The new state accountability model, the Dashboard, includes the opportunity for reporting on progress on local indicators. This report goes beyond what the SBAC (English and Math statewide assessment in grades 6,7,8 and 11), ELPAC (English Language Proficiency state test), CALPADS (demographic reporting) and other measures report. 

A public report to the Board is required by the California Department of Education (CDE). A Board presentation on the Local Indicators must be done before they are posted on line. The deadline for posting is 11/16/18. 

The report has been prepared by Anjanette Urdanivia, a consultant who prepares the LCAP for Ceiba.

More information can be found on the CDE's website at https://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/cm/localindicators.asp
