Okay, so our next round is starting with King DD versus Little Mac. 3 2 1 go. Little Mac with all three and DDD with two. Nice 30% on King BDD. 48 attempted upbe with Little Mac. Nice recovery with King BDD. Almost got the shield break. King DDD almost evening it back up. A potential stock here. And King DDD got it with 100 on him.
So um families soon to come. Um, so I really really appreciate the opportunity to run for Ashland and I really can't even imagine what it'll feel like to run through Ashland on race day. Um, having known so many people. So really appreciate it and thank you. And thank you to everyone out there in in the Ashland community and those who have supported me already because I feel like I've gotten so much support from so many different people. some names I don't even know and and there and I've donated and it's just it's so it's so uplifting to know there's so many people willing to donate. So, thank you to everyone for donating. Thank you. Thank you, Joanna. I just want to take a minute and just say thank you to you um as well for all that you've done for Ashland's children. um as a family that that uh has had a child to go through your kindergarten class, it was um just a a remarkable year for my granddaughter and uh and I thank you for I know how many families would stand right here with me and say that.
Ball gets by Sabina Mckne trying to check over to Green. Green goes by Marino. Ke Marino double teaming Green. Green over to Donald with the ball over to Green. You saw me keep stopping Northampton every time they're trying to get the ball into the middle. Grace Howard gets called with the call as Northampton will get an 8 meter shot just wide. Mary Devoy there to pick the ball up. gets the ball to Jenna Holly. Holly over to Howard. Howard over to Marino. Marino's back to Holly. Over to Rayold. Over to Witwit over to Marino. Marino bringing the ball up the field as she will get the ball over the restraining line. get the ball to Addie Jordan. Jordan looks to get the ball to Trilio. Trulio will go to the 8 meter again. Oh, Caroline. Sorry, Lucas with the ball. Not Trulio. And Caroline Lukes gets her first goal of the season.
Yes, they are here for any portion of the day. 88. Oh, okay. So, you just said the opposite of what I was thinking. So, thank you. So, moving on down the slide, um, you can see, uh, students in living in communities with higher poverty are four times more likely to be chronically absent due to reasons beyond their control. um listed up there and we'll talk more about how we tackle that a little later in the in the presentation. U attendance works is saying attendance improves when schools engage students and parents in positive ways and when schools provide mentors for chronically absent students. So, um this comes down when we talk about um engaging students. That was our ma the major focus of our tier one um instructional uh topic that we went over all year long with our secondary staffs. Um we're always trying to engage parents and you'll hear more about that um as we get into the staff that's involved in attendance.
And Little Mac with an attempted upbe. Another good upbe with King DDD. M almost got that forward smack off. King DDD playing the slow game. Waiting for Little Mac to do anything. Early stock at 50. This looks in King DDD's favor. Ooh, stock taken. It's even almost got the edge guard. Nice recovery with King DDD. Almost off the top. Good F smash. King DDD1 with one left. So now it is two games to zero with King DDD still with one life left. So the stocks are um 10 to eight. Okay. So, do they get to the They don't get to choose a new uh arena. 10 to six. 10 to Okay. They don't get to choose a new arena until we after all four go through. With our next match starting right now. Okay. Methra and Pyra. Myth. Smith. You got pirate right though. I did.
So, thank you for uh Thank you so much and great teacher of course. Thank you. It means so much to me. While I don't live in Ashland, um it feels like home. Sometimes being here feels more like home because I spend more time here than I do at home. So, um, it really it really is like a second home even though I don't actually live here, but thank you so much for that. You great. My turn. Yes, please. It's a tough act to follow. I uh I'm Tom. I live at uh 121 House Street. And I'll be brief. I uh you know um some of you know my wife. She volunteers for just about everything in town. Miss Bennett, you know all three of my kids. They've been through kids. They're Yeah, they're pretty good. Uh no, they're real good. And uh yeah, know I so I'm I sort of keep a little profile.
Peace. November three, Caroline Luke. [Applause] Marino on the draw. Addie Jordan gets the ball, comes up, brings it. She just blows by the Northampton defense. Gets to the back of the net, comes around. And something the fans have been seeing all season. Addy Jordan with another goal. Addie Jordan for her first goal in the on tonight. Her fourth fourth goal of the season. East Law Meadow up three nothing. 351 to go in the first quarter. Ken Marino on the draw again. Matt Whitler will pick it up. Blow by everybody. Set up Diesel metal offense. Over to Mana Calibris. Calibri behind the net. Ball gets through. Nice stop by Angelina Trulio or Addie Jordan. Matt Whitler almost with a pick. Addy Jordan with the ball. She should be taking it right to the house. Fires it just high over the net. as Busen picks up the ball.
