PART I ‑ ELIGIBILITY CERTIFICATION

The signatures on the first page of this application certify that each
of the statements below concerning the school\'s eligibility and
compliance with U.S. Department of Education, Office of Civil Rights
(OCR) requirements is true and correct.

1\. The school has some configuration that includes grades K-12.
(Schools with one principal, even K-12 schools, must apply as an entire
school.)

2\. The school has not been in school improvement status or been
identified by the state as \"persistently dangerous\" within the last
two years. To meet final eligibility, the school must meet the state's
adequate yearly progress requirement in the 2003-2004 school year.

3\. If the school includes grades 7 or higher, it has foreign language
as a part of its core curriculum.

4\. The school has been in existence for five full years, that is, from
at least September 1998.

5 The nominated school or district is not refusing the OCR access to
information necessary to investigate a civil rights complaint or to
conduct a district‑wide compliance review.

6\. The OCR has not issued a violation letter of findings to the school
district concluding that the nominated school or the district as a whole
has violated one or more of the civil rights statutes. A violation
letter of findings will not be considered outstanding if the OCR has
accepted a corrective action plan from the district to remedy the
violation.

7\. The U.S. Department of Justice does not have a pending suit alleging
that the nominated school, or the school district as a whole, has
violated one or more of the civil rights statutes or the Constitution\'s
equal protection clause.

**PART III ‑ SUMMARY**

**Provide a brief, coherent narrative snapshot of the school in one page
(approximately 475 words). Include at least a summary of the school's
mission or vision in the statement.**

Eagle Rock Elementary School is a large Title I school with close to
1100 students in Pre-K through 6th grade located approximately 10
minutes from downtown Los Angeles. The original building dates back to
1917 and many of our students have parents and grandparents who attended
this school in years past. We are very proud of the fact that our school
is extremely diverse. Ethnically, our largest population is Hispanic
with a "United Nations" of ethnicities among the remainder of the
students. We are also diverse in our abilities. We have a large special
needs population with students who have learning disabilities, mental
retardation, autism, emotional disturbance and a range of other
disabilities. We have English Language Learners, English only students,
economically disadvantaged students, students with average intelligence
and a strong gifted program including approximately 27 highly gifted
students who have been identified with an I.Q. of 145 or higher. Our
campus houses two small magnet programs which consist of 53 gifted/high
ability students and the 27 highly gifted students. We are diverse in
our interests. We have a number of teachers who have taken courses in
oceanography, one class even sails the high seas in the "Tall Ships
Program". We have a computer lab and all students have access to
computers not only in the lab, but also in every classroom. In addition,
we are a Prototype School in the Arts. On a rotating basis, our students
get 12 weeks of visual arts, 12 weeks of theatre arts and 12 weeks of
dance. All primary grade students have vocal music one day per week and
upper grade students may participate in orchestra. Currently, we have
125 students in our orchestra, making it the largest in the Los Angeles
Unified School District. All fourth grade students have dance every week
through the California Dance Institute, which has fashioned its program
after the famous National Dance Institute Program in New York, founded
by Jacques D'Amboise to introduce the Arts to inner city children.

Our Nutrition Program is very important to the success of our
disadvantaged students. We are currently part of a pilot program which
offers all students a "second chance" breakfast during the morning
recess time. Students who arrive late to school in the morning or who
are not ready to eat before school have a "second chance" to eat
breakfast.

Many parents are involved in our PTA, which raises funds to support our
arts program, including the Los Angeles Philharmonic in Residency
Program, computer lab, and offsite experiential learning excursions.

We also have weekly vocal music for our upper grade students provided by
the Santa Cecilia Choir. Both Santa Cecilia and the California Dance
Institute provide weekly after school sessions for students with a keen
interest and talent in dance or vocal music.

A few short blocks from Eagle Rock Elementary school is the campus of
Occidental College. We have been "adopted" by Occidental and are
developing a relationship with certain departments of the school.
Occidental student teachers observe at our school and often do their
student teaching practicum here. Several Occidental professors send
their children to our school and one Theatre Arts professor has
developed a drama workshop class in which his university students earn
credit for conducting drama workshops with our teachers and students.

