**PART III ‑ SUMMARY**

Twin Oaks Elementary School (TOES) is beautifully located in the
picturesque Twin Oaks Valley of San Marcos. This relatively new school
has established a consistent focus on the teaching and learning process
for our students. The school was recognized as a Title 1 Achieving
school in 2002 and 2003. It was also recognized as a California
Distinguished School in 2002. Our mission statement has fueled our
success. We believe that all students can learn and that academic
excellence is the standard, diversity is valued, and all students will
reach their full potential as students and as people.

The staff began in the spring of 1998 as a group from all over the
district. Our first challenge was to develop a positive rapport with
parents uncomfortable with the school's diversity. The staff, however,
was united by the vision of "achievement for all" and motivated to meet
the challenges of winning over the community and creating an educational
environment that would meet the needs of all students. This
enthusiastic, positive, creative, dedicated staff set about facing these
challenges and the myriad tasks required to open a school with the hard
work, team spirit, and flexibility that are very much who we are today.

In five years the school has grown from 700 to nearly 970 students. Our
attendance area is socioeconomically mixed, ranging from abject poverty
to upper middle class. Our population is culturally and ethnically
diverse. The student body consists of 57% Hispanic, 37% white, 3% Asian,
and 2% African American. The majority of our Hispanic population speaks
Spanish as their primary language. Fifty-two percent of our students
ride the bus to school and 55% receive free or reduced lunch.

During the 1997-98 school year, TOES was in the planning stages. With
students coming from two district schools, the administrators and
teachers began the task of bringing the community together in support of
this new school. Staff held informational meetings in the homes of
interested parents, brainstorming sessions were held at school sites,
and the vision was developed and refined through the process of shared
decision-making. From these meetings, many of the parent leaders emerged
and have helped to shape the school. A result of this close working
relationship has been that parents have grown to appreciate the
strengths that cultural diversity brings to a school and have taken
pride in our development.

Our students also shared in a variety of decisions about our new school
including selecting our school mascot and colors. The first year saw the
meshing of students and staff into a new environment where new
friendships were forged and new traditions established.

In a short time, we have accomplished a great deal. The community is
positive and involved. Students are happy, secure and dedicated to doing
their best. Our emphasis on respect and hard work is readily apparent to
all visitors and our commitment to the pursuit of excellence for all
students has generated outstanding results. Our students have achieved
excellent academic growth each year and have earned financial bonuses
and awards for these achievements. We have established a process for
continual growth and will always strive to find ways to improve. This
positive dedication of the entire school community ensures that the Twin
Oaks Coyotes will continue to move forward in the years to come.

**PART IV -- INDICATORS OF ACADEMIC SUCCESS**

**Assessment Results**

The state of California tested all grade 2-5 students in reading,
language arts, and mathematics on the Stanford Achievement Test, Ninth
edition (SAT/9) from 1998-2003 and then the California Achievement Test,
Sixth Edition (CAT/6) in 2003, and the California Standards Test (CST)
as part of the California State Testing and Reporting (STAR) program.
The SAT/9 and CAT/6 are norm referenced standardized tests. Students are
tested on reading, language, mathematics and spelling. Scores are
reported in percentile rankings (NPR). The results from 1999 have been
charted. Test data for all grades is analyzed

yearly by grade level teams and Program Improvement Plans are developed
based on strengths and weaknesses determined from this process. These
plans drive staff development, purchase of materials, and instructional
approaches. Results for TOES are disaggregated and reported at each
grade level. The subgroups at TOES designated as significant by the
state of California are: 1) English Learner, 2) English Only/Fluent, and
3) Socioeconomically Disadvantaged.

The California Standards Test (CST) is aligned to the California Content
Standards. All students in grades 2-5 are assessed in reading/language
arts and mathematics. Reading/Language Arts have been reported starting
in 2001 and Mathematics has been reported starting in 2002. Data is
reported as a cumulative percent of students who perform in the
following categories as defined by the state of California: 1) Advanced,
2) Proficient, 3) Basic, and 4) Below Basic, and 5) Far Below Basic.
Subgroups are reported as the percent Proficient or Above.

