Page 2 of 99 Introduction: LEA: Newcastle Elementary School District Contact (Name, Title, Email, Phone Number): Kathleen Daugherty, Superintendent, [email protected], (916) 259-‐2832 ex.201 LCAP Year: July 1, 2015 -‐ June 30, 2018
Local Control and Accountability Plan and Annual Update Template
The Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) and Annual Update Template shall be used to provide details regarding local educational agencies’ (LEAs) actions and expenditures to support pupil outcomes and overall performance pursuant to Education Code sections 52060, 52066, 47605, 47605.5, and 47606.5. The LCAP and Annual Update Template must be completed by all LEAs each year. For school districts, pursuant to Education Code section 52060, the LCAP must describe, for the school district and each school within the district, goals and specific actions to achieve those goals for all pupils and each subgroup of pupils identified in Education Code section 52052, including pupils with disabilities, for each of the state priorities and any locally identified priorities. For county offices of education, pursuant to Education Code section 52066, the LCAP must describe, for each county office of education-‐operated school and program, goals and specific actions to achieve those goals for all pupils and each subgroup of pupils identified in Education Code section 52052, including pupils with disabilities, who are funded through the county office of education Local Control Funding Formula as identified in Education Code section 2574 (pupils attending juvenile court schools, on probation or parole, or mandatorily expelled) for each of the state priorities and any locally identified priorities. School districts and county offices of education may additionally coordinate and describe in their LCAPs services provided to pupils funded by a school district but attending county-‐operated schools and programs, including special education programs. Charter schools, pursuant to Education Code sections 47605, 47605.5, and 47606.5, must describe goals and specific actions to achieve those goals for all pupils and each subgroup of pupils identified in Education Code section 52052, including pupils with disabilities, for each of the state priorities as applicable and any locally identified priorities. For charter schools, the inclusion and description of goals for state priorities in the LCAP may be modified to meet the grade levels served and the nature of the programs provided, including modifications to reflect only the statutory requirements explicitly applicable to charter schools in the Education Code. The LCAP is intended to be a comprehensive planning tool. Accordingly, in developing goals, specific actions, and expenditures, LEAs should carefully consider how to reflect the services and related expenses for their basic instructional program in relationship to the state priorities. LEAs may reference and describe actions and expenditures in other plans and funded by a variety of other fund sources when detailing goals, actions, and expenditures related to the state and local priorities. LCAPs must be consistent with school plans submitted pursuant to Education Code section 64001. The information contained in the LCAP, or annual update, may be supplemented by information contained in other plans (including the LEA plan pursuant to Section 1112 of Subpart 1 of Part A of Title I of Public Law 107-‐110) that are incorporated or referenced as relevant in this document.
Page 3 of 99 For each section of the template, LEAs shall comply with instructions and should use the guiding questions as prompts (but not limits) for completing the information as required by statute. Guiding questions do not require separate narrative responses. However, the narrative response and goals and actions should demonstrate each guiding question was considered during the development of the plan. Data referenced in the LCAP must be consistent with the school accountability report card where appropriate. LEAs may resize pages or attach additional pages as necessary to facilitate completion of the LCAP.

