Thank you. We are at item C2 through C5 and we do not have any reports from staff or appointed districtCommitteesOr other district organizations. We are in item D, visitor comments. We do have speaker cards for general visitor comments, comments are limited to two minutes, the clock on the screen counts down the timeAnd that the Ralph M Brown the board is not allowed to comment on items not on the agenda so we are not ignoring your comments, we just can't respondTo individual comments. The superintendent can refer items to staff to follow up with you. Please facilitate public comment. >>Our first speaker is Mark so Bell. >>That evening, board members of the San Juan unified school district. I name is Mike's horrible "Mark Sobel and my son Matthew is a fourth-grader. Imagine you're on an airplaneAnd there's no pilot.Imagine you are scheduled for surgeryAnd there's no doctor.From Thursday, October 14, 2025, the opening day of school, tomorrow, Wednesday, November 19, 2025, there will be 14 whole weeks that special education classroom G1 has had no certified special education teacher and for the past month the classroom has not even had a substitute teacher.The 11 special education studentsIn Miramonte classroom G1 are the students on that plane with no pilot and at that surgery table with no doctor and for my son, Matthew, this is the third time in five years that Miramonte did not have a certified special education teacher at the start of the school year. This is a clear pattern of institutional failure by the San Juan unified school district. As you know, the individuals with disabilities education act requires the services listed in the student's IEP be provided as scheduled. In the absence of a certified special education teacher In the absence of a substitute teacher Patently leads to a denial of a free and appropriate public education. Any alleged teacher shortage which is obviously real is not a viable legal excuse and does not negate the legal Obligation to provide the services Through the IEP. We know that this failure by the district is something that disappoints each of you as well and I hope you will see this concern on my partAs advocacy for each of you as wellAs opposed to being adversarial. Thank you very much. >>That was our final public comment. >>We are at item E, consent calendar, do any boardMembers wish to remove any items from the consent calendar? Seeing none, is there a motion to approve items E137?Moved by Ms. Costa, seconded by Ms. Krajicek, all those in favorSay aye, opposed, abstentions? The motion carried 6-0 with one not voting. We are at item G1, end of year summary for elementary. >>Good evening, President AB, members of the board, acting superintendent Alan and Ms. Cunningham, it's a pleasure to be here with you this evening,The superintendent is recommending the board received a report regarding elementary end of year data Including the outcomes of the California assessmentStudent performance and progress assessments. Otherwise known as Casper. Joining me tonight to present is director of assessments evaluation and planning Chris Smith, I will turn it over to him To go through our presentation. >>Good evening, President, members of the board.Acting superintendent Alan, Ms. Cunningham. Tonight we are here to presentA '24-'25 end of the year data summary for our elementary and T K-8 schools.During this presentation, we will discuss cast data for growth and statusOn arts and mathematics, then we will finish off the look atChronic absenteeism and suspension.. Quick refresher from a few weeks ago when I shared secondary results. You look at cast two ways, growth and status.FirstIs growth, distance from standard, RDFS, shows how far our students are Bulova below the standardScales, so it is our clearestWins for year-to-year movement for every http://student.Here is elementary ELA using distance from standard from grades 3 to 8. Note that grades 6 to 8 Reflect only students at K-6 and K-8 schools. We moved two points toward standard from 41.5Below to 39.5 below, which is meaningful progress after last year's eight point decline. What is helping at many sites are tight literacy regimesSuch as when time, also known as(INAUDIBLE) timer small glue group lots with frequent progress monitoring and regrouping. He'll achieve academic languageAnd PLC data conversations with clear reading goals. We will next look at these dataBy grade level. As we look at the(INAUDIBLE) for 3 to 5, we see steadyGain toward standard. Grade 5And for arise butGrade 3 is essentially(INAUDIBLE). Here's the view for grades 6 to 8 in Arcata six and Kate eight schools.Grade 7 moves closer to standard. Grade 6 is essentially flat and grade 8Is far from standard. If you recall from the presentation we see the same pattern in our traditional middle schools.We are seeing real movement here. The green marker show many groups are improving at ELA this year with notable gains for students with disabilities who moved about 13 points closer to standard and solid growth for foster youth in the Asian students. Most groups are still below The district average line so we need to keep pressing. We also see long-term Continue to sit well below standard which is a key reason we have a district goal focused on accelerating the progress.. Now let's look at some of our individual elementary and K-8 Students that are making remarkable progress at ELA.We are celebrating strong LA growth in elementary and K-3 schools. The celebration slidesWere built from preliminary numbers. Since then the California school dashboard is published final results of the schools listed here although a few point values may differ slightly.Using dashboard Benchmarks, 44% of our elementary schoolsIn K-8 school show considerable The LA growth. You might ask what fueled these gains in some of our schools. At Twin Lakes, they ran a schoolwide (INAUDIBLE) with common diagnostics, progress checks and regrouping, primary gradesAnchor instruction with its fish "instruction with explicit products in tier 1 and two and three support. Also, Arlington HeightsSet clear schoolwide reading goals and increased instructional time for students closestTwo standard coordinated through their grade levels and across many strut studies CLE strategies is a key lever for all students with a focus on yield achieve, yielding and building academic language. . Now we will shift to elementary math using the standard for grades 3 to 8. Unlike LA elementary math moves farther from standard. Our