VISUALS:  Students celebrating the after-school tutoring program by crossing the red carpet like royalty; student after school clubs present with displays; student marketing club sending live tweets of event; presentation of award to 10,000th student who voluntarily attended the after school tutoring program, ACES.

 

GUEST SPEAKERS/INTERVIEWS:  Ernest Remillard, Principal, Mission Bay High; Ron Lancia, Teacher and ACES Coordinator, Mission Bay High; Gina Metcalf, IMIN After School Program Site Coordinator, Mission Bay High; Brad Lupien, co-founder arc; Lisa McDonnell, IMIN After School Program Supervisor.  (Spanish as well)

 

BACKGROUND: Mission Bay High School’s tutoring program began with the goal to not only provide academic support across the curriculum, but to provide resources to develop the whole child.  ACES, the After-school Center for Excellence and Support, is a voluntary after school tutoring program that aligns its commitments to the community with the four suits from a deck of cards.  The Ace of Hearts represents a holistic approach to mentoring, providing access to an array of services to benefit social and emotional growth.  The Ace of Clubs represents a club/community effect, providing a consistent place for students to gather to further their education.  The Ace of Diamonds represents a balanced approach to support English/History, Math/Science, Foreign Language/Fine Arts, and Special Populations such as International Baccalaureate, English Learner, or Special Education students.  Finally, the Aces of Spades represents digging deeper, through access to one-on-one instruction with expert teachers.

 

ACES offers helpful reference materials, access to computers, printers, and supplies, free and healthy snacks, college tutoring from SDSU and UCSD students, specialized help for CAHSEE/PSAT/SAT prep, college application counseling, and mentorship for life, college and career.  Currently, about 100 students a day are working at ACES under the direction of a staff of teachers from all content areas  The program’s mantra is “Every student, every time” which refers to the program’s commitment to engage with every one of the 100+ students who enters ACES after school to help them continue their education every single day.

 

The ACES program at Mission Bay High School is supported by the funding from the IMIN After School Program in the San Diego Unified School District.  The MIN brand was developed by student groups who frequented after school activities.  When referencing their after school involvement, they would often times simply say, “I’m in dance” or I’m in robotics”.  The phrase “I’m in” stuck and became the district’s brand for the high school after school program.

 

The IMIN After-School Program funding is made possible by the 21st Century Community Learning Center (CCLC) After-School Safety and Enrichment for Teens (ASSETs) grant.  The ASSETs grant is a state-administered federally grant that provides five-years of funding to establish or expand before-and after-school programs that provide disadvantaged students (particularly students who attend schools in need of improvement) with academic enrichment opportunities and supportive services to help the students meet state and local standards in core content areas.  Each program must consist of three elements:  academic assistance, educational enrichment, and family literacy services.  The grant was awarded to start in July 2014 at sixteen high schools in San Diego Unified including Mission Bay, Clairemont, Hoover, Kearny Engineering, Innovation & Design, Kearny Digital Media & Design, Kearny Science, Connections & Technology, Lincoln, Madison, Morse, Point Loma, San Diego High School of Business, San Diego High School of Media, Visual, and Performing Arts, San Diego High School of Science Technology, School of Creative and Performing Arts (SCPA), Serra, and Twain high schools.

 

The IMIN After-School Program in San Diego Unified is coordinated at twelve different high school campuses by two contractors.  The program at Mission Bay High School is supported by arc.  Arc is an after-school and experiential education provider.  They create transformational learning opportunities that empower youth to realize their full potential.  arc Co-founder, Brad Lupien, describes what they do as school sites as, "we fill in the gaps to form an arc around, over and as a bridge to their education by offering experience, opportunity, and connection where it did not exist. We build the arc that supports their growth; we help students draw their own arc that leads towards a promising future."  Arc coordinates the after school programs at ten high school campuses in the district.  They also coordinate programs in Orange County, Los Angeles and Tennessee.

 

The San Diego Unified IMIN After School Program is coordinated for the district by the Office of College, Career & Technical Education.

Media Advisory: San Diego Unified's 2014-2015 First Interim Financial Report Clear on Commitment to Classrooms

Board to approve financial report Tuesday reflecting to-date budget status; Three-year budget plan proposes reduced class sizes in the early grades and addition of school counselors among funding priorities

SAN DIEGO ­ The San Diego Unified School District will present its 2014-2015 First Interim Financial Report, reflecting the district¹s budget status for this fiscal year, at the Board of Education meeting on Tuesday, December 9. The budget presentation will also include a preview of the three-year budget plan moving into the 2015-2016 fiscal year, reflecting budget priorities that continue to reduce class sizes, among other priorities.

