The Student Investment Account is a non-competitive grant program which, when fully implemented, represents an investment of close to $500 SSA million going directly to Oregon school districts and eligible charter schools. The purpose of the Student Investment Account is to meet students’ mental and behavioral health needs and increase academic achievement and reduce academic disparities for students of color; students with disabilities; emerging bilingual students; students navigating poverty, homelessness and foster care; and other student groups that have historically experienced academic disparities.

Requirement

The annual report consists of district responses to four questions:

What changes in behavior, actions, policies or practices have you observed related to SIA implementation during the 2022-23 school year? How do you see these changes contributing to the goals and outcomes in your SIA plan?
What barriers or challenges to SIA implementation have you experienced that are helpful for your community and/or state leaders to be aware of? What adjustments, if any, did you make to your SIA plan as a result of these challenges?
SIA implementation includes ongoing engagement with all students, focal students, families, staff, and community partners. How have relationships with or between those groups changed and/or been maintained throughout this academic year?
As you think about what guided your choices and prioritization efforts in this year of SIA implementation, what stands out? How will what you’ve learned this year impact future implementation efforts?

We continue to face challenges with hiring both licensed and classified staff.

While not unique to our district, these challenges are real and continue to force staffing adjustments.

Consistent need for additional professional learning for our staff.

With competing priorities, it is a challenge to find opportunities to schedule meaningful professional learning.

Over the past year and a half we met with students, staff, and community members through one-on-one interviews, surveys, committees, and events.

With our strategic plan, we are working to establish increased and sustainable opportunities for feedback throughout the year.

One example is using SB732 as a way of creating a cyclical and ongoing engagement strategy over time providing continuous feedback to our board and our district.

How have relationships with all students, focal students, families, staff, and community partners changed and/or been maintained throughout this academic year?

Moving forward, our plan is to continue this investment and incorporate additional funds from the Early Literacy Grant to expand our outreach to our elementary students.

With this additional funding we plan to make improvements and bring students back to grade level in reading.
