In 2019-20, the California Department of Education identified Alameda Unified School District as one of many districts across the state showing “significant disproportionality.” Specifically, for three years in a row, African-American students in AUSD have been identified as children with disabilities in two different special education categories at a higher rate than their peers of other races.
On January 12, 2021 the Board of Education approved the Comprehensive Coordinated Early Intervening Services (CCEIS) Plan which was submitted to the California Department of Education (CDE) by January 15, 2021.
Tonight's presentation is a further update to the presentation made on September 14. Staff will seek the Board's approval of the 2021-22 CCEIS Plan at the December 14th Board of Education Meeting.