We also have a corporate adopter from our community, Nestle USA Corp.,
which provides us with employee volunteers who are pen pals to our
fourth graders, a special, educational trip for our culminating sixth
graders, funds to help support our library and *Reading is Fundamental*
(RIF) book distributions.

Eagle Rock Elementary has established a "Culture of Excellence" which
insures high expectations and standards for all students and teachers.
This is achieved through professional collaboration at and across grade
levels. Instruction is differentiated for special needs, English
Learners, educationally disadvantaged and to challenge our gifted and
highly gifted students.

Our school vision states that, "The staff, parents and community at
Eagle Rock Elementary School...are involved in creating and committed to
implementing an instructional program that provides a positive nurturing
climate which stimulates maximum academic and social growth, inspires
appreciation and respect for diversity and empowers all children to
participate successfully in a changing society."

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

**1. Describe in one page the meaning of the school's assessment results
in reading (language arts or English) and mathematics in such a way that
someone not intimately familiar with the tests can easily understand
them.**

Eagle Rock Elementary School uses a variety of assessment tools. The
results of our assessments highlight areas of strength and weakness and
drive our instructional program. In 1999 the State of California passed
the Public Schools Accountability Act, which included a component called
the Academic Performance Index (API). This is a numeric score between
200 and 1000 that reflects a school's performance on a nationally normed
test, originally Stanford 9 and currently is the California Achievement
Test or CAT6, which is given annually in California to grades 2 -- 11.
Other performance indicators, the California Standards Test and
attendance rates are factored in and schools receive scores between 200
and 1000, in addition, there is a ranking of 1 to 10, lowest to highest,
that compares schools statewide and also to schools of similar
demographic characteristics. An API score of 800 is the growth target
for all schools in the state. This year Eagle Rock Elementary reached an
API score of 806, which exceeds this target, all subgroups showed
significant growth and a state ranking of 8, similar schools ranking of
10. According to the guidelines of *No Child Left Behind* we have met
the criteria for Annual Yearly Progress (AYP). The following is a
"snapshot" of the API growth at Eagle Rock over the last three years:

2000 -- 01 2001 -- 02 2002 - 03

API 755 API 765 API 806

Growth +37 Growth +12\* Growth +41

Numerically significant subgroups growth & API:

Filipino +22 791 +46 837\* +34 855\*

Hispanic +56 698 +4 702 +51 757\*

White +25 835 +21 851\* +21 867\*

Disadvantaged +38 688 +21 711\* +36 747

\*Some scores were adjusted midyear accounting for the discrepancy in
growth numbers

The Stanford 9 and CAT6 norm-referenced tests provide content cluster
reports for teachers indicating specific areas of strength and weakness
on the test and the numbers of students who fell in those categories.
For example, if a teacher sees that under the category of "Mechanics" a
large number of students scored below average in "Capitalization" this
would indicate that the teacher needs to examine the instructional time
and delivery for that area. Students taking these tests are compared to
other students in the same grade across the nation, at their own school
and within their own classroom.

California has established rigorous state content standards and the STAR
(Standardized Testing and Reporting program) has been phasing in more
questions that are criterion referenced to the California State
Standards for reading, language arts, mathematics, and in 5th grade,
science. Since our curriculum and instruction follow these rigorous
standards, we feel that this is a more accurate assessment of what our
students have learned over the course of a year. Now instruction and
assessments are aligned to the standards.

The Los Angeles Unified School District has adopted the *Open Court
Reading Program* across the district. This program has assessments
approximately every 6 weeks in fluency, vocabulary, spelling, skills,
comprehension and writing. Our literacy coach facilitates the analysis
of this data through assisting teachers in the ongoing development of
"action plans". These plans address the academic needs of students.
Students who score "intensive", significantly below on *Open Court
Reading* assessment benchmark for grade level, receive daily
remediation. Students who are considered "strategic", close to meeting
benchmark, also receive pre-teaching and re-teaching. Our "benchmark"
students are considered at grade level and our "challenge", students who
are testing at the highest level, are given advanced studies.

Our Harcourt Brace and McDougal-Littell Math Programs also have
quarterly assessments schoolwide. Results are scored and can be analyzed
by the math coach and teacher to determine future emphasis of
instruction. All of these programs are aligned to the California State
Content Standards.

