The effectiveness of this action will be monitored through metrics such as student participation rates in school activities and events, changes in student perceptions of school climate and connectedness, and feedback from students, families, and staff (3.11). Tracking student participation rates in activities and events tailored to their cultural backgrounds will provide insight into the reach and engagement of these initiatives across the district. Additionally, administering surveys to students to assess their perceptions of school climate and connectedness will enable us to measure changes in their sense of belonging and connection over time. Furthermore, gathering feedback from students, families, and staff on their experiences with inclusive school-wide events and activities will provide valuable insights into the impact of these initiatives on fostering school connectedness and promoting a positive school culture. By collecting and analyzing these metrics, we can ensure that efforts to increase school connectedness effectively address the identified needs of underserved student populations and contribute to their overall well-being and academic success within our district.
