Agenda Review Type Agenda Review for the August 27, 2024 School Board Meeting: Question #1 11.01 - Strengthening Career and Technical Education for the 21 st Century Act: Performance Metrics What are the performance metrics measured? Is the exhaustive performance indicator's list on page 15? Underperformance Root Cause Will you expound on why marketing a program will increase the population of nontraditional students? Will the school district apply for the Carl Perkins V secondary grant? On page 22 of the grant, one of the needs listed identifies specific program training for high school guidance counselors in the area of Career Dual Enrollment. Has there been consideration for hiring career navigators? On page 30 of the grant (section 10. Accountability and Program Improvement), LTC indicated that it tracked student data enrolled in programs. Does LTC track job placement rates as one of its tracking metrics? The budget narrative (pg. 51 of attachment) reveals one automotive instructor teaching a dual enrollment program housed at Lincoln. 38% of the entire grant is used to cover one position at one high school. Is that correct? How will that address the underperformance issues noted earlier?
