Insight School of California - North Bay will operate as a full-time,
online public high school that will serve high school students who have
needs that may not be easily met in a traditional school or classroom
setting. We will provide a personalized, flexible, innovative, student-led,

supervision, and support from a team of highly-qualified
California-certified instructors. We will also provide a broad selection of
online courses aligned against California State standards, while providing
each student with a school laptop computer and printer, and also providing a
monthly internet stipend.
Every student deserves an opportunity to excel—an honest and real chance to
reach their potential. At Insight School of California - North Bay, our
mission is to help high school age students fulfill their individual
potential. Insight School of California - North Bay’s online learning
instructional model will leverage research-based 21st Century learning
skills in order to create self-motivated, competent, life-long learners who
participate effectively in society. We will provide an excellent educational
alternative for the thousands of high school age students within the
counties we serve who, for a variety of reasons, do not attend high school,
or may benefit from a non-traditional setting. |

III. School Climate
School Safety Plan (School Year
2008-09)
This section provides information about the school's
comprehensive safety plan.
Insight School of California - North Bay has done due diligence to
protect our students’ personal information and to guard against cyber
predators by installing anti-virus software and security settings on each
student’s school computer. Students are responsible for installing updates
and patches for antivirus software. Students are instructed along with their
parents not to change the security settings of their computers. Students
must sign an Acceptable Use Agreement governing their use of the hardware
they loaned, the internet and email.
All teachers are trained to recognize cyber bullying and there are protocols
and procedures throughout the school to instantly interrupt such behavior
and deter further incidences from reoccurring. All social networking sites
within the school are monitored by school employees. Any inappropriate
postings are referred to the Administration for further review and potential
discipline including up to expulsion. Insight School of California - North
Bay is diligent in providing a safe and secure location for our staff and
students. |

IX. Student
Performance
Standardized Testing and Reporting
Program
The 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 Performance
Assessment (CAPA). The CSTs show how well students are doing in relation to the
state content standards. The CSTs include English-language arts (ELA) and
mathematics in grades two through eleven; science in grades five, eight, and
nine through eleven; and history-social science in grades eight, and ten through
eleven. The CAPA includes ELA, mathematics, and science in grades two through
eleven, and for science for grades five, eight, and ten. The CAPA is given to
those students with significant cognitive disabilities whose disabilities
prevent them from taking either the CSTs with accommodations or modifications or
the CMA with accommodations. The CMA includes ELA and mathematics for grades
three through eight and science in grade five and is an alternate assessment
that is based on modifiedachievement 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 each grade and performance
level, including the percent of students not tested, can be found on the CDE Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR)
Results Web site. Program information regarding the STAR Program can be
found in the Explaining
2008 STAR Program Summary Results to the Public guide. 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 to
protect 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.

California High School Exit Examination
Results
The California High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE) is
primarily used as a graduation requirement. However, the grade ten results of
this exam are also used to establish the percentages of students at three
proficiency levels (not proficient, proficient, or advanced) in ELA and
mathematics in order to compute Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) designations as
required by the federal NCLB Act of 2001. Detailed information regarding CAHSEE
results can be found at the CDE California
High School Exit Examination (CAHSEE) Web site. 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 to protect
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.

one means that the school has an API score in the lowest ten percent of all
schools in the state, while a statewide rank of ten means that the school has an
API score in the highest ten 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 schools rank of one means that the school’s
academic performance is comparable to the lowest performing ten schools of the
100 similar schools, while a similar schools rank of ten means that the school’s
academic performance is better than at least 90 of the 100 similar
schools.