Section 1: Stakeholder Engagement Meaningful engagement of parents, pupils, and other stakeholders, including those representing the subgroups identified in Education Code section 52052, is critical to the LCAP and budget process. Education Code sections 52060(g), 52062 and 52063 specify the minimum requirements for school districts; Education Code sections 52066(g), 52068 and 52069 specify the minimum requirements for county offices of education, and Education Code section 47606.5 specifies the minimum requirements for charter schools. In addition, Education Code section 48985 specifies the requirements for translation of documents. Instructions: Describe the process used to consult with parents, pupils, school personnel, local bargaining units as applicable, and the community and how this consultation contributed to development of the LCAP or annual update. Note that the LEA’s goals, actions, services and expenditures related to the state priority of parental involvement are to be described separately in Section 2. In the annual update boxes, describe the stakeholder involvement process for the review, and describe its impact on, the development of the annual update to LCAP goals, actions, services, and expenditures. Guiding Questions:
1) How have applicable stakeholders (e.g., parents and pupils, including parents of unduplicated pupils and unduplicated pupils identified in Education Code section 42238.01; community members; local bargaining units; LEA personnel; county child welfare agencies; county office of education foster youth services programs, court-‐appointed special advocates, and other foster youth stakeholders; community organizations representing English learners; and others as appropriate) been engaged and involved in developing, reviewing, and supporting implementation of the LCAP?
2) How have stakeholders been included in the LEA’s process in a timely manner to allow for engagement in the development of the LCAP? 3) What information (e.g., quantitative and qualitative data/metrics) was made available to stakeholders related to the state priorities and used by the LEA
to inform the LCAP goal setting process? How was the information made available? 4) What changes, if any, were made in the LCAP prior to adoption as a result of written comments or other feedback received by the LEA through any of
the LEA’s engagement processes? 5) What specific actions were taken to meet statutory requirements for stakeholder engagement pursuant to Education Code sections 52062, 52068, and
47606.5, including engagement with representatives of parents and guardians of pupils identified in Education Code section 42238.01? 6) What specific actions were taken to consult with pupils to meet the requirements 5 CCR 15495(a)? 7) How has stakeholder involvement been continued and supported? How has the involvement of these stakeholders supported improved outcomes for
pupils, including unduplicated pupils, related to the state priorities? Involvement Process Impact on LCAP Newcastle Elementary School District is a small school district in Northern California, known as the GEM of the foothills, and located on I 8o, Gateway to the Sierra's and beyond. Established in 1865 as a single school district, it has evolved into a district with multiple charter schools while maintaining the original elementary school and small school/district feel. Newcastle Elementary School District boasts of high achievement, wonderful parent and community involvement, and progressive 21st Century thinking. Parents and staff participate in all decisions regarding program development, textbook
This plan was developed as a result of the input and comments received from the parent and staff engagement. There was an enhanced knowledge and understanding of the plan for development of the LCAP in conjunction with the LCFF. There was an increased information flow between the school sites, stakeholder groups and District via the DAC and cabinet, as the DAC was comprised of a minimum of 2 members from each site, with one being a PTC/PTO representative. Parents participating on the DAC committee represent general ed, special education, GATE and Title 1/Low Income

adoption and budget decisions through a variety of processes including parent meetings, parent education workshops, surveys, and written text/information home (both digital and print).
students. The use of the district wide survey data and common core achievement data allowed school sites and the District to recognize gaps in program or services particularly in the areas of assessment, CCCSS instruction/student achievement, and site safety. Common themes and LCAP focus areas emerged from this process. These include facilities improvements, student safety to and from school, development of additional and extensive enrichment opportunities for all students and not just GATE, including STEM and visual and performing arts, and extended support for intervention and student learning outside of the school day and at home. Staff data included the need for additional support in the implementation of CCCSS, use of current technology tools and technology integration. In addition, priorities were also developed based upon the common themes listed above along with new data from the district wide benchmark assessments showing a lack of student proficiency in CCCSS across the grade levels, current district goals and the state priority areas. Stakeholder participation throughout the process allowed for greater understanding and alignment of student, school,staff and parent needs.
The development of this Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP) was no exception. Parents and staff participated in a district-‐wide survey. Additional input on topics was taken through a parent workshop and through School Site Council meetings. Although not a significant subgroup, EL (English Learner) parents were invited to a separate meeting to discuss concerns and were sent a separate and brief set of survey questions to elicit responses to better meet the needs of the EL students. Representatives of bargaining units and parent groups are invited to sit on and make recommendations to budget through committee meetings and attendance at local Board meetings. The District administration also holds monthly District Advisory Meetings (DAC) to discuss District and school site issues. A minimum of two representatives from each of the schools are members of the DAC and the meeting agendas and minutes are posted via a link from the District web site. DAC members take information back to the school sites to solicit additional information from their respective parent groups and recommendations from the DAC are also shared with the administrative team. The DAC was responsible for creating the survey and analyzing the results to be incorporated into this plan. The site administrators also work with their respective staff and school site groups to solicit input regarding budget, program, site safety and student support.
Changes to the draft plan from the input process of the DAC, school sites and public hearing include the addition of : 1. Parent and staff education in the area of program use for Schoology or any other LMS system to enhance parent communication and increase parent access to student performance 2. The addition of a web-‐based keyboarding program in the actions/services for all students to support 21st century skills The addition of a District wide data analysis system for formative and summative assessments and ability to monitor individual, grade level and school wide benchmark achievement progress over the Common Core Standards over time. 3. The addition of a sub finder calling system to ensure that all classes are properly staffed with a certificated substitute as an action/service for all students

