Orchard SchoolSARC 3

Principal’s MessageWelcome to Orchard School. As one of the oldest teaching institutions in California, Orchard began as a school for settlers in 1856. With more than a century-and-a-half of academic history, we continue to educate today’s young minds in becoming tomorrow’s leaders. Orchard blends teaching and technology to imbue students with the 21st century skills required for future success.

School Mission StatementAll students are valued and have

the capacity to reach their full potential through an innovative and well-

balanced education.

Provide a safe and secure learning environment.

All staff is valued and respected.

Dedicated to ensure fiscal responsibility and financial accountability.

Govern in an open, trusting and professional manner, treating everyone

with civility and respect.

Parent and community involvement is essential for students’ growth

and success.

School Accountability Report Card

In accordance with state and federal requirements, the School Accountability

Report Card (SARC) is put forth annually by all public schools as a tool for parents and interested parties to stay informed of

the school’s progress, test scores and achievements.

Parental InvolvementOrchard School is committed to providing a variety of activities and events to bring the community and parents together to promote involvement in the educational process. Involvement of parents and morale of students continues to soar. Many teachers are delighted to have parents involved in their classes on a daily basis to help with reading, math activities, art projects and much more. From back-to-school night to Honor Roll assemblies, students and families participate and enjoy the school. Parents feel welcome on the school campus. Highlights of current and past parent and community events include the Parent Teacher Association (PTA), spelling bee, science fair, bingo night, swap meet, California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) education nights, Science Camp Parent Information nights, Coffees with the Principal, Los Dichos, and more.

For more information on how to become involved at the school, please contact principal Mildred Arellano at (408) 944 -0388 or [email protected].

School SafetyOrchard School has established school safety practices. Monthly drills are conducted, and staff and students are trained annually in proper processes, policies and behaviors during earthquakes, fire, Shelter in Place and Lockdown intruder alerts. Orchard School District has partnered with the San Jose Police Department to facilitate the Lockdown process. Parent, staff and community input has been provided and incorporated into the School Safety Plan. The School Site Council annually reviews the plan and approves the procedures. The safety plan was most recently reviewed and updated in October-November 2016.

Professional DevelopmentThe district has set aside three pupil-free days for teacher professional development as well as having one full-time instructional coach who supports teachers in numerous ways on a daily basis. Teachers receive pro-fessional development related to standards-based materials in conjunction with the adoption and implemen-tation of the curriculum. New staff members receive training from peers and the Beginning Teacher Support and Assessment (BTSA). Teachers also receive training on the integration of technology into the delivery of instruction in core curriculum areas. Teachers receive instruction on how to utilize data to make instructional decisions in the classroom. Student discipline, motivation and engagement have been important topics of discussion on teacher training days. In addition, Orchard School District has a partnership with the Santa Clara County Office of Education. Teachers have the opportunity to attend professional development work-shops on the Common Core State Standards and the English Language Development Standards to assist in implementation of those standards. In addition, teachers participate in trainings and workshops for Writer’s Workshop and Developmental Reading Assessment. Many of these teachers then return from their training and provide professional development for the rest of the staff.

California Physical Fitness TestEach spring, all students in grades 5, 7 and 9 are required to participate in the California Physical Fitness Test (PFT). The Fitnessgram is the designated PFT for students in California public schools put forth by the State Board of Education. The PFT measures six key fitness areas:

1. Aerobic Capacity

2. Body Composition

3. Flexibility

4. Abdominal Strength and Endurance

5. Upper Body Strength and Endurance

6. Trunk Extensor Strength and Flexibility

Encouraging and assisting students in establishing lifelong habits of regular physical activity is the primary goal of the Fitnessgram. The table shows the percentage of students meeting the fitness standards of being in the “healthy fitness zone” for the most recent testing period. For more detailed information on the California PFT, please visit www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/pf.

Federal Intervention ProgramSchools and districts will not be newly identified for Program Improvement (PI) in the 2016-17 school year under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) that became law in December 2015, which reauthorized the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). Schools and districts receiving Title I, Part A funding for the 2015-16 school year and were “In PI” in 2015-16 will retain their same PI status and placement year for 2016-17. Schools and districts receiving Title I, Part A funding for the 2015-16 school year and either had a status of “Not in PI” for the 2015-16 school year or did not receive Title I, Part A funding in the 2014-15 school year will have a status of “Not in PI” for the 2016-17 school year. The percentage of schools identified for Program Improvement is calculated by taking the number of schools currently in PI within the district and dividing it by the total number of Title I schools within the district.

