Mission

"To ensure that all LAUSD students are enrolled, attending, engaged and on-track to graduate"

Volume 5, Issue 4
January/February 2015 

 

 

Happy 2015! We have already been back five weeks since your well-deserved winter break. I sincerely hope that you all enjoyed your time off. The second semester has begun, and we are now over half way through this school year. Our 100th instructional day of school was February 2nd. We accomplished so much in the first semester of this year, including the hiring of well over 100 new PSA Counselors. It is exciting to receive positive feedback from our new staff regarding the new counselor trainings. I am looking forward to meeting with everyone again in May during our unit Professional Development.

We are all currently working to improve the accuracy of our attendance records and reports in MiSiS. We are also collaborating with the MiSiS team, as well as Budget Services and Financial Planning to ensure that attendance records maintained on paper rosters are successfully transferred into the MiSiS system. Throughout the year, it is essential to be well-informed of policies and procedures that affect our students. Please continue to support your schools to comply with District policy and state law regarding attendance taking and record maintenance.

PSA Counselors should also support our schools to comply with policy, procedures, and the legal requirements as they relate to how and when a student may be transferred or checked out of school. All schools must comply with the protocols outlined in the policy, including due diligence related to determining a student's residence address, and offer a continuing enrollment or other permit when appropriate. We must work in our students' best interest to support school stability whenever possible and timely transfer and enrollment of students when required. Please find in the next section some reference materials entitled,
Student Residing Outside of School Boundaries: Excerpts from the Attendance Policy and Procedures Manual. These references will assist you and your schools in following procedures related to student residence issues and/or transfers.    


As Spring approaches, and we begin counting down to the end of this school year, please know that I continue to promote and advocate for the amazing work that you do. In our schools, ESCs, and Programs throughout the District, each one of you is helping to build and strengthen the child welfare and attendance safety net for our students and families, toward the goal of graduation for all students. Thank you again for ALL that you do.

 

Respectfully,

Erika Torres

Director

Collaborating for Kindness

Taryn Larribas, PSA Counselor at Los Angeles Academy Middle School, coordinated an amazing food collection for needy families in the month of December.  She was initially approached by the Parent Center at the school for assistance, and she gladly accepted the challenge with gusto!  She organized a food collection at the school from December 1st through the 17th and it turned out to be a great success.
 

In preparation for the food collection, Ms. Larribas presented the details (with administrative approval) to the faculty.  She also created and distributed fliers to the teachers to display on their classroom doors.  In addition, she met with the Leadership Club to enlist their help in promoting and coordinating the event.  The Leadership students delivered PA announcements three times a week and created posters advertising the event.  The collection was promoted as a competition between each grade level- the homerooms that donated/collected the most amount of food would win a donut party on December 19th.  The Yearbook Club also documented the collection by taking photos that will be featured in the school's yearbook.

All of the goods collected and donated by students and families of LA Academy were distributed to the identified families in the school community.  Families were identified through their Student Residency Questionnaire and were also sponsored in the schools "Secret Snowflake Sponsorship Program."  Thirty families were given the opportunity to pick up gift baskets which included turkeys, gift cards, and canned goods from the school.  All of the families were appreciative and happy to receive such a generous gift.  Way to go Ms. Larribas!

Winter Semester Attendance Recognitions

On December 17, 2014 PSAC Rosalba Gonzalez, in collaboration with Principal Sally Zuniga, teachers and staff, held a pizza party celebration for the highest attending advisories at Diego Rivera Performing Arts Community School (PACS).
 

Data from the winter semester identified advisories with the highest attendance rates per grade level. Winners were invited for a lunch of pizza, a beverage and chips.  A decorated banner and signs for each classroom were displayed and winning classrooms received a special certificate.  PSAC Gonzalez reiterated benefits of good school attendance, such as higher academic achievements, higher graduation rates and building a positive school climate.  PSAC Gonzalez also stressed the continued opportunities for recognition for those students who continue to achieve proficient and advanced levels of attendance.

Winning advisory teachers, Mrs. Marly Zavala, Mr. David Ammentorp, Mrs. Adriana Gomez and Mrs. Luz Reynozo stepped up to the microphone to offer their students their congratulations.  Many students expressed their appreciation to staff and teachers for the event. PSAC Gonzalez informed everyone that without the support of the mini-grants that are offered through APSAC, we would not have been able to reward and recognize our students.  In addition, the local Domino's Pizza made a contribution to the celebration by donating ten pizzas and offering PACS a discounted rate to purchase the additional pizzas. The pizza celebration made for a great afternoon filled with laughter and cheer, with students, teachers and staff smiling ear to ear.

