1 Lincoln High School Published: January 2012 Principal’s Message The purpose of Lincoln High School is to provide an alternative education setting for San Leandro Unified School District students to earn a diploma in ways markedly different than the comprehensive high school. Credit deficiency is the main reason students enroll in our continuation high school. We recognize that students have different reasons for being behind in credits (family problems, truancy, relocating, etc.) and that we must provide them with a non-traditional way of earning credits towards graduation. The staff at Lincoln High School works with students individually as young adults to help them gain academic focus, to gear them towards graduating and to prepare them for future scholarly and occupational aspirations. We have high academic and social expectations for all of our students and we encourage them to aspire to greatness. District Vision Statement The mission of the San Leandro Unified School District is to educate students to achieve and demonstrate academic excellence and become confident, collaborative and competitive in a global society, by utilizing state- of-the-art technologies and innovative teaching strategies within a well-maintained, secure learning environment, in a region rich in heritage and diverse in culture, where we value our traditions while welcoming change. School Mission Statement The mission of Lincoln High School is to provide an alternative educational setting where all students receive individualized support and experience success in a nurturing, comfortable environment that promotes respect, integrity and academic excellence. Philosophy We believe that everyone is capable of greatness and that is our responsibility to do whatever it takes to ensure the academic, social and emotional success of each student. District & School Profile Lincoln High School is located in the City of San Leandro which is situated 20 miles southeast of San Francisco.

Discipline & Climate for LearningThe students, staff, and community of Lincoln High School believe that every student has a right to learn. School rules and policies are distributed at the beginning of each year in the District Handbook. Throughout the school year, school rules and policies are reviewed in phone calls to parents, parent/teacher/principal conferences, one-on-one conferences, new student orientation, student newsletters, classroom visits, and discipline conferences.

The Suspensions and Expulsions table reflects total cases (not students suspended, as students may have been suspended on more than one occasion), as well as percentages of total enrollment. Expulsions occur only when required by law or when all other alternatives are exhausted.

Extracurricular Activities Students are encouraged to participate in the school’s additional academic and extracurricular activities that are an integral part of the educational program. Lincoln High School offers numerous volunteer opportunities for students who wish to participate in extracurricular/enrichment activities. The school also offers the following after-school programs:

• Enrichment Classes • Credit Recovery• Career Prep • College Prep

Student RecognitionLincoln High School’s student recognition program helps to contribute to the positive environment of the school. Students are recognized for achievements in academics, behavior, and attendance. Students are recognized for their academic achievement through the use of an Honor Roll system, as well as with the selection of Students of the Month. An end-of-the-year barbecue is held to celebrate and recognize all the students’ achievements throughout the year.

School Enrollment & AttendanceSchool districts receive financial support from the state for the education of the students they serve based on how many students attend each day. Most importantly, attendance is critical to academic achievement. Student attendance is carefully monitored to identify those students exhibiting excessive absences. The chart illustrates the trend in enrollment for the last three years.

Attendance, tardy, and truancy policies are clearly stated, consistently enforced, and consequences fairly administered. Parents are advised of their responsibilities, including proper notification of when and why students are absent. Lincoln High School uses the Autodialer system for the communication of students’ attendance.

The school monitors daily student attendance very closely and places calls home to parents whenever a student is absent. Students’ monthly attendance records are closely reviewed, with letters sent home to those with excessive absences.

Students are referred to SARB when they have persistent attendance and behavior problems in school, and when the normal avenues of classroom, school, and district counseling are not effective. The members of the SARB, the referred students, and their parents or guardians meet regularly to evaluate the student’s situation and recommend alternative solutions to alleviate circumstances that contribute to specific truancy, attendance, or behavior problems.

Dropout & Graduation RatesSeveral programs are utilized to discourage dropouts, including an after-school online credit recovery system, student phone calls, conferences with parents, and conferences with students to discuss their educational options. The table displays the school’s one-year dropout and graduation rates for the most recent three-year period for which data is available.

Class SizeLincoln High School maintained a school-wide class size average of 8.5 and a pupil-to-teacher ratio of 14.3 for the 2010-11 school year. The table indicates the average class size per subject area, as well as the number of classes offered in reference to their enrollment.

Counseling & Support StaffLincoln High School provides a wide variety of programs to support students in the classroom and in the community. Teachers and parents are the primary agents for meeting the needs of students in their personal and social development. The counselor to pupil ratio is 100:1. The resources are available to all students at Lincoln High School.

Curriculum DevelopmentAll curriculum development at Lincoln High School revolves around the California State Content Standards and Frameworks. Teachers align classroom curriculum to ensure that all students either meet or exceed state proficiency levels. The school’s curriculum guides are updated regularly to align with the state standards, district goals, and the statewide assessment program. The staff at Lincoln High School meets regularly to analyze how instruction impacts students’ learning. Additionally, Lincoln High School sends one representative to the Districtwide Curriculum Council to discuss the school’s findings. Lincoln High School added an independent study program in 2008-09.

