**Part III -- Summary**

Monterey Vista is located in the city of Monterey Park and one of 11
elementary schools in the Garvey School District. The enrollment
consists of 465 students in 19 regular education classes from
Kindergarten through 6^th^ grade, plus 2 Head Start classes. The student
body includes diverse ethnic backgrounds with 62% Asian (Chinese,
Cambodian, Indonesian, Lao, and Vietnamese), 34% Hispanic, 2% White, 1%
Filipino and 1% African American. Even with the challenges of a high
percentage of linguistically diverse and socio-economically disadvantage
students, the school is committed to providing quality programs and
services to assist all students in meeting or exceeding grade level
standards. Monterey Vista is a high achieving school whose Academic
Performance Index (API) has grown from 645 in 1999 to 781 in 2003. We
have the highest API among the 11 elementary and 2 intermediate schools
in the entire district.

Monterey Vista offers a challenging and interesting core curriculum that
focuses on state content standards as well as the needs of our very
diverse student population. Students benefit from a variety of
enrichment and remedial programs including standards-based before and
after school programs, summer school, advanced math classes, foreign
language after school classes (Mandarin Chinese and Spanish), Glee Club
and Bell Choir, art and crafts classes, track and cross country team,
School Age Child Care, and two privately operated after school child
care and tutoring programs.

The effort and dedication from the Monterey Vista teachers and staff
have made the school a quality place where learning occurs. The staff is
proud of our students' high test scores, and yet they view this as only
a fraction of what Monterey Vista's success. The entire staff also want
to brag about the positive, warm, loving and safe environment conducive
to learning that is present through the school. We believe in educating
and shaping the whole-child as our ever-present goal.

Parents are very supportive of the school as shown through their active
participation in a variety of school, social, cultural, academic and
volunteer activities. Local businesses, school district, and outside
agencies also lend support by helping students meet and exceed state
content standards. There is a strong commitment and partnership among
all stakeholders to help every child succeed. All of these components
contribute to a winning Monterey Vista Team.

**Part IV- Indicators of Academic Success**

Question #1

Monterey Vista students have shown steady growth in language arts and
mathematics achievement in the last three years. As a result of
improving academic performance, we have been awarded Title I Achieving
School for two consecutive years (2001, 2002) and became eligible for
application for California Distinguished School Recognition in 2003.

Student achievement is based on the STAR (Standardized Testing and
Reporting) program which currently includes results from the California
Achievement Test, 6^th^ edition and the California Standards Test (CST).
Prior to the year 2001, results from the Stanford Achievement Test,
9^th^ edition (SAT-9) were included in assessment data. In the year
2001, the state adopted the CAT-6 and the CST to take the place of the
SAT-9 because these norm-referenced tests are aligned to California
state standards.

Student scores are reported as performance levels with percentages
showing advanced (exceeding state standards), proficient (meets
standards), basic (approaching standards), below basic (below standards)
and far below basic (well below standards) levels.

In English Language Arts for the 2002-2003 year, students in the
"proficient and advanced" levels grew to 40%, as compared to 34% in the
year before. In the 2000-01 year, there were 30% of our students in the
"below basic and far below basic" levels. This group decreased to 25% in
the following year. Following this same trend in 2002-03, "proficient
and advanced" levels increased to 45% and there was a further decline to
21% for the "below basic and far below basic" levels.

Growth patterns were similar in mathematics, with 53% of students
scoring in the "proficient and advanced" levels in 2001-02 to an
increase of 61% of students in this group for the 2002-03 year.

In analyzing this data for the last three years, we have been pleased to
see how the percentage of our

students in the "proficient and advanced" levels continues to grow,
while our students in the "below basic

and far below basic" levels decreases.

Monterey Vista's Academic Performance Index reached a score of 781 in
2002-03. The California Department of Education has a goal of 800 as an
Academic Performance Index (API) to show schools that are providing
students with a quality education. API scores can range on a scale
between 200 and 1000 to indicate the academic performance and progress
of individual schools in California.

In 1999-2000, our school's API was 645 and increased to 738 in 2000-01
(93 points). In 2001-02, an API score of 743 was achieved, with a
further ascent to 781 in the last year. This has been a total of 136
points since 1999.

