Central Union High School serves a high minority, high poverty student population and has earned a “similar schools ranking” of 10 (on a 10-point scale) on the California Academic Performance Index (API) and recognition as a 2007 California Distinguished School. Central Union is beating the odds and demonstrating success with its students. In this interactive presentation, school and district leaders interested in learning about innovative uses of data to direct instruction and meet students’ needs will learn from principal Emma Jones. Jones will share how Central Union has improved instructional practice through a system and culture that incorporate routine formal and informal classroom observations, analysis of instructional techniques, and feedback on teacher practices. Topics will include Central Union’s focus on collaboration — both between the district and school and among school staff and administrators — to support instructional practices that boost student achievement. This webinar is presented by the American Institutes for Research and WestEd as partners in the California Comprehensive Center to highlight high-performing schools making a difference in student achievement.
