Summary: Pursuant to California Education Code (EC) Section 64001 and the federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA), schools that receive state and federal funds through the Consolidated Application and Reporting System (CARS) and ESEA Program Improvement funds consolidate all school plans into the Single Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA).

The purpose of the SPSA is to coordinate all educational services at the school. The SPSA shall, at a minimum, address how funds provided to the school through any of the sources identified in EC Section 64000 will be used to improve the academic performance of all pupils. School goals shall be based upon an analysis of verifiable state data. The SPSA must integrate the purposes and requirements of all state and federal categorical programs in which the school participates.

The SPSA serves as the organizer for an individual school’s improvement process. The plan is developed with a deep understanding of the root causes of student academic challenges to identify and implement research-based instructional strategies to raise the achievement of students who are not yet proficient by state standards. A well-developed SPSA can ensure that students are better equipped to meet the Common Core State Standards in English and math. Each school’s SPSA must build on the premise that students are capable of learning with effective instruction:

- Includes school goals aligned with activities and goals included in the LEA Plan to maximize school reform efforts.
- Is based on verifiable data analysis.
- Focuses on student achievement and academic interventions.
- Implements high leverage school improvement actions.
- Directs resources where they will most directly improve student academic achievement.
- Ensures that all resources are aligned to serve identified students’ needs.
- Uses research-based strategies.
- Implements strategic coordination of resources.

To set school goals, the School Site Councils (SSC) should carefully review District priorities as stated in the LCAP Plan and assess state and local quantitative and qualitative student achievement data to evaluate the effectiveness of the instructional program.

Proposed changes to the SPSAs include updated goals to improve student outcomes, identified through each school ELAC developed needs assessments that address ELs' academic and language proficiency needs and evidence-based strategies, actions, and services to meet these goals.

Each school site has received approval for its plan from its respective School Site Councils.
Funding: No fiscal impact.