Our school surpassed its Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) goal with growth
of 38 points in the

2002-03 year. The AYP for Monterey Vista was set for 3 points. The
annual yearly growth target

is determined by formulating five percent of the distance between a
school's base API and 800.

Since 1999, all numerically significant sub-groups in our school have
been able to meet their growth targets (which is equal to 80% of the
school's target.) This has been important because all racial/ethnic and
socio-economically disadvantaged groups need to meet their goals in
order for the

whole school to be identified as having met its target.

Question #2

The progress of the students and Monterey Vista School is measured using
a variety of assessments. These assessments include California
Achievement Test 6^th^ edition, California Standards Test, Performance
Standards Record, a locally developed assessment designed to measure K-6
student proficiency levels against a key set of California standards,
and the California English Language Development Test which yields data
of the performance of individual students and statistically significant
groups.

The Leadership team and Monterey Vista staff meet regularly to evaluate
assessment data for subgroups such as English Language Learners, Special
Education Students, and socio-economic status and ethnicities. The data
is used to determine if established growth targets and grade level
standards in the previous year have been met and also to evaluate
student progress. From this information, areas of academic strengths and
weaknesses are identified, academic goals for the current year are
established, and the school plan is developed. Intervention and
enrichment programs and purchasing of supplementary materials and staff
development activities are determined. Teachers meet to develop
instructional strategies, modify and adjust curriculum, adjust pacing
schedule, individualize instruction, and make other instructional
decisions to enable students to meet grade level standards. New growth
targets are established annually with programs and funding adjusted to
reflect the needs of all statistically significant subgroups.

Question #3

Monterey Vista sets high goals for its students. These goals and
expectations are shared with families at Back-to-School Night, during
parent conferences, and with the posting of learning expectations from
California State standards in each classroom.

Formal and informal conferences between parents, students, and teachers
take place throughout the school year. During formal parent conferences
which students are invited to attend, teachers explain the student's
learning progress. Anchor papers and student work are presented to help
identify areas of strengths and weaknesses. The results of the previous
year's CAT-6 and CST are explained to help parents understand their
child's performance. Learning goals for the next trimester are set and
strategies are suggested to parents that can be implemented at home to
reinforce the school curriculum. Informally, students are provided
regular feedback on their learning progress with results of assessments
shared.

Student progress is reported on standards-based report cards and weekly
and monthly progress reports. The report card is available in the
dominant languages of the school. Translators are available to
facilitate communication.

Assessment results are communicated to members of the community through
parent advisory committees such as School Site Council, English Language
Advisory Committee, School Advisory Committee, and Monterey Vista PTA.
The School Accountability Report Card is available to community members
upon request.

Question #4

Monterey Vista understands the importance of articulating our success
with other schools. Our school's achievements are shared with a range of
district committees including site leadership teams, School Site
Councils, school principals and administrators, and the Garvey PTA
Council.

Our principal plays an important role in reporting school performance
and achievement gains at district management meetings. He shares
information about programs being implemented that have benefited our
students. Arrangements can then be made for our staff members to present
information to other schools.

At district grade level meetings, our teachers have an opportunity to
discuss successful programs and strategies with colleagues from other
schools. Teachers can serve as peer coaches to share instructional
methods with other teachers in the district.

Our school's performance data is published in the Los Angeles Times
newspaper and can also be accessed in a related website. News articles
in the local *Cascade* and other-language local newspapers inform
readers of academic and enrichment programs, school events and academic
achievement.

In a new program to be implemented this spring, upper grade teachers and
students will visit the intermediate feeder school with the goal of
dialoguing with the staff/student body to ensure that our students will
continue to be challenged as they move on to the intermediate school.

**Part V -- Curriculum and Instruction**

Question #1

Monterey Vista students are engaged in a comprehensive core program with
extensions of learning through extra-curricular activities.

In language arts, emphasis is on word analysis, reading comprehension,
literacy response and analysis, and writing. Literature circles, choral
and guided reading, word walls, onset and rimes for word analysis are
just a few instructional strategies used by teachers. Houghton Mifflin
is the state-adopted text used to support the language arts strands.

