assurances

The School Site Council (SSC) recommends this school plan and proposed expenditures to the district governing board for approval and assures the board of the following:
•	The SSC is correctly constituted and was formed in accordance with district governing board policy and state law.
•	The SSC reviewed its responsibilities under state law and district governing board policies, including those board policies relating to material changes in the School Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) requiring board approval.
•	The SSC sought and considered all recommendations from the following groups or committees before adopting this plan: SSC and ELAC (if applicable)

The SSC reviewed the content requirements for school plans of programs included in this SPSA and believes all such content requirements have been met, including those found in district governing board policies and in the local educational agency plan.

This SPSA is based on a thorough analysis of student academic performance. The actions proposed herein form a sound, comprehensive, coordinated plan to reach stated school goals to improve student academic performance.

This SPSA was adopted by the SSC at a public meeting on May 14, 2024.
