School Description and Mission Statement (School Year 2009–10)
This section provides information about the school, its programs, and its goals.
| Bayshore Preparatory Charter School (BPCS) adheres to a Personalized Learning model of Education. Our goal is to educate K-12 students through a rigorous college prep curriculum in a flexible, student-centered learning environment. We strive to actively partner with students, parents and the community to support students’ academic success and personal goals. The BPCS community is committed to fostering the development of the unique potential of each student through experiences that promote self-directed learning, self-reliance, responsibilty, and collaborative decision-making. BPCS supports students’ extracurricular interests and further educational and career goals via clubs, elective courses, field trips, and the opportunity for concurrent enrollment at Palomar Community College.The diversity of the BPCS student population lies not only in the socio-economic status but also in their motivation for enrollment in this type of independent study program. The staff at BPCS continuously tailors curriculum to the individual learning styles of each student, utilizing one-on-one teaching, small group instruction, independent learning, and technological resources. Upon enrollment at BPCS, each student’s supervising teacher analyzes their personal and academic status and areas of need in order to develop an individualized educational plan. |
Opportunities for Parental Involvement (School Year 2009–10)
This section provides information about opportunities for parents to become involved with school activities, including contact information pertaining to organized opportunities for parental involvement.
| The Parent Advisory Committee (PAC) was established to make recommendations to the Board concerning needed changes and/or additions to the charter as well as oversee fundraising. The PAC consists of parents/guardians of students enrolled at Bayshore Preparatory and the Executive Director. Parent/guardian members are chosen by ballot of parents of students enrolled. The PAC meets not less than four (4) times per year. They may elect from their ranks a Chair, Vice-Chair, and Secretary to serve one year terms. Each member will have one vote and all decisions will require a simple majority of the members voting. The PAC has adopted its own procedures for filling mid-term vacancies. Members report their proceedings directly to the Board at the next monthly Board meeting. The PAC oversees fundraising activities and directs the allocation of spending with input from staff. All parents/guardians are welcome to attend the PAC meetings. |

IX. Student Performance
Standardized Testing and Reporting Program
The Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Program consists of several key components, including the California Standards Tests (CSTs); the California Modified Assessment (CMA), and the California Alternate Performance Assessment (CAPA). The assessments under the STAR program show how well students are doing in relation to the state content standards. The CSTs include English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics in grades two through eleven; science in grades five, eight, and nine through eleven; and history-social science in grades eight, and nine through eleven. The CAPA includes ELA and mathematics in grades two through eleven, and science for grades five, eight, and ten. The CAPA is given to those students with significant cognitive disabilities whose disabilities prevent them from taking either the CSTs with accommodations or modifications or the CMA with accommodations. The CMA is an alternate assessment that is based on modified achievement standards in ELA for grades three through nine, mathematics for grades three through seven and Algebra I and science in grades five, eight, and ten. The CMA is designed to assess those students whose disabilities preclude them from achieving grade-level proficiency on an assessment of the California content standards with or without accommodations. On each of these assessments, student scores are reported as performance levels. Detailed information regarding the STAR Program results for each grade and performance level, including the percent of students not tested, can be found on the CDE Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Results Web site at http://star.cde.ca.gov. Program information regarding the STAR Program can be found in the Explaining 2009 STAR Program Summary Results to the Public guide at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/sr/documents/pkt5intrpts09.pdf.
Note: Scores are not shown when the number of students tested is ten or less, either because the number of students in this category is too small for statistical accuracy or to protect student privacy. In no case shall any group score be reported that would deliberately or inadvertently make public the score or performance of any individual student.

X. Accountability
Academic Performance Index
The Academic Performance Index (API) is an annual measure of state academic performance and progress of schools in California. API scores range from 200 to 1,000, with a statewide target of 800. Detailed information about the API can be found on the CDE Academic Performance Index (API) Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/ap/.
Academic Performance Index Ranks – Three-Year Comparison
This table displays the school’s statewide and similar schools’ API ranks. The statewide API rank ranges from 1 to 10. A statewide rank of 1 means that the school has an API score in the lowest ten percent of all schools in the state, while a statewide rank of 10 means that the school has an API score in the highest ten percent of all schools in the state. The similar schools API rank reflects how a school compares to 100 statistically matched “similar schools.” A similar schools rank of 1 means that the school’s academic performance is comparable to the lowest performing ten schools of the 100 similar schools, while a similar schools rank of 10 means that the school’s academic performance is better than at least 90 of the 100 similar schools.

Adequate Yearly Progress
The federal Elementary and Secondary Education Act requires that all schools and districts meet the following Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) criteria:
- Participation rate on the state’s standards-based assessments in 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)
Detailed information about AYP, including participation rates and percent proficient results by student group, can be found on the CDE Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/ay/.
Adequate Yearly Progress Overall and by Criteria (School Year 2009–10)
This table displays an indication of whether the school and the district made AYP overall and whether the school and the district met each of the six AYP criteria described above.

Federal Intervention Program (School Year 2010–11)
Schools 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 (ELA 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. Detailed information about PI identification can be found on the CDE Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/ay/.

XI. School Completion and Postsecondary Preparation
Admission Requirements for California’s Public Universities
University of California
Admission 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 General Admissions Information Web page at http://www.universityofcalifornia.edu/admissions/general.html. (Outside Source)
California State University
Admission requirements for the California State University (CSU) use three factors to determine eligibility. They are specific high school courses; grades in specified courses and test scores; and 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 utilize 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 general admissions requirements please visit the California State University Web page at http://www.calstate.edu/SAS/admreq.shtml. (Outside Source)

Professional Development
This section provides information on the annual number of school days dedicated to staff development for the most recent three-year period.
| Several days prior to school commencing, professional development is provided in grade and subject level curriculum, the school information tracking system, student assessment including STAR data analysis by grade level, subject and cluster content. On-going professional development, including workshops, conferences and weekly staff meetings are available throughout the year. Teachers are sent to workshops and return as trainer of trainers. Beginning teachers participate in BTSA training. Because of the structure of our program, opportunities are available throughout the year that don’t impact continued student learning. |
