WASC Updates
Mr. Nelson led the review of the WASC progress-to-goals report and the newly proposed 3-year LCAP/WASC Plan. The participants also reviewed the Mid-Cycle Visit report from the past spring and discussed updates, progress, and key takeaways that need to be tracked through the end of our WASC cycle. The committee members asked questions about the materials and presentation, particularly regarding the data in some progress-to-goals sections. Board members had no further comments on the LCAP draft, beyond all the items shared at the May 6th board meeting.
C.
Newly Proposed LCAP/WASC Three-Year Plan Review
Board members requested that the revised LCAP/WASC Plan for the June board meeting include an executive summary that notes the specific changes from the previous draft as well as goal areas and page locations. The executive summary should precede the document itself in the board packet. A suggestion was made that in the future, the LCAP draft might be reviewed by the committee before it is presented to the board; leadership noted this may not be possible or desirable.
D.
Discussion of Approach to Meetings
Committee members discussed the approach to future meetings, which includes combining the spring CIRAC and WASC committee meetings, reading progress reports beforehand, and targeting high-focus areas such as math achievement growth, college and career outcomes, and community climate, as well as adequate time for questions from board members on the pre-reads.