Although there is not a subgroup of Homeless/Foster Youth, Racial/Ethnic or EL, the NES/NCS site administrator serves as a liaison to the Placer County Office of Education, and the District participates in a local grant to support Foster Youth/Homeless through Placer Union High School District. The certificated staff member assigned to coordinate services and support EL at the NES/NCS site participates in the County EL Committee meetings. In addition District administration participates in county Categorical meetings. Information from these meetings is taken back to the individual sites to support student programs and student needs in each of the categories. Those identified needs are also incorporated into this plan.
All stakeholders received information about the LCAP including the data needed to develop the plan. This was done through a series of parent and/or staff meetings/presentations. In addition, written communication was distributed home and posted to the website describing the new budget and plan development process. Prior state testing data and current data from student assessments and classroom performance was used by staff to make recommendations for goals in the LCAP. Input was taken from parents via the survey and special meetings, special education support staff, EL, Title 1 support staff, and classroom teachers via the councils and survey. The DAC has representation from families with students identified with learning disabilities, GATE, and low income. A separate English Learner parent group was established to futher gather information regarding the needs and desires of the families with English learners.
The following represents the timeline and involvement, along with the impact on the LCAP. Winter 2013/14: District leadership team comprised of Superintendent, Director of Ed Services and site directors/principals received specific and comprehensive training and updated information on the development of the LCAP. This information was shared at regular Board of Trustee meetings and taken back to the school sites. Articles and Information were posted to District and School websites.

Parents and staff participated in the district-‐wide survey. In addition, this year students were surveyed for engagement, safety and wellness which allowed us to change the nature of the staff survey in some areas. Additional input on topics identified as concerns was taken through a District-‐wide Common Core and LCAP parent workshop, along with specific LCAP goal discussions in District Advisory meetings and the NES School Site Council meetings. Although not a significant subgroup, EL (English Learner) parents were again invited to a separate meeting to discuss concerns and were sent a separate and brief set of survey questions to elicit responses to better meet the needs of the EL students. Representatives of bargaining units and parent groups are invited to sit on and make recommendations to budget through committee meetings and attendance at local Board meetings. The District administration also uses the
This plan was revised as a result of the input and comments received from the parent, student and staff engagement. There was far more knowledge and understanding of the plan for development of the LCAP in conjunction with the LCFF. There was an increased information flow between the school sites, stakeholder groups and District via the DAC and cabinet. The use of the district wide survey data, student survey data and common core achievement data allowed school sites and the District to recognize new or continuing gaps in program or services particularly in the areas of assessment, CCCSS instruction/student achievement, and student engagement and site safety. Similar themes and LCAP focus areas emerged from this process which continue to include facilities improvements, student safety to and from school, development of additional and extensive enrichment opportunities for all students and not just GATE, including STEM and visual and performing arts, and

monthly District Advisory Meetings (DAC) as mentioned above, to discuss District and school site issues. The DAC was recently reconfigured to be inclusive of all subgroups with a minimum of two representatives from each of the schools are members of the DAC and the meeting agendas and minutes are posted via a link from the District web site. The Governing Board took action to appoint the members of this committee to serve as the Parent Stakeholder Group. DAC members solicit additional information from their respective parent groups and recommendations from the DAC are also shared with the administrative team. As in the prior year, the DAC was responsible for creating all the surveys, and analyzing the results to be incorporated into this plan. The site administrators also work with their respective staff and school site groups to solicit input regarding budget, program, site safety and student support.
extended support for intervention and student learning outside of the school day and at home. Staff data included the need for additional support in the implementation of CCCSS, use of current technology tools and technology integration. In addition, priorities were refined with new data from the district wide benchmark assessments showing an improvement but still a lack of student proficiency in CCCSS across the grade levels. Stakeholder participation throughout the process allowed for greater understanding and alignment of student, school,staff and parent needs. Changes to the 2014-‐15 LCAP for 2015-‐16 from the input process of the DAC,parent surveys, student surveys, staff surveys, site administrators,school sites and public hearing include the addition of : 1. Continued parent and staff education in the area of program use for Schoology to enhance parent communication and increase parent access to student performance 2. The continued focus on the addition of a District wide data analysis system for formative and summative assessments and ability to monitor individual, grade level and school wide benchmark achievement progress over the Common Core Standards over time.