Sponsor a Child Program 
Liat Broome, PSA Counselor at Noble Elementary, serves one of the most economically impoverished neighborhoods in our District.  While Liat works hard to raise awareness about attendance as well as case manage students with patterns of excessive absences, she also focuses on nurturing the community and arranging for charitable donations to bring the families needed essentials and unaffordable extras.

Last semester, in preparation for the holiday season, Liat compiled a list of the neediest students on campus, and then recruited gift-giving sponsors from her own network of friends. 

 

Liat met with each student individually and explained to them that Santa needed to know exactly what he or she wanted for Christmas.  Potential sponsors received a list of the children's wishes.  Seventy generous donors provided bicycles, skateboards, Legos, shoes, sporting goods, giftcards, dolls, and much more.

 

Posing as Santa's Helper, Liat called each child to her office on the last day of school before winter break and presented them with their gifts. Reactions from the 

children included: "Santa really is real!", "we are so lucky", and "wow my wish came true."  Parents were likewise moved by the school's efforts.  One parent commented that "this is going to be the first real Christmas my daughter has ever had", and "this started out as a horrible day, but now it is an amazing day."  One parent even expressed, "I hope I win the lottery and can one day give back to Noble, the way you have given to me."

Non-Profit Organization BookEnds Donate Books
Charles W. Barrett Elementary School staff and students were excited to have guests from BookEnds, a non-profit organization, donate over 3,000 books to their school on December 8, 2014.  As an added treat, the BookEnds organization was accompanied by 80 fourth graders from a local private school.  Eagerly, these fourth grade students gave of their time by participating in "read aloud" activities.  The Kindergarteners, first graders and second graders were wide-eyed as they listened to the enthusiastic young readers.  Energy was high and students appeared excited to have these young visitors explore imaginary destinations that come with an interesting book.  By the end, all of the students were allowed to select a book of their choice.

As an added bonus, the Barrett students who were members of the 96% Attendance Club were given a bonus book for their efforts.  The staff at Barrett considered it a joy to see so many students beaming with pride as they held their new or gently used books that they were able to take home that day.  The remaining books donated will be rewarded to students with a 96% attendance rate or higher through opportunity drawings conducted throughout the remaining months of the school year.  These opportunity drawings are held on Mondays, Fridays, "milestone days" (such as the 100th day, 125th day, etc.) and/or days before or after a holiday.  Ms. Jera Turner, Principal and Ms. Angela Kimble, PSA Counselor are truly grateful to the BookEnds Organization for partnering with their school community to effect higher academic and attendance achievement through the pages of a treasured book.

New Year's Bash

Our own ESC West, PSA Counselor, Ms. Chidimma V. Obioha at Budlong Avenue Elementary School encourages and motivates all students to come to school every day and on time.  Historically, the holiday season has had the lowest attendance rates.  In order to combat the spike in absenteeism during this time, Budlong Avenue Elementary School hosts an annual New Year's Bash to celebrate the accomplishments of those students who have perfect attendance for the months of November, December, and the first week back to school after winter break.  This year's event was held on January 16, 2015.  

Pictured above: Students Katerra Thompson and Janell Hunt

The New Year's Bash is a fun-filled event complete with music, dancing, face-painting, popcorn, juice and cotton-candy. Additionally, each attendee gets to take home one New Year's party favor such as a party hat, tiara, or necklace.  The goal of the New Year's Bash is to promote the importance of daily attendance, reduce the number of absences during the holiday season, and recognize students for their success in achieving perfect attendance during this time.  Ms. Obioha had been awarded APSAC's Faith Morales Mini Grant for the New Year's Bash at Budlong Avenue Elementary School.             

ATTENDANCE IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (AIP) 


On Monday, February 2, 2015 our traditional calendar schools celebrated the 100th day of school. This is a milestone for students with 4 absences or less (that have been enrolled since the first instructional day) as they can now meet the Attendance Performance Meter Goal. Many of the Attendance Improvement Counselors (AIC) implemented activities and incentives for students, parents and staff.
 

AIC's are also implementing the theme of Reflections for the New Year as they prepare for the 100th Day of School Celebrations.  All stakeholders were taught the importance of reflecting on obstacles they have overcome, their accomplishments and making the  necessary changes to reach their year end goals.

CITY PARTNERSHIP

Boyle Heights Tech Center
Jessica White is an amazing young woman who came to the Boyle Heights Tech Center after being referred by the Nursing Family Partnership program.   Jessica was in her early stages of pregnancy and decided that she wanted to do better for herself and knew that obtaining a high school diploma and/or getting a job was a high priority now that she was expecting.  Prior to enrolling in the WIA program, Jessica described her home life as chaotic and described herself as a "bad" kid who got herself into trouble.  Jessica was in Juvenile Hall and in and out of different schools which resulted in her eventually dropping out.

