Agenda Item Summary:
|
This Board Brief contains high-level key measurement data pertaining to the division’s strategic response to the closure of school through June 2020. The measures were identified to facilitate organizational learning and improvements throughout the school closure period and to inform current planning efforts. Key takeaways from these measures include: strong responses across all groups to social-emotional support during the closure, academic progress cited by students and families, and a clear understanding of division decision-making. The critical area of focus remains increased student engagement across all students. |

Background:
|
The COVID-19 school closure prompted ACPS to strategically pivot as an organization to ensure that students have access to the physical, educational and social resources necessary to be successful. ACPS developed a theory of action which identified the overall key levers necessary to reach that goal: instruction, technology access, nutrition, health, and safety, and communication. To measure progress and inform future planning efforts ACPS identified key high-level measurement areas within each of these areas. While departments and schools have been tracking detailed data across each of these domains, there was also a need to provide a high-level view of performance across all identified areas. The attached document provides key findings and supporting figures illuminating high-level trends in identified critical areas throughout the closure period. This document is intended to provide a broad picture across these areas with more detailed information already being provided or forthcoming in School Board materials. |