Currently all special education students are being tested with the same
standardized tests as their age appropriate peers. Only the most
severely disabled of our students are exempt from this. Last year we had
only two students who took the alternative assessment CAPA, California
Alternative Performance Assessment.

**2. Show in one-half page (approximately 200 words) how the school uses
assessment data to understand and improve student and school
performance.**

Teachers meet one-to-one with administrators and literacy and math
coaches and as colleagues at grade level meetings to discuss the data
they have received from Stanford 9, CAT6, California Standards Test or
publishers' unit assessments. With standardized test results, teachers
can identify content areas in which their students consistently had
difficulty. Working as a team, teachers will analyze this data to
improve instruction. Our literacy coach and math coach work closely with
teachers to examine the results of the unit assessments. Students are
identified as "intensive", "strategic", or "benchmark" and then an
action plan is developed to address their individual needs. Teachers
have daily Independent Work Time (IWT) during which the teacher works
with small groups for remediation or challenge those who are at
benchmark. Our special education Resource Specialist Teachers support
classes which contain clusters of students with learning disabilities.
They and their assistants use IWT to pre-teach or re-teach concepts that
are difficult for these students. Teachers who have concerns about a
student's performance on assessments or on classroom assignments may
refer the student to our Student Success Team which meets twice a week.
The team consists of teachers, the school psychologist, nurse,
administrators and the student's parents to determine effective
strategies and/or modifications that may help the student succeed.

Standardized test scores along with other forms of assessment results
enable us to pinpoint students who need intervention classes. We have
traditionally provided intervention classes after school in the Fall, on
6 consecutive Saturdays, in the Spring and during 4 to 6 week sessions
in the Summer. Students whose standardized testing data indicates "Below
Basic" or "Far Below Basic", those with a rubric score of "1" (not
proficient at grade level standards) in Reading and/or Math on their
report card receive this additional assistance, as well as, students who
are in the "intensive" group on unit tests.

Special Education students are regularly assessed with individual
assessments such as the Kaufman Test of Educational Achievement,
Woodcock Johnson Version 3 or the Brigance Achievement Test and the
goals on their Individual Education Plans (IEPs) are adjusted
accordingly.

English Language Learners are held to the ELL standards for making
adequate progress in advancing at least one English Language Development
level per school year. They do take the above-mentioned assessments
along with our other students but rubric scoring is based on the ELL
standards. English as a Second Language instruction is given every day
although all of our ELL students are in a Structured English Immersion
Program.

**3. Describe in one-half page how the school communicates student
performance, including assessment data, to parents, students, and the
community.**

The standardized test report is mailed home to every parent, usually
during the summer. This report shows their child's results on each of
the subtests and then interprets for the parent how their child
performed in comparison to other students in the same grade, across the
nation. In the Fall our teachers have parent conferences to discuss
results with all parents and to help them understand what these results
mean for their child. Translation is provided for non-English speaking
parents wherever possible. Teachers use stanine scores from standardized
tests to identify below average students, 1,2, & 3 stanines; average
students with 4,5, & 6 stanines and gifted/high achieving students with
7,8, & 9 stanines. Teachers are available throughout the year to revisit
the data from assessments and to provide ongoing data. We have formal
reporting and conferencing periods three times per year.

Teachers work with all students so that they understand what is expected
of them. Our teachers, under the direction of the literacy coach, have
rewritten the California Content Standards in "kid friendly" language.
Students create Criteria Charts (standards to be met in that specific
assignment) before assignments begin and use a rubric to understand how
their work will be scored. Standardized test scores are not emphasized
with students at this age.

Parents receive newsletters in Spanish and English describing the
assessment data and implications for parent activities at home. In
addition, we have a school website with some assessment data and the Los
Angeles Unified School District and the California Department of
Education have websites that go into great detail in presenting
assessment information for all schools. Beginning in 1999 the State of
California instituted the "School Accountability Report Card" which is
an annual report to the community regarding test results, student and
teacher attendance, opportunities for parental involvement and other
significant school information.