This table displays the 2016-17 Program Improvement status for the school and district. For detailed information about PI identification, please visit www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/ay/tidetermine.asp.

California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP)For the 2015-16 school year, the CAASSP consists of several key components, including:

California Alternate Assessment (CAA) test includes both ELA/literacy and mathematics in grades 3-8 and 11. The CAA is given to those students with significant cognitive disabilities which prevent them from taking the Smarter Balanced Assessments with universal tools, designated supports or accommodations.

Smarter Balanced Assessments include ELA/literacy in grades 3-8 and 11. Smarter Balanced Assessments are designed to measure student progress toward college and career readiness.

The assessments under CAASPP show how well students are doing in relation to the state-adopted content standards. On each of these assessments, student aggregate scores are reported as achievement standards. For more information on the CAASPP assessments, please visit www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/ca.

v Scores are not shown when the number of students tested is 10 or fewer, either because the number of students tested in this category is too small for statistical accuracy or to protect student privacy.

CAASPP Test Results for All Students: English Language Arts/Literacy and Mathematics (grades 3-8 and 11)The table below shows the percentage of students meeting or exceeding the state standards in English language arts (ELA) and literacy and mathematics.

CAASPP by Student Group: English Language Arts/Literacy and MathematicsThe tables on the following pages display the percentage of students that met or exceeded state standards in English language arts and mathematics for the school by student groups for grades 3-8.

The “percentage met or exceeded” is calculated by taking the total number of students who met or exceeded the standard on the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessment plus the total number of students who met the standard on the CAAs divided by the total number of students who participated in both assessments.

Note: The number of students tested includes all students who participated in the test whether they received a score or not. However, the number of students tested is not the number that was used to calculate the achievement level percentages. The achievement level percentages are calculated using only students who received scores.

CAASPP Test Results by Student Group: Science (grades 5, 8 and 10)Science test results include CSTs, CMA, and CAPA in grades 5, 8, and 10. The “Proficient or Advanced” is calculated by taking the total number of students who scored proficient or Advanced on the science assess-ment divided by the total number of students with valid scores.

Textbooks and Instructional MaterialsThe textbook-selection process starts with the formation of school adoption committee in which teachers and administrators work together to outline a timeline for the process. Teachers went to the Santa Clara County Office of Education to review possible textbooks for the adoption and decided upon which instructional pro-grams to pilot. The committee looks at a wide variety of instructional programs, including programs on the state-approved list. During the pilot, the adoption committee meets regularly to evaluate the programs used. At the end of the year, a final decision is made on the best program to meet student needs.

School Facility Items Inspected The tables show the results of the school’s most recent inspection using the Facility Inspection Tool (FIT) or equivalent school form. The following is a list of items inspected.

School FacilitiesThe Orchard campus is approximately 18 years old and retains the look of a new school. The school meets all requirements outlined in the Williams case legislation. There have been no formal complaints regarding cleanliness or disrepair of the facility. The Board of Education has authorized several building projects to enhance educational programs for students in the last several years, including a new Event Center, rede-signed playgrounds, solar panels in the parking areas, remodeled classrooms and common areas, classroom technology upgrades (consisting of projectors, document cameras, teacher microphones and speakers), a remodeled and expanded library, safety fencing in the front of the school, and a remodeled cafeteria and kitchen area. Most recently, two new portable classrooms were added to the Orchard campus, and the stu-dent bathrooms were remodeled. The Orchard School Board of Education is always looking into new ways to improve and enhance the school grounds and facilities, including more technology upgrades, increased solar panel coverage and new safety endeavors, to name a few.

Deficiencies and RepairsThe table lists the repairs required for all deficiencies found during the site inspection. Regardless of each item’s repair status, all deficiencies are listed.

“Orchard blends teaching and technology to imbue students

with the 21st century skills required for future success.”

Types of Services FundedOrchard School receives state and federal funding to equalize opportunities for at-risk students. Limited-English proficient students receive support from primary-language assistance in Vietnamese and Spanish. Title I, low-achieving students receive assistance as well. The school has implemented several before- and after-school intervention programs in language arts and mathematics to assist students who are below grade level. Many teachers conduct after-school tutorial sessions for students to help them acquire core con-tent. In addition, volunteers assist students with reading. Each summer, a summer school program for at-risk learners is op-erated to reinforce basic skills. The 4’C’s council operates a parent-pay preschool program on the Orchard campus, serving infants through age 4.

In addition, the district has developed an extensive range of opportunities for special education students on the district campus, including a district-operated preschool program and county-run autism classes. The campus accepts and main-streams special needs students in a safe, protected environment. This successful program continues to grow and service more students.
