    Closing the Achivement Gap for Latino Students and English Learners

    TSS and ACSA presented this one-day session on Tuesday, March 27, 2012 at Radisson Hotel in Fresno, California.

    This conference was the third in our “closing the achievement gap” series for African American, Latino and English Learner, and Special Education students. Teachers, principals, and district office administrators from elementary, middle, and high schools, where Latino students and Spanish-speaking English learners are meeting their AYP or Safe Harbor targets, present their underlying values and goals, and the specific strategies they implemented to accomplish such impressive results. The conference was deemed helpful and was a big success. Stay tuned for other Achievement Gap workshops later this year.


    Common Core Standards

    Total School Solutions (TSS) has been sharing their knowledge on the Common Core standards as TSS Senior Consultant Kathy Clements has been presenting at these half day workshops, explaining how to make the necessary transition from the current California standards to the Common Core standards without losing all the work that has already been done and with causing a negative impact on student achievement. Individuals who attended discovered the ‘Learning Progression Chart’® that outlines a student’s view of the ELA path and displays all CST, CMA, CAPA, HSEE, EAP/EPT testing blueprint information in a format that’s easy to follow.

    Common Core workshops on implementation to follow in Fall 2012!
