Our Principal has held a Data dive session that overviewed the indicators on the CA Dashboard with the Assistant Principals and
other school leaders to reflect on the progress made and the areas of improvement as a school.

Principal Our Lead EL Specialist held a reflection and planning session with the EL specialists at our school to take time to discuss the progress
made so far this year and to touch on areas that could be better addressed in the upcoming school year.

I took both of these colleagues’ leadership roles and felt that it would also be beneficial for the educators to have time to come

response to questions.
Analysis and Summary of Audience Assessment
Directions: Record assessment data into Assessment Data Table (see end of document). Include copies of assessment tool with submission. Include at least one graph in your summary.

Parents seemed to agree with the LCAP goals that were developed, but there was some concern that the distance learning model may pose a challenge to the goals that
were presented. Parents gave feedback about potentially considering adjusting the goals so that they would be attainable even while the school is in the distance
learning format. During the feedback portion of the presentation, parents also provided valuable feedback about how they really liked that meeting was virtual and
they recommended adding virtual options for other parent meetings, even post- distance learning, because they liked the flexibility in being able to attend from home.
This was not something that we necessarily foresaw happening, but we are happy that the new format we were limited to was well-received.

Supporting in the development of LCAP as a part of the writing team was such an incredible learning experience this semester, it
