California's accountability system diminishes the urgency to address numerous educational needs of English Learners (ELs) and undermines the equity intent of LCFF. This session will review how the Accountability Dashboard indicators are ignoring and masking the academic and language development needs of ELs. The findings and recommendations of a new report, Masking the Focus on English Learners: The Consequences of California’s Accountability System Dashboard Results on Year 4 Local Control Accountability and Plans, will be distributed to everyone.
