Lake Washington Academic and Student Well-Being Recovery Plan

Each public school district in Washington State is required by the state Legislature and by Congress to create and submit an Academic and Student Well-being Recovery Plan by June 1, 2021. The goal of the plan is to identify which students and student groups need additional academic and well-being supports, define how those supports will be provided, and plan for recovery and acceleration of student learning and well-being over the summer, into the fall, and beyond.  

In addition, districts are required to use an equity analysis tool in the development of the plan.

By June 1, 2021, districts must submit their plans via an online survey to the Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI). OSPI has provided a series of required questions to which districts must respond. The survey with responses to these questions is the formal plan that we submit to OSPI. Two important notes:  

  • Assessment data is used to determine which students in each of the identified groups need the supports identified in the plan. Not all students in each of these groups will necessarily receive these supports.  
  • This plan is not inclusive of all the district’s efforts to support students. Additional strategies are a part of our larger district strategic plan.   

You can find the Academic and Student Well-Being Recovery plan that Lake Washington School District will submit to the Office of Superintendent of public instruction below.

Part IV: Diagnostic Assessments

Diagnostic assessment is a particular type of formative assessment intended to help educators identify students’ specific knowledge, skills, and understanding in order to build on each student’s strengths and specific needs. Because of their domain specificity and design, diagnostic assessments can guide curriculum planning in more specific ways than most summative assessments.

Part VII: Monitoring Student Progress

  1. Describe how your LEA will consistently apply the selected equity analysis and diagnostic assessments to evaluate and monitor student progress and effectiveness of the strategies/interventions implemented to address gaps in student learning and well-being.

    For example:
    "Our district uses an equity analysis process every three months to monitor progress, adjust strategies and identify student learning gaps."

    Our district and each school will monitor progress using our diagnostic assessments at least three times per year. School and district teams will use results from these assessments to make adjustments to strategies and interventions or provide additional supports. At the district level the results are used to identify supports needed by schools. At the school level the results are used to make adjustments or provide supports at the school, classroom, or individual student level. In addition, the district and schools will use an equity analysis process each quarter to adjust strategies and identify student learning gaps.

Part VIII: Supports for Strategies/Interventions

  1. Of the strategies/interventions your LEA has implemented or is planning to implement, identify up to three in which your LEA has the knowledge, skills, and capacity to mentor another LEA.
  • MTSS
  • SEL and Mental Health Supports
  1. Of the strategies/interventions your LEA has implemented or is planning to implement, please identify up to three strategies for which your LEA needs more support.
  • High Quality Tutoring
  • Equitable Grading Practice
  • Inclusive Practices
