Kaizen Education Foundation dba Skyview High School

The LEA will utilize the 20% set-aside to target practices and interventions that address the learning loss experienced by subgroups most impacted by COVID-19 (those that qualify as low-income, students of color, English learners, children with disabilities, students experiencing homelessness, children in foster care, and migratory students); due to the socio-economic status of the school population, all students may benefit from these targeted practices. The remaining funds will be used to provide additional services that allow for enhanced learning opportunities, space and technology for social distance, and other items which will enable the school to remain open after the initial shutdowns from the crisis.

Due to the demographics of the LEA, set aside funds will be used to provide summer enrichment to all students; highest priority will be given to students who have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 such as low-income families, students of all races and genders, children with disabilities, English learners, migratory students, students experiencing homelessness, and children and youth in foster care. Moreover, academic and social emotional support will be provided by the Academic/SEL paraprofessional; again, services will be provided to all students, but highest priority will be given to students who have been disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 such as low-income families, students of all races and genders, children with disabilities, English learners, migratory students, students experiencing homelessness, and children and youth in foster care. In addition software will be provided for students with disabilities (iReady) and English Learners (Edge).

Remaining funds will be used for software and curricula to address learning loss in science, social studies, ELA, and math. Teaching staff will be supported with an instructional support specialist and data specialist in order to improve educator effectiveness. A marketing campaign will be funded to re-enroll students and staff that did not return after COVID closures. Technology-enhanced learning will be available safely on campus via the purchase of a firewall.