Number sense, algebra and functions; measurement and geometry,
statistics, data analysis and probability, and mathematical reasoning
are standards addressed in the state-adopted Harcourt text used in
grades K-5. Sixth graders use the McDougal Littell *Mathematics Concepts
and Skills* which co-ordinates with the feeder middle school. Math
games, manipulatives, and visual materials are used to assist in
teaching mathematical concepts. Math tutoring and math academy are
available. In addition, application of math to real life situations and
a chess tournament make math fun.

Students study earth, life, physical sciences, and the scientific method
in science using the state-adopted text by Houghton Mifflin. Primary
teachers provide thematic units in science. Learning lifecycles is
brought to life by students raising silkworms and tadpoles. Primary
grades grow plants as part of their science lessons. Upper grade
students participate individually or in small groups using the
scientific method to create projects in the annual Science Fair.
Annually, fifth and sixth grade students attend Camp Oakes Outdoor
Science Education in Big Bear. Students learn to value their
environment, appreciate native animals, and engage in pond studies.

History, culture, ethics, geography, social and political systems,
national identity, democratic heritage, values, rights, responsibilities
and social science skills are studied in the state-adopted Harcourt
Brace Social Studies text used by all grade levels. Yearly Cinco de
Mayo, Chinese New Year and Veteran's Day assemblies bring social science
to life. Students attending Camp Oakes learn about the life of the local
Indian tribe of Big Bear, Indian legends and stories, and hands-on
activities using native plants.

Physical education emphasizes movement skills, self-image, personal and
social development. Health education includes a drug, alcohol and
tobacco resistance program. Students may participate in after school
programs and competitions in basketball, volleyball, and track and
field. For self-image, personal and social development, fifth and 6^th^
graders receive materials and view videos on hygiene and growing up.

English Language Development is emphasized through listening and
speaking, reading, and writing activities using the Hampton Brown *Into
English* program.

Monterey Vista provides a rich music program to all students. Students
in grades K-2 engage in activities that emphasizes rhythms, movement,
and singing. Students in grades 3-6 learn how to play musical
instruments such as keyboards and recorder. Classes perform in two
musical programs that are held each year. Additionally, students may
participate in the school Glee Club or Bell Choir.

Question #2

The Houghton Mifflin Reading series, adopted by Monterey Vista in 2002,
is a research based program that is aligned to the California State
Standards. The series delivers explicit, systematic reading instruction.
In kindergarten through sixth grade, reading success is ensured with a
thorough development of oral language, phonemic awareness, phonics,
reading fluency and comprehension. Reading selections are from
award-winning authors and include selections from all genres. Literature
consists of read-alouds, decodable texts, and content-area selections,
all with proven student appeal. The program addresses the needs of all
students with components including extra support for remediation,
English Language development, and challenge activities for the advanced
learners. Reading skills build on previous knowledge in the scope and
sequence of the program and are revisited and strengthened throughout
the grades. Comprehension strategies and skills are provided with
increasing emphasis as the students move through the grades.

The program has a technology feature that allows teachers to do their
lesson planning on the Houghton Mifflin Lesson Planner CD-Rom. Teachers
can customize existing lessons and activities to meet the needs of their
students. They can also adjust the pacing schedule of lessons to suit
their class. A website is made available for teachers and parents to log
onto for follow through activities.

Question #3

One area of the Monterey Vista mission statement emphasizes that
students become life-long learners and productive members of a global
society. To be a well-rounded person, students need to excel in not only
academic subjects, but also be physically fit. The staff at Monterey
Vista supports physical education because it promotes good health,
self-esteem, social skills, and high academics. In order to coordinate a
sequential curriculum in grades K-6, Monterey Vista implements a
comprehensive physical education program with teachers having knowledge
of the California Physical Education Framework at every grade level.
Teachers follow a grade level matrix with lessons taught in progression.
The six strands of activities include: physical activity; fitness and
wellness; movement skill and movement knowledge; social development and
interaction; self-image and self-realization; and individual excellence.

