2025-26 Funds in Action

As part of our commitment to the Community Schools model, we hosted two Family Math Nights on September 11, 2025 and January 22, 2026. These events are designed to support all TK–5th grade students and their families as they engage with our new Eureka Math curriculum.

Aligned Community Schools Pillars

• Expanded & Enriched Learning Time and Opportunities
  These evening events extend learning beyond the school day, providing hands-on, engaging math experiences for students and families together.

• Access to Broad, Challenging, and Accelerated Learning
  Activities are designed to support high expectations for all students while helping families better understand grade-level math concepts and strategies.

• Family and Community Engagement
  Family Math Nights strengthen the connection between school and home by equipping families with tools and strategies to support math learning, fostering a highly regarded neighborhood school community.

Purpose and Impact

With a district-wide focus on mathematics and a school-wide emphasis on differentiating math instruction, these events will help families become familiar with instructional approaches used in the classroom. Teachers will lead interactive stations where students and parents can explore math concepts together in a fun and supportive environment.

Recent data shows growth in math achievement, with 27.32% of students meeting proficiency on the 2024–25 CAASPP, an increase from 23.5% the previous year. Family Math Nights are an important strategy to continue this upward trend by strengthening home-school alignment in math learning.

Use of Funds

Funding will support:

• Teacher compensation for planning and facilitating the events

• Materials for interactive math stations, including cardstock, colored paper, whiteboards, markers, and other hands-on supplies

Measuring Success

• Attendance will be tracked through event sign-ins

• Workshop participation will be monitored by the site coordinator

• Student achievement data will be measured through CAASPP results (May 2026), available via the California Dashboard and district data systems

To ensure access to broad, challenging, and accelerated learning with high expectations for all students, our school is investing in targeted professional development for teachers. Funding from this Fund Request will provide a visiting teacher for three days for each of our 3 new teachers in Kindergarten, 1st grade, and 3rd grade for training and coaching on September 11, October 2, and October 9, 2025.

This support strengthens high-quality instruction and intervention practices that benefit all students in Kindergarten through 5th grade, both this year and in the years to come. Student progress will be closely monitored using district assessments, including mCLASS (K–2), i-Ready (3rd grade), and ELA CAASPP results, ensuring that instruction is responsive and aligned to student needs.
