all in strict compliance with all applicable
state and federal laws and regulations. The

Resources Office.
Mission Statement
In a community of shared values, we the parents, staff, and community of Hedenkamp
Elementary School create lifelong learners of high character who meet and exceed State and
District Standards through quality instruction in a safe and positive environment.
As reflected in the Single Site Plan, goals are established to ensure that all students reach
proficiency in all areas of Local Measures. Data from site assessments in literacy skills and math
are administered every 6-8 weeks to gage student progress and drive instruction.
The Spanish Immersion Program, established during the opening year of 2003-04, will continue to
increase by one grade each year until it is offered kindergarten-sixth grade. Hedenkamp now
offers the Spanish Dual Immersion Program for all grade levels, kindergarten through sixth grade.
Entering the 2014-15 school year, Hedenkamp will have approximately 400 students enrolled in
Dual Immersion, about 40% of our population.
School wide, each classroom offers a consistent, rigorous, standards aligned curriculum. Grade
Level Teams collaborate for 2-3 hours monthly to develop and implement a consistent standards
plan in all four core academic areas.
A focus for this school year continues to be technology and how we integrate technology with
instruction. Each teacher now has their own laptop computer to support teaching and learning.
To begin the 2012-2013 school year, Hedenkamp purchased 100 new computers to be placed in
all classrooms in 3rd-6th grades. The 2015-16 school year will bring additional technology
including iPads, Tablets and Laptops for student use. In addition, Hedenkamp will continue our
efforts to use technology to better communicate with school staff as well as to our families and
the general Hedenkamp community.

District Profile
Located between the City of San Diego and United States/Mexico International Border, the Chula Vista Elementary School District is the
largest K-6 district in the state. The District currently serves more than 29,200 students. The District serves a community that features a
blend of residential areas, recreational facilities, open space, and light industry. The District currently operates 45 elementary schools
(including 5 dependent charter schools). In addition, two independent charter schools operate through CVESD. Five charter schools also
enroll middle school students, and two of those serve high school students as well.
Students experience a rigorous 21st century learning environment that is rooted in effective teaching practices and high-quality
instruction. Students receive an education that nurtures every child’s imagination, intellect, and sense of inquiry. Working together, we
will harness the potential of a collective intelligence rich with the imagination and creativity necessary for students to become
difference makers in the community.
The student population is ethnically diverse and is composed of African-American (4%), Asian (3%), Filipino (11%), Latino/Hispanic
(67%), other (1%), Pacific Islander (.6%), and White (14%). More than one-third of the students in the District are classified English
Learners, and 45% qualify for free and reduced-priced meal programs.
LOCAL CONTROL AND ACCOUNTABILITY PLAN (LCAP)
School districts are required to produce Local Control and Accountability Plans (LCAPs), demonstrating how increased resources are
linked to meeting the needs of all students. In tandem, the funding formula and accountability plans increase local decision making
authority while also enhancing transparency and accountability. Here’s where our parents, teachers and students come into play.
Together, they will help our schools determine academic priorities in support of student achievement. The state’s shift to local control is
very much aligned to how we have long operated in the Chula Vista Elementary School District, where student-based decision-making is
an expectation. Now, we will have additional resources to help us close the achievement gap.
About the SARC
2013-14 Student Enrollment by Group
Every school in California is required by state law to publish a School
Accountability Report Card (SARC), by February 1 of each year. 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 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.

Quality, Currency, Availability of Textbooks and Instructional Materials (School Year 2014-15)
The Chula Vista Elementary School District follows the State’s curriculum cycle to adopt updated, high quality textbooks and related materials. The
evaluation and adoption of textbooks and instructional materials is based on recommendations by committees of our District’s school staffs and
community members.
Students are provided with an adequate supply of Board-approved textbooks for all subject areas. The reading/language arts and mathematics
curricula are aligned with California Common Core Standards.. All of our students have access to textbooks and supportive instructional materials in all
core subjects, which are in good condition. Core materials are available in both English and Spanish. An inventory of books is warehoused centrally for
growth needs at the schools.
The District’s vision is to prepare students to succeed in the 21st Century and is committed to providing students with 21st century tools, and the
necessary infrastructure to support said tools. The District and Hedenkamp have also invested in software applications to assist with formative and
summative assessments, literacy skills, mathematics and language acquisition. In addition, teachers are integrating technology tools to facilitate day to
day tasks such as attendance, report cards and electronic communication.

Types of Services Funded at Anne and William Hedenkamp Elementary School
Before school and after school programs are offered to improve student achievement. Students are identified using quarterly assessments as well as
weekly formative assessments. In addition, we have supported our Library Media Center with additional funding to open our Library before school
allowing students to complete homework assignments as well as using computer assisted programs in reading and mathematics.
This year, we are continuing to upgrade technology at Hedenkamp. It is of utmost importance that we provide our students with the skills necessary
to achieve at very high levels. To do so, we must provide our students with technology including computers and software to allow students to create,
problem solve and design. In addition, digital and video photography to enhance presentation skills must be requisites to enter seventh grade.
Professional Development provided for Teachers at Anne and William Hedenkamp Elementary School
Each year, the Instructional Leadership Team (ILT) plans professional development activities based on student achievement data and the Single Site
Plan goals. The ILT Professional Development plan is presented to the entire staff for approval. Professional development opportunities are offered on
Friday modified days as well as after school hours.
Topics for 2014-2015 included:
1. Common Core Writing Standards
2. Six Traits of Writing
3. Conceptual Development in Mathematics
4. Support for English Language Learners in reading comprehension through academic vocabulary development
5. Gradual Release of Responsibility
6. Listening and Speaking Common Core Standards
Topics for 2013-14 included:
1. Continued analysis of statewide and site student assessment data
2. Enhancement of GLAD strategies
3. Six Traits of Writing
4. Gradual Release of Responsibility
5. Technology Support including Promethean Technology
For the 2015-2016 school year, Hedenkamp, Camarena, Rohr, Daly, Allen, Finney, Halecrest, Loma Verde, McMillin, Rogers and Olympic View will join
together to improve our students' writing. Our students will engage in different writing prompts and teachers will come together to discuss the
students' writing and how we can improve writing in our schools. Teachers at each of these sites will provide the Professional Development for their
colleagues. Teachers will have the opportunity to choose professional development sessions that best meet their needs.
We intend to create a "cumulative effect" of instruction; improving each year on the strategies learned and implemented in each grade level.
Ultimately, students leaving our schools will have learned the necessary skills and strategies to be outstanding writers.
