Minneapolis School Finder, 2018-2019 by Great MN Schools

Dear Minneapolis families, Last year, we developed ‘Minneapolis School Finder’ with and for families to help them make empowered, informed decisions when selecting a school. Our journey started by listening, then co-designing with communities; through those efforts, 6,500 families and partners across the city utilized Minneapolis School Finder. To develop the second edition, we spent countless hours with families – learning how we could make it even more useful when searching for the right-fit school for their student. In response to feedback, we now make additional objective, reliable information about schools available to you and your family, including demographic breakdowns of academic performance by race/ethnicity, kindergarten readiness and more. We believe you deserve to know what each school has to offer academically and culturally, regardless of school type. That’s why we stand by this comprehensive guide, and welcome your feedback on how we can continue to make relevant information available on our city’s schools. You can email us at: info@MinneapolisSchoolFinder.org. We wish you the best in your search for the school that meets the needs of your student, because a one-size-fits-all approach doesn’t meet the needs of all students. A great education for all students, regardless of what street you live on, is possible together! Onward,

Iris Altamirano

Learn about the different types of schools

1 District school 1.

A free public school managed by Minneapolis Public Schools, which is governed by the Minneapolis Board of Education. They generally have the same enrollment process and are open to all students, but may have restricted geographic zones. Some district schools are magnets schools, which offer a different learning theme or teaching method, and usually draw families from a larger attendance area.

22 Charter school A free public school governed by a nonprofit board of directors, and overseen by a nonprofit charter school “authorizer” approved by the Minnesota Department of Education, or “MDE.” They are open to all students, and each school has its own application and enrollment process. 3 Independent school 3.

A private school governed by a nonprofit board of directors. They charge tuition (but often offer financial assistance to low-income families), and students need to apply to each school and be accepted to attend.

What features are most important to you? Make a list of all the features that are important to you and your child. Is having a certain after school program important to you? Are there languages you want your child to learn? You may not find a school that meets everything on your list, but finding a school that includes the majority of them will help you find schools that match your needs. To help you, we provide profiles of schools across Minneapolis – including contact information, highlights, academic and demographic data. Review the profiles. We recommend identifying three to five preferred schools that meet your priority requirements.

Consider the following...

Review school profiles, visit websites, tour schools Academic performance and demographics Policymakers, with educator input, designed the Minnesota academic rating standards to assess whether a school is preparing its students for college and career success. The information in the school profiles – including an academic rating, academic performance on the state assessment, graduation rates and the demographics of a school – can help you determine how well a school is meeting the needs of its students and community, and how it compares to other schools in Minneapolis and statewide. Culture and climate Learn about the school’s mission. What are their beliefs, values and assumptions about your child? How do they offer the best environment for learning? Every school is different for students: One size doesn’t fit all. Classroom instruction and programs What will your child learn, and how will the school make sure it is relevant to your student’s educational and social needs? How well is the school addressing the specific interests, aspirations and culture of your child in its curriculum and programs? What are the types of academic programs and extracurricular activities offered? School hours, transportation and mobility Hours, including before school and afterschool programs, and transportation vary school to school. Call schools to understand if their structure meets the needs of your family. If you, or someone you know, is experiencing homelessness or incarceration, the ‘McKinney-Vento Homeless Education Assistance Improvements Act’ provides resources to keep enrollment, attendance and success as top priorities. Transportation is available for students in foster care placement outside of the school district they’re attending at the time of placement. Check 9 with the school to learn more.

Visit a few schools Contact the schools on your preferred list and schedule a tour Questions for parents, from parents When touring, be sure to ask lots of questions. Review everything you learned and determine which schools are the best match for your family.

1.1 How can your school accommodate my child’s learning style and interests? Great schools will challenge your child, but also meet their needs and engage them in their own learning. All children have different learning styles, abilities and interests. What’s necessary for you and your child to have in the school, and what can you supplement at home or in the community? How relevant is the curriculum to the interests of your child? How will your child have agency and voice in their educational journey? 2 How are you connecting academics to real-life skills? 2.

