School Safety Plan (School Year 2008-09)
This section provides information
about the school's comprehensive safety plan.
|
Each month fire drills are held for all students. Each trimester
we perform a combination earthquake/emergency drill. We also practice
“lock down” drills at least once a trimester. We promote an
environment of nonviolence and respect for all individuals. During the 09-10
school year we will implement the character
education program Soul Shoppe. This program improves the school culture via
character building and conflict resolution.

School Facility Conditions and Planned
Improvements (School Year 2009-10)
This section provides information
about the condition of the school’s grounds, buildings, and restrooms,
and a description of any planned or recently completed facility improvements.
|
The District takes
great efforts to ensure that all schools are clean, safe, and
functional. To assist in this effort, the District uses a facility
survey instrument developed by the State of California Office of Public
School Construction. The results of this survey are available through
the Maintenance and Operations Department.
District maintenance
staff ensures that the repairs necessary to keep the school in good repair
and working order are completed in a timely manner. A work order
process is used to ensure efficient service and that emergency repairs are
given the highest priority.
Additionally, the
District participates in the State School Deferred Maintenance Program, which
provides State matching funds on a dollar-for-dollar basis, to assist school
districts with expenditures for major repair or replacement of existing
school building components. Typically, this includes roofing, plumbing,
heating, air conditioning, electrical systems, interior or exterior painting,
and floor systems.

IX. Student Performance
Standardized Testing and Reporting Program
The Standardized Testing
and Reporting (STAR) Program consists of several key components, including the
California Standards Tests (CSTs); the California Modified Assessment (CMA),
and the California Alternate Performance Assessment (CAPA). The CSTs show how
well students are doing in relation to the state content standards. The CSTs
include English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics in grades two through
eleven; science in grades five, eight, and nine through eleven; and
history-social science in grades eight, and ten through eleven. The CAPA
includes ELA, mathematics, and science in grades two through eleven, and for
science for grades five, eight, and ten. The CAPA is given to those students
with significant cognitive disabilities whose disabilities prevent them from
taking either the CSTs with accommodations or modifications or the CMA with
accommodations. The CMA includes ELA and mathematics for grades three through
eight and science in grade five and is an alternate assessment that is based on
modifiedachievement standards. The CMA is designed to assess those students
whose disabilities preclude them from achieving grade-level proficiency on an
assessment of the California
content standards with or without accommodations. Student scores are reported
as performance levels. Detailed information regarding the STAR Program results
for each grade and performance level, including the percent of students not
tested, can be found on the CDE Standardized
Testing and Reporting (STAR) Results Web site. Program information
regarding the STAR Program can be found in the Explaining
2008 STAR Program Summary Results to the Public guide. Note: Scores are not
shown when the number of students tested is ten or less, either because the
number of students in this category is too small for statistical accuracy or to
protect student privacy. In no case shall any group score be reported that
would deliberately or inadvertently make public the score or performance of any
individual student.

X. Accountability
Academic Performance Index
The Academic Performance Index
(API) is an annual measure of the academic performance and progress of schools
in California.
API scores range from 200 to 1,000, with a statewide target of 800. Detailed
information about the API can be found on the CDE Academic Performance Index (API) Web
page.
Academic Performance Index Ranks –
Three-Year Comparison
This table displays the
school’s statewide and similar schools API ranks. The statewide API rank
ranges from one to ten. A statewide rank of one means that the school has an
API score in the lowest ten percent of all schools in the state, while a
statewide rank of ten means that the school has an API score in the highest ten
percent of all schools in the state. The similar schools API rank reflects how
a school compares to 100 statistically matched “similar schools.” A
similar schools rank of one means that the school’s academic performance
is comparable to the lowest performing ten schools of the 100 similar schools,
while a similar schools rank of ten means that the school’s academic
performance is better than at least 90 of the 100 similar schools.