back to the individual sites to support student programs and student needs in each of the categories. Those identified needs are also incorporated into this plan. All stakeholders continue to receive information about the LCAP including the data needed to develop the plan. This was done through a series of parent and/or staff meetings/presentations. In addition, written communication is distributed home and posted to the website describing the results of the surveys and plan progress. Since no state assessment data was available, current data from student assessments and classroom performance was compared with last years benchmark assessments and was used by staff to make recommendations for goals in the LCAP. Input was taken from parents via the survey and special meetings, special education support staff, EL, Title 1 support staff, and classroom teachers via the councils and survey. As noted above, the DAC has representation from families with students identified with learning disabilities, GATE, and low income. A separate English Learner parent group was again established to further gather information regarding the needs and desires of the families with English learners.

Section 2: Goals, Actions, Expenditures, and Progress Indicators Instructions: All LEAs must complete the LCAP and Annual Update Template each year. The LCAP is a three-‐year plan for the upcoming school year and the two years that follow. In this way, the program and goals contained in the LCAP align with the term of a school district and county office of education budget and multiyear budget projections. The Annual Update section of the template reviews progress made for each stated goal in the school year that is coming to a close, assesses the effectiveness of actions and services provided, and describes the changes made in the LCAP for the next three years that are based on this review and assessment. Charter schools may adjust the table below to align with the term of the charter school’s budget that is submitted to the school’s authorizer pursuant to Education Code section 47604.33. For school districts, Education Code sections 52060 and 52061, for county offices of education, Education Code sections 52066 and 52067, and for charter schools, Education Code section 47606.5 require(s) the LCAP to include a description of the annual goals, for all pupils and each subgroup of pupils, to be achieved for each state priority as defined in 5 CCR 15495(i) and any local priorities; a description of the specific actions an LEA will take to meet the identified goals; a description of the expenditures required to implement the specific actions; and an annual update to include a review of progress towards the goals and describe any changes to the goals. To facilitate alignment between the LCAP and school plans, the LCAP shall identify and incorporate school-‐specific goals related to the state and local priorities from the school plans submitted pursuant to Education Code section 64001. Furthermore, the LCAP should be shared with, and input requested from, schoolsite-‐level advisory groups, as applicable (e.g., schoolsite councils, English Learner Advisory Councils, pupil advisory groups, etc.) to facilitate alignment between school-‐site and district-‐level goals and actions. An LEA may incorporate or reference actions described in other plans that are being undertaken to meet the goal. Using the following instructions and guiding questions, complete a goal table (see below) for each of the LEA’s goals. Duplicate and expand the fields as necessary. Goal: Describe the goal:
When completing the goal tables, include goals for all pupils and specific goals for schoolsites and specific subgroups, including pupils with disabilities, both at the LEA level and, where applicable, at the schoolsite level. The LEA may identify which schoolsites and subgroups have the same goals, and group and describe those goals together. The LEA may also indicate those goals that are not applicable to a specific subgroup or schoolsite.
Page 15 of 99
Related State and/or Local Priorities: Identify the state and/or local priorities addressed by the goal by placing a check mark next to the applicable priority or priorities. The LCAP must include goals that address each of the state priorities, as defined in 5 CCR 15495(i), and any additional local priorities; however, one goal may address multiple priorities. Identified Need: Describe the need(s) identified by the LEA that this goal addresses, including a description of the supporting data used to identify the need(s). Schools: Identify the schoolsites to which the goal applies. LEAs may indicate “all” for all schools, specify an individual school or a subset of schools, or specify grade spans (e.g., all high schools or grades K-‐5). Applicable Pupil Subgroups: Identify the pupil subgroups as defined in Education Code section 52052 to which the goal applies, or indicate “all” for all pupils. Expected Annual Measurable Outcomes: For each LCAP year, identify and describe specific expected measurable outcomes for all pupils using, at minimum, the applicable required metrics for the related state priorities. Where applicable, include descriptions of specific expected measurable outcomes for schoolsites and specific subgroups, including pupils with disabilities, both at the LEA level and at the schoolsite level.
The metrics used to describe the expected measurable outcomes may be quantitative or qualitative, although the goal tables must address all required metrics for every state priority in each LCAP year. The required metrics are the specified measures and objectives for each state priority as set forth in Education Code sections 52060(d) and 52066(d). For the pupil engagement priority metrics, LEAs must calculate the rates specified in Education Code sections 52060(d)(5)(B), (C), (D) and (E) as described in the Local Control Accountability Plan and Annual Update Template Appendix, sections (a) through (d).
Action/Services: For each LCAP year, identify all annual actions to be performed and services provided to meet the described goal. Actions may describe a group of services that are implemented to achieve the identified goal. Scope of Service: Describe the scope of each action/service by identifying the schoolsites covered. LEAs may indicate “all” for all schools, specify an individual school or a subset of schools, or specify grade spans (e.g., all high schools or grades K-‐5). If supplemental and concentration funds are used to support the action/service, the LEA must identify if the scope of service is districtwide, schoolwide, countywide, or charterwide. Pupils to be served within identified scope of service: For each action/service, identify the pupils to be served within the identified scope of service. If the action to be performed or the service to be provided is for all pupils, place a check mark next to “ALL.”
For each action and/or service to be provided above what is being provided for all pupils, place a check mark next to the applicable unduplicated pupil subgroup(s) and/or other pupil subgroup(s) that will benefit from the additional action, and/or will receive the additional service.