**4. Describe in one-half page how the school will share its successes
with other schools.**

We have already received email from across the country inquiring about
our "kid friendly" standards in language arts that are posted on our
website. Our literacy coach, along with a cadre of teachers took the
California Standards for Language Arts by grade level and translated
them into "kid friendly" language. They are posted in classrooms for
students to refer to. Teachers can use them as a pedagogical tool to
insure that students understand what it is that they are learning. As a
staff, we have been studying and applying the *9 Principles of Learning*
set out by Lauren Resnick and the Institute for Learning, particularly
the principles of Clear Expectations, Academic Rigor and Accountable
Talk. We hosted a Learning Walk here at our school for about 25
principals from area elementary schools in order to demonstrate the
Principles of Learning in the actual classroom setting. Our literacy
coach has invited teachers and coaches from other schools to visit our
school and observe lessons using "best practices". About four years ago
we hosted the California Association for the Gifted Conference drawing
approximately 50 teachers from all over California to our classes for
identified highly gifted, gifted or high achieving students.

The Los Angeles Unified School District is divided up into 11
"mini-districts" in an attempt to make this huge district more
accessible. Principals meet on a monthly basis to collaborate and share
ideas about successes. We try to work with other schools with similar
demographics to share strategies that have worked at our campus and vice
versa. In addition, 5 teachers from Bernice Carlson Home School, who
work with seriously ill students in their homes, have attended our state
"Buy-Back" staff development days to keep current with instructional
practices.

Many student teachers from Occidental College and California State
University, Los Angeles, observe and/or do their student teaching
practicum here at our school. We collaborate, as a staff, and share
ideas about what has been successful at our school with these emerging
new teachers. They will carry on these traditions when they become
teachers.

PART V -- CURRICULUM AND INSTRUCTION

**1. Describe in one page the school's curriculum.** Our entire
curriculum here at Eagle Rock is based on the high content standards
established by the State of California. All students, regardless of
language, special needs or ability are held to the same academic
standards and have access to the core curriculum. Some moderate or
severe disabled students receive instruction using the "Alternative
Curriculum". The Reading/Language Arts Curriculum is based on the
California Content Standards for each grade level. This is presented in
the entire Los Angeles Unified School District through the use of the
SRA/McGraw Hill *Open Court Reading Program*. This Districtwide mandate
has been a benefit to all schools in our area. Substitute teachers are
all familiar with this program and can easily pick up where teachers
left off. There is a high turnover rate in our District and students can
virtually step into this reading program throughout the District. We
have a strong writing program that is coordinated throughout the grade
levels. In Kindergarten students learn letter recognition and formation,
phonemic awareness, sounds and begin to write sentences with temporary
spelling. As students progress through the grades they learn paragraph
and essay writing through "power writing". By 6^th^ grade they can write
500 word essays in a variety of genres. Our District tests each grade
level from first grade up on the District Performance Assignments, that
require the students to answer a writing prompt that illustrates what
the students can write independently. This is given to grades 1 through
6 in the Spring.

In mathematics, younger students begin with number recognition, number
sense, one-to-one correspondence and then move to basic addition,
subtraction, multiplication and division, problem solving, probability,
statistics and math reasoning. All students are encouraged to articulate
their reasoning and to find their own methods for solving meaningful
problems. Combining the use of manipulatives, situation-rich problems
and small collaborative work groups has made it possible to teach
mathematical procedures and concepts in a meaningful way.

Science instruction covers not only the historic significance of
scientific discoveries but also guides students through experimentation
to discover answers to their own hypotheses. Students at all grade
levels explore earth science, life science and physical science.
Students have hands-on opportunities with science manipulative kits and
participate in our annual Science Fair. There is a California Science
Standards test that will be given to all fifth graders for the first
time this year.

All students must attain a grade of "3" on a rubric scoring system which
means "proficient" in that grade level standard in order to pass on to
the next grade level. English Language Learners will be graded based on
their current English Language Development level, 1 - 5. Special
Education students are graded based on their Individualized Education
Plan (IEP) goals, as well as, the grade level standards at which they
are functioning. These students have access to the same curriculum as
their peers but, the presentation of the curriculum has been modified in
a way to make it comprehensible to them. Gifted students may be
challenged to do 7th grade algebra in our 6th grade math program. Our
gifted students are challenged with more in-depth studies of the same
curriculum, breadth of knowledge, more complex concepts, creativity of
presentation and response, and novelty of ideas.

