Emilie J. Ross Middle California Department of Education 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), 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 http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/sa/. View this SARC online at the school and/or LEA Web sites. For more information about the LCFF or LCAP, see the CDE LCFF Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/lc/.

School Facility Conditions and Planned Improvements - Most Recent Year School Facility Conditions and Planned Improvements - Most Recent Year The district takes great efforts to ensure that all schools are clean, safe, and functional. To assist in this effort, the district uses a facility inspection instrument developed by the State of California Office of Public School Construction. The results of this inspection are listed below under School Facility Good Repair Status. Age and Condition of Facilities Ross Middle School is currently comprised of 12 permanent classrooms, 10 re-locatable classrooms, an office building, a staff lounge, a multi-purpose/cafeteria room, a gymnasium, an after-school program office and two athletic fields. The school added a new library/media center, a computer lab, and new science classrooms during the 2008-09 school year. Maintenance & Repair District maintenance staff ensures that the repairs necessary to keep the school in good repair and working order are completed in a timely manner. A web-based work order process is used to ensure efficient service and that emergency repairs are given the highest priority. The table below displays the results of the most recent school facilities and safety inspection, collected in May 2014. Cleaning Process & Schedule The district governing board has adopted cleaning standards for all schools in the district. The principal works daily with the custodial staff to develop cleaning schedules that ensure a clean and safe school. Deferred Maintenance Budget The district participates in the State School Deferred Maintenance Program, which provides matching funds on a dollar for dollar basis, to assist school districts with expenditures for major repair or replacement of existing school building components. Typically this includes roofing, plumbing, heating, electrical systems, interior or exterior painting, and floor systems.
