Proposition 98 requires that every educational agency prepare annual School Accountability Report Cards – SARC.  Below please find the SARCS for the following Marin County Office of Education programs:
 

• Marin's Community School
• Phoenix Academy
• Juvenile Court School
• Special Education

California’s systems of support is one of the central components of the California Accountability and Continuous Improvement System.  The goal of the system of support is to help local educational agencies (LEASs) and their schools meet the need of each student they serve, with a focus on building local capacity to sustain improvement and to effectively address disparities in opportunities and outcomes.
 

The characteristics within California’s system of support are:
 

• Reduce redundancy across state and federal programs
• Integrate guidance and resources across state and federal programs

• Support LEAs to meet identified student needs through the LCAP process

Level 1 – Support for All:

Marin County Office of Education provides an array of support resources, services, tools and technical assistance to our districts, schools and community to improve student performance at the school level and narrow disparities among student groups.

Level 2 – Differentiated Assistance:

County superintendents, charter authorizers, the California Department of Education (CDE), and the California Collaborative for Educational Excellence (CCEE) provide differentiated assistance for LEAs, in the form of individually designed assistance, to address identified performance issues, including significant disparities in performance among student groups
 

• County Offices of Education offer differentiated assistance to a school district if any student group does not meet performance standards for two or more LCFF priority areas. 
• The California Department of Education must offer differentiated assistance to a COE if any student group does not meet the performance standard for two or more LCFF priorities
• Charter authorizers must provide differentiated assistance to a charter school if three or more student groups (or all student groups if the charter school has less than three student groups) does not meet the performance standard for any LCFF priority area in three out of four consecutive school years

LEA Criteria for Differentiated Assistance:

To be identified for support, the same student group must meet the criteria in two different priority areas.  If an LEA does not meet a local indicator, all student groups are deemed as not meeting that local indicator:  Click here for tp view LEA Criteria for Differentiated Support on the CDE website.

The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires state educational agencies to determine school eligibility for comprehensive support and improvement (CSI). Local educational agencies (LEAs) with schools that meet the criteria for CSI must partner with stakeholders to locally develop and implement a plan to improve student outcomes.
 

The county office of education (COE) also plays a role in providing technical assistance and support to LEAs within its county that serve schools that meet the criteria for CSI.

School EligibilityCriteria

California will use the California School Dashboard (Dashboard) to determine school eligibility for CSI. School eligibility is based on the following two categories of schools:
 

1. High schools with a graduation rate less than 67 percent averaged over two years
   1. All high schools, including Title I, non-Title I, traditional, and Dashboard Alternative School Status are eligible.
       
2. Not less than the lowest-performing five percent of Title I schools
   1. Schools with all red indicators
   2. Schools with all red but one indicator of another color
   3. Schools with five or more indicators where the majority are red
   4. Schools with all red and orange indicators

The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires state educational agencies to determine school eligibility for targeted support and improvement (TSI) and additional targeted support and improvement (ATSI).
 

Schools that meet the criteria for TSI or ATSI must partner with stakeholders to develop and implement a school-level plan to improve student outcomes.
 

California will notify each local educational agency (LEA) in the State of any school served by the LEA, in which any subgroup of students is consistently underperforming.
 

Upon notification by the State, the LEA is required to:
 

• Provide notification to such school with respect to which student group or student groups in such school are consistently underperforming
• Approve and monitor implementation of each school plan
• Take additional action following unsuccessful implementation of such school plan after a number of years determined by the LEA

Upon notification by the LEA, the school is required to partner with stakeholders to:
 

• Develop and implement a school-level plan to improve student outcomes
  
  The school plan must:
   
  • be based on indicators in the statewide accountability system and informed by all indicators, including student performance against long-term goals; and
  • include evidence-based interventions.

Additional Targeted Support and Improvement

ATSI program requirements are the same as for TSI. However, schools that meet the criteria for ATSI shall identify resource inequities, which may include a review of LEA- and school-level budgeting, to be addressed through implementation of their school plan.