The Social Studies Standards address different issues at different grade
levels. Kindergarteners through second graders learn about community
helpers, career awareness, our school and our community. By third grade,
students study about the City of Los Angeles, its history, landmarks and
government; fourth graders study California history and learn about the
mission system, the Gold Rush and the state governmental process. Fifth
Graders learn about American history and sixth graders study ancient
civilizations.

All grade levels study the Arts and use the California Standards in the
Arts. They are graded in Visual Art, Music, Theatre Arts and Dance. Our
students keep art journals and learn the vocabulary of each discipline.

Physical Education includes a required curriculum which must be taught
for a minimum of 200 minutes over a two week period. Students in Fifth
Grade take the President's Physical Fitness test. All students are
taught basic games, rules and techniques, as well as lifelong fitness
lessons and nutrition. Students learn team sports and good
sportsmanship. Students with special needs have small classes with
Adaptive Physical Education Instruction to help improve balance,
throwing and catching skills, eye hand coordination, etc.

**2. (Elementary Schools) Describe in one-half page the school's reading
curriculum, including a description of why the school chose this
particular approach to reading.**

Los Angeles Unified School District's reform movement in reading
instituted *Open Court Reading* in Kindergarten through second grades in
2000, middle and upper grades in 2001 and sixth grade in 2002. Our
teachers received a mandatory, 5-day training in the implementation of
the reading program at their grade levels. More than 1/3 of our teachers
continued the optional advanced training. This involved a week of
training in the summer and an additional 80 hours of training provided
on site after school and on Saturdays provided by the Literacy coach.
Eagle Rock Elementary is unique in the high numbers of teachers who
participated in the additional training for three years. Through this
core group of teachers a collaborative style has been established among
all grade levels.

During this time period our school began a professional development
focus on teaching writing, as this was determined to be our area of
greatest need. We have instituted school-wide writing portfolios and our
teachers are becoming excellent writing teachers; we seek to reach grade
level standards through common writing strategies and tools. Teachers
have worked collaboratively to design graphic organizers that are used
throughout the grade levels. We have seen tremendous growth in our
student writing through this collaboration and across grade level
articulation.

Our reading program has assessments five times a year. We look at our
data by teacher, student and grade level, analyze it and work together
to improve instruction. Our goal is for each child to read and write at
or above grade level. We sincerely believe that this is possible and
each teacher acts on this belief. We use our data to pinpoint which
students need remediation. We have an instructional period, Independent
Work Time, that addresses the needs of our at-risk learners, and
provides challenges for our advanced students. We provide after school,
Saturday and summer intervention programs to give students opportunities
to reach grade level standards.

Our full time Literacy coach provides assistance to teachers through
observations, demonstration lessons and training. She continues to guide
the teachers in the implementation of the reading program, provides
leadership in the implementation of the writing program and assists in
interpreting data and goal setting. In addition, she supports new and/or
struggling teachers. We believe that our strongest assets in Language
Arts are a coordinated reading program, a school-wide writing program
and a school culture that breeds collaboration and a belief that all
students can succeed in Language Arts. The addition of the Literacy
coach over the last three years has been an invaluable tool for
constructively assisting teachers.

**3. Describe in one-half page one other curriculum area of the school's
choice and show how it relates to essential skills and knowledge based
on the school's mission.**

Mathematics is an important curricular area at Eagle Rock Elementary
School. Our District has established a common textbook adoption, as was
done in Reading, in order to provide more consistent instruction for our
very transient population of students. All students are provided access
to and instruction on the California State Content Standards. The most
valuable aspect of the Content Standards is that they provide equality
in instruction. Every child in public school is guaranteed a rigorous
education; therefore the expectation at Eagle Rock Elementary is that
all students can succeed. As a result, the faculty and administration
embrace standards-based instruction and put great faith in the
standards-based curriculum adopted by the school. With years of
consistency and dedicated application of research-based teaching
standards student performance at Eagle Rock Elementary has steadily
increased year after year.

Eagle Rock has a diverse population; this includes Title I, English
Language Learners, Special Education, Gifted and Highly Gifted students
who are from a variety of ethnic groups. All students, participating in
every program at the school are provided with the same access to the
same content standards via the same curriculum. If a child's needs are
not met, teachers are able to gain support from coaches and will
supplement the curriculum to meet the needs of each student.

