Description

Lindsay Unified School District (LUSD) is a small, low-income, rural community with a diverse and high need study body. As part of an ambitious reform strategy, LUSD developed a Performance Based System (PBS) that focuses on personalized, student-centered learning that prepares each child academically, socially, and emotionally. Districts around the country are seeking out successful school and system level approaches to personalized models that show promise for supporting the learning needs of all students. Recognizing this need, LUSD established the Lindsay Leads initiative to lift up LUSD’s work so that other schools/districts/educational entities can adapt and employ their strategies. Specifically, this grant will enable Lindsay Leads to build the capacity of their team to engage in this partnership work and support the initial cohort of three to five transformation partnerships through the 2018-2019 school year.
