Using Multiple Measures to Demonstrate Growth

While the CA School Dashboard offers valuable data, it never captures the full story of a charter. In this session, we will explore how charter schools, including DASS schools, can effectively demonstrate their growth and success through diverse measures. Attendees will be able to identify measures key to renewal under AB1505, including verified assessments and post-secondary success indicators, and how to integrate these multiple measures into continuous improvement cycles and LCAP reporting. Our experts will prepare you to communicate your success across measures to your school community.
