HIGH SCHOOL REPORT Corcoran High School ASB representative Julia Avila informed the Board that ASB has set a goal this year to raise school spirit and they are doing a really good job of it. It was evident at a recent rally for the wrestling and basketball teams. ASB is bringing back the Panther News. It became defunct spring semester of last year. Advisor Kellen DeVaney suggested ASB take over the project and the group agreed. They will begin filming and the news will be sent out by email to all first period teachers. Other events are the Pennies for Patients fundraiser for Leukemia. It will be a class competition amongst the intervention classes. SUPERINTENDENT’S REPORT New District Office Employee: Mr. Merlo asked CBO Pamela Dihel introduce Jeannine Robinson to the Board. Jeannine is the District’s new Account Clerk/Assets Analyst. The Board welcomed her to the District. Principal’s Summit: Mr. Merlo advised the Board that the Principal Summits will be taking place soon. It is a time where principals spend a dedicated amount of time to share how their schools are progressing. It provides a benchmark on how the schools are doing. He added that it has become a professional learning community amongst the administrators so they can learn from one another and see how their goals are coming along. Coach Doug White: Mr. Merlo noted that Girls Basketball Coach Doug White is nearing becoming the Valley’s girls’ basketball coach with the most wins. There will be a rally and presentation after he attains that honor. They will be contacting former players and inviting them to be part of the celebration. Mr. Merlo added that the District is really proud of him.

Education Elements Proposal: Mr. Merlo advised the Board that Education Elements is the company that provided fellowship for Personalized Learning. They are working with other districts in the nation and helped the District’s leadership team know what personalized learning is all about. They assisted the District administrators at the conference in New Jersey. The proposal is for the company to provide their expertise in what personalized learning should be in Corcoran and help to make it systemic in the classrooms. The cost will be about $36,000. Mr. Merlo did not want the fellowship to be in limbo, but to take it to the next level. He added that the District is ready now for the next step. BOARD OF TRUSTEE REPORTS Trustee Bobby Toney reported that he had attended the choir concert and that the students were raising money. He questioned why they were raising funds.

INSTRUCTION BP 6152.1 Placement in Mathematics Courses

Page 1 of 2

Policy proposed: January 26, 2016 CORCORAN UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT

The Governing Board believes that a sound educational program must include the study of subjects that prepare students for admission to higher education and/or a fulfilling career. To the extent possible, district students shall be provided an opportunity to complete a sequence of mathematics courses recommended for admission into the University of California and California State University systems.

(cf. 6141.5 - Advanced Placement) (cf. 6142.92 - Mathematics Instruction) (cf. 6143 - Courses of Study) (cf. 6146.1 - High School Graduation Requirements)

The Superintendent or designee shall work with district teachers, counselors, and administrators and the representatives of feeder schools to develop consistent protocols for placing students in mathematics courses offered at district high schools. Such placement protocols shall systematically take into consideration multiple objective academic measures that may include, but are not limited to, interim and summative assessments, placement tests that are aligned to state-adopted content standards in mathematics, classroom assignment and grades, and report cards.

(cf. 5121 - Grades/Evaluation of Student Achievement) (cf. 6162.5 - Student Assessment) (cf. 6162.51 - State Academic Achievement Tests)

Students shall be enrolled in mathematics courses based on the placement protocols. No student shall repeat a mathematics course which he/she has successfully completed based on the district's placement protocols.

When a student does not qualify to be enrolled in a higher level mathematics course based on a consideration of the objective measures specified in the placement protocols, he/she may nevertheless be admitted to the course based on the recommendation of a teacher or counselor who has personal knowledge of the student's academic ability.

The placement protocols shall specify a time within the first month of the school year when students shall be reevaluated to ensure that they are appropriately placed in mathematics courses and shall specify the criteria the district will use to make this determination. Any student found to be misplaced shall be promptly placed in the appropriate mathematics course.

Within 10 school days of an initial placement decision or a placement decision upon reevaluation, a student and his/her parent/guardian who disagree with the placement of the student may appeal the decision to the Superintendent or designee. The Superintendent or designee shall decide whether or not to overrule the placement determination within 10 school days of receiving the appeal. The decision of the Superintendent or designee shall be final.

(cf. 5123 - Promotion/Acceleration/Retention)

District staff shall implement the placement protocols uniformly and without regard to students' race, sex, gender, nationality, ethnicity, socioeconomic background, or other subjective or discriminatory consideration in making placement decisions.

(cf. 0410 - Nondiscrimination in District Programs and Activities)

The Superintendent or designee shall ensure that all teachers, counselors, and other district staff responsible for determining students' placement in mathematics courses receive training on the placement protocols.

(cf. 4131 - Staff Development)

INSTRUCTION BP 6152.1 Placement in Mathematics Courses

Page 2 of 2

Policy proposed: January 26, 2016 CORCORAN UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT

Prior to the beginning of each school year, the Superintendent or designee shall communicate the district's commitment to providing students with the opportunity to complete mathematics courses recommended for college admission, including approved placement protocols and the appeal process, to parents/guardians, students, teachers, school counselors, and administrators.

This policy and the district's mathematics placement protocols shall be posted on the district's web site. (Education Code 51224.7)

(cf. 1113 - District and School Web Sites)

Annually, the Board and the Superintendent or designee shall review student data related to placement and advancement in the mathematics courses offered at district high schools to ensure that students who are qualified to progress in mathematics courses based on their performance on objective academic measures are not held back in a disproportionate manner on the basis of their race, ethnicity, gender, or socioeconomic background. The Board and Superintendent shall also consider appropriate recommendations for removing any identified barriers to students' access to mathematics courses.

shall start on its Subscription Start Date, as indicated in such Service

Order, and ends on the last day of its Subscription Duration. A Service

Order shall automatically renew for subsequent terms equal to twelve

(12)-months, unless either party notifies the other in writing of its intent

not to renew at least 90 days prior to the expiration of the then current

term.

7.3 Termination for breach. Either party may immediately

terminate this MSA and all Service Orders for material breach of this



MSA by the other party if such breach is not cured within 30 days after

EdElements and Customer in Sections 2.2, 7.5, and 8-13 shall survive

thereof) belonging to the other party. If requested by Customer no later

recurring fees shall be invoiced 30 days prior to the start of the

the overdue balance at the rate of 1.5% per month or the maximum

permitted by law, whichever is less, plus all expenses of collection. All

addition to the fees charged, and borne solely by Customer. In the

event of a conflict in terms between this Section 8 and an applicable

Service Order, the applicable terms of such Service Order shall prevail.

Therefore the roadmap and sessions outlined below are a foundation for our work together, which are supplemented with frequent touchpoints to pause and reflect, discuss whether or not the initiative is meeting your goals, and identify effective strategies to ensure success.