Each year all California schools receive an Academic Performance Index
(API) Score and Growth report. The API is based on a combination of the
SAT9/CAT6 and the CST scores. Scores are reported by school and by
significant subgroups within the school. A subgroup is considered
significant when there are 100 or more students in this group. The
significant subgroups for TOES are: 1) Socioeconomically Disadvantaged,
2) Hispanic/Latino, and 3) White. The state establishes goals for each
school and each subgroup at the school and schools are expected to make
annual progress. A score of 800 is the expectation established for all
schools. The API is also used to determine if a school has met the
Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) requirements.

During Twin Oaks' five years of operation, the school has established a
pattern of continual growth for all students. The school has exceeded
the AYP requirements each year for all students and all subgroups and
API results have improved dramatically. The total school API has
improved 159 points to 790. The Hispanic/Latino subgroup's score has
improved 201 points to 708, the Socioeconomically Disadvantaged
subgroups has risen 192 points to 723, and the White subgroup has grown
144 points to 879. All groups have shown growth every year and the
Socioeconomically Disadvantaged and Hispanic/Latino (mostly English
Learners) students have narrowed the gap significantly. The best
interpretation of these scores is that Title 1 students are making large
gains but not at the expense of other students. With a population that
is over 50% socioeconomically disadvantaged and close to 40% English
Learners, these scores demonstrate the success of the school's programs
and strategies. All students are learning!

The API is the best measure of overall achievement because it includes
both the CST and SAT9/CAT6 results. CST results have improved each year
with our 4^th^ and 5^th^ graders showing the best results. An analysis
of this data shows that the students who have been at TOES the longest
do the best.

**Assessment Analysis and Program Improvement**

Assessment results strongly guide our planning, modifications of
curriculum, and daily instruction. Grade-level teams analyze state test
results at the beginning of the year to determine relative strengths and
weaknesses. Grade-level teams use this analysis to develop a program
improvement plan for the year with timelines for instruction. Each
teacher meets with the principal two times each year to discuss students
who are below grade level in reading. Title 1 reading and math teachers
provide additional instruction to Title 1 students. Students are
regrouped for language arts and math instruction to receive instruction
at the appropriate level. Students who have shown mastery of material
are enriched while those who need extra time receive remediation.

Teachers use a variety of methods to accurately determine each student's
progress toward mastery of state standards. These methods include
literacy portfolios, interim assessments, district writing tests,
teacher-generated tests, and teacher observations. Literacy portfolios
contain individual running records, rubric-scored writing samples, a
phonics assessment, and a spelling assessment. Students are assessed
each trimester. Portfolios are passed on each year so teachers can begin
planning academic instruction before the school year begins. Interim
assessments measure student mastery of district language arts and math
standards. The results of these assessments are recorded by teachers and
discussed with the

principal. These school wide assessments, in addition to individual
teacher assessments and observations, create a means by which student
and school progress toward achieving the standards is measured and
communicated.

Grade-level teams meet monthly, and on staff-development days, to
discuss the effectiveness of current instructional programs and
practices. Suggestions are made and programs are altered to best meet
the students' needs and further ensure mastery of standards.

**Communicating Results**

Twin Oaks teachers communicate student performance to parents and
students in an ongoing manner throughout the year. At Back to School
Night, parents learn about individual classroom communication plans
including weekly progress report, mid-term progress reports, and
trimesterly report cards. This ongoing communication and monitoring
encourages active participation between teachers and parents. At the end
of the first trimester, teachers meet with every student's parents to
discuss academic achievement, work habits and effort. Information from
classroom assessments is shared at this time. All site notices and
reports are translated into Spanish and a translator is available for
parent-teacher conferences.

Students receive immediate and specific feedback during lessons and have
many opportunities for self evaluation. They use rubrics to evaluate
their progress while identifying their strengths and weaknesses.
Students are publicly recognized for accomplishments at bi-weekly
school-wide awards ceremonies. Parents and community members are invited
to these celebrations of achievement.

All state test results are sent to parents with a short narrative about
student strengths and weaknesses, national comparison rankings, and
student performance on California Standards Test items. Teachers discuss
these results with parents when requested. School and district results
are presented to the public at Governing Board meetings. All results are
published in the newspaper and the district's newsletter for the
community's benefit.

