A requirement of the No Child Left Behind Act included districts writing a Local Education Agency Plan (LEAP). The State of California requires school districts in Program Improvement year 3 to complete a full revision to their LEAP. The Board was provided the revisions to the Plan in reading and mathematics. It was the intention of staff to ask the Board to adopt the changes, but the state has not provided feedback on the changes. This item will have to be tabled to a later date when the state and staff have responded. Staff was following the state’s deadline of May 1 for adoption. The state does provide a $150,000 grant to implement some of the changes in the plan.
