District emphasizes feeder-district collaboration (CALS) and partnership with Rio Hondo College
Summary
Board heard updates on CALS meetings with four feeder districts to align priority standards and on a Rio Hondo Math Academy partnership that will provide summer materials aligned to the districtpriority standards.
District leaders described CALS (Collaborative Administrative Leadership Series), a recurring cross-district meeting that brings five districts together to co-create priorities and action plans for math alignment.
"We rotate who's gonna play host, and we co-create the agendas," Dr. Kirk McGinnis said, summarizing the CALS structure. He and other presenters said the work focuses on vertical alignment (8th grade through high school) so that elementary and middle school partners and the high school district teach compatible priority standards.
Presenters also announced a partnership with Rio Hondo College: the Rio Hondo Math Academy will pilot summer workbooks built on the districtpriority standards and offer programming for IM1, IM2, IM3 and precalculus. The district said materials will be provided to students participating in the academy.
