The Single Plan for Student Achievement (SPSA) is a plan of actions to raise the
academic performance of all students. California Education Code sections 41507,
41572, and 64001 and the federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA)
require each school to consolidate all school plans for programs funded through the
ConApp and ESEA Program Improvement into the SPSA.

Form A: Planned Improvements in Student Performance: 7th – 8th Grade Math
The School Site Council has analyzed the academic performance of all student groups and has considered the effectiveness of key
elements of the instructional program for students failing to meet academic performance index and adequate yearly progress growth
targets. As a result, it has adopted the following school goals, related actions, and expenditures to raise the academic performance of
students not yet meeting state standards:
LEA GOAL # 1: Seventh - eighth grade students grade level proficient on the SBAC math assessment will meet or exceed:
7th = 40% 8th = 55%
SCHOOL GOAL # 1: Seventh - eighth grade students grade level proficient on the SBAC math assessment will meet or exceed:
