Introduction

Every school in California is required by state law to publish a School Accountability Report Card (SARC), by February 1 of each year. The SARC contains information about the condition and performance of each California public school. Under the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) all local educational agencies (LEAs) are required to prepare a Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP), which describes how they intend to meet annual school-specific goals for all pupils, with specific activities to address state and local priorities. Additionally, data reported in an LCAP is to be consistent with data reported in the SARC.

For more information about SARC requirements, see the California Department of Education (CDE) SARC Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/ sa/.

View this SARC online at the school and/or Web sites.

For more information about LCFF or LCAP, see the CDE CDELFCC Web page at http://

www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/lc/.

For additional information about the school, parents and community members should contact the school principal or the district office.

wide basis through the Professional Learning Communities process.

Teachers meet regularly to analyze data and to create researched-based lessons that are based on the California Common Core State Standards. Focusing on close reading, Depth of Knowledge and unwrapping the standards has brought our attention to cross-curricular targets. All of our classrooms are equipped with electronic Promethean boards (smart boards) and computers to better utilize quick time visuals and resources to help students truly understand content and concepts. This year we will complete a plan to upgrade both teacher and student computers. We continue to recognize the importance of strategic planning by focusing on the following school wide structures: (1) School wide priorities, (2) Data teams, (3) Response to Intervention and (4) School Wide Positive Behavior Intervention Support (SWPBIS). Through our school wide focus we continue to work as a team to support all students. Our dedicated staff continually goes above and beyond to provide additional support to our children. Many teachers open their classrooms before school, during recess and after school to assist students with math, reading and writing.

Parents play an integral part of our success. We are thankful for having such dedicated parents who support our educational programs. Parents and community members are always welcome at Rancho. Come by for a visit, meet the staff and join us as we continue to create a school where all students are successful.

Rancho de la Nación School

Instructional Program

Our school is committed to meeting the needs of students with exceptional needs in the least restrictive environment. We offer a variety of special education aids and services to help students be successful in the general education program. Students who need a more restrictive program will continue to participate in the general education classroom for some part of each school day. In 2013-2014 our school had 53 students who qualified for these special education programs. At the school site, there are 10 students in Special Day Class, 30 students receiving Speech and Language services, and 19 students receiving Resource Specialist Program services and 4 students on a 504 plan. Students that are not yet fluent in English, participate in classes that help them gain fluency. During the 2013-14 school year, we had _____ English Learners enrolled. We strive to advance our English Learners each year. Students participate in daily English Language Development to continue their growth. Students also use Imagine Learning software which targets language development. A newcomer program is established at satellite schools that supports our students who are non-English speaking and new to the United States in grades 4, 5, and 6.

Maintenance and Repair

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.

Cleaning Process and Schedule

We have made a conscientious effort to provide a clean and attractive campus. Students are encouraged to have pride in their school and keep the campus clean.

The District Governing Board has adopted cleaning standards for all schools in the district. A summary of these standards is available at the school office or at the district maintenance office. The principal works daily with the custodial staff and the custodial supervisor to develop cleaning schedules to ensure a clean and safe school.

School Accountability Report Card

Deferred Maintenance Fund

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. For the 2014-15 school year, the district has budgeted $400,000 for the deferred maintenance program. This represents 0.75% of the district’s general fund.

For the 2014-15 school year, the District’s Governing Board has approved deferred maintenance projects for all ten schools that will result in asphalt paving, fencing, flooring, millwork and roofing.

Professional Development - Three Most Recent Year

The selection of focus areas for on-going professional development is based on a careful analysis of achievement data. The district calendar earmarks full days and early release time for providing site-based professional development for all teachers. Teachers also have opportunities to attend conferences and district wide professional development throughout the year. Areas of focus for teacher training include effective instructional strategies for implementation of Common Core Standards, curriculum training in writing, language arts and mathematics, as well as specific training to support the needs of English Learners. Teachers of students with special needs and teachers of newcomer students also receive specialized training to assist them in meeting the unique needs of their students. This professional development is provided in various formats, including whole staff group, grade-level teams, and through individual mentoring by the school administrator.

The District also assists in the coordination of BTSA Induction Support for year one and two teachers. Teachers who are experiencing difficultly or need improvement have access to the PAR (Peer Assistance Review) Program.
