Background Information:
The Proposition 98 Career Technical Education Initiative (CTEI) is state funding that provides local assistance funding to contract with local educational agencies (LEA) to strengthen, expand, or support career technical education (CTE) programs, including Arts, Media, and Entertainment, regionally or statewide. Expansion and capacity building in the Arts, Media, and Entertainment (AME) Industry Sector is aligned with the State Superintendent of Public Instruction’s STEAM/Equity Initiative, which seeks to foster high quality Arts and AME instruction for all California students and builds meaningful connections between educational programs and California Industry.
Coronado Unified School District has extensive experience in developing curriculum in all four AME pathways. Coronado School of the Arts, a California Department of Education (CDE) Demonstration Site in AME education, has established a four-year, scope and sequence aligned to CTE standards in Musical Theatre, Technical Theatre, Instrumental Music, Dance, Digital Media and Filmmaking, Game Design, and Visual Art. The administrators and teachers for this program are in the vanguard of AME CTE education in the state.

Reports:
The goals and outcomes of this contract were developed in collaboration with State-level CDE administrators, input from regional AME program directors, and pathway specific industry advisors. They are aligned with the standards as outlined in the California Career Technical Education Model Curriculum Standards, revised in 2013, supported by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction. 

Project Description
The purpose of this contract is to fund California’s Annual Statewide AME Professional Development Institute and AME Industry Sector Advisory meeting. The Institute would focus on five key areas critical for keeping pace with enrollment and program expansion: (1) Leadership training for AME teachers and administrators; (2) Aligning curriculum to the new Career Technical Education Model Curriculum Standards for AME; (3) Connecting teachers to the value of Career Technical Student Organization; (4) Convening an AME Leadership Institute and Statewide AME Advisory meeting; and (5) High quality, standards aligned curriculum for all AME pathways. Project funding will provide Institute design, meeting space rentals, implementation, materials, necessary travel, technology needs, reporting, and follow-up. The Institute will be held in the county of San Diego in March 2020.

The contract continues to position the Coronado Unified School District as a state leader in AME Career Technical Education.
Financial Impact:
Coronado Unified School District will receive up to $95,000 from the California State Department of Education for September 1, 2019 to June 30, 2020 to implement this contract.  The contract is subject to the pending approval of the California General Services Administration.

Superintendent's Recommendation:

That the Board approve the Arts, Media, and Entertainment Industry Sector Leadership Project $95,000 Contract for 2019-20 as authorized by the Proposition 98 Career Technical Education Initiative (CTEI) (subject to approval of the California General Services Administration).
