Board asks for public posting and Spanish update of revised goals; staff confirms cohort reporting
Summary
Board members asked that the revised goals be made publicly visible on the district website and that the Spanish version be updated; staff confirmed that reported scores represent intact cohorts of students.
Board members requested clearer public access to the district's revised goals and an updated Spanish-language presentation. During discussion, a board member asked, 'Can we make the goals more publicly visible on the website? Can we update the Spanish version of the goals presentation with the revised numbers?'
A staff member confirmed that the district will make changes to improve visibility and translations and clarified cohort reporting: 'Yes, these scores represent intact cohorts. Students in K-5 took both STAR‑Reading and Acadience last year. Students in K-5 took both STAR‑math and i‑Ready. Students not part of the intact cohort are included in school-level data monitoring for instruction.' The board closed the meeting after that exchange and adjourned at 7:00 p.m.
The discussion produced specific follow-up requests for communications staff to update public-facing materials and for the board to monitor how cohort data are presented to ensure clarity for families.