means this is either an LEA or an Alternative Schools
Accountability Model (ASAM) school. Schools participating in the ASAM do
not currently receive growth, target information, or statewide or similar
schools rankings on this report in recognition of their markedly different
educational missions and populations served. ASAM schools are covered
under the Alternative Accountability system as required by Education Code
Section 52052 and not the API accountability system. However, API
information is needed to comply with the federal No Child Left Behind
(NCLB) law. Growth, target and rank information are not applicable to
LEAs. |

means this API is calculated for a small school or a
small LEA, defined as having between 11 and 99 valid STAR Program test
scores included in the API. APIs based on small numbers of students are
less reliable and therefore should be carefully interpreted. Similar
schools ranks are not calculated for small schools. |

Adequate Yearly
Progress
The federal NCLB Act requires that all schools and districts
meet the following Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) criteria:
- Participation rate on the state’s standards-based
assessments in ELA and mathematics
- Percent proficient on the state’s standards-based
assessments in ELA and mathematics
- API as an additional indicator
- Graduation rate (for secondary schools)
Detailed information about AYP, including participation rates
and percent proficient results by student group, can be found on the CDE Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) Web
page.
Adequate Yearly Progress Overall and by
Criteria (School Year 2008-09)

Schools and districts receiving federal Title I funding enter
Program Improvement (PI) if they do not make AYP for two consecutive years in
the same content area (ELA or mathematics) or on the same indicator (API or
graduation rate). After entering PI, schools and districts advance to the next
level of intervention with each additional year that they do not make AYP.
Detailed information about PI identification can be found on the CDE Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) Web
page.

XI. School Completion and Postsecondary
Preparation
Admission Requirements for California
Public Universities
University of California
Admission requirements for the University of California (UC)
follow guidelines set forth in the Master Plan, which requires that the top
one-eighth of the state's high school graduates, as well as those transfer
students who have successfully completed specified college work, be eligible for
admission to the UC. These requirements are designed to ensure that all eligible
students are adequately prepared for University-level work. For general
admissions requirements please visit the General
Admissions Information Web page (Outside Source).
California State University
Admission requirements for the California State University
(CSU) use three factors to determine eligibility. They are specific high school
courses; grades in specified courses and test scores; and graduation from high
school. Some campuses have higher standards for particular majors or students
who live outside the local campus area. Because of the number of students who
apply, a few campuses have higher standards (supplementary admission criteria)
for all applicants. Most CSU campuses utilize local admission guarantee policies
for students who graduate or transfer from high schools and colleges that are
historically served by a CSU campus in that region. For general admissions
requirements please visit the Undergraduate Admission &
Requirements Web page (Outside Source).
Dropout Rate and Graduation
Rate
This table displays the school’s one-year dropout and
graduation rates for the most recent three-year period for which data are

XII. Instructional Planning and
Scheduling
Professional
Development
This section provides information on the annual number of
school days dedicated to staff development for the most recent three-year
period.
| To date there was one day of staff development that was held in a Face-To-Face setting. In addition, every new faculty member was required to attend
forty hours of training prior to
the first day of each semester. Returning faculty members were
required to attend twenty hours of training. Sustained professional
development is offered monthly for all faculty members. The sustained
training is called "Tips and Tricks in a Virtual Teaching Environment." |
XIII. National Assessment of
Educational Progress
National Assessment of Educational
Progress
The 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 are reported as performance
levels (i.e., basic, proficient, and advanced) and the participation of students
with disabilities and English language learners is reported based on three
levels (identified, excluded, and assessed). Detailed information regarding the
NAEP results for each grade, performance level, and participation rate can be
found on the National Assessment
of Educational Progress Web page (Outside Source).
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 assesses grades four, eight and
twelve and for long-term trends assesses grades nine, thirteen, and seventeen.
Additionally, the NAEP only provides state test results for grades four and
eight. The California Standards Tests (CSTs) are based on a different set of
standards than the NAEP assessments. 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), encompassing reading as well as writing
conventions, spelling, and grammar. Scores on the CSTs and other assessments are
not directly comparable to those on 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 skills covered by the NAEP frameworks. Information on the differences
between NAEP and CST can be found on the CDE National Assessment of Educational
Progress (NAEP) Web page.
