As a Title I Program Improvement School we have embarked on a scripted journey of improvement. Teachers, students, and parents are offered the opportunity to get involved and to participate in additional classes and training all geared to improve instruction and student achievement. Already, much has been accomplished in the areas of language arts and mathematics South Whittier School District Telechron Avenue Whittier, CA (562) District Governing Board Sylvia V. Macias, President Jan Baird, Clerk Deborah Pacheco, Member Francisco Santana, Member Sharon Stys, Member Teachers have been trained on effective instructional strategies that benefit all students from a variety of research experts such as the Marzano Group, CORE, McMillan McGraw Hill, Action Learning Systems, Thinking Maps, GLAD and our very own district experts, Curriculum Coaches. Children are benefiting from the implementation of special grouping and instructional strategies that allow all students equal access to the curriculum as well as the differentiated instruction they need to succeed. Our parents are involved through PTA, School Site Council, and parent trainings offered at the school and throughout the district. At Loma Vista we will continue our quest to send forth well-rounded, educated individuals ready to meet the challenges of the twenty-first century. We are grounded in the beliefs that all students can learn and that failure is not acceptable.

2 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 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 For more information about the LCFF or LCAP, see the CDE LCFF Web page at For additional information about the school, parents/guardians and community members should contact the school at (562) or the district office Student Enrollment by Level Level Kindergarten Ungraded Elementary 11 Total Enrollment Student Enrollment by Group Group Percent of Total Enrollment Black or African American 0.6 Filipino 0.6 Hispanic or Latino 97 Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander 0.2 White 1.7 Socioeconomically Disadvantaged 95.4 English Learners 64.3 Students with Disabilities 13.1 Foster Youth 1.5 A.
