School Description and Mission Statement

Coffee Creek School and District Mission

To provide a safe environment which promotes academic excellence, responsible citizens, and a life-long desire for learning.

Vision Statement

It is the vision of Coffee Creek School that the united efforts of students, parents, staff, and community will develop students who…

  • value themselves
  • come to school ready to learn
  • speak and write effectively
  • are engaged in nature and science
  • compute and problem solve both individually and in a group setting
  • value personal health and fitness
  • interact respectfully within the school society and community
  • use resources of information and technology
  • value visual and performing arts
The vision is that Coffee Creek School students, parents, and staff will strive for high quality student work within a safe enriched environment, utilizing a wide variety of resources and strategies. School Profile Coffee Creek Elementary School is a single school district located in the rural mountain community of Coffee Creek in Trinity County. The two-room school serves approximately 15 students in Kindergarten through eighth grade. The school offers an after- school program for interested students. In addition, students may participate in after school sports. Intervention opportunities are also offered to students.
Coffee Creek Elementary School staff and community strive to work together to create programs that produce articulate, confident, and skilled students. There is a strong focus on a well-balanced education for every student with high standards aimed at excellence and student empowerment. Our School Site Council provides a format for school-wide decision making. Fund raising activities and volunteering in the classroom provide opportunities for community involvement. Our vision is to support and promote a community/school family atmosphere with an emphasis on mutual support for all within a learning community.
Coffee Creek Elementary School opened in the early part of the last century and moved to its current site in 1960. The school facility consists of two classrooms, a multi-purpose room, kitchen, and office. The school and school site serves as a focal point for students, their parents, and the community.

II. School Safety and Climate for Learning

School Safety Plan
 Date of Last Review/Update   5/05  Date Last Discussed with Staff   5/05
 
 The Coffee Creek School Safety plan is reviewed annually. The SITE Council approves the plan which is then submitted to the Governing Board for their adoption. Care is taken to assure that the plan is workable, realistic, and is in full compliance.
 

School Programs and Practices that Promote a Positive Learning Environment
 
 All students participate in a comprehensive VAPA program. A part-time music teacher gives instruction in musical instruments, song, dance and drama. Art is an integral part of the weekly curriculum. Students participate in annual Winter and Spring performances. After-school team sports are offered each season. An ongoing focus on environmental science involves students in projects on and around the school campus and community. Annual explorations and data collecting events offer students hands-on practice and knowledge-building experience.
 

Suspensions and Expulsions
The number of suspensions and expulsions is the total number of incidents that result in a suspension or expulsion. The rate of suspensions and expulsions is the total number of incidents divided by the school's California Basic Educational Data System (CBEDS) total enrollment for the given year. In unified school districts, a comparison between a particular type of school (elementary, middle, high) and the district average may be misleading. Schools have the option of comparing their data with the district-wide average for the same type of school.

School Facilities
 The Coffee Creek School facilities are well-built, well lighted and ventilated, well equipped, and comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act. The five acre campus encompasses a classroom building, storage building, tennis court, basketball courts, primary playground, baseball field, track and various lawnareas for picnicing and other activities. The classroom building houses 2 classrooms, an office and a multi-purpose room. The entire campus is fenced.
 
 


III. Academic Data

Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR)
Through the California Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Program, students in grades 2-8 are tested annually in various subject areas. Currently, the STAR program includes California Standards Tests (CST) in English Language Arts and Mathematics in grades 2-8. Note: To protect student privacy, scores are not shown when the number of students tested is 10 or less.

California Standards Tests (CST)
The California Standards Tests show how well students are doing in relation to the state content standards. Student scores are reported as performance levels. The five performance levels are Advanced (exceeds state standards), Proficient (meets standards), Basic (approaching standards), Below Basic (below standards), and Far Below Basic (well below standards). Students scoring at the Proficient or Advanced level have met state standards in that content area. Note: To protect student privacy, scores are not shown when the number of students tested is 10 or less.



California Fitness Test
All students qualified for testing (2) scored in the healthy fitness zone on all six fitness standards.

      

IV. Student Performance Data Summary

Due to the limited number of students taking the standardized test, results will be reported as a summary. In addition, there is not an API measure due to the small number of students taking the STAR test. Calculation of the total percentage of students meeting/exceeding grade level standards in our school follows:
Year 2004-2005
Number of Students = 9; The average for all students was basic, and or proficient abilities on the STAR.
Year 2005-2006
Number of Students = 9; The aveage for all students was basic, and or proficient ablilities on the STAR test.


Note: 30% of the children have been at the school for three years or more. Therefore, nearly 60% of the students tested have not been a part of our school program long enough to reflect on the long term effects of the school’s academic program.


Criteria for Determining Levels of Student Performance
K-1 A summary of achievement data gathered from multiple measures that include criterion-referenced and standardized assessment data, portfolio and performance assessment summaries will be used to determine whether students meet grade level standards (MGLS). MGLS are evaluated using a four-point rubric with three as proficient.
2-8 Achievement data, including STAR data, district criterion referenced and standardized assessment data, portfolio and performance assessment summaries will be used to determine whether students meet grade level standards. MGLS are evaluated using a four-point rubric with three as proficient.

Analysis of Data
When analyzing data with a limited number of students we find that it is most helpful to look at each student individually in order to assess their progress toward meeting grade level standards. Data analysis is an ongoing process that is accomplished individually by teachers, in addition to teachers meeting with other teachers and the administrator. The STAR data recorded above shows a need for a continued emphasis on reading and language arts in addition to mathematics. This has been corroborated through a review of students’ cum records. It has also been determined that there is a need for more emphasis on problem solving, plus a better understanding and application of basic mathematical concepts.
