About This School 

Jackson Elementary School was built in 1948 with five classrooms. It has grown ov= er the years to twenty classrooms, an office area, and a multipurpose room/cafeteria. In addition, we house a Learning Center and three Special= Day Classes for learning disabled, autistic and handicapped students. Current= ly, the enrollment is 456 students in grades K-6.

 

The core educational program provided to Jackson students reflects the Califo= rnia State Adopted Standards. The core curriculum is enhanced by special opportunities, such as Field Trips, Field Days, special music and art instruction, and assemblies.

 

Students in grades K-3 are assessed three times yearly using RESULTS testing from = the California Reading and Literature Project. Grades 4th through 6th are assessed quarterly for Language Arts using the District adopted curriculu= m, Houghton Mifflin California Summative tests. For Math, all grades are assessed quarterly using the MacMillan McGraw-Hill Periodic Assessments. Second through Sixth grade students are assessed annually through the Sta= te STAR test. The School Site Council analyzes the data from these assessments which guide the Single Plan for Student Achievement. Annual improvements = in the educational program through our Single Plan for Student Achievement a= nd Local Educational Area District Plan are expected by the State.

 

Many parents volunteer in their children’s classrooms, including participation in Cougar Pride activities, fund-raisers, and field trips. = Our two parent groups, School Site Council and our parent/teacher organizatio= n, Jackson Unifies Students, Teachers, and Parents, JUSTAP, provide continuo= us and valuable support to the school. Through the support of JUSTAP, we are able to provide instructional programs supporting our current curriculum.=

 

Through our School Based Coordinated Program, Jackson Elementary receives monetary support for our school and for resources to improve our educational progr= am. The School Site Council oversees the expenditure of Single Plan for Stude= nt Achievement funds and other categorical funds. Annually, we conduct a sur= vey to review the program strengths and weaknesses. We are able to develop improvement goals and objectives in writing our Single Plan for Student Achievement.

 

Students with special needs a= re served in a variety of ways. Their classroom teacher, who received traini= ng in English Language Development, serves English Learners as well as a Bilingual Instructional Assistant. Individuals with additional needs are served through our Learning Center, in the regular education classroom wi= th, and if necessary, Resource Specialist support. If an exceptional needs student requires additional support, Special Education services are avail= able through our Amador County Office of Education.

School Description and Mission Statement (School= Year 2008-09) 

School Des= cription and Mission Statement (School Year 2008-09) 

Jackson Elementary School’s mission is to provide a quality educational pro= gram for all students. The school staff helps students develop into lifelong learners who set and achieve goals, think creatively and solve problems, become responsible citizens, and learn practical life skills to succeed in our modern society. We design our academic and instructional program to accomplish our mission. Our staff models responsible actions in day-to-day instruction.

 

Jackson Elementary houses the district’s special education facilities for Amador County students with orthopedic challenges. Our school continues to upgrade its facilities and grounds by painting, resurfacing the playgroun= d, expanding our gardens, and landscaping other parts of the campus.

 

Thanks to our parent organiz= ation, Jackson United Students Teachers and Parents (JUSTAP), we were able to ad= d to our library program, increasing the number of books available to students= and staff.

Opportunities for Parental Involvement (School Y= ear 2008-09) 

Opportunit= ies for Parental Involvement (School Year 2008-09) 

Jackson Elementary provides opportunities for families to participate in a variet= y of activities to support and enrich our school environment. Parents help in = the classroom, chair committees such as our Reading Incentive Program, help w= ith Santa’s Shop, and organize fund-raisers. Periodically, parents participate in Beautification Days, when we improve the school environment through landscaping and other projects. Parents also serve as Parent Patr= ol volunteers in front of the school when students are being dropped off or = are crossing the street. Parents in JUSTAP assist with Cougar Pride awards.

 

We encourage parents to atte= nd functions that recognize and reward their children. Primary grade level teachers appreciate the assistance of parents with special projects and in student learning centers. Parents are vital participants on our SSC and o= ur Student Success teams. SSC members, including school personnel, parents, = and community members, are elected.

III. School Climate 

School Safety Plan (School Year 2008-09)&= nbsp;

This sect= ion provides information about the school's comprehensive safety plan.&n= bsp;

Communication is essential in maintaining a safe school. We wired all classrooms for telephones. We are also able to communicate through our intercom system. = In addition, office staff, yard supervisors, and maintenance personnel carry two-way radios. Classroom teachers use a buddy system—in which each classroom has a buddy class—as part of their classroom management. = They also have assigned duties in case of an emergency.

 

We update emergency site plans and evacuation maps annually and post them throughout the campus. Each classroom has an emergency plan. Fire drill evacuations and “duck and cover” drills are practiced through= out the year. Staff members line up their students at their assigned area on = the playground and provide a quick visual indication of the status of their c= lass by holding up a green or red card. This visual cue is very effective in determining if there is a problem, an injury, or a missing student.<= /o:p>

 

During staff and instruction= al aide meetings, we discuss safety issues and strategies. Yard supervisors = meet monthly with the site administrators to discuss issues on the playground. There are staff meetings every other week and weekly staff bulletins to k= eep everyone informed.

Types of Services Funded (Fiscal Year 2008-09) 

This sec= tion provides information about the programs and supplemental services that are available at the school and funded through either categorical or other sour= ces. 

The state of California is t= he primary source of district funding. The district receives funds for basic operations such as salaries, books, school supplies, copiers, and repairs based on school attendance figures. Student absences, regardless of the r= eason, seriously affect our school budget.