Jessica now appreciates the support that she receives from the Boyle Heights Tech Center staff.  She owes much gratitude to her Career Coach, Ms. Mary D Miller who has offered her the nurturance and guidance that she very much needed.  She loves the "non-judgmental, positive" environment that the center offers as well as the opportunities that she has to obtain her high school diploma and develop her career readiness skills. 


After returning from maternity leave, Jessica enrolled into the onsite Five Keys Charter School and is one of their star students.  She recently received the "Excellence Award" for her history class. She is also involved in community projects and is fully committed to getting a high school diploma. She ultimately wants to own her own business which would hopefully involve some of her family members.

Building a Bridge to College for At Risk Youth

Gardena High School's Diploma Project Promotion Counselor Linda Ward Russell, has turned her efforts to assist "at risk" seniors by providing support with ongoing recruitment and transitional services to college by establishing a strong relationship with the Office of Outreach and School Relations from El Camino Community College.  This was as a result of seeking transitional support services for students on her caseload who are facing life challenges including homelessness, foster placement, special educational needs and returnee juvenile camp placement. Student ambassadors from this community college regularly visit senior and junior Advisory classes to share information about college and career programs, support services and the choices and experiences that have contributed to their success.
 

In addition, Gardena  HS has been assigned an Outreach Counselor who meets with applying students, guides them through the assessment, orientation, financial aid process and assists them with their educational plan on campus.  In collaboration with the Office of Outreach and School Relations, the Diploma Project is providing an array of services designed to encourage the enrollment, engagement and transfer of students with economic, social, educational and language barriers to graduation and college success.

 

Step in the Right Direction

On December 19, 2014 the Diploma Project counselors collaborated with an organization called Shoes That Fit, located in Claremont California, in an effort to provide a brand new pair of shoes for the entire Black Student Union Club at Fremont High School.  This nonprofit organization focuses on helping kids improve their self-esteem and fit in at school by eliminating one of poverty's most visible and debilitating marks while decreasing potential bullying.  We would like to express our appreciation to Shoes That FIt for their wonderful contribution to our students.

Throughout the week of December 15th, the Foster Youth Achievement Program (FYAP) partnered with the Homeless Education Program, Wellness Centers, and other units within Student Health and Human Services, to give away approximately 1,000 backpacks at a Student Holiday Extravaganza event. Backpacks were donated by the Los Angeles School Police Department (LASPD) and included school supplies, a jacket, and a sports ball or a Crayola paint/activity kit inside.

The LASPD graciously donated and hosted a fun-filled and interactive event for students at seven school-sites in each LAUSD Board Member's area that included a visit from Santa Claus. Ford Blvd Elementary in East L.A. was one of the seven schools selected for the Student Holiday Extravaganza event. Araceli Marcelo, FYAP Counselor, with the assistance of Jennifer Rios-Zambrano, FYAP Lead Counselor and the school's administration helped coordinate this event and ensured that students who are in need, homeless, or in foster care participated.

AB 216 Graduation Exemption Eligibility 

Did you know that this law applies to foster youth as well as all probation youth?  Education Code Section 51225.2 states:  For purposes of this section, "pupil in foster care" means any child who has been removed from his or her home pursuant to Section 309 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, is the subject of a petition filed under Section 300 or 602 of the Welfare and Institutions Code, or has been removed from his or her home and is the subject of a petition filed under Section 300 or 602 of the Welfare and Institutions Code.

 

This means that all students with a petition filed under Welfare and Institutions Code

Student Raymundo Zambrano and Board Member 2 Monica Garcia

Sections 300, 309 and 602 are considered foster youth under this law.   Once a youth is found eligible for AB216 Graduation, no school district can revoke the rights to graduate under the guidelines of AB216.  In order to graduate under AB216, a youth must have successfully completed two years of high school, completed the minimum state requirements, and passed the California High School Exit Exam, unless they qualify for a special education waiver.  Completion of all steps will ensure a youth qualifies under AB216, Step 1- Academic Counselor Reviews Transcripts, Step 2 -Determination if youth has attended two years of High School, Step-3 Analysis completed by Academic Counselor deciding if youth cannot complete district requirements in a reasonable time, Step 4-Youth must be provided written notification from Academic counselor of their eligibility, Step 5- the educational rights holder decides if it is in the best interest of the  youth.  An education rights holder can change their decision as to whether or not to allow the youth to graduate under AB216 at any time prior to the youth's graduation.  For more information about this law and guidelines for the Foster Youth Achievement Program click here.
