Kaizen Education Foundation dba Maya 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.
Setaside funds will be used to provide interventions during the school day for general education students with highest priority 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. Students with disabilities will also receive extra interventions from a SPED parapro. Moreover, all students will be offered summer enrichment classes with highest priority 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. Finally social emotional support will be provided by our school counselor and social worker who are funded with funds; in addition teachers and staff will implement ESSER-funded Thrively software for additional SEL supports.