**Sharing Our Success**

Twin Oaks Elementary School shares its successes with other elementary
schools in the district at bi-monthly administrative council meeting.
These meetings focus on critical instruction and supervision issues and
are attended by the Assistant Superintendent of Curriculum and
Instruction and the Director of Testing and Curriculum. In addition to
these formal sharing opportunities, successful practices are shared in
informal discussions with other principals both inside and outside the
district. Several years ago, the TOES staff developed and implemented a
highly successful after school Homework Club. This was shared with other
district schools and was implemented by each of these schools. Other
schools have also implemented changes to their Title 1 programs based on
our programs.

Last year the principal presented our successful practices at the Title
1 Achieving Schools Conference to nearly 600 educators. We have also
hosted several visits from schools that are interested in our success
and we have talked on the phone to several more schools. Our teachers
present at district workshops and play an active role in the district's
curriculum and instruction development and implementation.

We have always been open and will continue to share our experiences and
practices with all interested educators. Twin Oaks is proud of its
accomplishments in serving students from diverse backgrounds and will
work with the San Diego County Office of Educators to publicize and
share our program.

**PART V -- CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION**

**The School's Curriculum**

At Twin Oaks Elementary we believe that all students can meet and exceed
the high standards we have established provided they receive clear,
effective instruction and are given the necessary time. To do this, we
have a staff highly trained in delivering instruction so that the
curriculum is engaging and accessible to our full range of learners,
from Gifted and Talented to Special Needs students and for our second
language learners.

Twin Oaks teachers use the state content standards to ensure that all
students receive a comprehensive, balanced educational program. The
district's Literacy Curriculum and Mathematics Curriculum have been
recently aligned to the state's standards. This curriculum supports the
district's vision of promoting higher-level critical thinking as well as
knowledge and application of the basic skills needed for success. Our
reading program reflects a balance between the skills and practice
necessary to promote effective readers and a literature base so that
students can enjoy reading classic stories and build a foundation for
personal writing and reading in the future. We emphasize the essential
reading skills of decoding, prior knowledge, vocabulary, and
comprehension with fiction, non fiction, and functional text.

The district uses a California state adopted literacy series in English
and Spanish, as well as state adopted materials for students
participating in Structured English Immersion. These materials are based
on current research from the National Reading Panel. The language arts
program emphasizes phonemic awareness, systematic explicit phonics, and
instruction in specific reading comprehension strategies and skills.

Twin Oaks teachers have developed the school's spelling program based on
spelling research. The emphasis is on spelling correctly in writing. The
program is designed around high frequency words, spelling rules, and "no
excuse" words which should never be misspelled. Students are held
accountable for spelling in the everyday writing, not just on spelling
tests.

Teachers use state adopted mathematics textbooks integrated with
conceptual activities to ensure a deep understanding of mathematic
concepts. Hands-on activities, real life situations, direct skill
development and problem solving strategies are woven throughout the
mathematic strands.

Science and social studies content standards are taught using state
adopted instructional materials. A thematic approach is used and these
subjects complement instruction in reading, writing, and mathematics.

Students receive weekly, direct instruction in the fine arts from
classrooms teachers and our music specialist. Art and music appreciation
are taught by volunteer art and music docents. Students receive regular
physical education instruction from our physical education specialists.
Our Coyote Character program teaches character development and our
Student Council spearheads our school's involvement in annual community
service projects. Our library and computer lab support our full academic
program.

**Reading**

We believe that reading is the most important skill taught in elementary
school and that the students who read the most, read the best.
Consequently, our students are engaged throughout the day in a reading a
variety of material. Our Accelerated Reading Program is designed to
encourage students to read outside school and students are rewarded for
their achievements. Our reading curriculum focuses directly on reading
strategies and skills aligned to California State Content Standards.
Embedded in the curriculum is a solid foundation in phonemic awareness
and phonics, mastery of sight words, decoding strategies, and an
emphasis on comprehension strategies. This helps ensure students gain
meaning from text. Because students learn differently, we teach specific
grade level skills through a variety of teaching methods such as leveled
reading groups, independent reading, one on one tutoring, guided
reading, read alouds, story mapping, oral discussion, and vocabulary
development. Included within our comprehensive program are 'primary
language', 'structured English immersion', and 'transition' components
for our English learners. We expect all students to develop proficiency
using effective reading strategies to become successful readers.