|
means this API is calculated
for a small school or a small LEA, defined as having between 11 and 99 valid
STAR Program test scores included in the API. APIs based on small numbers of
students are less reliable and therefore should be carefully interpreted.
Similar schools ranks are not calculated for small schools.
|
|
"B"
|
means this is either an LEA
or an Alternative Schools Accountability Model (ASAM) school. Schools
participating in the ASAM do not currently receive growth, target
information, or statewide or similar schools rankings on this report in
recognition of their markedly different educational missions and populations
served. ASAM schools are covered under the Alternative Accountability system
as required by Education Code Section 52052 and not the API accountability
system. However, API information is needed to comply with the federal No
Child Left Behind (NCLB) law. Growth, target and rank information are not
applicable to LEAs.
|
|
"C"
|
means this is a special
education school. Statewide and similar schools ranks are not applicable to
special education schools.
|

Adequate Yearly Progress
The federal NCLB Act requires that
all schools and districts meet the following Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)
criteria:
Participation rate on the
state’s standards-based assessments in ELA and mathematics
Percent proficient on the
state’s standards-based assessments in ELA and mathematics
API as an additional
indicator
Graduation rate (for
secondary schools)
Detailed information about AYP,
including participation rates and percent proficient results by student group,
can be found on the CDE Adequate
Yearly Progress (AYP) Web page.
Adequate Yearly Progress Overall and by
Criteria (School Year 2008-09)

Schools and districts receiving
federal Title I funding enter Program Improvement (PI) if they do not make AYP
for two consecutive years in the same content area (ELA or mathematics) or on
the same indicator (API or graduation rate). After entering PI, schools and
districts advance to the next level of intervention with each additional year
that they do not make AYP. Detailed information about PI identification can be
found on the CDE Adequate Yearly
Progress (AYP) Web page.

XI. Instructional Planning and Scheduling
Professional Development
This section provides information
on the annual number of school days dedicated to staff development for the most
recent three-year period.
|
The district coordinates a variety of staff development programs
for teachers and administrators based on assessed needs and state mandates.
Two days, prior to the school year, are dedicated to staff development.
Professional Development is offered at least
once a month, with a focus on student learning, collaboration, and results.
Teachers are provided three grade level meetings per month to set goals, analyze
data, and monitor progress. English Language Learners make up 50% of our
population. Staff has been trained in Systematic ELD. All teachers have been
trained in BoardMath and are implementing this
program daily and with fidelity. Rio Vista staff has participated in several
Professional Learning Community (PLC) activities since the beginning of the
year. Staff will continue to engage in PLC activities throughout the year.
Additional collaboration time has been built into the daily schedule.
|
XII. National Assessment of Educational
Progress
National Assessment of Educational Progress
The National Assessment of
Educational Progress (NAEP) is a nationally representative assessment of what America's
students know and can do in various subject areas. Assessments are conducted
periodically in mathematics, reading, science, writing, the arts, civics,
economics, geography, and U.S.
history. Student scores for reading and mathematics are reported as performance
levels (i.e., basic, proficient, and advanced) and the participation of
students with disabilities and English language learners is reported based on
three levels (identified, excluded, and assessed). Detailed information
regarding the NAEP results for each grade, performance level, and participation
rate can be found on the National
Assessment of Educational Progress Web page (Outside Source).
Note: Only a sample group of California's schools and
districts participate in the NAEP testing cycle. Therefore, students in any
particular school or district may not be included in these results. The NAEP
reflects state test results and is not reflective of either the LEA or the
individual school. Comparisons of student performance on the NAEP and student
performance on the Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Program
assessments cannot be made without an understanding of the key differences
between the two assessment programs. For example, the NAEP only assesses grades
four, eight and twelve and for long-term trends assesses grades nine, thirteen,
and seventeen. Additionally, the NAEP only provides state test results for
grades four and eight. The California Standards Tests (CSTs) are based on a
different set of standards than the NAEP assessments. For example, the NAEP is
not aligned with California
academic content and achievement standards and, therefore, does not necessarily
reflect the curriculum and instruction to which students are exposed in the
classroom. The NAEP assesses reading and writing separately, while the CSTs
assess English-language arts (ELA), encompassing reading as well as writing
conventions, spelling, and grammar. Scores on the CSTs and other assessments
are not directly comparable to those on NAEP. The averages and percentages
presented are estimates based on samples of students rather than on entire
populations. Finally, the questions students respond to are only a sample of
the knowledge and skills covered by the NAEP frameworks. Information on the
differences between NAEP and CST can be found on the CDE National Assessment of Educational
Progress (NAEP) Web page.
