District staff presented a strategic-plan check-in focused on the district’s priority of a thriving student body — highlighting sense of belonging, teacher‑student relationships, and a customized success plan for students.
Dr. Eric Khan, Director of Curricular Pathways and Postsecondary Partnerships, and colleagues explained that the district used Panorama measures and local focus groups to set baseline metrics and five‑year targets. Staff said both 'sense of belonging' and 'teacher‑student relationships' are composite measures made up of about eight to ten survey items and that certain items may carry different weights; they pledged to return with disaggregated instrument details and the specific national percentile that a 79% favorable rate would represent.
Board members sought clarification on Panorama methodology and response rates. A district Panorama lead said the survey is administered anonymously and that participation rates have historically been above 90% but not 100%. Board members asked staff to disaggregate 6–12 into separate middle- and high‑school measures and to verify whether shorter advisory periods (20–30 minutes) can realistically include academic-support components previously provided through study halls.
On advisory, staff said the program was expanded during the pandemic and the district has since tried to balance providing content and allowing building‑level autonomy. Staff noted advisory can include academic support, teacher connections, retake opportunities and experiential learning; they said advisory is intended to complement classroom instruction rather than replace it, and they will continue to refine how advisory time supports the district's goals.
District staff invited follow-up questions and said supporting materials (slides, a screencast, and a memo) are available in BoardDocs and on the district’s YouTube channel.
