Substitute Teacher
Availability
This section provides information
about the availability of qualified substitute teachers and the impact of any
difficulties in this area on the school's instructional program.
|
Substitute teachers are drawn from a pool of qualified teachers registered through the Shasta County Office of Education. Generally, the district does not experience any problems finding qualified substitute teachers, and has an adequate pool of fully credentialed substitutes. Many of the substitutes become regulars who fit in well with the school community and know the routines. |
Teacher Evaluation
Process
This
section provides information about the procedures and the criteria for teacher
evaluations.
|
A constructive evaluation process promotes quality instruction and is a fundamental element in a sound educational program. Evaluations and formal observations are designed to encourage teacher adherence to state content standards, school-wide implementation of vocabulary building strategies, structured engagement pedagogy to include all students in active learning, and the building of literacy skills in all subject areas. Temporary and probationary teachers are evaluated annually and tenured teachers are evaluated every other year. The principal and the assistant principals, who have been trained and certified for competency to perform teacher evaluations, conduct these evaluations. The California Standards for the Teaching Profession serve as the evaluation criteria which include: engaging and supporting all students in learning, understanding and organizing subject matter for student learning, assessing student learning, creating and maintaining effective environments for student learning, planning instruction, designing learning experiences for all students, and developing as a professional educator. |

Planning and
This section provides information
about the structure of the school's instructional program and the experience of
the school's leadership team.

Based upon our
commitment to restructure High School instruction and following the recent
movement to improve literacy instruction, the staff has set its focus on
Rigor in the classroom, Relevance with curriculum, and Relationships with students and
parents. While we have shown
improvement for the last four years in our The rigor in math instruction
was also to improve; therefore, all classes that had traditionally been
offered at Results of the ACT Explore
test were disaggregated and students were placed into four groupings for
English: Lower level/Title 1
After the administration had determined the appropriate recommendation for placement for each student, the recommendations were sent to the feeder schools for the prior year’s teacher approval or suggestion for a level change. If there was a discrepancy in the test score and the teacher input, then the teacher’s recommendation was taken and the student was placed into that class. |

strategies, and pre-reading for expository texts were included in the
training. Two literacy goals
were accomplished at School wide in-service
instruction for the past three years has revolved around Literacy
Instruction. A partnership
with Kate Kinsella for two years began the
improvement through the focus of structured engagement and vocabulary
acquisition. A teacher
one-week boot camp, taught by Julie Adams, has furthered the Literacy
Instruction with in depth learning of reading instruction known as into
(frontloading), through and beyond.
Specific strategies of note taking (Cornell notes), summarizing
(paragraph shrinking), and scaffolding materials have allowed teachers to
empower students with printed text.
The boot camp instruction continues all year as Math in-service began in May
2005, with a partnership with Brad Fulton, a math teacher in the
Enterprise Elementary District, and expert in hands-on math
instruction. After three
