Our school motto CLASS (Character, Leadership, Attitude, Scholarship, and Service) is important
to ensuring the success of all students. This motto permeates classrooms, extracurricular
activities, athletic competitions, and the interaction among students, staff, and community. We
believe every student can and should be prepared to continue on to higher education and
become a productive member of the community upon graduation. We expect this attitude of
success from staff, students, and parents alike.
Over the past year we have developed interventions including a Learning Center for all students
and a Freshman and Sophomore Academic Seminar Program to further support our incoming
ninth grade students. We have increased our Dual Enrollment offerings as well as our online
course offerings in a blended learning environment that match our existing course descriptions. In
addition we offer a broad range of AP classes.

About the SARC
A. Conditions of Learning
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.
State Priority: Basic
The SARC provides the following information relevant to the Basic State
Priority (Priority 1):
•
Degree to which teachers are appropriately assigned and fully
credentialed in the subject area and for the pupils they are teaching;
•
Pupils have access to standards-aligned instructional materials; and
•
School facilities are maintained in good repair.
•
•
•
•
For more information about SARC requirements, see the California
Department of Education (CDE) SARC Web page at
http://www.cde.ca.gov/ta/ac/sa/.
View this SARC online at the school and/or LEA Web sites.
For more information about the LCFF or LCAP, see the CDE LCFF

Quality, Currency, Availability of Textbooks and Instructional Materials (School Year 2014-15)
Educational standards describe what students should know and be able to do in each subject in each grade. In California, the State Board of Education
(SBE) decides on the standards for all students, from kindergarten through high school, in all public schools. In 2010, a number of states across the
nation adopted the same standards for English and math. These standards are called the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). On August 2, 2010,
California’s SBE voted to adopt the CCSS with California additions. California has committed to implementing the California CCSS and is currently part
of a multi-state assessment consortium that plans on having CCSS-based assessments in place by the 2014–15 school year. More information about
the California Common Core State Standards may be found on the CDE CCSS Web page at http://www.cde.ca.gov/re/cc
On September 4, 2013, the SBE adopted the Next Generation Science Standards for California Public Schools, Kindergarten through Grade Twelve (CA
NGSS).
School districts have the authority and the responsibility to conduct their own evaluation of instructional materials and to adopt the materials that best
meet the needs of their students. All textbooks used in MVUSD are aligned with the State’s standards and curriculum frameworks, they are field tested
with students and reviewed by administrators, teachers and parents before being adopted by the Board of Education.

2013-14 School Accountability Report Card for Vista Murrieta High School
Page 6 of 11
Opportunities for Parental Involvement
Our school has significant support from parents. We encourage parent and community involvement through our award-winning PTSA, which actively
supports programs, activities and provides scholarships to seniors. The PTSA also encourages senior citizens from the community to get involved in
school functions, bringing a high level of community support. The School Site Council, consisting of parents, students, and staff members, meets
regularly to evaluate the effectiveness of school programs, review curriculum, and approve specific funding for the budget. A Principal’s Advisory
committee consisting of students from various backgrounds and grades meets monthly with the school principal to discuss any concerns from the
student’s perspective.
Parent booster programs support large extracurricular organizations such as performing arts and athletics. Parent fund-raising underwrites the
purchase of specialized equipment and field trips for competitions and offers financial support for those families in need. We also encourage parents to
participate in ELAC, PTSA, and the Scholarship Foundation. Many activities support parent involvement and the dissemination of information, such as
Parent Information Nights for incoming ninth grade students, AP and Dual Enrollment students, college-bound students, and athletes.
Parents assist with various school events including dances and field trips. Performing arts and athletic events are always well supported and attended
by parents. Back-to-School Night and Open House are special events that are well attended every year. Parents are encouraged to support the many
organizations and athletic teams at functions on and off campus. To find out how you can volunteer at our school, please contact Denise Escobar, 20142015 PTSA President, at [email protected].
State Priority: School Climate
The SARC provides the following information relevant to the School Climate State Priority (Priority 6):
•
•
•
Pupil suspension rates;
Pupil expulsion rates; and
Other local measures on the sense of safety.
School Safety Plan
School safety is a high priority. Campus security guards, administrators, and counselors, monitor the campus before, during, and after school as well as
during breaks and lunches, supervise students, and ensure a safe learning environment. There is also a School Resource Officer on campus during
school hours. This uniformed police officer provides support for administration and discipline issues and is a positive presence on campus. Vista
Murrieta is a closed campus that is fully fenced, and students are not allowed to leave campus during the day without the consent of a parent or
guardian. A campus supervisor monitors all visitors who enter the campus parking lot. Visitors must produce a photo ID and sign in and out as well as
wear a visitor sticker while on campus. All visitors must have specific school business to remain on campus.
The district holds quarterly safety meetings and our SSC works on our safety plan throughout the year. We have adopted a Comprehensive School
Safety Plan, and it was last reviewed in October 2014 and approved by the SSC. The plan is presented to all staff and parents, and we hold numerous
student assemblies to address safety issues and student expectations. Video surveillance cameras across our campus are a deterrent to trespassers,
vandalism, and other illegal activities. They also help administrators with discipline issues and help in the investigation of any crimes that may occur on
campus during the school day or after school hours, making our school safer and more secure. The Spriego reporting system allows parents and
students to report problems such as bullying and safety concerns online. The district has a strictly enforced anti-discrimination policy that prohibits
harassment of students or staff based on race, gender, disability, religion, or sexual orientation.
As a preventive measure, the district uses trained canines to provide unannounced canine searches of all areas of campus to find any illegal substances
such as drugs, alcohol, and weapons. The district has also staffed after hours security personnel to monitor the campus when school is not in session.
Along with daily monitoring, our administration screens student discipline data and reviews and adjusts policies as necessary. Regularly throughout the
year, we conduct emergency drills including fire, earthquake, and lock down. In addition, our school has an Emergency and Disaster Preparedness Plan.
This plan is in accordance with NIMS emergency system and specifies procedures for dealing with fire, flood, earthquakes, lock downs, hazardous
materials, disaster recovery organization, and student accountability following a disaster. The emergency notification system Blackboard Connect
delivers phone calls and emails to disseminate urgent and time-sensitive messages to families.

