TRANSCRIPT
The ChallengeWe must realize that the system is the cause of weak execution due to lack of clarity, commitment, collaboration and accountability resulting from the whirlwind.
Whirlwind: urgent activities of daily work that act on youStrategic Focus: important and new activities that you act on
Change efforts most often fail when approached through a stroke-of-the-pen strategy versus a behavior change strategy.
Is LCAP perceived as a compliance activity or a capacity building process?
The ChallengeA strategic focus increases performance in areas most critical for current and future success of our school district.
Creates clarity to guide actionsPromotes commitment of individualsFosters collaboration across the organizationMeasures impact for accountability
Ask the following questions to assess your LCAP strategic focus:
1. Does every stakeholder have a clear understanding of the LCAP?
2. Can every stakeholder explain how the LCAP impacts our collective actions?
The key to closing student achievement gaps is leading with a strategic focus

Systems Leadership
Our mission is to ensure all students graduate high school prepared to successfully enter higher education and/or pursue a viable career path.
We believe that:1. Parents, staff and community members should support all students with
attaining academic goals and career aspirations.2. All students should be provided a clean, safe and inviting learning
environment.
We will accomplish this by:3. Setting priorities at each grade level aligned with CCSS via formative
assessments, proven instructional strategies and targeted interventions.4. Developing partnerships with parents, community members, businesses and
educators that support student academic goals and career aspirations.
To achieve these outcomes we commit to…
Aligning action steps with LCAP outcomes to strategically allocate support and resources
Strategic FocusA clear vision with compelling outcomes fosters a culture of collaboration, commitment and accountability.
Purpose: We believe that…
Goals: What matters most is…
Outcomes: We define success as…
We must recognize that ACTIONS will never cease to change.

Defining Outcomes that Matter
Lag Metrics define outcomes. Lead Metrics define actions.
Determine if your “Metrics Matter” by asking three questions…
1. Can the outcome inform action planning?
2. Is the outcome able to be influenced?
3. Will the outcome significantly impact the goal(s)?

Systems Leadership
Culture of Accountability
Establishing a culture of accountability requires that leaders establish processes that promote a “plan-do-study-act” dialog.
Three steps are essential for such a process:
1. Each division/department and school creates an Action Plan. Clarifies actions and defines lead metrics
2. Each engages in weekly to monthly Team Check-Ins. Adjusts actions to improve impact
3. Each conducts a Quarterly Review of progress. Refines action plan by discussing successes and barriers

LCAP is intended to actively engage all community stakeholders in working collectively toward closing student achievement gaps.
Employ an engagement process to create a culture of continuous improvement for building school district capacity.
1. Develop a common language for communicating the LCAP.
2. Actively engage in supporting LCAP implementation.
3. Collectively assess progress of LCAP outcomes.
4. Collaboratively improve the LCAP to attain goals and outcomes.
