The experiences of students, teachers and parents in OUSD will allow students to:1. Become enthusiastic and passionate learners who are resilient, confident and self
directed; able to set and achieve personal goals2. Know and be able to do the challenging intellectual work demanded by college,
employment, civic participation and community membership3. Know and respect themselves, other people, and the environment--able to lead
healthy lives and thrive4. Become global citizens who exhibit cultural competence, personal responsibility and
empathy; who form strong relationships inside and outside of their own group5. Make informed choices about their current and future lives and what is meaningful for
them as human beings6. Successfully accomplish the standards for graduation and pursuit of higher education
– By the beginning of Kindergarten: All students reading- and math-ready– By the end of 2nd Grade: All students master essential grade-level reading and math
standards– By the end of 5th Grade: All students master essential grade-level standards in language
arts and math– By the end of 8th Grade: All students master essential grade-level standards in language
arts and algebra– By the end of 12th Grade: All students graduate prepared for college
Student outcome standards focus the planning
Our students will be caring, competent, critical thinkers with 21st century literacy, numeracy and civic participation

At all grade levels, Spring 2005 achievement surpassed Spring 2004. But the data (particularly in math) make a “wishbone” shape built by the tendency as the grade level increases for fewer students to score advanced or proficient and for more students to score FBB-BB.

MAAP Design Process: Analysis of Baseline Data
The majority of subgroups within OUSD are achieving at proficiency levels of less than 30%
• Most parents and students believe that parents and teachers maintain high expectations for students
YET
• 56% of parents of high school students believe school is preparing their children for college.
AND
• 29% of 2005 graduates (545 of 1909) fulfilled the A-G college readiness requirements*.

Common Themes that Emerged
MAAP Design Process: Research and High Performing OUSD Schools
• High expectations for all students
• Frequent monitoring of student data
• Planning and alignment of instructional strategies
• Collaborative professional development
• Use of a standards based curriculum

Primary MAAP Aspiration: Acceleration of Student Mastery
We will accelerate mastery of essential core concepts and skills for all students through the pre-K to 12th grade continuum
Key Indicators• By the beginning of Kindergarten: All students reading- and math-ready• By the end of 2nd Grade: All students master essential grade-level reading
and math standards• By the end of 5th Grade: All students master essential grade-level standards
in language arts and math• By the end of 8th Grade: All students master essential grade-level standards
in language arts and algebra• By the end of 12th Grade: All students graduate prepared for college
Student Outcome Standard: Successfully accomplish the standards for graduation and pursuit of higher education
Primary MAAP Aspiration
Page 14
1. Oakland Unified School District will achieve accelerated growth* on the API (Academic Performance Index) and will score at the projected state average for large districts by 2011
2. Each school will achieve accelerated growth on the API between 2006 and 2011*
3. Each student will achieve significant annual gain on the math and English-language arts CST, signifying accelerated mastery of core concepts and skills**
4. Achievement will accelerate for students of all sub-groups until no equity gaps exist related to race, culture, language, socio-economic status, or other social factors
Primary MAAP Aspiration: Academic Goals
* The target for acceleration is to continue the growth rate achieved districtwide and by 25 OUSD schools from 2004 to 2005. This rate was 165% of the average growth on the API achieved by unified school districts statewide.
** An annual target will be set for each student using districtwide data for each grade level, subject area, and starting score (the higher the initial score, the harder it is to grow the same number of points).
Page 15
Why the API?
• Captures performance on both the CST (measures grade level mastery) and CAHSEE (measures basic literacy; gateway for graduation)
• Prioritizes math and language arts; also includes science and social studies
• Recognizes gains made by ALL STUDENTS AT EVERY LEVEL on the CST (in other words, schools are rewarded from moving students from far below basic to below basic as well as from basic to proficient)
• Provides a basis for measurable comparison across schools and districts
Why a targetof 165%“predicted” APIgrowth and why 2011?
• Appropriate stretch target: In 2004-2005, 25 schools met this mark and OUSD was within 2 API points
• By this pathway we achieve the projected state average large district API by 2011
• Sets the stage for the next ramp-up of expectations in 2012 to achieve state and federal targets for 2014 and beyond
Why steadygain for each student?
• Steady and/or accelerated gain for each and every student is the key to achieving our vision of ensuring ALL students are college-ready by the end of high school

The API for African American students, the lowest performing subgroup at Roosevelt, is currently 70 points lower than the overall school’s API. Assuming accelerated growth for all subgroups, that gap will be cut nearly in half (38 points) by 2011.

2006-2007 Key Initiatives
Single Site Planning & Improvement Process
Tiered Support & Intervention Model
Single Site Planning & Improvement Process: Two Parallel Tracks of Work 2006-2007
Design of new site planning approach for 2007-2008: The School Plan for Student Success (SPSS)
• Organized around district and school vision and outcome standards
• Web-based planning tool
• On-line integration with data mart to strengthen data-based goal-setting, planning, and assessment of progress
• On-line integration with results-based budgeting to strengthen alignment of resources with goals and priorities
• Shift toward stakeholder/team engagement with continuous data-driven inquiry and improvement and away from a compliance-centered paradigm
Data-driven inquiry, planning, and decision-making 2006-2007: Team-centered cycles of inquiry
• Team-targeted resources and support for results-based inquiry throughout 2006-2007 to achieve the goals of the site plan
• Customized, timely data reports• Aligned inquiry guides with each
data report• Training for instructional leaders
• Teams include:• Student-parent-teacher• Teacher teams• School Site Councils/School
Leadership Teams• Networks of Schools/Principals• Education Leadership Organization• Strategy Group• Board of Education
DISTRICT LEADERS:The Board of Education,Strategy Group, and Education LeadershipOrganization (ELO)Inquiry ForumsStructured Inquiry atLeadership and BoardMeetings
SCHOOL LEADERSHIP:Principal, School Site Council, Leadership TeamStructured inquiry at Network Meetings (Principals) andSSC/Site Planning Meetings
TEACHER TEAMS:Grade level and subject area teamsGrade-Level Academic Conference (GLAC)
LEARNING TEAM:Team of individual student,parent(s), and teacher(s)Student-Parent-Teacher Conferences
Data and accompanying inquiry protocols are provided periodically to each team as part of the ongoing site planning and improvement process, in conjunction withtraining and coaching geared toward each type of team.
All teams look at the same types of data and use the same guiding questions, but with different filters and reporting formats depending on roles and responsibilities.

Oakland Acceleration Schools:Increased Support and oversight
Page 23
Critical Support for Key Initiatives: High Quality Comprehensive Standards Based Curriculum & Aligned Assessments
Development of a high quality comprehensive standards based curriculum and aligned assessments
• First Step: Curriculum and Assessment Audit – In progress
• Next step: redesign course scopes and sequences/pacing guides to focus on a narrowed set of essential standards
Effective School Site Plans will require articulation of how the most essential standards at each grade level and in each subject will be taught
Tiered Support & Intervention will require access to curriculum that addresses the most essential standards at each grade level and assessments that are aligned to monitor progress
