School Facility Good Repair StatusYear and month of the most recent FIT report: October 2016

School Facility Conditions and Planned ImprovementsSchool Facility Conditions and Planned Improvements

Description of the condition and cleanliness of the school grounds, buildings, and restrooms

The school has sufficient space to house its classrooms, mandated special programs, and site-developed programs. Renovat ions have been performed tomodernize classrooms and upgrade the building infrastructure. Infrastructure projects included installat ion of new electrical, plumbing and gas ut ilit ies. Newcarpets, paint, flooring, wall fixtures, counters, and sinks were among the modernizat ion projects.

School Cleanliness

Three custodians work at the site. One custodian works during the day, the others work at night. The custodians are responsible for general cleaning andupkeep of the site, classrooms, offices, walkways, and restrooms. Of the two night custodians, there is one full-t ime custodian and one part-t ime custodian thatworks for four (4) hours each night.

During the summer, classrooms, offices and common areas are thoroughly cleaned. To a lesser degree, thorough cleaning is undertaken during w inter and springrecesses. The custodial supervisor inspects site maintenance and cleanliness on a regularly scheduled basis.

District grounds keepers work at the school one full day per week. They perform general gardening dut ies necessary to maintain a safe and attract ive school site.

District maintenance staff ensures that the repairs necessary to keep the school in working order are completed in a t imely manner. A work order process is usedto ensure efficient service and that emergency repairs are given the highest priority.

The District part icipates in the State School Deferred Maintenance Program which provides state funds to assist school districts w ith expenditures for major repairor replacement of exist ing school building components. Typically, this includes roofing, plumbing, heat ing, air condit ioning, electrical systems, interior or exteriorpaint ing, and floor systems.

B. Pupil Outcomes

State Priority: Pupil Achievement

The SARC provides the follow ing information relevant to the State priority: Pupil Achievement (Priority 4):

Statewide assessments (i.e., California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress [CAASPP] System, which includes the Smarter Balanced SummativeAssessments for students in the general educat ion populat ion and the California Alternate Assessments [CAAs] for English language arts/literacy [ELA] andmathematics given in grades three through eight and grade eleven. The CAAs have replaced the California Alternate Performance Assessment [CAPA] for ELA andmathematics, which were eliminated in 2015. Only eligible students may part icipate in the administrat ion of the CAAs. CAA items are aligned w ith alternateachievement standards, which are linked w ith the Common Core State Standards [CCSS] for students w ith significant cognit ive disabilit ies); and

The percentage of students who have successfully completed courses that sat isfy the requirements for entrance to the University of California and the CaliforniaState University, or career technical educat ion sequences or programs of study.

Note: Percentages are not calculated when the number of students tested is ten or less, either because the number of students in this category is too small forstat ist ical accuracy or to protect student privacy.

Double dashes (--) appear in the table when the number of students is ten or less, either because the number of students in this category is too small for stat ist icalaccuracy or to protect student privacy.

Note: The number of students tested includes all students who part icipated in the test whether they received a score or not; however, the number of students testedis not the number that was used to calculate the achievement level percentages.

Spring CFA was Summary of Expository) and analyzed and discussed student work w ith site grade level teams as part of the ongoing training efforts. Last ly,various opt ional after school workshops on Math and English Language Arts were offered to teachers throughout the years.

Professional Development during the 2014-2015 school year had a major focus on mathematics instruct ion. Teachers on special assignment ut ilized the Cognit iveGuided Instruct ion (CGI) model to help teachers understand the knowledge that students bring to the math process and how they connect that knowledgewith formal concepts and operat ions. The specific topics for the training were problem types, problem solving, the standards for mathematical pract ices andfract ions. Teachers were also trained on the writ ing standards and progressions and given an introduct ion to argument/opinion writ ing integrated w ith sciencecontent. Follow-up/cont inued training was also provided in the areas of close reading and text dependent quest ions. All school sites selected a team topart icipate in a foundat ional learning module on Mult i-T iered Systems of Support.

The district adopted a new series for the 2015-2016 school year, The Math Learning Center: Bridges for K-5 and College Preparatory Math (CPM) - CoreConnect ions 1 for sixth grade. Before contractual days, select teachers part icipated in two days of training the trainers. These teachers served as in-houseexperts throughout the year. In addit ion, our init ial contractual professional development days provided Bridges and CPM training for all staff. Init ial contractualdays provided a new teacher training day to orient teachers to Goleta Union School District . We also cont inued our Different iated Instruct ion for fourth throughsixth grade teachers w ith a focus on fifth grade teachers.