How do you prepare students for college, jobs and their adult life? Local schools vary in their ability to teach students how to read well, understand math, be critical thinkers, and prepare students for college and careers. What data does the school look at to know how they’re doing? Do they offer internships, or exposure to college and career opportunities, e.g. PostSecondary Enrollment Option “P.S.E.O.”

Tip: Ask the school for its student 10

handbook to learn more about its culture and discipline practices.

3 What environment does your school create to connect with 3. my child’s culture, race and ethnicity?

Each school is unique in how they appreciate and interact with students from different backgrounds. Depending on your priorities, you could ask how the school creates opportunities for your child to learn about diversity, or how they’ve incorporated specific cultures into instruction. 4 How long have your teachers been teaching in your school? 4. What are their backgrounds?

Teacher effectiveness is the strongest in-school factor for student success. Do teachers know the school, students and families? Are they building positive relationships with students? The training and on-going support of a teacher affects classroom culture and instruction. 5 What are your disciplinary policies? What are your rates of 5. suspension and expulsion?

How does the school handle misbehavior? Who manages behavior? How do they document it and communicate behavior concerns with parents? Is there a school resource officer, or “SRO”? Do they ever call in police officers? If so, under what circumstances? 6 What programs are available for my child? 6.

From counseling services to sports, each school is different. What before and after school programs and extracurricular activities are available to students? Are there programs in the school to help your child prepare for and get into college? If so, what are they? 7 How are parents involved? 7.

How frequently do teachers communicate with parents? Do they conduct home visits? Do they communicate with parents about their child’s academic and social development and before a student falls behind? And how are parents included, from conferences to volunteer activities? How can parents be part of the school’s decision making process? Does the school offer families any unique resources? 8 8.Do students and families feel connected to school – its people and its policies/procedures?

Are there adults in the school whom your student can go to in times of need? Are these adults also accessible to families? 11

Apply and enroll Familiarize yourself with the processes for schools that interest you Apply to two or three schools, since some schools may not have space for all students who apply. Then, enroll in the one school that you feel is the best fit. Be sure to give yourself enough time to complete any necessary paperwork as the application process may be unique for each school. District schools participate in a common enrollment process. Charter and independent schools run their own application and enrollment processes (this means you’ll need to fill out an application for each school you’re interested in and the school will inform you when it’s time to complete the enrollment paperwork). District, charter and independent schools all have different enrollment timelines and processes. Be sure to check with the school you’re interested in to be sure of their process and timeline for enrolling your student. The priority deadline for Minneapolis Public Schools is February 17th.

Additional tips for different schools… District schools Students enroll through a common enrollment system using a ‘School Request Form’: • Submit a form when entering your child into PreK, kindergarten or transferring schools. • During transitions into middle or high school, submit a new form if you’re enrolling your child into a school not designated as their “pathway” or “community” school. • If you wish to enroll your student in a district school outside of your neighborhood, Minneapolis makes that option available. Called “open enrollment,” requests are made by completing the ‘Statewide Enrollment 12 Options’ form and signed by the parent, legal guardian or foster parent.

Enrollment is based on three geographic Attendance Zones and 22 Attendance Areas. The Zone and Area in which you reside may affect how easily you can enroll in a school. The district gives priority to students who want to attend the schools within their Area, then Zone; students who want to attend the same school as a sibling also receive priority. Select magnet schools and citywide programs do not prioritize Areas or Zones. Access online enrollment forms at schoolrequest.mpls.k12.mn.us/ documents/k-8_request_form_english.pdf (grades PreK-8) and highschoolrequest.mpls.k12.mn.us/documents/hs_request_form_english. PDF (grades 9-12). For more information, visit schoolrequest.mpls.k12. mn.us/home (grades PreK-8) and highschoolrequest.mpls.k12.mn.us/ home2 (grades 9-12). You can request these materials at most schools’ offices. For help, contact the district’s Student Placement Center: (612) 668-1840.