Types of Services Funded at Vista Murrieta High School
The district provides a wide array of programs to meet the needs of our diverse student body. This includes programs to identify and support students
and their families through times of crisis and stress. A health technician, nurse, and psychologist are also available to meet with students.
The district provides an elementary counselor to our school approximately one day a week to support academic success. Counselors teach guidance
lessons and facilitate small groups on social skills, anger management, grief and loss, military support. They also provide individual responsive services,
interventions and referrals on an as needed basis.
Homework clubs, before- and after school tutoring programs, and extended learning opportunities during the summer break provide additional
support for students who need assistance with basic curriculum.
Professional Development provided for Teachers at Vista Murrieta High School
All teachers in the district participate in ongoing professional development as a part of their commitment to being an educator. New teachers are
supported through the Beginning Teacher Support and Assessment (BTSA) program, which allows them the time to reflect on their teaching practice
with the help of a mentor teacher.
Staff development is an important element of teacher development and community building. Teachers take part in staff meetings that are used for
instructional training and staff communication. Modified days are collaborative opportunities that are designed by teachers and focused on supporting
student learning. Staff development days are held three times throughout the year.
Key areas of focus for the 2013-2014 school year included Marzano strategies for writing, Thinking Maps, using technology effectively to support math
and language arts, response to intervention, and Professional Learning Communities.
Students are released from school early every Monday so staff can meet in professional learning communities to discuss student achievement and
learning.

Career Technical Education Programs
Graduates are prepared to enter the workforce based on their completion of a rigorous curriculum of core academic subjects along with 40 hours of
community service, which teaches them the importance of volunteer work and provides them with insight into different career paths. Students learn
how to research potential employers, answer interview questions, and write business letters and resumes as part of their English classes. We
encourage students to take the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) to help them evaluate their strengths, skills, and interests as part
of their post-high school planning.
Students enroll in the Kuder Navigator Software system in their freshman year; the program provides students with extensive career-related
assessments and resources to explore the world of work. All students are required to complete a senior exit interview in their senior year. This process
starts with a career inventory in ninth grade and in tenth grade each student continues their Individualized Learning Plan through one-on-one sessions
with their counselor. In their junior year, each student must write a reflective essay that is scored with a common district rubric. This process
culminates with the senior exit interview. Each senior student must successfully complete the exit interview which is conducted before a select panel of
staff and community members. The topic of this presentation style interview will allow for each student to reflect on their high school experience and
present their post high school plan.
Our high school offers courses intended to help students prepare for the world of work. The Riverside County of Educations’ Career Technical
Education (CTE) program provides students with a variety of technical courses such as TV and video production, interactive media design, audio
technology, banking, culinary arts, law enforcement, forensic science and CSI, stagecraft, sports therapy, medical front office, nurse assistant, and
cosmetology. These courses let students explore career interests and post-high school career opportunities. Students sign up for classes through our
site CTE representative. Courses are offered on and off campus. Off campus classes are offered at neighboring high schools. Students taking courses off
campus must be approved for early dismissal and provide their own transportation. Through a partnership with Mt. San Jacinto College, students who
successfully complete approved high school CTE courses with a grade of B or better, qualify for college credit for the course after completion of 12
units with the college. Matriculation services are provided to students including online application and assessment process.