GOAL 1:
Focus on the CCCSS and depth of knowledge strategies in all content areas to provide instruction which will challenge/meet the needs of all students to prepare them with 21st Century college and career ready skills. Raise the levels of student performance to a high level of proficiency in CCCSS and 21st Century learning through specifically designed interventions, enrichment, differentiated classroom instruction, project based and blended learning, and parent education for all students including VAPA (Visual and Performing Arts) and foreign language.

Identified Need : IDENTIFIED NEEDS Base upon input from staff and parents from recent surveys, El input and student data analysis we need to: 1) Fully implement the CCCSS District wide in Language Arts, Mathematics, Science and History. 2) Raise student achievement levels based on data from new District-wide assessment system in which the average % of students scoring in both CCCSS reading/language arts and math was 50% or below, although school sites varied by grade level. 3) increase EL reclassification rate to insure that students are reclassified as proficient within 3 years of entering the program 4) Train all staff to competent/knowledgeable in differentiation, project-based instruction, blended learning, assessment, technological instructional strategies and technology integration. 5) Insure that all classroom teachers and support personnel are highly qualified(HQT) and that there continues to be complete compliance with The Williams Act in all areas. Based upon recent surveys with parents and staff, students need more instruction in STEM and to be offered more enrichment and support opportunities to grow to their full potential. In order to prepare students for College and Career readiness and ensure the successful achievement of CCCSS, NESD (Newcastle Elementary School District) needs to: 1) Expand, enrich and enhance student intervention, enrichment opportunities for all students before, during and after school for all grade levels and in all content areas, 2) Differentiate and provide additional enrichment, resources and learning opportunities for identified GATE students. 3) Differentiate lessons for student learning to provide for students not meeting basic grade level and skill requirements for CCCSS. 4) Educate parents to support student learning in the core areas of CCCSS, College and Career Readiness and the use of technology. METRIC(S) TO MEASURE PROGRESS 1) Student achievement data analysis by all students (district, school site) and subgroups (district,school site) with current trimester District Benchmark Assessments in grades K-8th using CAASPP and Smarter Balance formative assessments, Measured Progress assessment data designed for each grade level, Lexia Reading or other newly adopted system currently being piloted such as Galileo or ATI; 2) Adopted Publisher assessments from Reading/Language Arts, History, Science and math adopted and CCCSS aligned textbooks; 3) STAR reading assessments from Renaissance Learning, 4) CELDT, 5) student presentations/projects aligned to the CCCSS; 6) student observations, report cards or Schoology progress indicators; 7) results from the CAASPP and the new API when available; 8) Williams quarterly reports; 9) Parent, Student and Staff surveys, 10)Teacher observations and evaluations 11) 8th grade graduation rates 12) El Reclassification rates as per District adopted policies