Mathematics is presented with hands-on manipulatives to provide concrete
objects to enable students to grasp mathematical concepts. They are
encouraged to articulate their reasoning and to find their own methods
for solving meaningful real-life problems. Assignments may be adjusted
in length or complexity to meet individual needs. Special needs students
may need to tackle smaller numbers of problems at a time in order to
avoid being overwhelmed. Our advanced students have moved into seventh
grade Algebra, probability and statistics to challenge their already
solid foundation in elementary mathematics.

Our Math coach provides teachers with a coaching model that involves
observation, demonstration lessons and ongoing professional development
training. New and/or struggling teachers are able to meet with the Math
coach to review instructional strategies and to review data to drive
instruction.

**4. Describe in one-half page the different instructional methods the
school uses to improve student learning.**

Teachers use a variety of modalities to address the different needs and
learning styles of their students. Students who are learning English,
are educationally disadvantaged or have special needs may need a more
concrete manner of presentation in order to understand concepts.
Teachers may use pictures, realia (real, authentic objects),
manipulatives or dramatic presentations to enable students to have a
clearer understanding of concepts.

All teachers use a directed teaching model for the introduction of new
concepts and skills. Students are later provided with opportunities for
independent practice, remediation or in-depth studies of the concepts.

Teacher Assistants, Special Education Assistants, Eagle Rock High School
Student Tutors, and volunteers help to provide small group and
individual practice for students.

Our Special Education department is gradually implementing a change in
delivery of instruction for its students. Beginning with our Resource
Program, which used to be strictly a "pull out" program where students
went to the Resource Room to work with an assistant and a teacher for
small group instruction. Now we are implementing a "collaborative model"
in which the teacher and the assistant go into the classrooms ("pull in"
model) to plan with the classroom teacher to pre-teach, re-teach and
remediate students who have learning disabilities. They are also able to
work with non-special needs students or those who have not yet been
assessed as having learning disabilities. Our Special Day Class teachers
are also giving their students longer and longer opportunities to
participate in the general education setting. Students with special
needs will now have more of an opportunity to interact with age
appropriate peers and be exposed academically and socially to
appropriate grade level curriculum and behavior.

Some teachers use a peer coaching model to improve their delivery of
instruction. We have two National Board Certified Teachers on staff who
share their expertise with colleagues and provide Beginning Teacher
Support & Assessment (BTSA) Training for new and probationary teachers.

Teachers use cooperative groups as a way for stronger students to
provide assistance and modeling to other students and to help all
students feel that they are successful in solving a problem or creating
a project.

Teachers with Structured English Immersion classes use Specially
Designed Academic Instruction in English (SDAIE) strategies with
students who do not speak English proficiently. They are given
explanations or clarifying information in Spanish or Tagalog with the
help of bilingual teachers or assistants as needed.

Every teacher at Eagle Rock Elementary School has received professional
development training on how to differentiate instruction to meet the
needs of their diverse students. Gifted instruction involves accelerated
pacing, greater breadth and depth of subject matter and instruction that
encourages the critical thinking skills of students.

**5. Describe in one-half page the school's professional development
program and its impact on improving student achievement.**

Eagle Rock Elementary's professional development program has been
greatly improved with the support of the State of California and the Los
Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), which have provided us with
much needed set aside time and some additional funding. The State of
California has provided us with three days outside of our regular
instructional time with additional pay from the state for teachers'
voluntary participation in professional development. The LAUSD has
implemented "banked-time" days on Tuesdays for one hour. Students have
an additional 10 minutes of instructional time everyday which is then
"banked" and students leave school one hour earlier on Tuesdays to
enable teachers to have professional development training within their
regular onsite contractual work day. Fifty percent of these banked-time
meetings must follow the mandated agendas of the District while the
other fifty percent can be decided at the local school site.