distance shifted from 51.5 belowTo 54.9 below, reinforcing her reasoning for a district right http://now.As we continue to look at math by grade level, standards become more difficult as grades progress , We see the stored scores getting aggressively lower from standard.This trend continues in grades six through eight members course the need "And underscores the need forIntervention. We are piloting our path adoption which includes a robust professional learning planIn a multilayered implementation approachThat supports students, teachers and administrators and families. Here is elementary math by student group. Unlike ELA most student groups move the wrong way. We see a significant drop with our Pacific Islander treatments but there are some bright spots such as Filipino students moving close to standard with a 10 point gain, OverallIt's between the top and bottomGroups, the variance is wide. We want a focus on every student group. This site highlights elementary schools that made measurable math growth. Behind these gains are repeatable practices. For example, Pasadena Avenue UtilizedThe universal access mapWith pushing support, We beat data huddles to spot error patterns and, Targeted many lessons.Also,Kaddish decided the classroom building routines with random groups and vertical boards, exit checks could to see who is stuck in the deployment of shortJust-in-time many lessons to shore up prerequisite skills . Many of the sites are utilizing their intervention teachers in math as well as inELA. These are moves to be lifted so sites can be accelerated and accelerate growth. Stabilize and Now that we have looked at results around the campus and growth will move to a metric more aligned status that is showing the percentage of students meeting or exceeding the standard. Here is elementary ELA % meeting or exceeding standard for grades 3 to 8. We are flat at 36.7% while the state increase by about two points. Here's elementary LA meeting or exceeding by grade, grades three and four the state moved up more than we did. On the other hand, grade 5 shows solid growth that is about on pace with the state. Here is meeting Eric seating for grade 68. Six and eight, the state moved up more than we did, but at grade 7, we made a strong jump and significantly outpace the state which grew about 2% Compared to our almost 5%. Now from an equity lens, here's ELA status by student group. Few groups sit above this average yet most remained below it. Which means we still have substantial acceleration work ahead. There are real bright spots to learn from includingStrong gains for foster youth, moved up meaningfully this year, at the same time results for American Indian students declineReminding us that progress is uneven and targeted support is essential. Hears elementary math % meeting or exceeding our grades. We declined from 35% to 29.3% while the state increase by about two points here this is a clear signal to accelerate our work in http://math.In response, we will look to implement the new materials adoption and provide high-quality professional learning and deliver targeted intervention where students need it most. All of supports our district math goal to increase the number of students performing at grade level.. Here isBy grade. Three and four down in grade 5 shows a small uptick. The state and Sacramento County grows about one percentage point each of these grades. And it grades 6 to 8, grade 7 is on pace with the state and county for improvement year-over-yearWhile grades six and eight are left behind. Here is math status by student group. You can see more red than green which means most are flat or declining in most sit below the district average. There are a few bright spots we can learn from, Filipino students rose sharply and are well above the average foster youth increased a small amount of students but still encouraging. Still too many student groups declined and we want to see more green next year. Now that we have rereviewed status, we will turn to a key driver of achievement, chronic absenteeism.Since we are now looking at chronic absenteeism, as a reminder from the secondary data trendsPresentation, grades are(INAUDIBLE) with chronic absenteeism so we want to see the grades going that "the bars going down. It declined more than %.Example, home visits, family engagement in school activities to better connect students to schoolAnd partnerships within TSS to engage families in multiple ways. Here's what the grade level picture tells us, that TK and kindergarten chronic absenteeism is high is sitting around three in 10 students. We want to see this continue to lower, but this is a significant decrease from a few years back when it was around 40%. From there we see a steady step down across the grades. Most grades improved from last year and the overall pattern is a downward staircaseThrough grade 5. These data we can seeThis is a call to action for our youngest(INAUDIBLE) to decrease their http://absenteeism.In contrast with RT K through five grades, we see6 to 8 chronic absenteeism rises as the grades get higher. This is different than our traditional middle school, the chronic absenteeism in 6 to 8 is fairly steady.. Here is chronic absenteeism by student. We have many groups improving at the top of the chart, which is positive, but we would like to see Chronic absenteeism declining. The fine improvement is for our socioeconomically disadvantaged students who made one of the largest productions year-over-year.. After looking at absenteeism by student, let's celebrate the schools that are moving. 44% of the elementary K-8 students made improvement as defined by the dashboard. Great works to the schools reducing absenteeism, improved attendance means more time in class which supports the gains we want to see in ELA and math.While absenteeism reflects students not being present, suspensions reflect students being removed from the learning environment due to http://behavior.Here are elementary suspension rates for T K-8. We moved from 2.9% last year to 2.7% this year. Small but positive decline.For context, the California dashboard labels 1.6 to 3.0% medium, so we remain in the medium band while trending the right direction. . Here's theTK through five suspension picture. Unlike chronic absenteeism which steps down his grades increase suspension rates rise as students move http://upgrades.TK through grade 3 stayed low, roughly 1 to 1.6%, grades four and five Were the highest but still decline from the previous scho