Measurable Outcomes:
Students will receive and benefit from instruction in all TK-8th grade classrooms focused on NESD Challenge 21 Standards with lessons designed around the and centered upon the CCCS. All students will have access to the CCCS aligned instructional materials related support/enrichment materials and digital curriculum, which will include home/school support activities designed to improve skills, raise depth of knowledge and overall understanding of the CCCS in all areas of the curriculum. Students will benefit from teacher/support staff continued and ongoing professional development activities in the CCCSS, project based instruction, and technology integration along with teacher collaboration and grade level themed unit development. Average student scores as measured by publisher and district benchmark assessments will increase by a minimum of 5% overall in reading/language arts and math. The number of students achieving in the proficient range will increase by 5% on District-wide benchmark assessments in ELA and Math Students will directly benefit from parent understanding of CCCSS and ability to provide support at home. A full and complete instructional program is offered (Ed Codes 51210 & 51220); All teachers will be classified as Highly Qualified Teachers (HQTs); Teacher evaluations will demonstrate progress toward proficiency in Challenge 21 standards, implementation of the CCCSS, differentiation, blended learning and technology integration.
Actual Annual
Measurable Outcomes:
All students had access to CCCSS aligned materials, related support/enrichment materials, and digital curriculum, which included home/school support activities designed to improve skills, raise depth of knowledge and overall understanding of the CCCS in all areas of the curriculum. All staff participated in Common Core staff development related to implementation and assessment. Schoology implementation, Google Docs implementation and iPads in the classroom. In addition, grade levels across the district met to receive grade specific common core assessment strategies in LA and math, and to develop common trimester assessments. The transition into Common Core Assessment tools and CAASPP formative assessments did not allow us to make an accurate and/or reliable measurement of academic growth, so these desired outcomes will be continued. Students whose parent's participated in the district and school site parent education evenings benefited from parent understanding of CCCSS and ability to provide support at home. A full and complete instructional program was offered (Ed Codes 51210 & 51220); All but two teachers were classified as HQT ad those were not due to out of state credentials and the need to complete BTSA. Teacher observations and evaluations target teacher specific goals relating to Challenge 21 standards, implementation of the CCCSS, differentiation, blended learning and technology integration.

Expected Annual
Measurable Outcomes:
Student achievement will be enhanced and the number of students scoring at proficient or advanced will increase by 5% at each grade level as measured by benchmark assessments including the sub groups as a result of uniquely designed, instruction including project based and blended learning. Student scores will increase by a least one grade level as measured by STAR Reading/Math. There will be a wider variety of opportunities for student enrichment, practice and remediation and access to high interest enrichment areas/exploratory activities that are in line with the CCCSS, 21st Century Skills and Challenge 21 Standards. Students will benefit from smaller staff student ratios for remediation/enrichment. Students will benefit from the incorporation of instrumental music for 4th-8th grades and classroom music as a part of the TK-5 core program to ensure student access to Visual and Performing Arts. The middle grade (6-8) exploratory classes will be enhanced to include VAPA skills and maintain a foreign language of choice. K-3 students will benefit from the introduction of Sombrero Time (Spanish Language) into the the classrooms taught by a specially trained certificated teacher. GATE identified students, El students, and students with special needs will receive and benefit from instruction that is differentiated, as appropriate to meet their needs.

Students taking the STAR reading assessment showed an average increase of one grade level beginning in grade 3. The Star math was not given. Remediation classes were set up to do reteaching and targeted intervention for 6 week periods. Time was scheduled during the school day for flexible groupings at each grade level to do reteaching or pre teaching and enrichment. Middle grades used Rosetta stone and the use of an Art docent assisted with the integration of the arts into the curriculum. Sombrero time was offered in grades K-4. Teachers received training in common core implementation and differentiation though the use of project-based learning and technology integration. Some teachers received training in blended learning. 100 % of the students exiting 8th grade are promoting to high school. Students have benefited from the training staff has received in Schoology, Google Docs, implementation of web-based programs, and project-based instruction, along with the collaboration of all district staff in grade level groups to design common core instructional units and assessments. Parents have benefited from the staff and student use of Schoology based upon data from the parent survey. Tutoring sessions were not implemented and this action needs to be continued. For the 2015-16 LCAP, actions in this goal will be
Page 68 of 99
Students will directly benefit from teacher/support staff participation in professional development and systematically designed training and support in technology integration, differentiated instruction, blended learning, project based instruction and CCCSS grade level subject matter implementation. Parents and students will benefit from tutorial supports and parent education opportunities in CCCSS implementation, blended learning, and technology integration along with presentations relating to the special needs of GATE and/or students with special needs. All students exiting from Middle School (8th grade) will be eligible for graduation and promotion to high school.

