Compliance Mandates
Annual evaluation by the SSC and LEA is a critical part of the continuous cycle of improvement for a school.
Furthermore, it is an integral component of the Compensatory Ed (CE) Federal Program Monitoring (FPM) review process for SPSAs. During an FPM review, the SSC and LEA must be able to provide evidence of the evaluation process to determine if the needs of students are being met by the strategies described in the SPSA.

SB 374 – Schools that receive categorical program funding throughout the Consolidated Application are required to develop a Single Plan for Student Achievement. The Consolidated Application (ConApp) is used by the California Department of
Education (CDE) to distribute categorical funds from various state and federal programs to school districts. Annually, each school district (LEA) submits the application to document participation in these programs and provide assurances that the district will comply with the legal requirements of each program.
Ed Code 64001(g) These plans must be reviewed and updated based on the most current student achievement data. The SSC must evaluate at least annually the effectiveness of planned activities. In the cycle of continuous improvement of student performance, evaluation of the results of goals will provide data to inform and guide subsequent plans.
Sec. 9101 (37) of the ESEA – These plans should reflect new priorities based on new/additional student needs and/or similar methodologies with effective measurable outcomes.

Steps of Developing the SPSA1. Analyze current Student Achievement Data
2. Measure Effectiveness of Current Improvement Strategies Using the State Tools to Determine Critical Causes of Student Underachievement
3. Identify Achievement Goals and Key Improvement Strategies that Align with the District LEA Plan
4. Consult with school advisory groups
5. Define Timelines, Personnel Responsible, Proposed Expenditures, and Funding Sources to Implement the Plan
6. Recommend the SPSA to the Local Governing Board
7. Implement the Plan
8. Monitor Implementation Mid-year changes to the SPSA Continue the Cycle

Rationales
27
Compliant Rationales –Response from CDE evaluation Spring Report 2013
“…in continuing to analyze and make sense of the SPSA for each of the schools, I see a real weakness in the way the schools are utilizing the template … they are very short on "Description of Proposed Expenditures/Activities to Attain Goal...”
28
Compliant Rationales –Response from CDE evaluation Spring Report 2013
“…stating "Class size reduction in core classrooms" or "Instructional materials to support learning" don't provide an adequate description of the activity or strategy and the students to be served by it”.
“This poses a real problem regarding…making determinations Supplement vs. Supplant”.
29
Categorical Expenditures
All supplemental expenditures in categoricals must be linked to goals in the SPSA to specific Academic Core Programs
30
Rationale Examples
Noncompliant Class size Reduction in
Core Classrooms
Compliant Class size reduction
