III MEASURABLE STUDENT OUTCOMES AND OTHER USES OF DATA<br />
MEASURABLE STUDENT OUTCOMES<br />
There are school-wide goals and objectives that <strong>ARISE</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> holds for itself<br />
and all of its students, as well as individual areas in which we expect each one of our<br />
students to demonstrate proficiency prior to graduation. The school's overall goals<br />
and objectives include the following:<br />
• Of <strong>ARISE</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong>'s incoming ninth graders, a minimum of 80% will<br />
graduate within five years.<br />
• 90% of our students will make progress, as measured against themselves, on<br />
standardized, state tests, including the CAHSEE (for those who initially fail and<br />
retake the exam), CELDT, and STAR tests.<br />
• All graduates will pass the CAHSEE.<br />
• All <strong>ARISE</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> graduates will meet UC eligibility requirements as well<br />
as additional course requirements (see chart on page 8).<br />
• All graduates will successfully complete and present a portfolio of their work<br />
that demonstrates mastery of key skill and content areas aligned with the<br />
California state standards (see portfolio requirements below).<br />
• Every student will take at least two college level courses by the time he or she<br />
graduates.<br />
• The school will maintain a minimum of a 90% attendance rate.<br />
• All graduates will have taken either the SAT or ACT.<br />
• All <strong>ARISE</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> graduates will participate in internships at organizations<br />
throughout the Bay Area that support the academic and career interests of<br />
<strong>ARISE</strong> students.<br />
• All <strong>ARISE</strong> <strong>High</strong> <strong>School</strong> graduates will participate in educational experiences<br />
outside of the classroom, both during the school year as well as at least two<br />
summers.<br />
• In terms of demonstrating particular academic skills and content knowledge,<br />
every student will produce evidence of their proficiency in specific content areas<br />
which they will then defend before a panel of educators from both the school<br />
and the college, as well as outside experts. Students will be required, at<br />
minimum, to create portfolio presentations and projects for defense in the<br />
following areas:<br />
• Scientific inquiry<br />
• Mathematical thinking<br />
• Literary analysis<br />
• Historical research and understanding<br />
• Artistic expression<br />
