School Safety Plan (School Year 2008-09)&= nbsp;

This sect= ion provides information about the school's comprehensive safety plan.&n= bsp;

Jackson Jr. High strives to maintain a safe, healthy, and orderly campus that enc= ourages positive attitudes in students and staff. Safety hazards are reported by = all staff. The district maintenance department utilized a computerized maintenance tracker. This allows our site to report any hazards in a very timely manner.

 

We conduct fire, earthquake, and lock-down drills each month. The drills are discussed and procedures reviewed and changed as necessary.  New radios were purchased for be= tter campus communication during all drills and on a daily basis.

 

We have developed emergency plans to deal with threatening situations. All s= taff members are part of the school Crisis Team. There is ongoing coordination between the principal, campus supervisor, counselor, and other staff.

 

All visitors and volunteers = must sign in at the main office.

Standardized Testing and Reporting Program  

The Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Program consis= ts 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 ho= w well students are doing in relation to the state content standards. The CSTs include English-language arts (ELA) and mathemat= ics 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, a= nd 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 accommoda= tions 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 modifiedachievem= ent 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 Pro= gram results for each grade and performance level, including the percent of stud= ents not tested, can be found on the CDE Sta= ndardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Results Web site. Program information regarding the STAR Program can be found in the Expla= ining 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 o= r 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 Calif= ornia. 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-Y= ear 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 t= he lowest ten percent of all schools in the state, while a statewide rank of t= en 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 simi= lar 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.&n= bsp;

"B"

means this is either an LEA or an Alternative Schools Accountability Model (ASA= M) school. Schools participating in the ASAM do not currently receive growth, target information, or statewide or similar schools rankings on this repo= rt 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 w= ith the federal No Child Left Behind (NCLB) law. Growth, target and rank information are not applicable to LEAs.

means this is a special education school. Statewide and similar schools ranks a= re not applicable to special education schools.

" * "

means this API is calculated for a small school or a small LEA, defined as havi= ng between 11 and 99 valid STAR Program test scores included in the API.

Admission Requirements for California Public Universities

University of California

Admission requirements for the Univer= sity of California (UC) follow guidelines set forth in the Master Plan, which re= quires that the top one-eighth of the state's high school graduates, as well as th= ose transfer students who have successfully completed specified college work, be eligible for admission to the UC. These requirements are designed to ensure that all eligible students are adequately prepared for University-level wor= k. For general admissions requirements please visit the Gene= ral Admissions Information Web page (Outside Source).

California State University

Admission requirements for the Califo= rnia State University (CSU) use three factors to determine eligibility. They are specific high school courses; grades in specified courses and test scores; = and graduation from high school. Some campuses have higher standards for partic= ular majors or students who live outside the local campus area. Because of the number of students who apply, a few campuses have higher standards (supplementary admission criteria) for all applicants. Most CSU campuses utilize local admission guarantee policies for students who graduate or transfer from high schools and colleges that are historically served by a C= SU campus in that region. For general admissions requirements please visit the= Undergraduate Admission &= amp; Requirements Web page (Outside Source).

Dropout Rate and Graduation Rate
