Summary
This proposal supports Sacramento City Unified School District
(SCUSD) in helping students pass the HSEE by the end of the
10th grade. The project supports the infrastructure of school-based
and existing CAPP-supported UC Davis outreach programs and
enhances programming of a recently formed local GEAR UP partnership,
whose goal is to prepare students for successful admission
into a four-year higher education program.
The partnership nucleus includes Sacramento High School,
Kit Carson Middle School, California Middle School, and UC
Davis. The program model provides academic counseling; professional
development in English Language Arts and Mathematics; Reservation
for College lessons and activities for 7th and 8th grades;
Academic Tutoring; EAOP On Track services in the development
of a college preparatory work plan; and family education in
college preparatory requirements and access to higher education.
The objective of CAPP funded positions will be to build on
existing CAPP-supported programs that provide intensive on-site
professional development in English Language Arts and Mathematics.
Workshops and individualized training will focus on articulation
of curriculum from sixth through twelfth grade; coaching in
teacher lesson preparation and delivery in the California
State Standards for mathematics and English, with specific
emphasis on the standards covered in the HSEE; Reading and
Writing Across the Content Areas; and Discover Math, a new
data-driven mathematics approach that will be used to bring
up middle school students, who average a third-grade skill
in mathematics, up to seventh grade mathematics skills as
defined by the California standards.
