SCUSD’s 2019 California School Dashboard results released
On Thursday, December 12th, the California Department of Education publicly released the 2019 California School Dashboard performance metrics for all schools.
Overall, Sacramento City Unified’s 2019 Dashboard results highlight positive change in Suspension Rate and English Language Arts performance. These improvements led to a shift from ‘Orange’ to ‘Yellow’ in both areas. We also saw improvements in other areas, and although it was minor growth, Sac City Unified is moving in the right direction. Click on the links below to see the results:
Sacramento City Unified School District Dashboard Results
Individual Schools’ Dashboard Results
The California School Dashboard provides parents and educators with meaningful information on school and district progress so they can participate in decisions to improve student learning.
In Sacramento City Unified School District, various Dashboard
performance indicators help parents/guardians monitor the
district and their school’s progress on the following:
Chronic Absenteeism – Percent of K-8 students
who miss 10% or more of the instructional days that they are
enrolled to attend (minimum of 31 days enrollment). Includes
all absences and out-of-school suspensions.
Suspension Rate – Percent of students who were
suspended during the school year.
Graduation Rate – Combined 4-5 year graduation
rate includes percent of students in a 4-year cohort who graduate
plus any 5th-year graduates from the prior group.
College/Career Readiness – Percent of graduates
who are deemed ‘prepared’ for college/career. Students can
demonstrate preparedness through various combinations of testing
(IB, AP, SBAC), course work (CTE, college courses, A-G,
leadership/military science), and/or the State Seal of
Biliteracy.
English Language Arts – Average distance from
the ‘Standard Met’ performance level on the state English
Language Arts assessment.
Mathematics – Average distance from the
‘Standard Met’ performance level on the state Math assessment.
The public can assess a school’s performance on each Dashboard
indicator using a color-coded system that displays performance
based on current data on each measure and improvement or lack of
improvement from prior year results.

determined in the Dashboard and what those colors mean.
