Specifically, DataQuest is a dynamic system that provides reports for accountability (e.g. Academic Performance Index [API], Adequate Yearly Progress [AYP], test data, enrollment, graduates, dropouts, course enrollments, staffing, and data regarding English learners.

Internet access is available at public libraries and other locations that are publicly accessible (e.g. the California State Library). Access to the Internet at libraries and other locations is generally provided on a first-come, first-served basis.Other use restrictions include the hours of operation, the length of time that a workstation may be used (depending on availability), the types of software programs available on a workstation, and the ability to print documents.

School Description and Mission Statement This section provides information about the school's goals and programs.

Tenderloin Community School (TCS) is a unique preK-5th grade public school with community resources located right on the school complex. The school is made up of a District Child Development Center for 3 and 4 year olds, the K-5 grade school, and community resources including a dental clinic and mental health services. The staff is committed to working with the parents and utilizing all available resources to provide students with the best integrated program possible. The mission of TCS is to create a learning community where teachers, staff, parents, community members, and children work collaboratively to foster academic excellence, encourage each child to reach his/her full potential, and create critical thinkers through an integrated hands-on curriculum.

Opportunities for Parental Involvement This section provides information about opportunities for parents to become involved with school activities.

TCS invites all parents to participate in their child's education through service on the Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) or volunteering in their child's classroom. Parents are also invited and involved with the elected School Site Council, the volunteer English Language Advisory Council, and the Student Success Team. The school communicates with a bimonthly principal's newsletter and classroom newsletters. The Bay Area Women's and Children's Center offers parenting workshops twice a month on various topics of parent interest. Back-to-School Night in September is an excellent opportunity for all parents to learn about the curriculum. All parents are actively encouraged to attend the Parent-Teacher conferences in the fall and the spring.

Standardized Testing and Reporting ProgramThe Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Program consists of several key components, including the California Standards Tests (CSTs); The California Modified Assessment (CMA), and the California Alternate Perfomance Assessment (CAPA). The CSTs show how well students are doing in relation to the state content standards. The CSTsinclude English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics in grades 2 through 11; science in grades 5, 8 and 9-11; and history-social science in grades 8 and 10-11. The CAPA includes ELA, mathematics, and science in grades 2-11, and for science for grades 5, 8 and 10. The CAPA is given to those students with significant cognitive disabilities which prevent them from taking either the CSTs with accommodations or modifications or the CMA with accommodations. The CMAincludes ELA and mathematics for grades 3-8 and science in grade 5 and is an alternative assessment that is based on modified achievement standards. The CMA is designed to assess those students whose disabilities preclude them from achieving grade-level proficiency on an assessment of the California content standards with or without accommodations.Student scores are reported as performance levels. Detailed information regarding the STAR program results for eachgrade and performance level, including percents of students not tested, can be found on the CDE Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) results web site at http://star.cde.ca.gov. Program information regarding the STAR program can be found in the Explaining 2008 STAR Program Summary Results to the Public guide at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/sr/documents/starpkt5intrpts.pdf. Note: Scores are not shown 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 toprotect student privacy. In no case shall any group score be reported that would deliberately or inadvertently make public the score or performance of any individual student.

Section X - AccountabilityAcademic Performance IndexThe Academic Performance Index (API) is an annual measure of the academic performance and progress of schoolsin California. API scores range from 200 to 1,000, with a statewide target of 800. Detailed information about the APIcan be found at the CDE Web site at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/ap/.

API Ranks - Three-Year ComparisonThis table displays the school's statewide and similar schools API ranks. The statewide API rank ranges form 1 to 10. A statewide rank of 1 means that the school has an API score in the lowest 10 percent of all schools in the state, while astatewide rank of 10 means that the school has an API score in the highest 10 percent of all schools in the state. The similar schools API rank reflects how a school compares to 100 statistically matched "similar schools". A similar schoolrank of 1 means that the school's academic performance is comparable to the lowest performing 10 schools of the 100similar schools, while a similar schools rank of 10 means that the school's academic performance is better than at least 90 of the 100 similar schools.

National Assessment of Educational ProgressThe National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is a nationally representative assessment of what America's students know and can do in various subject areas. Assessments are conducted periodically in mathematics, reading,science, writing, the arts, civics, economics, geography, and U.S. history. Student scores for reading and mathematics arereported as performance levels (i.e., basic, proficient, and advanced) and the participation of students with disabilities(SD) and English language learners (ELL) is reported based on three levels (identified, excluded, and assessed). Detailedinformation regarding the NAEP results for each grade, performance level, and participation rate can be found on the National Assessment of Educational Progress Web page at http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/.

Note: Only a sample group of California's schools and districts participate in the NAEP testing cycle. Therefore, students in any particular school or district may not be included in these results. The NAEP reflects state test results and is not reflective of either the LEA or the individual school. Comparisons of student performance on the NAEP and student performance on the Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) program assessments cannot be made without an understanding of the key differences between the two assessment programs. For example, the NAEP only assessesgrades 4, 8 and 12 and for long-term trends assesses grades 9, 13 and 17. Additionally, the NAEP only provides state tesresults for grades 4 and 8. The California Standards Tests (CSTs) are based on a different set of standards than the NAEPassessments. For example, the NAEP is not aligned with California academic content and achievement standards and,

therefore, does not necessarily reflect the curriculum and instruction to which students are exposed in the classroom. The NAEP assesses reading and writing separately, while the CSTs assess English-language arts (ELA), encompassingreading as well as writing conventions, spelling, and grammar. Scores on the CSTs and other assessments are not directlycomparable to those on the NAEP. The averages and percentages presented are estimates based on samples of students rather than on entire populations. Finally, the questions students respond to are only a sample of the knowledge and skillscovered by the NAEP frameworks. Information on the differences between NAEP and CST can be found on the CDENational Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/tg/nr/.