Another thing triggered a thought. When we talk about what impacts positive change, you mentioned mentoring. We don't mean that the mentoring has to be just because of absences, but any mentoring contact with the student works. I like the fact that you're shaking because I think Well, I would say where my head is going is um we have an intervention that we call it check-in checkout. And basically what it is is a student who's having maybe behavioral or attendance issues is checking in with somebody at the beginning of the day. In elementary, they're checking with the same person throughout the day and then at the end. And they're really kind of making that connection. Um it's an opportunity for staff to, you know, school. Those kinds of conversations keep it very positive and that keeps the kids accountable for like we talked about today, you know, one one chico high student has drastically improved her reduced heries and increased her attendance just with I believe it was six weeks of that.
Thank you. Okay. King DDD. He has to kill himself twice and then it'll start. How are these characters ranked? Like how good they are. Mhm. King DDD is very bad. Pythra are very good. Okay. 50% to start. Now, it also matters how they're played. It doesn't matter if they're their total strength. Like a good player with a horrible character will always beat a bad player with a good character. Okay. But if it's two good characters and then one bad character and then one good character, the better one usually win. But it is a skill thing. Yes. But some characters do better against other characters. Like here, I would say Pyro still wins. Even though she's the better character, she still does a lot better. And there we see it as she takes only 50 and takes the stock. Okay, so very powerful. All right, so now the other team has one.
I kind of lurk in the background behind my family. I'm like the black sheep of the family. But um this is sort of an opportunity to to do something big and important. And that's what's um that's what it means to me. It's uh I'm just an ordinary guy with this opportunity to do something extraordinary. It's it's we're we just we're all so lucky to live in this town on the marathon route. It is. It's uh it's great. Uh you know, I've written about this, but uh you know, I'm a huge uh fan of the marathon as a spectator. I never really thought I'd run it. Um but uh I threw my hat in the ring this year and my name got pulled and I'm just so grateful. I I uh that's that's it. That's really all I had to say. And and and and pardon my appearance here.
Not booing. Green with the ball. gets the ball over to Jones. Jones over to Nassan. Loses it. Angelina Trullio gets the ball over the restraining line. One on five as she looks to pull back or not. Trulio behind the net. Over to Calibris. Calibri to Whitwar over to Marino. Over to Jordan. Jordan back to Calibris. To Marino over to Jordan. You saw Mal being patient waiting for the play to develop. Gets the ball to Mckne and some type of penalty. Once again, I have no idea what half the penalties are. So, Jordan's taking a 12 meter. Gets it over to Calibies. Calib gets Oh, other one. I think it must be a stick too close to the face. So on a calib will be on the 8 meter mark. Calib's in drive. Another another good save by Northampton keeper. Green with the ball. I think Northampton's a little weak on the other side because they tend to always come to this right hand side every single time.
So that's something that we're um that we that connection with and and I put um reading and other one-on-one tutoring type of activities before and after school and stuff in that category of what helps. All right. So, we're going to go ahead and talk about um attendance rate and the funding um that comes from that chronic absenteeism measures over the years and then the state reporting process for attendance. So this slide is showing you guys the historical attendance percentage over the last six years and um our LCAP goal for the district is 95.5%. We hit that goal in 1920 but since once CO happened um we hit below that but we have been increasing every year after we came back in full session. This graphic is also showing you um a picture from the California state dashboard. And so it shows you what the state chronic absenteeism rates are.
Yes, it's 2-1 with Bluffton ahead. And then we'll switch our character and then they'll keep Yes. They keep pyro and throw three socks still. Do you like to play those characters? No, not at all. Rule. What about King K Rule? Nope. I haven't seen you play that one. Although I've seen you play most of these characters. There's some I like more than others. What's your favorite? Luigi. Luigi. What was your favorite before Luigi? Kaza. I used to play Kazio a lot and then I switched to Luigi recently. How many hours do you think you have on Luigi now? Not many. What's your version of not many? It's been like a month. Okay, but we have Mythra starting off strong. All dropping the grab. King DDD with the big hits. Oh, almost force match. That would have killed the shield pressure with Mithra. Him barely avoiding it.
