expenditures will be made as a result of number of teachers will retire in the next few years and the number of new teachers entering the field is expected to

goals? achievement gap between all students, OUSD will use research practices that will ensure teachers and students are
successful in a 21st century learning organization of excellence. These future practices will include, but not be limited
to the following elements: 1. Ensure teacher are continuously supported and effective in their teaching practice for all
learners, 2. Provide adequate supports (e.g. planning time, textbook resources, assistance from the district office), and
3. Strong collegial support, including special education teacher and general education collaboration. In order to ensure
that future goals address actions and services that support 21st century teaching conditions: 1.) OUSD will conduct a
local, on‐going review of assessing and evaluating the conditions of learning, 2.) OUSD will focus with school leadership
on instructional quality and high‐quality teaching and learning conditions that ensure student success and 3.) OUSD
will continually assess and address any specific challenges in retentions of special education or high need area

reduction were ranked top responses. Hence, ongoing professional development for teachers and principals will take
place next year while phase two of implementing class size reduction will take place. Also, in an effort to minimize
redundancy and to establish more precise LCAP goals, goals 1, 2, and 3 were condensed to reflect new Goal 1.
