Acton Agua Dulce Unified School District


Here is a success story about a class at Vasquez.

8-24-08 Buried in the test results is a listing for a physics test. Now only 16 students were in the course and took the exam, but we need to celebrate that 69% were proficient or advanced with only 31% basic and no one, repeat no one, was below basic or far below basic.

See http://star.cde.ca.gov/star2008/Viewreport.asp and insert the county and district name.

Ron Bird of the school board pointed this out to me, that I failed to celebrate the scores in the physics exam portion. He was perfectly correct, that buried in test after test of failure was this shining example of success.

We need more teachers like the physics teacher and less of the failed English course's.

For whoever the physics teacher is, they should be praised for their successful efforts and the students' success and should be a model for Vasquez, instead of sports and failed English courses.