Following research including 90-90-90 schools, Twin Oaks has chosen to
emphasis reading, writing, and math instruction, to use frequent
assessment of student progress with multiple opportunities for improving
performance, and to emphasis writing across the curriculum. Our approach
has proven successful, providing all students the opportunity to learn
to read effectively so that they are able to 'read to learn' as they
move through school and then into their future.

**Writing**

At Twin Oaks, we believe that to be successful in life students must be
able to read well and communicate both orally and in writing.
Consequently, our students are regularly engaged in a variety of
speaking and writing activities. Our district has recently implemented a
comprehensive writing program for all K-5 students. Each grade teaches
several types of writing and by fifth grade students are expected to
write five paragraph persuasive essays, responses to literature,
narratives, and comprehensive research reports. Each trimester, students
complete a formal writing assessment that is scored using a standardized
rubric. Students receive directed instruction and write in all
curriculum areas. Students are engaged in writer workshops and regularly
work though the writing process of editing and rewriting to bring
selections to publication quality. Through this process, students learn
the importance of organization, critical thinking, and writing to
persuade, inform, and to entertain. Our structured Speechmasters program
provides the oral language component of our language arts curriculum.
This read/write/speak connection reinforces word recognition and
vocabulary development, requires higher order thinking to synthesize
thoughts, and supports good oral and written language convention.

An essential part of our Mission Statement is our commitment that "all
students will acquire the knowledge, skills, and attitudes to be
successful in school and in a global society." Effective communication
skills are vital to success in our information society and our entire
language arts program is dedicated to ensuring that students master
these essential skills.

**Instructional Methods**

The research of Madeline Hunter at the UCLA Lab School on the Essential
Elements of Instruction (EEI) forms the foundation of Twin Oaks' core
instructional techniques and strategies. Teachers use this methodology
to plan and implement instruction. Learning objectives are selected at
the students' correct level of difficulty and connected to students'
prior knowledge and interests. Teachers' model concepts, ensure
students' active participation, and follow up with closure activities to
cement students' learning.

We value and are committed to high expectations for all students. We
maintain a morning block of interrupted classroom time for language arts
and students are regrouped in math and language arts to meet their
instructional needs. Teachers use assessment data to diagnose students
learning difficulties and lessons are developed based on task analysis
of important objectives to ensure that learning is appropriately taught.

Students who struggle in reading or math receive a "second dose" of
instruction from our Title 1 teachers. This instruction is delivered in
small groups and focuses on essential reading and math skills. After
school Homework Club, which is staffed by teachers, provides additional
support for students and their academic needs. Special needs students
have Individual Education Plans and receive intensive systematic
remediation and reinforcement of the skills and strategies needed to
meet our high standards. Gifted and Talented students are clustered and
receive differentiated curriculum and instruction from trained GATE
teachers.

Essential Elements of Instruction, classroom management, curriculum
content, human relations and development, planning, and use of materials
and technology are the components that guide our use of instructional
methods to improve student learning. Assessment results are used to plan
and adjust instruction and we emphasis student active involvement in
their learning. All teachers are trained in differentiating instruction
for students and lessons are planned to cater to a variety of students
needs. Through the systematic use of pre-assessment, strong
instructional methodology, and post assessment, students receive an
education that is challenging and appropriate.

**Professional Development**

Professional development focuses on preparing teachers to help students
achieve standards. Our Strength and Weakness study determines the
professional development goals for each grade level and is used to
evaluate the previous year's staff development. Categorical monies are
used to fund the staff development goals for the year.

All new teachers are part of the Beginning Teacher Support and
Assessment Program. This is a two-year induction program to support new
teachers by guiding them in the complexities of teaching all students.
Support providers give regular feedback to new teachers and demonstrate
exemplary lessons in the classroom.

Administrators in the district have been working with a consultant for
fifteen years on teacher evaluation techniques, improving student
reading performance, and the Essential Elements of Instruction (EEI).
All teachers have received extensive instruction in EEI. Teachers
received feedback on regular lesson observations with areas identified
for reinforcement and refinement.

Instructional Specialists provide training to support teachers on
improving student achievement. Over the past few years, teachers have
received training in phonics, guided reading, decoding, inference
skills, questioning techniques, vocabulary, spelling, independent
reading, main idea, critical thinking strategies, math problem solving
and writing. Each year all teachers attend mandatory trainings that
target standards-based teaching. Ongoing student performance data is
used to analyze the effectiveness of our staff development plan.