 

Many of our essential progra= ms and all of our extra-curricular programs were eliminated by the State of California’s budget shortfall.

Standardized Testing and Reporting Program  

The Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Program consis= ts of several key components, including the California Standards Tests (CSTs); the California Modified Assessment (CMA), and = the California Alternate Performance Assessment (CAPA). The CSTs show how well students are doing in relation to the state content standards. The CSTs include English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics in grades two through eleven; science in grades five, eight, and nine through eleven; and history-social science in grades eight, and ten through eleven. The CAPA includes ELA, mathematics, and science in grades t= wo through eleven, and for science for grades five, eight, and ten. The CAPA is given to those students with significant cognitive disabilities whose disabilities prevent them from taking either the CSTs<= /span> with accommodations or modifications or the CMA with accommodations. The CMA includes ELA and mathematics for grades three through eight and science in grade five and is an alternate assessment that is based on modifiedachievement standards. The CMA is designed to assess those students whose disabilities preclude them from achieving grade-level proficiency on an assessment of the California content standards with or without accommodations. Student scores= are reported as performance levels. Detailed information regarding the STAR Pro= gram results for each grade and performance level, including the percent of stud= ents not tested, can be found on the CDE Sta= ndardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Results Web site. Program information regarding the STAR Program can be found in the Expla= ining 2008 STAR Program Summary Results to the Public guide. Note: Scores are= not shown when the number of students tested is ten or less, either because the number of students in this category is too small for statistical accuracy o= r to protect student privacy. In no case shall any group score be reported that would deliberately or inadvertently make public the score or performance of= any individual student.

Academic Performance Index 

The Academic Performance Index (API) = is an annual measure of the academic performance and progress of schools in California. API scores range from 200 to 1,000, with a statewide target of = 800. Detailed information about the API can be found on the CDE Academic Performance Index (API) Web page. 

Academic Performance Index Ranks – Three-Y= ear Comparison 

This table displays the school’s statewide and similar schools API ranks. The statewide API rank ranges from= one to ten. A statewide rank of one means that the school has an API score in t= he lowest ten percent of all schools in the state, while a statewide rank of t= en means that the school has an API score in the highest ten percent of all schools in the state. The similar schools API rank reflects how a school compares to 100 statistically matched “similar schools.” A simi= lar schools rank of one means that the school’s academic performance is comparable to the lowest performing ten schools of the 100 similar schools, while a similar schools rank of ten means that the school’s academic performance is better than at least 90 of the 100 similar schools.&n= bsp;

Admission Requirements for California Public Universities

University of California

Admission requirements for the Univer= sity of California (UC) follow guidelines set forth in the Master Plan, which requi= res that the top one-eighth of the state's high school graduates, as well as th= ose transfer students who have successfully completed specified college work, be eligible for admission to the UC. These requirements are designed to ensure that all eligible students are adequately prepared for University-level wor= k. For general admissions requirements please visit the Gene= ral Admissions Information Web page (Outside Source).

California State University

Admission requirements for the Califo= rnia State University (CSU) use three factors to determine eligibility. They are specific high school courses; grades in specified courses and test scores; = and graduation from high school. Some campuses have higher standards for partic= ular majors or students who live outside the local campus area. Because of the number of students who apply, a few campuses have higher standards (supplementary admission criteria) for all applicants. Most CSU campuses utilize local admission guarantee policies for students who graduate or transfer from high schools and colleges that are historically served by a C= SU campus in that region. For general admissions requirements please visit the= Undergraduate Admission &= amp; Requirements Web page (Outside Source).

2008-2009  3 days

2007-2008 20 days

2006-2007 12 days

In order to build our learni= ng environment, we continue to expand our knowledge and use of technology. Jackson Elementary School annually has three days funded by the state for staff training in curriculum and instructional strategies. The school and= district provide funds for attendance at conferences. The curriculum office provid= es additional in-service opportunities. We receive teaching assistance throu= gh the district’s PAR program. Our teachers also attend grade-level meetings to talk and plan together.

XIII. National Assessment of Educational Progress 

National Assessment of Educational Progress 

Note: Only a sample group of Californ= ia's schools and districts participate in the NAEP testing cycle. Therefore, students in any particular school or district may not be included in these results. The NAEP reflects state test results and is not reflective of eith= er the LEA or the individual school. Comparisons of student performance on the NAEP and student performance on the Standardized Testing and Reporting (STA= R) Program assessments cannot be made without an understanding of the key differences between the two assessment programs. For example, the NAEP only assesses grades four, eight and twelve and for long-term trends assesses gr= ades nine, thirteen, and seventeen. Additionally, the NAEP only provides state t= est results for grades four and eight. The California Standards Tests (CSTs) are based on a different set of standards than = the NAEP assessments. For example, the NAEP is not aligned with California acad= emic content and achievement standards and, therefore, does not necessarily refl= ect the curriculum and instruction to which students are exposed in the classro= om. The NAEP assesses reading and writing separately, while the CSTs assess English-language arts (ELA), encompassing reading as well as writing conventions, spelling, and grammar. Scores on the CSTs= and other assessments are not directly comparable to those on NAEP. The averages and percentages presented are estimates based on samples of studen= ts rather than on entire populations. Finally, the questions students respond = to are only a sample of the knowledge and skills covered by the NAEP framework= s. Information on the differences between NAEP and CST can be found on the CDE= National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) Web page.
