Process

The required process for developing a SPSA ensures equitable opportunities and allocates funding in order to improve the educational experience of underserved students through the ongoing review/analysis of data as a collaborative team (school and district staff, parents and community members) to identify areas of strength, growth areas, inequities, and solutions to close gaps in order to continuously improve in our support of personal and academic achievement for all students.

Payoff
8
The SPSA serves as a school's story and provides educational partners an overview of the school's plan for continuous improvement. Under ESSA, the SPSA ensures the school is strategically developing, implementing and monitoring the plan and specific actions that support student success. Through meaningful SPSA development and implementation, every member of the school's learning community receives the "just right" support that yields growth toward the state determined long-term goals.