Charter schools Each school requires a separate application. To access the application, visit your preferred school’s website or contact the school using the information in its profile. Application deadlines differ from school to school. Note: Charter schools do not require entrance exams or limit the admission of children based on intellectual ability, measures of achievement or aptitude, or athletic ability. If the number of applications a charter school receives exceeds its capacity, it conducts a lottery to determine which children can enroll and to establish a waitlist in case spaces for additional students become available later. For more information, contact the Minnesota Association of Charter Schools: (651) 789-3090.

Independent schools Each school runs its own enrollment process with separate application materials. As private schools, they have unique admission criteria. They may ask to see report cards, or ask prospective students to visit and complete an interview. Most independent schools charge tuition, but offer financial aid to some students. If you’re applying for financial aid, they may ask for additional application materials. To access these materials, visit your preferred school’s website or contact them using the information in its profile. Learn more about independent schools by contacting the Minnesota Independent School Forum: (651) 297-6716.

Tip: If you have any questions about enrollment, call your preferred schools directly.

Schools closing the opportunity gap Changing-the-odds schools in Minneapolis

These schools are changing the odds for students from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds; they have test results that indicate a strong academic program is in place and works well. Based on Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment, or “MCA,” data, students on Free and Reduced-Price Lunch at these schools are doing better than average and/ or growing at a faster rate than expected. See more about this calculation on pages 16-21. Unfortunately, not all schools are able to demonstrate strong academic results with all students. The list of changing-the- odds schools on the opposite page identifies schools where low-income students (as identified by the FRL program) performed above the average Minneapolis student in the 2016-17 school year. These schools have demonstrated success serving ALL students, including the families most in-need. The MCA is Minnesota’s annual test to measure student achievement. Policymakers, advocates and educators can understand how students as a whole meet state standards, and our ability to close “opportunity gaps.” In this guide, scores are reported in two ways, proficiency and growth. Students who are considered “proficient” have met statewide standards that MDE set for their grade level. For growth, MDE measures how much a student’s demonstrated learning has grown based on their previous year’s test scores. Free and Reduced-Price Lunch On each school’s profile, you’ll find the percentage of students receiving Free and Reduced-Price Lunch, or “FRL.” This is the federal government proxy to measure how many children come from a low-income background. It provides context about how a school’s academic performance impacts some of our city’s most vulnerable students.

Tip: As you explore school

profiles and visit schools, ask how children similar to your child do academically.

This guide includes profiles of schools across Minneapolis (plus schools in nearby communities that serve a large number of students who are residents of Minneapolis). Although an entire school can’t be summed up in one page, the profiles provide basic information – school size and demographics, contact information and academic performance. The profiles are a starting place to find a school that might be a good fit for your child. A Highlights A.

Features and programs unique to the school. Each school offers much more than what’s listed, so consider this a starting place. Contact schools and look at their websites to learn more. (Every school had opportunities to submit highlights; we also collected them from visiting schools’ websites, and by calling them.)

How to read school profiles – cont’d C Demographics C. Student enrollment, race/ethnicity and teacher data come from MDE records for the 2016-17 school year and may not accurately reflect current demographics of the school: • FRL rate – Free and Reduced-Price Lunch (FRL) is a common term that is used to articulate the percent of students in a building who are most in-need. It’s determined by the number of students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch (based on completing a form at the school). • Student demographics – Students are identified by one of seven ethnicities reported in Minnesota, based on student enrollment paperwork completed by parents. • Teachers of color – The percent of teachers who do not identify as white. This count is only for licensed teachers and does not reflect the diversity of the entire staff. The majority of Minneapolis schools surpass the state average of 4% teachers of color.

D Academic rating D. School profiles feature academic ratings informed by three years of MCA proficiency and growth data and, for high schools, ACT data. Schools with enough data to analyze received one of five ratings: High Performing, High Potential, Mid Performing, Low Performing or Persistently Low Performing. For high schools, if a school has greater than 40% of its students opting out of the MCA test, an average ACT score is used to determine its rating. The ACT exam is an indicator of college readiness and is generally taken in 11th and/or 12th grade. Many colleges consider 21 a minimum score to indicate readiness for college. High schools with average ACT scores between 21-36 are considered High Performing, scores between 18-20 are considered High Potential and an average score at or below 17 are not rated. Scores in two of three years determine the rating.

