Email Information System CONTINUOUS PROGRESS- A District-Wide Educational Program Located at Vista Grande Elementary School 667 Diablo Road, Danville 94526 For further information, please contact: Pat Hansen, Vista Grande Principal, (925) 552-5660 Philosophy The Continuous Progress Alternative Program recognizes the vital importance of a three-way partnership in education involving the parent, student and teacher. The students are expected to maintain a high standard of achievement commensurate with their individual skill levels. The approach is individualized in that students are challenged to work to the best of their ability as they move through the program. Ability grouping is done in language arts and mathematics. Academic instruction utilizes the traditional district curriculum in a continuous progress format. Emphasis is on the basic skills, academic tools and critical thinking skills for future learning. The program seeks to build within each student a sense of responsibility, self-discipline, confidence and pride in accomplishment in a nurturing environment. An assertive discipline code with logical consequences is maintained. This program requires a commitment from the staff, students and their parents working together for the development of each student. Frequent communication between parent and teacher is instrumental to the support systems of the program. Parents sign a support statement prior to enrollment in the program. Progress reports on students are provided by teachers. Conferences are held with the students, teacher and parents to review the student's progress, portfolio, and report cards. Parents share responsibility by being classroom and program volunteers. An annual contribution by Program parents pays for classroom para-educators, Spanish instructor, supplies, and other essentials deemed necessary by the classroom teacher and/or the Advisory Board. The total cooperation of home and school ensures the best possible learning environment for the students.

According to the latest teacher supply and demand projections, the nation will need to hire 2.2 million people to teach who are not currently teaching in the nation's elementary and secondary schools in the next decade. There is mounting concern about teacher preparation and the quality of the teaching force. Alarms have also been sounded about the numbers of teachers who are teaching "out of field", i.e., teaching a subject for which they have neither an academic major nor a minor.

Grouping/Scheduling School Administrators Article SCHOOL ADMINISTRATORS ARTICLE Alternative School Calendars: Smart Idea or Senseless Experiment? If American students are to compete effectively in a global economy, do they need to spend substantially more time in school? Would increasing the length of the school year or school day raise students' achievement, or would it be more advantageous to alter how we use the time we currently have? Many school systems are experimenting with alternative instructional schedules in an attempt to find out. Included: Year-round schools, later start times, the four-day week, trimesters, and more! Are American schools serving up a quality education for all students? Although we provide students more years of formal schooling than any other nation, our school year is short, usually only 180 days. The world's average is 200 to 220 days per year, and Japan's is 243. (See "Give Kids More School,"

About the Center Events Ethics Home Focus Areas ... Site Index Building Character By Miriam Schulman Photos by Charles Barry James A. Michener once said, "Character consists of what you do on the third and fourth tries." SCU graduates and alumni who are teachers at Northern California court-community schools put that idea into practice with a unique program combining education and values. When you walk into Howard Gipstein's classroom, you are reminded of your favorite English teacher, the one who plastered posters of Richard Brautigan, student poetry, and magazine photograph collages on every available surface. The first clue that this is not your average high school comes when Gipstein '98 checks to see that every pencil he has handed out is returned; he uses a special, numbered apparatus to make sure none of the boys walks off with what might, in his hands, become a makeshift knife. Gipstein teaches at the Osborne School, an educational institution on the grounds of Santa Clara County's Juvenile Hall. Here, the goal is to turn these pencils into weapons in a different kind of fight: the struggle to help young offenders reflect on their decisions and strengthen their character. All the teachers at Osborne are trained in the Character-Based Literacy (CBL) curriculum, developed at the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at Santa Clara University and supported in part by grants from the Markkula Family Foundation and the Walter S. Johnson Foundation. The curriculum, which combines teaching language arts with teaching values, is now in use at alternative and court-community institutions throughout Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, Monterey, Contra Costa, and Alameda counties. Beginning in 2003-04, two more California counties, including San Benito, will join the program. Through it, thousands of at-risk youth are challenged to improve their performance, both academically and ethically.
