Please take a moment to watch the annual Title 1 meeting recorded below

Public schools throughout California are required to provide information about themselves to the community in the form of an annual School Accountability Report Card (SARC). These report cards provide a variety of data to allow the public to evaluate and compare schools in several important areas:

● demographic information

● school safety and climate for learning

● academic data

● class size

● teacher and staff information

● professional development

● fiscal and expenditure data

The SARC, which follows the state's guidelines and document template, are issued each spring and focus on the previous academic year. A SARC is typically 12- 14 pages long. I have attached an electronic copy of our site’s SARC for the 2020-21 school year. Hard copies of our SARC are also available in the main office. The 2020-21 SARC is available at https://www.sarconline.org/. You can also access our current SARC electronically at: Knox Middle SARC

If you have any questions about our school’s SARC, please don't hesitate to contact me.
