Directions: This section summarizes program accountability requirements unique to the district/consortium based upon federal and state accountability measures. Historically, this report has included information from the District Performance Framework; because of the state assessment transition and passage of HB15-1323, 2015 DPFs will not be created. In the table below, CDE has pre-populated the district/consortium’s data in blue text. This data shows the district/consortium’s performance in meeting minimum federal and state accountability program expectations.

For required elements in the improvement plan, go to the Quality Criteria at: . January 15, 2016 (Districts on Priority Improvement or Turnaround) The district UIP is due to CDE for review on January 15, 2016 through Tracker or the UIP online system. April 15, 2016 (All Districts) The UIP is due to CDE for public posting on April 15, 2016 through Tracker or the UIP online system. Some program level reviews will occur at this same time.

performance challenge(s). A limited number of priority performance challenges is recommended (no more than 3-5); a performance challenge may apply to multiple performance indicators. At a minimum, priority performance challenges must be identified in any of the four performance areas where minimum state and federal expectations were not met for accountability purposes. In most cases, this should just be an update to the plan from 2014 since the DPF has not changed for 2015. Finally, provide a brief description of the root cause analysis for any priority performance challenges. Root causes may apply to multiple priority performance challenges. You may add rows, as needed.
