Objectives
Address Educational Needs
All consortium members will continue to hire teachers to meet student needs in basic skills, literacy, English, and career technical education. Consortium members will continue to advertise classes in a variety of ways to encourage students who left during the COVID pandemic to return. Members will continue to follow district, college, and health department guidance in reopening schools. Members will continue to explore the best combination of in person instruction, distance learning, and hybrid classes to meet the needs of our students. Professional development will continue to support certificated and classified staff to understand and respond to accountability metrics and reporting requirements. Job alike meetings will continue to provide opportunities for classified and certificated staff to share best practices across the consortium. Members will work with WIOA I partners to develop additional career technical training opportunities to meet workforce needs within the parameters of available funding and staffing. Meetings with the WIOA I agencies are held regularly.
Improve Integration of Services & Transitions
Our counselors are working on a process to share student information and hand off adult school students to the college counselor. Online conferencing technology makes these handoffs more personal and dynamic as all members can meet so the adult school counselor can introduce the student and then exit the meeting. Additionally, consortium members openly discuss where our program offerings are similar and where they are different. Over the next three years, we plan to identify career pathways that include offerings at more than one school and develop a plan to share this information with students across our agencies. For example, multiple members offer certified nursing assistant or home health aide classes but only one adult school has an LVN program and our college partner offers a BSN in nursing. This is something all of our consortium students need to know. We also need to improve the identification of students with low literacy when they come to CTE programs across the consortium and establish a process for these students to complete their HSD/HSE at one of the adult schools either concurrent with their CTE classes or prior to enrolling in the CTE program based on literacy requirements of some of our CTE pathways.
Improve Effectiveness of Services
The RHRAEC will continue to hold annual data meetings to review student data from all member agencies. The consortium will review and revise the RHRAEC Memorandum of Understanding to ensure that member effectiveness is addressed according to all state recommendations. New agency representatives will continue to be onboarded by the consortium lead and mentored by other members. We are fortunate in that the RHRAEC consortium is high functioning and has become a Professional Learning Community where best practices are shared by teachers, counselors, and classified staff through our alike meetings in addition to the administrators’ monthly sharing of best practices during the round table section of all consortium meetings.
We will continue to hold the job alike meetings for teachers, counselors, and classified staff. We will continue our annual data meeting that includes the assessment technicians and classified staff that work hands on with our data daily. Best practices will be shared at these meetings.
Activities & Outcomes
Job Alike Meetings
Objective that Applies to this Activity
Improve Integration of Services & Transitions
Annual job alike meetings will be held in person or online. All five consortium member agencies will assist in planning and implementing these meetings. Meetings will be held on a day and time that most teachers and classified staff can attend without disrupting the school day. Typically, these meetings are held on Fridays. Job alike groups have been defined as: ESL staff, ASE/ABE staff, CTE staff, counselors, data technicians, and classified office staff. During our planning meeting, each consortium member representative selects a group to facilitate, with the consortium lead taking one as well. The agency representatives are responsible for creating a flyer to advertise their session which is shared with all agencies to disseminate to staff. Office managers provide sign-in sheets for each group and then are responsible for notifying each agency of their attendees. Logistical concerns are addressed in the planning meeting with responsibilities assigned to various agency representatives for securing a location, ordering food, creating the evaluation form, and so on. Key deliverables for these meetings are sign-in sheets to assess what degree of participation each agency, and the consortium as a whole, attained at the event and post-event evaluations which are tabulated and discussed at the next regularly scheduled consortium meeting.
The alike meetings are increasingly valuable as all agencies strive to address the educational needs of our students during a time of unprecedented staff turnover. It is extremely valuable to offer our staff a professional learning community where they can connect with others who teach their same subject. Many of our teachers are the only teacher of a specific class at their agency. Evaluations from past job alike meetings indicated that this was the most beneficial consortium activity for our staff. Counselors reported feeling better about handing off students to another agency once they knew the person they were handing the student off to at the next school. Teachers share best practices with one another including supplemental texts, online resources, and practical classroom management procedures. Thus, these meetings also amplify the effectiveness of our services across the consortium.
In 2022-23, one job alike meeting will be held with 50% staff attendance across all member agencies. Administrators from each agency will facilitate job alike meetings for ASE/ABE, CTE, and ESL teachers, counselors, and classified staff.
From 2023 - 2025 administrators will turn over the job alike meeting facilitation to their staff. At least 70% of all staff will attend a minimum of one job alike meeting per year.
The job alike meetings will result in quarterly PLC communication between members of at least two consortium agencies with the goal of improving professional practice in the classroom and post-secondary transitions to the community college.

Hiring and training of highly qualified staff
Objective that Applies to this Activity
Address Educational Needs
All agencies will continue to recruit, hire, and train teaching staff to meet the educational needs of students. Consortium members will support one another by sharing names of part-time teachers who are interested in additional hours with members who have vacant positions. Consortium member agencies will support the training of new staff by offering job shadowing opportunities with more experienced staff in both classified and certificated positions. Consortium members who are considering opening or closing new CTE programs will share this information at regularly scheduled consortium meetings so that other agencies looking for teachers or new programs might consider adopting the program that is closing at another agency.
In 2022-23, newly hired classified staff who work in compiling and reporting data will shadow more experienced staff at another agency as needed. New CTE teachers will be able to shadow experienced CTE teachers across the consortium
In 2023-24, newly hired classified staff who work in compiling and reporting data will shadow more experienced staff at another agency as needed. New CTE teachers will be able to shadow experienced CTE teachers across the consortium
During 2023-2055, the following will provide the outcome: teacher evaluations, positive performance outcomes, data, increase in adult student enrollment in classes, transition to college and adult students attaining jobs.

Data Meetings
Objective that Applies to this Activity
Improve Integration of Services & Transitions
Annual data meetings will be held in person. All five consortium member agencies will bring an administrator and data/ assessment staff (if available) to these meetings. Each member agency will be responsible for bringing data to share with all members of the consortium. This data must be formatted in a way that clearly demonstrates each agency’s progress in each of the mandatory metrics: student enrollment and enrollment of or services to students with low literacy. These meetings will be held during the 3rd quarter of the year based on 2nd quarter data.It shall be the responsibility of the agency’s voting members to ensure the data is ready to share at least one week prior to the meeting. Key deliverables will include how many students were enrolled by each agency during the first two quarters and how many of those students were designated completers at the end of the second quarter. For the low literacy measurement, agencies will bring data about how many students were enrolled, how many were referred to another agency in the consortium (ex. students without a high school diploma or equivalent are referred by Rio Hondo College and Tri-Cities ROP to the adult schools’ ASE programs), and how many students attained a high school diploma/equivalent during the first two quarters of the fiscal year.
In 2022-23, one data meeting will be held to discuss mandatory metrics outcomes. All consortium members will provide data to one another in a format that clearly identifies enrollments and outcomes.
Counselors will design a process for referring students whose low literacy interferes with the CTE goals. Counselors will design a process of referral from one agency to another to meet the HSD/HSE needs of these students.
Students with low literacy will be identified by all consortium members and seamlessly referred to ASE programs at the adult schools with documentation for counselor follow up across the consortium.
