2019–2020 School Accountability Report Card

School Accountability Report Card

Reported Using Data from the 2019–2020 School Year

California Department of Education
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 and 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 https://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/sa/.
  • For more information about the LCFF or LCAP, see the CDE LCFF web page at https://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/lc/.
  • For additional information about the school, parents/guardians and community members should contact the school principal or the district office.

DataQuest

DataQuest is an online data tool located on the CDE DataQuest web page at https://dq.cde.ca.gov/dataquest/ that contains additional information about this school and comparisons of the school to the district and the county. Specifically, DataQuest is a dynamic system that provides reports for accountability (e.g., test data, enrollment, high school graduates, dropouts, course enrollments, staffing, and data regarding English learners).

California School Dashboard

The California School Dashboard (Dashboard) https://www.caschooldashboard.org/ reflects California’s new accountability and continuous improvement system and provides information about how LEAs and schools are meeting the needs of California’s diverse student population. The Dashboard contains reports that display the performance of LEAs, schools, and student groups on a set of state and local measures to assist in identifying strengths, challenges, and areas in need of improvement.

School Description and Mission Statement (School Year 2020–2021)

Welcome to Midway School, where we encourage and celebrate high academic achievement for all students. We are a small single school/district with
approximately 80 students in grades Transitional Kindergarten through Eighth. We are located in Fellows, California, with a proud hard working rural community on
the west end of Kern County. We have over a hundred-year history with a beautiful safe campus.



Midway's small-school setting allows for reduced class sizes and individualized attention for all students. Our students participate in academic, athletic, and social
events with other similar small schools throughout the school year. In addition, all students participate in a variety of grade-level appropriate field trips. We also
have a strong accountability program (TIGER Way) that encourages all students to achieve high expectations with built-in recognition and rewards: rallies, field
trips, Students of the month, and academic award assemblies.



We are fortunate to have many experienced and knowledgeable teachers eager to make a positive impact on our students. We believe in a student-centered
approach, which provides an atmosphere in which a child’s social, emotional, and intellectual needs are equally important. Our staff consists of one
Superintendent/Principal, six full-time teachers, one part-time RSP teacher, one District Secretary, one Maintenance and transportation Director and three
classroom aides. All staff contribute to making Midway School the best that it can be through monthly In-Service meetings.
Please feel free to contact us for any additional information about our wonderful "small school on the hill." We always welcome visitors, parents, community
members and new volunteers.

School Facility Conditions and Planned Improvements

Midway School places a strong emphasis on ensuring the safety of all students and staff members. The school’s maintenance/custodial staff of 5 keeps the
facilities in compliance with all federal and state health and safety regulations. The TK-8 campus is currently comprised of 8 classrooms, one staff room, library,
auditorium, gym, fitness center, computer lab, and two playgrounds. The chart below displays the results of the most recent school facilities inspection.
Midway School has also been recently been modernized and is mostly in good repair. We are currently looking for projects that we can do within our budget to
complete projects that were not included in the modernization project. Prop 39 has passed and that will give us a money flow for 5 years. Midway School just recently
completed a plan that has to do with conservation of energy: Insulation, updating thermostats, sealing cracks, and changing to new more efficient light bulbs throughout the campus.

State Priority: Pupil Achievement

The SARC provides the following information relevant to the State priority: Pupil Achievement (Priority 4):

  • Statewide assessments (i.e., California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress [CAASPP] System, which includes the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments for students in the general education population and the California Alternate Assessments [CAAs] for English language arts/literacy [ELA] and mathematics given in grades three through eight and grade eleven. Only eligible students may participate in the administration of the CAAs. CAAs items are aligned with alternate achievement standards, which are linked with the Common Core State Standards [CCSS] for students with the most significant cognitive disabilities); and

  • The percentage of students who have successfully completed courses that satisfy the requirements for entrance to the University of California and the California State University, or career technical education sequences or programs of study.

Note: The 2019–2020 data are not available. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Executive Order N-30-20 was issued which waived the requirement for statewide testing for the 2019–2020 school year.
Note: Percentages are not calculated 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.
Note: ELA and mathematics test results include the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessment and the CAA. The "Percent Met or Exceeded" is calculated by taking the total number of students who met or exceeded the standard on the Smarter Balanced Summative Assessment plus the total number of students who met the standard (i.e., achieved Level 3-Alternate) on the CAAs divided by the total number of students who participated in both assessments.

Parents and the community are very supportive of special events throughout the school year. Midway School offers opportunities for parents to meet in our
library and give input and organize events. Example of events and support they participate in are: volunteering in classrooms, fund-raisers, field trip chaperones,
Back-To-School Night, parent-teacher conferences, awards assemblies, Red Ribbon Week, athletic events, fall carnival, Santa's Secret Shop, book fair and
Christmas program. The school also informs parents of student progress through our on-line grading system (Jupiter Ed), Progress Reports, Report Cards, Parent
Conferences requested by parents or teachers, Teacher/Principal letters, telephone calls, and our school-wide notification system "SchoolWise."

Note: The 2019–2020 suspensions and expulsions rate data are not comparable to prior year data because the 2019–2020 school year is a partial school year due to the COVID-19 crisis. As such, it would be inappropriate to make any comparisons in rates of suspensions and expulsions in the 2019–2020 school year compared to prior years.

School Safety Plan (School Year 2020–2021)

A comprehensive school safety plan is in place to ensure a secure, peaceful, and clean environment for the school community. The plan was reviewed on April 14,
2020 by our Board of Trustees. Our Safety Committee, which consists of the Superintendent, local fire department, parents, and all school staff were involved in
reviewing the plan. The school’s disaster preparedness plan identifies procedures to follow during emergencies and natural disasters. Emergency drills, including fire,
earthquake, and intruder on campus are conducted monthly and annually. We have an automated system (Schoolwise) that can alert all parents of emergencies.
Faculty members, administrators, and yard duty monitors are responsible for supervising students before and after school, at recess, and during lunch. All visitors are
required to check-in and sign out at the office and wear a badge at all times.