At Eagle Rock we have not only used this resource of time, but also the
expertise of our Literacy coach and Math coach to provide a consistent,
sequential professional development model. After a needs assessment it
was determined that our teachers particularly valued time spent with
grade level peers planning, creating lessons and tools to implement
lessons and sharing ideas that were successful in their own classrooms.
We try to balance our professional development time between direct
instruction on content standards and method of delivery of instruction
particularly in the areas of mathematics, reading and writing with grade
level planning to facilitate application of this material. Other content
areas such as science, social studies, health, physical education and
the arts are addressed less frequently. In addition, teachers are given
regular opportunities to meet at grade levels and set their own agendas
to meet the specific needs of their grade level. On occasion during the
year, teachers discuss a continuum of subject strands across grade
levels in a vertical planning format to insure complete coverage of a
subject area without too much overlap or repetition. In the past
teachers would teach about dinosaurs year after year from one grade
level to the next, while other scientific concepts are ignored.

At Eagle Rock we believe that one of the most important factors in our
continued improvement in student achievement is our ongoing professional
collaboration. Our teachers have shared ideas that work, strategies for
students that are at risk and common tools to use such as graphic
organizers. There is no question that this collaborative model along
with the professional expertise of coaches in math and reading and other
presenters have contributed greatly to our level of instructional
expertise and in turn the increased level of achievement that our
students have made through consistent, sequential, organized instruction
and practice. Our assessment results that follow are evidence that our
professional development time has made a tremendous impact on our
student achievement.

***Performance Standards***\
Performance standards identify levels of student achievement based on a
demonstrated degree of mastery of the academic content standards tested.
California uses five performance standards for its California Standards
Tests:

-   Advanced performance in relation to the academic content standards
    tested

-   Proficient performance in relation to the academic content standards
    tested

-   Basic performance in relation to the academic content standards
    tested

-   Below Basic performance in relation to the academic content
    standards tested

-   Far-Below Basic performance in relation to the academic content
    standards tested

The performance standards for each grade and content area are based on
scaled scores that range between approximately 200 and 500. The score
dividing the basic scores from below-basic is 300 for every grade and
content area. The score dividing basic scores from proficient scores is
350 for every grade and content area.

***Quartiles***

-   \% Scoring Above 75th NPR is the percent of students in this group
    that scored above where 75% of the students in the national sample
    scored. If this group looked like the national sample, this number
    would be 25. A number greater than 25 indicates that the group had
    scores better than the national sample. A number less than 25
    indicates that the group did not do as well as the national sample.

-   \% Scoring At or Above 50th NPR is the percent of students in this
    group that scored at or above where 50% of the students in the
    national sample scored. This is the percentage of students
    considered as scoring at or above their grade level on this test.

-   \% Scoring Above 25th NPR is the percent of students in this group
    that scored above where 25% of the students in the national sample
    scored. If this group looked like the national sample, this number
    would be 75.

**Addressing disparity among subgroups on standardized tests:**

-   **[English Language Learners]{.underline}** -- these students are
    not performing as well on standardized tests as other subgroups due
    to the fact that their English skills range from non-English through
    four levels of limited English and they are taking the tests in
    English. We are addressing this by providing intervention classes
    and a strong English as a Second Language program.

-   **[Hispanic students]{.underline}** -- this subgroup includes the
    largest number of limited English students in our school, as well
    as, the highest number of economically disadvantaged students,
    therefore, the reason for the disparity would be the same as for
    English Language Learners and economically disadvantage students.

-   **[Filipino]{.underline}** -- This subgroup approaches the
    achievement levels of the English only students. The Filipino
    population tends to report that their children have been brought up
    speaking English and not Tagalog or Illocano. We do see a slight
    disparity which we attribute to the fact that these students are, in
    fact, exposed to another language and grammar structure in the home
    even though they are being raised as "English only" students.

-   **[Economically Disadvantaged]{.underline} --** It can be seen that
    these students achieve at a slightly lower level than the
    non-economically disadvantaged students. We see this as a product of
    the students' lack of exposure to enrichment activities, parent's
    lack of educational background to support the students, and
    home-life issues such as poor nutrition and a higher mobility rate.
    Students are given additional assistance through intervention
    programs and teacher assistants in the classrooms.

-   **[Gifted --]{.underline}** Overall, our gifted students score
    higher on standardized tests. We would expect this to be true due to
    identified giftedness, high achievement and/or high I.Q. scores.
    Students are challenged with creative, in-depth and complex
    assignments.
