8.J. Approval of CDIP Gap Objectives
Rationale

The CDIP Gap Objectives can be found below:
 
LES
  • Collaborate to increase the percentage of students with disabilities scoring P/D on the KSA reading assessment from 25% to 35% 
  • Collaborate to increase the percentage of Homeless students scoring P/D on the KSA math assessment from 42% to 52%. 
MIDDLE SCHOOL
  • Only 26% of economically disadvantaged MS students are scoring P/D on the KSA reading assessment and only 20% are scoring P/D on the KSA math assessment. Because of that, these activities are for all students. We will collaborate to increase 26% to 35% in reading and 20% to 33% in math.
