2015-16 School Accountability Report Card for Imperial County Special Education Page 2 of 12

About the SARC By February 1 of each year, every school in California is required by state law to publish a School Accountability Report Card (SARC). The SARC contains information about the condition and performance of each California public school. Under the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF) all local educational agencies (LEAs) are required to prepare a Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP), which describes how they intend to meet annual school-specific goals for all pupils, with specific activities to address state and local priorities. Additionally, data reported in an LCAP is to be consistent with data reported in the SARC. • For more information about SARC requirements, see the California

Department of Education (CDE) SARC Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/sa/.

• For more information about the LCFF or LCAP, see the CDE LCFF Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/lc/.

• For additional information about the school, parents/guardians and community members should contact the school principal or the district office.

Quality, Currency, Availability of Textbooks and Instructional Materials (School Year 2016-17) Imperial County Office of Education held a Public Hearing on October 13, 2014, and determined that each school within the district has sufficient and good-quality textbooks, instructional materials, or science lab equipment pursuant to the settlement of Williams v. the State of California. All students, including English learners, are given their own individual standards-aligned textbooks or instructional materials, or both, in core subjects and in visual and performing arts for use in the classroom and to take home. Textbooks and supplementary materials are adopted according to a cycle developed by the State Department of Education, making the textbooks used in the school the most current available. Materials approved for use by the state are reviewed by all teachers and a recommendation is made to the school Board by a selection committee composed of teachers and administrators. All recommended materials are available for parent examination at the district office prior to adoption.

School Facility Conditions and Planned Improvements (Most Recent Year) ICOE Special Education provides educational services to students ages 0-21 with moderate to severe disabilities. We operate a special school, the Imperial Valley Center for Exceptional Children, as well as classrooms housed on comprehensive school campuses located in El Centro, Brawley, Calexico, and Imperial. These classrooms are specially designed to meet the academic, functional curriculum, behavioral/social-emotional, communication, vocational, and independent living needs of the students we serve. ICOE keeps its facilities in good repair in accordance with a maintenance plan and in compliance with the Office of Public School Construction via an ongoing evaluation process. To better school safety and security, all classrooms are connected to an alarm system integrated into the school site and have incoming and outgoing telephone service. The ICOE Special Education Department takes great efforts to ensure that all schools are clean, safe, and functional. The Imperial Valley Center for Exceptional Children has nine classrooms, a multipurpose room, and five portable trailers. This school was built in 1977. Four portable trailers were added to our school in 1979 to place our Infant Toddler Program, Preschool, and Speech and Language Program. The school opened in 1977 with all permanent classrooms. The multipurpose room was also built in 1977. Our facilities strongly support teaching and learning through their ample classroom and playground space. Facility information is current as of January 2017. Our Principal at IVCEC works with the custodial staff, consisting of two full-time and two half-time staff members, to develop cleaning schedules to ensure a clean and safe school. The school has assigned morning and evening custodial care that provide comprehensive cleaning and maintenance for the building and grounds. Maintenance staff ensures that the school-site is maintained in good repair and working order. Any necessary repairs are completed in a timely manner, in which a work order process is in place, and utilized to ensure efficient service and that emergency repairs are given the highest priority.

B. Pupil Outcomes

State Priority: Pupil Achievement The SARC provides the following information relevant to the State priority: Pupil Achievement (Priority 4): • Statewide assessments (i.e., California Assessment of Student

Performance and Progress [CAASPP] System, which includes the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments for students in the general education population and the California Alternate Assessments [CAAs] for English language arts/literacy [ELA] and mathematics given in grades three through eight and grade eleven. The CAAs have replaced the California Alternate Performance Assessment [CAPA] for ELA and mathematics, which were eliminated in 2015. Only eligible students may participate in the administration of the CAAs. CAA items are aligned with alternate achievement standards, which are linked with the Common Core State Standards [CCSS] for students with significant cognitive disabilities); and

• The percentage of students who have successfully completed courses

that satisfy the requirements for entrance to the University of California and the California State University, or career technical education sequences or programs of study

C. Engagement

State Priority: Parental Involvement The SARC provides the following information relevant to the Parental Involvement State Priority (Priority 3): • Efforts the school district makes to seek parent input in making decisions for the school district and each schoolsite. Opportunities for Parental Involvement (School Year 2016-17) Parental involvement is important in promoting student achievement and success. An annual Parent Handbook is distributed that provides valuable information to insure that we are working together to meet the individual needs of every student. Parents are also invited to participate in our School Site Council (SSC), where teachers, parents and administration have the opportunity to meet and discuss how to best provide services and support to our children and school community. Families are encouraged to participate in the School Site Council and PTO fundraising efforts. Annual traditions at IVCEC are upheld which foster parental involvement and community participation including the Open House and Visually Impaired Parent Night in September, the Harvest Festival in October, the Winter Program in December, the Spring Potluck in April, Spring Extravaganza/Student Talent Show in May, and Graduation Ceremonies in June. The ICOE/IVCEC PTO organizes various yearly fundraisers, including candy and T-shirt sales. The English Learner Advisory Council, ELAC, advises the SSC of the special needs of EL students on ways the SSC can support parent - school partnerships to meet those needs. Specifically, ELAC advises SSC, administration and school staff on programs and services for English language learners. Presently, the committee comprises ICOE parents of English language learners who advise, review and comment on English learner education for the county-operated Special Education Program. ELAC is a forum where parents can receive information, voice concerns and make suggestions to improve school to home communication.

2015-16 School Accountability Report Card for Imperial County Special Education Page 10 of 12

All SSC/PTO/English Learner Advisory Council meetings are open to the public and all members of our community are encouraged to attend. SSC/PTO/ELAC meetings are conducted at the Imperial Valley Center for Exceptional Children on the second Tuesday of each month at 5:15 p.m. At every meeting, an opportunity to speak on a topic not on the agenda is offered to anyone who is interested in addressing the SSC, PTO, and/or the English Learners Advisory Council. For more information regarding parent support groups, please contact Sylvia Ayala at (760) 312-6630.

State Priority: School Climate The SARC provides the following information relevant to the School Climate State Priority (Priority 6): • Pupil suspension rates; • Pupil expulsion rates; and • Other local measures on the sense of safety. School Safety Plan Safety of students and staff is of utmost importance to the Imperial County Special Education. The school is in compliance with all laws, rules, and regulations pertaining to hazardous materials and state earthquake standards. The plan was last reviewed by members of our School Safety Team, local law enforcement, and discussed with school staff in January of 2017. IVCEC is a closed campus school. All visitors must sign in at the front office and wear an identification badge while on school grounds. Fire drills are conducted monthly and earthquake drills are conducted twice a year. The Williams Settlement procedure was implemented beginning in the 2004-05 school year with Conditions of Facility Signs posted in every classroom. The School Safety Plan for the Special Education Department is on file at Imperial Valley Center for Exceptional Children (IVCEC) and at the Imperial County Office of Education (ICOE). The School Safety Plan outlines rules and procedures to provide a safe environment specifically for students with disabilities. Our plan will soon be available to view on our website at www.icoe.org/student/special-education/ accountability-safety.

Professional Development provided for Teachers Staff members build teaching skills and concepts by participating in many conferences and workshops throughout the year, then sharing their experiences and knowledge with district colleagues. The district dedicates three days to staff development annually prior to the commencement of the new school year. In addition, professional development for classified and certificated teachers occurs such as, but not limited to: after-school professional learning community meetings for teachers, monthly collaboration meetings between novice teachers and their mentor teacher (mentor/mentee meetings), along with classified and certificated training. For the previous four school years, we had five days each year dedicated to staff and professional development.