"Within continued and severe budget restraints, we are working steadily to prioritize more resources into the classrooms, and this commitment to our classrooms is clearly evident in our First Interim Report." said Superintendent Cindy Marten. "We know what our schools need, and we¹re not waiting for the Governor¹s budget next month to determine what to do. We have our priorities in place based on a year¹s worth of collective and comprehensive feedback from our stakeholders and partners."

"If the Governor's budget comes in higher than anticipated, we¹ll be able to meet our funding priorities more fully. If it comes in lower than projected, we will scale back but keep the priorities in place," she added.

Funding priorities for 2015-2016 include continued reduction of class sizes, especially at the early grades, and more counseling support, among other priorities, based on strategies outlined in the district's Local Control Accountability Plan (LCAP). Regular monthly LCAP updates are provided to the Board of Education, and shared with advisory, parent, and student committees as a means to obtain regular input.

The approval of the First Interim Report is the first in a series of steps leading to the final Board adoption of the 2014-2015 budget and LCAP.

2 Board Approval of First Interim Report- BOARD ACTION December 9, 2014

8 Board Approval of 3rd Interim Report- BOARD ACTION May 15, 2015
9 Board Adoption of 2014/15 Budget and LCAP-BOARD ACTION June 30, 2015
"We value the input from our families, staff and community members in making funding decisions that have the greatest collective impact on the classroom," she added. "We have started to have critical conversations with the California Legislature on improving equity and adequacy in education funding, and will be making sure our stakeholders¹ voices are included in these conversations." On Monday, December 1, 2014, Superintendent Marten and Board President Kevin Beiser called for lawmakers to take action to accelerate funding restoration as part of the annual State of the District address.

MEDIA ADVISORY: San Diego Unified School Gives David Wells Field a Makeover

MEDIA ADVISORY -- Dec. 3, 2014
Contact: Cynthia Reed-Porter, 619-546-3378

San Diego Unified School District Gives David Wells Field a Makeover

WHAT: San Diego Unified School District recently completed a major renovation project on the David Wells Field at Dana Middle School in Point Loma. School Board Trustee Scott Barnett, Mayor Kevin Faulconer, former Major League Baseball player and new head baseball coach for Point Loma High School, David Wells, will celebrate the completion of this project with other district and city leaders, the school principals, student athletes, parents and community members.

The new, synthetic-turf baseball field and other amenities will be dedicated during a ceremony tomorrow afternoon. The field will be shared by Dana Middle School and Point Loma High School. The middle school students will use the outfield as a multipurpose field for physical education during their school day, and the high school's varsity and junior varsity baseball teams will use the field for practices and games when the middle school isn't in session.

WHEN: Thursday, Dec. 4, 2:30-3 p.m. (rain or shine)

WHERE: Dana Middle School baseball field, 1775 Chatsworth Blvd., San Diego 92107
The baseball field is located on the southeast side of the campus. (map available). Media parking will be available on site. (Enter the gate on Macaulay St., and
proceed to interior parking lot adjacent to the baseball field.)

VISUALS: New field and amenities, ceremonial ribbon cutting, and Point Loma High baseball players in uniform fielding some baseballs.

SPEAKERS: Student athletes, Trustee Scott Barnett, Mayor Kevin Faulconer, David Wells,Chief Facilities Planning and Construction Officer Lee Dulgeroff; Principal Hans Becker and Principal Scott Irwin.

INTERVIEWS: The speakers will be available for interviews.

PROJECT INFO: Construction began on the renovation project during the summer and was completed in September. The project included replacing the existing natural grass baseball field with synthetic turf and reconstructing the bull-pen areas, installing a new centerfield fence with access gates and wind screen, utility upgrades and field logos. A brown turf strip was installed along the outside of the baseball field, so the middle school students have a designated running track for PE classes.

The total construction costs were $1,521,204. The funding source was Proposition Z, San Diego Unified's
bond measure that was passed by San Diego voters in 2012 to renovate, repair and revitalize district schools.

For more details on phase one and the proposed phase two of the baseball field improvements, please visit the following website https://fpcprojects.sandi.net/Pages/Reports.aspx?SchoolName=9080 (scroll down to "Project Schedules").
