Board hears PBIS update and midyear LCAP showing higher attendance and improved academic indicators
Loading...
Summary
Staff reported progress on Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) across campuses and a midyear LCAP check showing 97.27% attendance, lower suspension rates and improvements in i-Ready indicators; administrators said some campuses have moved into tier-2 interventions.
School leaders updated the board Feb. 9 on PBIS implementation and the Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) midyear review.
Petra, PBIS lead, described the multi-tiered PBIS framework used at the five academies: site-specific expectations (ROCK, BRAVE, STAR), reinforcement systems (paper tickets and a new Kickboard digital pilot), and behavior flowcharts that delineate staff-managed vs. office-managed behaviors. She said teams meet regularly to review referral data and refine tier 1 and tier 2 supports; some campuses have advanced into tier-2 interventions for targeted students.
Laura presented the LCAP midyear results tied to four district goals: math, literacy, attendance/culture and staff retention. She highlighted increases on i-Ready indicators, literacy intervention expansion (phonics-based UFly interventions), and stronger staff training and onboarding. Notably, the midyear attendance rate was reported at 97.27% and suspension rate at 0.2%.
Board members asked about parent engagement strategies tied to behavior supports. Petra said counselors and principals will work with families and distribute informational materials; some family messaging is already planned (attendance campaigns and family updates) and the district will continue parent outreach for prevention and reinforcement.
Staff said PBIS and LCAP work is ongoing, with site-level adjustments and data-driven monitoring planned for the remainder of the year.