I I actually just ran. I and it's not, you know, I didn't plan it that way, but uh it takes a huge amount of time. I don't want to embarrass myself. Um so that's why I'm here. So uh more than I already have anyway. So that's it. Thanks. Thank you, Tom. Um I'm Maggie. I'm an oncology nurse at Beth Israel in Boston. I graduated in 2019 from Ashland. I ran the marathon last year and it was such a good experience. Not for Ashland, but I wanted to do it again. Both my parents are marathon runners. My dad's run about 12. My mom ran one, so I wanted to check it off the bucket list. And then I had such a good time last year, I wanted to do it again. So, I thought I should do it from the town I'm from. That's great. Thank you so much, Maggie.
No, as I say that they get the ball to the other side of the field and Little brings the ball over the restraining line. Gets it to McDonald. McDonald to Green. Gets the ball back of the net to Brahman. Robin setting up the Northampton defense looking for somebody. Looks just misses green as Jenna Holly ends up with the ball quickly gets it out to Caroline Lucas. She brings the ball up. Gets the ball to Marino. The Marino's got 15 seconds left. Still time to set up a play over to Lucas. Kasich to M. Whitwer. M Whitler behind the back to Trillio who Oh. who under behind the back underhand. That would have been a nice behind the back from Witward to Trullio. That would have been a nice one-two combo. Just goes wide. East Meto up three nothing into the first quarter. And we're back for second half action as the Spartans have a three to nothing lead over the Blue Devils.
And our highlight here is that Chica Unified has remained under the state goal this entire time. So we have done better than the state average. My role for Chico Unified is the coordinator of student information and there are state reporting requirements with my role. Some of them are to report attendance to CalPADS which is used by the state to calculate chronic absentism rates. And the other system that we use to report attendance is the principal aortionment data collection which is where we report our ADA. I report this three times a year and um that's at P1, P2 and Tim. Can you explain what is? Yeah, Calpads is going to go blank on what the acronym stands for, but it's the California student data system. So all the data that we yeah California longitudinal data system. So um all the data that we have on students um as far as demographics, attendance, um discipline get sent to Calpads.
Switched to Pyro the wrong time. Good F smash kills at 80. Was it? Pirate myth are still looking pretty dominant right now. attempted f smash. Almost hit. There's been many almost hit f smash in this game. Pyro just just with the one that actually did hit. Nice recovery by King K Rule. keeps going for those S smash. No one's hit yet. The main one will back throw kills off the side of the stage. Oh, the crown interrupts the neutral B. Would have gotten into shield break if it didn't. Nice down air. Okay, myithra ahead by stock. King Gerill trying to even it up. Getting a a reversal with foresight. Switch right into the cannonball. Another down air. Oh, almost. Can he do it without losing another stock or will king take it just barely lives with another stock. So now it even back up with the score 22.
Thank you. Hi, I'm Talita and I live in Ashlin. I've been here for five years. My husband and that's okay. We all people, you know. Yeah, I'm little like my brain is not functioning at this time. My My husband and I, we both are marathoners and we met because of the races. So that's so cool. It's a story that started with the running And I'm so thankful that uh I got told to run for Asheland. And actually um I had to defer the Boston Marathon because I found out that I'm pregnant. So I had to h Susan knows because I had been back and forth with her with emails and Laura. So uh they sent me some emails and then I could defer to six or 27. So, I'm still here because I I'm really grateful for all the board and I'm expecting twins. So, it's double trouble.
So far, it's been a pretty pretty even even matchup. Uh goalie for Northampton, believe it's Dawson is making a bunch of great saves as Jenna Holl is making a couple good saves for East Saw Meadow on our end to keep Northampton goalless after 12 minutes of action. Mac Whitmer on a draw. [Music] Just a reminder, snack check is open tonight with hot coffee and hot chocolate and lots of other snacks for you. So, stop on down. Two of the three salt girls on the circle right now are super sevens along with Addie Jordan saying earlier she was a super seven. Kenna Marino Mass commit is also another second year western mass mass live super 7. Congratulations to Kenna on that one. Mac throws it up, goes and gets it herself. Ball bounces around. Marino ends up with the ball. Fires it over to Jordan. Speedster gets the ball over the restraining line.
Um special education status, um we send staffing information to CalPADS. Um, and that's kept year to year. And that's kind of the when we look at the at the dashboard, for example, all that data comes from originally longitudinal pupil achievement data system. Thank you. You're welcome. All right. Next, we're going to jump into the physical implications of attendance. We'll talk about average daily attendance or ADA as we commonly refer to it as well as some absence makeup opportunities. So just a reminder the the state funds California school districts and charter schools based on our average daily attendance not our enrollment. So when we talk about these percentages at 92 93 94% not only does it say on average that's how many students are attending every day but it also drives our funing. Um so fortunately um each year there's three options that that we automatically get the higher of the three um from a funding perspective that leads to the highest ADA option.
