Moreland board reviews midyear LCAP progress; absenteeism improves, mainstreaming dips slightly

At its Thursday meeting the Moreland School District board received a midyear Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) update that combined outcome metrics, implementation notes, and midyear expenditures. Presenters said some assessment data (I-Ready) remain in progress but highlighted several midyear takeaways: textbook sufficiency at 100%, a higher reclassification rate for English learners (8.2%), a decline in chronic absenteeism from 13% to 10.4% so far this year, and a slight decline in the proportion of students spending at least 80% of their day in general education (from 65% to 61%).
