School Accountability Report Card
Reported Using Data from the 2013-14 School Year
Published During 2014-15
Every school in California is required by state law to publish a School Accountability Report Card (SARC), by February 1 of each year. 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 Accountability Plan (LCAP), w hich describes how they intend to meet annual school-specific goals for all pupils, w ith specific activities to address
state and local priorities. Additionally, data reported in an LCAP is to be consistent w ith data reported in the SARC.
For more information about SARC requirements, see the California Department of Education (CDE) SARC W eb page at http://w w w .cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/sa/.
View this SARC online at the school and/or LEA W eb sites.
For more information about the LCFF or LCAP, see the CDE LCFF W eb page at http://w w w .cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/lc/.
For additional information about the school, parents and community members should contact the school principal or the district office.

Main Threats:
1. Earthquake – Drop, Cover and hold on! Evacuate after if necessary.
2. Fire – Evacuate to Primary or Secondary sight depending upon danger location. Lockdown/ Animate threat – A.L.I.C.E. (Alert, Lockdow n, Inform, Counter,