Students are provided with an opportunity to participate in positive
community activities such as the Monterey Vista cross-country and track
programs which promote fitness through stretching and interval training.
Students compete in city, regional and state events. The ultimate goals
of these programs are to enhance team camaraderie, community spirit, and
self-image. These characteristics are essential for students to be
life-long learners and productive members of a global society.

Question #4

Monterey Vista students have a broad range of academic achievements
ranging from far below basic to advance. In addition, 98% of our
students come from non-English speaking backgrounds. As a result,
teachers implement different instructional methods to accommodate the
needs of each child.

For below grade level students, peer and cross-age tutoring is utilized
for one-on-one instruction. Teachers incorporate multiple strategies
such as group projects, oral presentations, and hands-on learning
activities to address different learning styles and cultural
differences. All students are engaged in a curriculum that recognizes
higher level thinking skills. Students analyze, evaluate, problem solve,
synthesize, and raise questions about subject matter. Advanced students
are given opportunities to excel above standards in either independent
or group activities, such as research projects, that require students to
use a multimedia approach. Through collaboration, students learn how to
investigate and locate information.

Monterey Vista is responsive to the curricular needs of English
learners. Academic instruction is presented using Specially Designed
Academic Instruction in English techniques such as scaffolding, visual
aids, modeling, and role-playing, use of props, realia, Total Physical
Response, and technological software. Bilingual instructional assistants
help provide primary language support and reinforce classroom
instruction. Through hands-on activities, flexible grouping, cross-age
and peer tutoring, small and whole group instruction, teachers meet the
developmental needs of students.

Question #5

This year our school professional development plan is carefully focused
on reading comprehension

and writing strategies. One of the strategies is the use of Thinking
Maps which are graphic organizers.

This helps students to create patterns, causing the brain to consciously
pay attention to one thing at a time

and assist them in applying multiple thinking skills to complex,
multi-step problems; and they are

empowered to use these visual tools for transferring these skills across
the disciplines.

Research-based, the eight types of Thinking Maps correspond to eight
fundamental thinking processes that help students to define context,
describe, compare and contrast, classify, part to whole, sequencing,
cause and effect and seeing analogies. They are used as a common visual
language in the students' learning community for transferring the
thinking process, integrating learning, and for continuously assessing
progress.

Thinking Maps have had a positive impact on student achievement. The
staff has noted improvements in student reading comprehension, retention
of information, and writing skills. Reading and writing scores for the
first trimester have increased in the District Grade Level Assessments.

In addition, Monterey Vista also implements a Reading Counts Software
Program from grades K-6. This is a student-centered reading program
where students read a book from a given list and take an exam after
completion. There is immediate feedback as to the result of the exam
stating the number correct and appropriate student reading level. The
staff have received training with this program.

For the 2003-2004 school year, the teachers will receive training on the
ORCHARD Software Program. This is a tutorial program offered to students
in grades K-6 in both language arts and math. The questions are
standards-based and aligned with the California Achievement and
Standards test. To better serve the diverse learners in our school, the
teachers will be provided strategies in differentiated instruction from
the Houghton Mifflin Company. They are the publishers of the current
language arts series adopted by the school district.

**Part VII -- Assessment Results**

The requirements for the State of California are as follows:

English Language Arts (3 years of California Standards test scores for
Spring 2001, Spring 2002

Spring 2003 for every grade level)

Mathematics (2 years of California Standards test scores for 2002 and
2003 for every grade

level and 3 years of Stanford Achievement Test, 9^th^ edition (SAT9)
scores for 1999, 2000, and

2001).

The following are some of the adjustments in my report due to the
availability of information

from the school district and state:

The state of California informed the schools to present performance
levels in 5 categories (far

basic, below basic, basic, proficient, and advanced) when possible. Some
data for math are

reported as basic, proficient and advanced since they were the ones
available.

There are some data that are not available from the school district and
state and they include the following:

-   For the state scores, only the at or above proficient are available
    for 2002 and 2003 and none for 2001.

-   Scaled Score Standard Deviation for the year 2003 only since the
    state does not have those data from previous years.

-   Mean Scaled Scores for Language Arts for the year 2001 are from SAT
    9 only and the others are from CST.

Tables 1 through Tables 15 provides the required data required by the
State of California
