District & School Technical Support

The mission of the District and School Support program is to build and sustain the capacity necessary to improve the success of all students by partnering with districts and schools as they endeavor to implement organizational practices that:

Help all students meet standards
Increase student achievement levels of all students
Select/adopt appropriate instructional materials
Meet the needs of English language learners
Strengthen administrative leadership
Improve administrator expertise in content knowledge and pedagogy
Reduce barriers to student achievement

We do this by customizing services to meet the needs of individual schools and districts sharing information and resources about emerging issues and initiatives, collaborating with partner organizations, the Regional System of District and School Support, and institutes of higher learning to build leadership to support effective systemic change, and fostering collaborative partnerships among Solano County community groups including districts, teachers, school site administrators, parents,business and community leaders.

We provide technical assistance and organizational tools for streamlining multiple state and federal planning requirements into a single data-driven, comprehensive school plan. We are also available to guide schools and provide technical assistance and support to districts as they coordinate programs and funds from multiple federal and state sources into single,focused, fully integrated reform effort which includes:

Developing and implementing a district Local Educational Agency Plan (LEAP) and site Single Plan For Student Achievement (SPSA)
Developing and implementing effective intervention programs
Developing and implementing effective programs for English Learner students
Categorical Program Implementation and Evaluation via the Categorical Program Monitoring (CPM) process