What changes in actions, services, and expenditures will be made as a result of reviewing past progress and/or changes to goals?
The Foster Youth action needs to continue as a constant action. More staff development is needed to completely implement differentiation through project based instruction and the CCCSS. More opportunities need to be planned for parent education. The EL Master plan needs to be completed. Instructional coaches are still needed to support the classroom teachers. The parent survey indicated that students meeting or exceeding expectations need more opportunities for enrichment. The staff survey indicated a need to continue their training in technology integration. Spanish will be increased to be inclusive of the 5th grade. Coding as noted above needs to be taught as a part of technology skills. STEM instruction needs to be embedded into the science and math content areas.

All students experienced faster, more reliable connections to and through the NESD or school site network via a variety of instructional devices. the number of devices was increased to accommodate 1-1 tablets in 3-6th grades Technology access and devices were kept in good repair thorough the addition of IT/Technology personnel . This impacted the quality of learning, achievement and depth of curricular knowledge, skills and understanding. This enhanced the ability of teachers to provide quality instruction while implementing the goals of the NESD technology plan, 21st Century skills and Challenge 21 standards. All students had universal access to a broad course of study. Teachers received training in the use of the devices and implementation of 21st Century skills. Student scores on web-based District assessments did not show an increase as two different measures were used in the transition to the CAASPP formative and summative assessments and a uniform District tool. This goal and actions will be continued. All students had increased comfort level and success with digital assessments via the website including Smarter Balance and pilot District benchmark assessments. Students completed the CAASPP assessments in the time allotted. All teachers demonstrated progress toward proficiency in technology use and technology integration within the CCCS as evidenced by classroom observations and teacher evaluations.

Expected Annual
Measurable Outcomes:
Students will benefit directly through their enhanced access and participation in wellness activities at each school site, and by receiving and benefiting in enhanced instruction in the areas of nutrition, physical education and social emotional health, character education and anti-bullying programs. Students at NES/NCS will benefit from a quality breakfast and lunch program focused on meeting the nutritional goals that are aligned with the district Wellness Policy ensuring that quality entrees and fresh fruits/vegetables are available daily. Students will demonstrate strong resiliency in making appropriate decisions through quality instruction in the above areas. Students will benefit and demonstrate their strong and positive connectivity to their schools through surveys conducted annually. Student attendance rates will increase by at least 1% as a result of high quality instruction, opportunities for learning and success, celebrations of student successes, feelings of safety and the feeling of connectivity at each school site. Students will benefit from the staff training and use of all available resources and support services to ensure that students are registered as quickly as possible, enhancing immediate enrollment. Foster Youth will continue to be immediately enrolled, District -wide. Students will experience greater levels of engagement and safety on school campuses as a result of unique programs at each school site designed to serve their needs.
Actual Annual
Measurable Outcomes:
Students benefited from a focus on health and wellness at all grade levels using The Health Teacher, getting healthy choices during lunch and breakfast, receiving daily PE and in classroom stretching activities (Go Noodle), and 2nd Steps for anti bullying activities. Positive character was recognized each month through special assemblies. An anti bullying assembly was held and discussions in classrooms were held, but more work is needed in this areas based upon student surveys. A breakfast program was instituted this year and participation rates have grown. Both breakfast and lunch have quality entrees with fresh fruits and vegetables available daily.This will continue to be an area of focus. A student survey done in March indicates that not all students feel connected or safe. This is an area that needs more focus. Student attendance rates did not increase, but did not go down. This desired outcome will be continued. There was a .006% chronic absentee rate for 2014-15. All admissions staff were trained in policies and procedures for registration of Foster Youth. No Foster Youth applied for entrance to date. Parent and student surveys reported a higher level of engagement and feelings of safety but this desired outcome will be continued as the student survey reported concerns regarding feeling connected to their classroom teacher and a concern about bullying.

