School Plans
Each of the San Rafael City Schools spends a significant amount of time developing a Single Plan for Student Achievemnt (SPSA). The SPSA is a schoolwide plan of action intended to improve the academic performance of all students. State guidelines require that the SPSA include the following components:
-
Identification of site-specific achievement goals based on a variety of student performance data.
-
Description of specific instructional strategies to accelerate student learning.
-
Description of the ways in which student progress will be monitored on a regular basis.
-
Identification of interventions for students not achieving.
-
Determination of the necessary professional development for staff.
-
Delineation of strategies for parent communication and involvement.
-
Estimation of costs and funding sources.
-
Consultation with other site advisory groups.
SPSAs are developed, reviewed, and revised collaboratively by the School Site Council (SSC).
A School Site council (SSC) is a legally-required community group that provides school staff members, parents, community members, and students a voice in improving achievement.