Instructional MaterialsSan Leandro Unified School District sets a high priority upon ensuring that sufficient and current textbooks and materials are available to support the school’s instructional program.

Data SourcesData within the SARC was provided by San Leandro Unified School District, retrieved from the 2010-11 SARC template, and/or located on Dataquest (http://data1.cde.ca.gov/dataquest). Dataquest is a dynamic system that provides reports for accountability. It includes Academic Performance (API), Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP), test data, enrollment, graduates, dropouts, course enrollments, staffing, and data regarding English learners. Ed-Data is a partnership of the CDE, EdSource, and the Fiscal Crisis and Management Assistance Team (FCMAT) that provides extensive financial, demographic, and performance information about California’s public kindergarten through grade twelve school districts and schools.

Student Achievement & TestingA comprehensive assessment and accountability plan has been developed to ensure that information regarding student performance is used to continuously improve the instructional program and to communicate with parents about their child’s achievement. The STAR (Standardized Testing and Reporting) program, the district’s performance assessments, and classroom tests are utilized to determine whether each student is performing below, at, or above grade level standards.

California Standards Test (CST)The California Standards Test (CST), a component of the STAR Program, is administered to all students in the spring to assess student performance in relation to the State Content Standards. Student scores are reported as performance levels: Advanced (exceeds state standards), Proficient (meets standards), Basic (approaching standards), Below Basic (below standards), and Far Below Basic (well below standards). The first table displays the percent of students achieving at the Proficient or Advanced level (meeting or exceeding the state standards) in English/language arts, mathematics, social science, and science, for the most recent three-year period. The second table displays the percent of students, by group, achieving at the Proficient or Advanced level (meeting or exceeding the state standards) for the most recent testing period. For detailed information regarding the STAR Program results for each grade and performance level, including the percent of students not tested, see the CDE STAR Results Web site at http://star.cde.ca.gov.

Federal Intervention ProgramSchools and districts receiving Federal Title I funding enter Program Improvement (PI) if they do not make AYP for two consecutive years in the same content area (English/language arts or mathematics) or on the same indicator (API or graduation rate). After entering PI, schools and districts advance to the next level of intervention with each additional year that they do not make AYP.

Alternative Schools Accountability Model (ASAM)The Alternative Schools Accountability Model (ASAM) was developed to provide an alternative accountability system. The ASAM will provide accountability based on a system of multiple indicators of growth for alternative schools. Schools that have registered for the ASAM, select indicators of growth and collect data on those indicators throughout the school year. The 2003-04 school year was the first year for data collection at Lincoln High School to establish a baseline for the indicators selected by the school. The baseline indicators include: Indicator Two (Suspension), Indicator Six (Attendance), and Indicator 13B (Credit Completion). For information regarding the ASAM results, please see Data Quest.

Academic Performance Index (API)The Academic Performance Index (API) is a score on a scale of 200 to 1,000 that annually measures the academic performance and progress of individual schools in California. The state has set 800 as the API score that schools should strive to meet.

Statewide Rank: Schools receiving an API Base score are ranked in ten categories of equal size (deciles) from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest), according to type of school (elementary, middle, or high school).

Similar Schools Rank: Schools also receive a ranking that compares that school to 100 other schools with similar demographic characteristics. Each set of 100 schools is ranked by API score from 1 (lowest) to 10 (highest) to indicate how well the school performed compared to schools most like it.

The first table displays the school’s API ranks and actual API point changes by student group for the past three years. The second table displays, by student group, the most recent Growth API at the school, district, and state level.

B - Lincoln High is an Alternative Schools Accountability Model (ASAM) school. Schools participating in the ASAM do not currently receive growth, target information, or statewide or similar schools rankings on this report in recognition of their markedly different educational missions and populations served. ASAM schools are covered under the Alternative Accountability system as required by Education Code Section 52052 and not the API accountability system. However, API information is needed to comply with the federal No Child Left Behind (NCLB) law.

Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)No Child Left Behind (NCLB) is a federal law enacted in January 2002 that reauthorized the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA). It mandates that all students (including students who are economically disadvantaged, are from racial or ethnic minority groups, have disabilities, or have limited English proficiency) in all grades meet the state academic achievement standards for mathematics and English/language arts by 2014. Schools must demonstrate “Adequate Yearly Progress” (AYP) toward achieving that goal.

The Federal NCLB Act requires that all schools and districts meet the following Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) requirements:

• Participation rate on the state’s standards-based assessments in English/language arts (ELA) and mathematics.

• Percent proficient on the state’s standards-based assessments in ELA and mathematics.

• API as an additional indicator.• Graduation rate (for secondary schools).

There are several consequences for schools that do not meet the AYP standards, including additional tutoring and replacing of staff. Students would also be allowed to transfer to schools (within their district) that have met their AYP, and the former school would be required to provide transportation to the new site. Results of school and district performance are displayed in the chart.