Section 3: Use of Supplemental and Concentration Grant funds and Proportionality A. In the box below, identify the amount of funds in the LCAP year calculated on the basis of the number and concentration of low income, foster youth, and English learner
pupils as determined pursuant to 5 CCR 15496(a)(5).
Describe how the LEA is expending these funds in the LCAP year. Include a description of, and justification for, the use of any funds in a district-‐wide, school-‐wide, countywide, or charter-‐wide manner as specified in 5 CCR 15496. For school districts with below 55 percent of enrollment of unduplicated pupils in the district or below 40 percent of enrollment of unduplicated pupils at a school site in the LCAP year, when using supplemental and concentration funds in a district-‐wide or school-‐wide manner, the school district must additionally describe how the services provided are the most effective use of funds to meet the district’s goals for unduplicated pupils in the state and any local priority areas. (See 5 CCR 15496(b) for guidance.)
Total amount of Supplemental and Concentration grant funds calculated: $64587 Newcastle Elementary School District is committed to the Vision and Core Values/belief it has set for students, staff and community. Although there is no District wide use of supplemental funds, this LCAP provides a program for all students which supports being college and career ready by the time they exit from 8th grade. In order to ensure that all English learners, low income students and Foster Youth are provided with opportunities before school, during school and after school and after the school year to receive support and assistance to achieve at high levels, school site supports and services have been designed through the three-‐year LCAP. These services include additional designated certificated staff to fully support an English language acquisition/development curriculum for English language learners, increased classified staff to provide reduced class sizes for designated and targeted instruction, after school tutorial, opportunities for full parental involvement and training, and access to technological resources and connectivity to the network for EL and low income families both at home and at school. Students are supported by additional counselor time, to work in support of the classroom learning and connectedness to school to enhance student learning. Funds for personnel, instructional materials, technological supplies, equipment and resources have been specifically included in the LCAP and designated to support the English Language learner, low income student or Foster Youth. For the 2014-‐15 year $50,935 was spent on unduplicated pupils over and above services for all pupils at the time of this LCAP adoption which was more than $10,00 in excess of what was designated as supplemental funding. In 15-‐16 that amount will be increased to $86,512, for an increase far exceeding the required 6.08% minimum proportionality % increase required to $64587. B. In the box below, identify the percentage by which services for unduplicated pupils must be increased or improved as compared to the services provided to all pupils in the
LCAP year as calculated pursuant to 5 CCR 15496(a).
Consistent with the requirements of 5 CCR 15496, demonstrate how the services provided in the LCAP year for low income pupils, foster youth, and English learners provide for increased or improved services for these pupils in proportion to the increase in funding provided for such pupils in that year as calculated pursuant to 5 CCR 15496(a)(7). An LEA shall describe how the proportionality percentage is met using a quantitative and/or qualitative description of the increased and/or improved services for unduplicated pupils as compared to the services provided to all pupils.
6.08 %

The Newcastle Elementary School District will continue to offer, ELD instruction via a certificated teacher with a BCLAD credential. Time will be increased for these support services. In the past students were served in their regular programs via pull out work one to two times a week. This enhanced program, delivered by a highly trained certificated staff member and supported with additional classified classroom support staff on a daily basis, supports the students at a high level. In addition, the designation for 2015-‐16, of a Common Core Coordinator along with a site level technology mentor and differentiation coach, under the title of Director of Educational Service/Technology Integration/Staff Development will support the efforts of staff, students and families to ensure that students receive the supports necessary for success. This District will be offering increased before and after school opportunities to support student achievement and has been designed with parent input through surveys and meetings. In addition, the District will offer opportunities for Low income, EL and Foster Youth to participate in 21st Century and Career/Tech Ed. enrichment activities after school and receive targeted academic tutorials. These will continue to be refined through the LCAP revision process. Digital Summer school offerings are expanding, with digital tools and connectivity provided for the first time, as needed to identified students. A variety of interactive digital resources will be provided for the first time to support the individual needs of the EL, Foster Youth or Low Income students in achieving the Common Core and 21st Century Skills requirements. For Foster Youth, Low income, and EL students, school counselor time has been specifically increased and targeted as a service to serve these students' unique needs. These increases for expenditures of unduplicated pupil expenditures above what is on services for all students is equal to $86,512 which far exceeds the required 6.08% of $64587. In year 2016-‐17 and 2017-‐18 there are increases to services and resources before, during and after school and at home and therefore increases for expenditures to $95,600 for unduplicated student count by 2017/18.
