Priorities

Purpose

The average “School scores” were over 200, with some schools up near 800 with over 100 expulsions. Hayward was on the high end of 90s.

Low scores are a great indication that we are doing a lot of things right by our students.

Over 50% of our student body believes that harassment and bullying is a problem at HHS.

Bullying is when one or more students tease, threaten, spread rumors about, hit, shove or hurt another student over and over again.

According to a National Gang Threat Assessment done recently Product No. 2009-m0335-001

which leads to violence and deaths”.

Now for Some

Great News!

Over 80% of our students want to go

to college

Over 80% of HHS students think that

students have lots of chances to get involved

in sports, clubs, and other activities outside

of classes.

Around 70% of our students report that they have a teacher or other adult in the school that they can talk to if they have

problems.

65% Juniors and 75% of Freshman agree that they feel safe

while attending school.

Over 60% of our students believe that teachers really care about them and give

them a lot of encouragement.

So now what?As a result of this survey conducted last school year, we have been granted monies to participate in the Safe and Supportive Schools program.

This is an extensive 4 year program that began 2010-11 school year. We have three years of funding and initiative remaining, as the first year was data retrieval and prioritization.

We are fortunate to have a staff and school with such low scores as a baseline.

The goal of the grant is to reduce scores further. All initiatives written are centered around this goal.

HHS will work towards an increase in their graduation rate by 5% in Native American population in 2012-13. Note: we have decreased from 85.9-87.1-83.4% the last three years.

We will see a slight increase in disciplinary referrals, out of school suspensions, and expulsions in 2011-12 while student enlightenment is taking place.

See online submission hits decrease in all three areas by June 2012.

Bullying and Harassment

Violence and Gang activity

Drug and Alcohol intervention

We will also work toward having every incoming freshman take part in at least one extra-curricular activity monitored by increase reported by advisors, coaches, and Link Crew.

In addition, we will see stability school wide in extra-curricular participation from the School Performance Report 2012-13.