Completion of High School Graduation RequirementsBeginning with the graduating class of 2006, students in California public schools must pass both the English-language arts and mathematics portions of the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) to receive a high school diploma. For students who began the 2010-11 school year in the 12th grade as evidenced by that school year’s October CBEDS enrollment, the table below displays by student group the percentage of 12th grade students who met all state and local graduation requirements for grade twelve completion, including having passed both portions of the CAHSEE or received a local waiver or state exemption. Detailed information about the CAHSEE can be found at the CDE web site at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/hs.

California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE)The California High School Exit Exam is primarily used as a graduation requirement in California, but the results of this exam are also used to determine Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for high schools, as required by the Federal No Child Left Behind (NCLB) law. The CAHSEE has an English language-arts section and a math section and, for purposes of calculating AYP, three performance levels were set: Advanced, Proficient, and Not Proficient. The score a student must achieve to be considered Proficient is different than the passing score for the graduation requirement. In order to protect student privacy, testing data is not disclosed when there are fewer than 10 students tested.

Admission Requirements for California’s Public Universities

University of CaliforniaAdmission requirements for the University of California (UC) follow guidelines set forth in the Master Plan, which requires that the top one-eighth of the state’s high school graduates, as well as those transfer students who have successfully completed specified college course work, be eligible for admission to the UC. These requirements are designed to ensure that all eligible students are adequately prepared for University-level work.

For general admissions requirements, please visit the UC Admissions Information Web page at http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/.

California State UniversityEligibility for admission to the California State University (CSU) is determined by three factors:

• Specific high school courses• Grades in specified courses and test scores• Graduation from high school

Some campuses have higher standards for particular 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 have local admission guarantee policies for students who graduate or transfer from high schools and colleges that are historically served by a CSU campus in that region. For admission, application, and fee information see the CSU Web page at http://www.calstate.edu/admission/admission.shtml.

Workforce PreparationLincoln High School strives to provide its students with an understanding of how to apply subject learning in their future employment. The school’s program focuses on preparing students to think conceptually, communicate effectively, and apply skills in real-world contexts. Curriculum and instructional strategies foster critical thinking, problem solving, leadership, and academic skills. Students are exposed to a broad array of career opportunities and counselors facilitate selection of a career path based on individual interests, goals, strengths, and abilities. Current workforce preparation programs include ROP classes, offered through the ROP Center, in culinary arts, graphic arts, auto technology, computer maintenance and repair, criminal justice, medical career, cosmetology, and after-school college and career prep classes. Work experience and school-to-work classes are offered at the school. For more information about Career Technical Education and/or the district’s Regional Occupation Program, please contact Linda Granger.

Career Technical Education ParticipationLincoln High School’s Career Technical Education programs provide a sequence of courses that furnish individuals with the academic, technical knowledge, and skills individuals need to prepare for further education and for careers in current or emerging employment sectors. The table displays questions and answers about student participation in Lincoln High School’s Career Technical Education (CTE) programs.

Teacher Professional DevelopmentTeachers may receive assistance through the Peer Assistance and Review (PAR) Program. The PAR program uses exemplary teachers to assist permanent and beginning teachers in the areas of subject matter knowledge and teaching strategies.

Staff development is supported for classroom implementation through BTSA (Beginning Teachers Support and Assessment) Support Providers and District Literacy Coaches.

The district supports staff development through three Professional Growth Days each year.

Teacher AssignmentSan Leandro Unified School District recruits and employs the most qualified credentialed teachers available. For the 2010-11 school year, Lincoln High School had seven six credentialed teachers who met all credential requirements in accordance with State of California guidelines.

Teacher misassignments reflect the number of placements within a school for which the certificated employee in the teaching or services position (including positions that involve teaching English Learners) does not hold a legally recognized certificate or credential.Teacher vacancies reflect the number of positions to which a single designated certificated employee has not been assigned at the beginning of the year for an entire year or, if the position is for a one-semester course, a position to which a single designated certificated employee has not been assigned at the beginning of a semester for an entire semester. For the 2011-12 school year, the most current available data are reported.

Highly Qualified TeachersThe Federal No Child Left Behind Act requires that all teachers in core subject areas meet certain requirements in order to be considered as “Highly Qualified” no later than the end of the 2006-07 school year. Minimum qualifications include: possession of a Bachelor’s Degree, possession of an appropriate California teaching credential, and demonstrated competence in core academic subjects.

School Facilities & SafetyThe safety of students and staff is a primary concern at Lincoln High School. The school is in compliance with all laws, rules, and regulations pertaining to hazardous materials and state earthquake standards. The School Site Safety plan is updated annually in March by teachers and classified staff. The key elements of the School Site Safety Plan include how to handle an emergency, staffing in an emergency, emergency procedures, and student/staff safety.
