Speaker:

Quick Summary / Abstract:
Doug Orr, Associate Superintendent
Recommended Motion:
The Board is asked to approve the Third Quarterly Williams Review Report for 2018-19.
Rationale:
As a result of the Williams Settlement, Education Code section 1240 requires that county offices of education visit schools in their country that ranked in deciles 1 to 3 on the 2012 Base Academic Performance Index (API) (Williams Schools). Education Code section 1240(c)(2)(G) requires the county superintendent of schools to send quarterly reports regarding the results of school site visits and reviews conducted each quarter to the governing boards of the school districts with Williams schools. The results can then be made public at a regularly scheduled and noticed meeting of each district's governing board.
A summary of the report is below:
During the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2018-19, Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE) staff did not conduct any site reviews of instructional materials or facilities.
The School Accountability Report Card (SARC) of each of the District's Williams schools was reviewed for accuracy as required by 1240(c)(2)(I). The information contained in the schools' SARCs was generally clear. In order to provide assistance in preparing your District's SARCs for next year, a chart (Exhibit A) is enclosed that provides detailed suggestions for further improvement of the District SARCs.
During the third quarter ending March 31, 2019, SCOE conducted no reviews of Teacher Vacancies and Misassignments.
The District reported no Uniform Complaint Procedure (UCP) filings in the third quarter ending March 31, 2019.
The full report is attached.
