In a period when pandemic disruptions made it hard to collect data for statewide assessments, the California Department of Education worked with education association partners to create the CAPP Award to honor the efforts of schools and districts who designed and implemented unique opportunities and strategies to support their students.
Schools and school districts are being honored for demonstrated efforts in four target areas:
- Student Engagement
- Distribution of Technology
- Nutrition Services
- Social and Emotional Well-Being of Students
CAPP Award winners completed an online application highlighting an innovative practice in one of the four target areas that was implemented during the 2020–21 school year. It is anticipated that the CDE will transition back to the California DS Program in 2023.
