2008-09 School Report Cards Scheduled for Release on January 19, 2010
The second report card for LAUSD schools is on its way.
The School Report Card team is currently meeting with stakeholder representatives to improve the layout, readability, and content of the report card. We have already received and are working with valuable feedback from organizations such as the United Way of Greater Los Angeles, the California Community Foundation, and Communities for Educational Equity. We are also working with representatives from schools, including teachers, administrators, and parents, and parent leadership organizations such as the LAUSD Parent Steering Committee and the Parent Collaborative. If you or your organization would like to be involved in this work, please contact us at any time at reportcard@lausd.net.

| What is the School Report Card?
The School Report Card is a document published each year by LAUSD that summarizes data about individual schools and is provided directly to families. It helps families understand how a school is performing in a number of key areas like graduation rates, student performance on standardized tests, English learner progress, and how well connected students, parents, and employees are with their school. This January 19, parents and guardians of elementary students can expect a School Report Card to come home from the school, while parents and guardians of middle and high school students can expect to receive one about their schools in the mailbox.

Helping Schools and Families Get Ready for the 2008-09 School Report Card
In partnership with the Parent Community Services Branch, the United Way of Greater Los Angeles, and dozens of parent organizations across the city, we are working hard to ensure that every parent in LAUSD knows the School Report Card is coming, what it looks like, and how it can help them partner with their schools. Below are links to materials you can download to assist us in realizing this goal (all documents are in English and in portable document format or pdf except where otherwise noted). Please contact the School Report Card team with any questions you have or to request materials you can’t find here.
