State law requires public schools throughout California to provide information to parents and the community in the form of an annual School Accountability Report Card (SARC). SARCs follow the state guidelines, are issued each spring, and focus on the previous academic year.

A SARC can be an effective way for a school to report on its progress in achieving goals. The public may also use a SARC to evaluate and compare schools on a variety of indicators including:

• School Description and Mission
• Demographic, Academic, Fiscal, and Expenditure Data
• School safety and Facilities
• Class Size
• Teacher and Staff information
• Curriculum and Instruction

SARCs for all CVUSD schools are available online through the District website and at Find a SARC. Hard copies are available upon request from each school or from the District’s State and Federal Projects Department.
