Districts on the Right Track: Napa Valley Unified School District

Over the last three years, Napa Valley Unified School District has revamped its school support model -- resulting in a 25-point gain on California’s Academic Performance Index (API) district-wide and growth in more than 90 percent of district schools. In this interactive presentation, district leaders interested in supporting schools in program improvement will learn from Elena Toscano, Assistant Superintendent of Instruction, about her district’s innovative support model. Topics will include Napa’s focus on establishing a clear vision, their action plan to build collaboration, and their expanded role in continuous improvement efforts. This Online Event is sponsored by the California Comprehensive Center and is a follow-up presentation to the On the Right Track 4 Symposium, which highlighted California Program Improvement schools and districts making a difference in student achievement.