Tip: It’s important to also look at growth in addition to proficiency 18

– especially if the proficiency score is low. Growth can help understand how fast students are increasing their skills.

Academic rating: HIGH PERFORMING

Academic rating: HIGH POTENTIAL

In at least 2 of the past 3 years: • MCA proficiency is better than the state average or • Was in the top 25% of all Minneapolis schools*

In at least 2 of the past 3 years: • MCA proficiency is better than the MPS district average

or • Students showed at least one academic year of MCA growth, on average

Academic rating: MID PERFORMING

Achieving a mix of High Potential and Low Performing results in at least 2 of the past 3 years (because the MCA is only given once per year and starts in 3rd grade, consider asking questions about the achievement of younger students or how students do on other indicators – see pages 10-11 for sample questions)

Academic rating: LOW PERFORMING

In at least 2 of the past 3 years: • MCA proficiency is in the bottom 25% of Minneapolis schools* or • MCA growth is in the bottom 25% of Minneapolis schools*

Academic rating: PERSISTENTLY LOW PERFORMING

In at least 2 of the past 3 years: • MCA proficiency is in the bottom 25% of Minneapolis schools* and • MCA growth is in the bottom 25% of Minneapolis schools*

Academic rating: OTHER

• LIMITED DATA – not enough data to quality for a rating • ALTERNATIVE – tend to have small populations and, therefore, have limited data from which to determine a rating • INDEPENDENT SCHOOL – are not required to administer the MCA test. Some of their achievements are included under “Highlights” in their profiles

*all Minneapolis schools taking the MCA

Tip: If a school has an “other”

rating, make sure to ask about their academic performance.

How to read school profiles – cont’d E % Proficiency E. The Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment, or “MCA,” measures student math and reading proficiency – one indicator of student learning. Our state considers a student “proficient” if they meet the academic standards set by MDE for their grade level. School profiles feature the percentage of students at a school proficient in math and reading in 2017. For example: If the math proficiency is listed as 62%, that means 62 out of every 100 students are proficient in that subject. The higher the number, the more students in the school are achieving the standards set by the state. Proficiency data by demographic categories are provided for schools that have more than 10 students of that demographic in every tested grade.

F % On-track (Prek-8 only) F. This is a measurement of how much a school’s students grow academically each year. Our state measures this by comparing previous and current MCA scores. Specifically, each student’s growth score is calculated by subtracting their previous year’s MCA proficiency score from this year’s MCA proficiency score. All students who achieve high growth as well as students who achieve medium growth, and are proficient, are considered on-track. On track students have either scored proficient or are moving closer to proficiency. Percent on-track represents the percentage of students who are on track within a school, broken out for math and reading. It’s important to look at both the proficiency of student learning and the growth of student learning. While proficiency illustrates how many students are currently meeting statewide standards, growth will capture changes in student learning rates – whether students are moving toward proficiency. It allows for visibility into the progress in a school, even if the students haven’t yet reached proficiency. Growth data by demographic categories are provided for schools that have more than 10 students of that demographic in every tested grade.

Tip: 20

Many families are interested in schools that are culturally diverse. When visiting a school, be sure to ask about the diversity of staff and students. Percentages do not tell the whole story.

G G. 4- and 5-year graduation rate (high school only) Minnesota uses an “adjusted cohort graduation rate” model, which tracks the percent of students within a school who graduate, adjusting for student movement. The four-year rate shows the percent or students from the class of 2016 who graduated within four years after entering 9th grade. The five-year graduation rate recognizes that there are students who may take additional time to meet graduation requirements, and tracks the percent of students from the class of 2015 who received a diploma within five years. Schools must have at least 10 students in the graduating cohort to receive a graduation rate. H H. Average ACT score (high school only) As indicated in section D on page 18, the ACT is a national test intended to measure a student’s likelihood to succeed in college, and is used by many colleges during the admissions process. It is generally taken in 11th and/or 12th grade. Many colleges consider 21 a minimum score to indicate readiness for college.

Learn more at: rc.education.state.mn.us. This Minnesota Department of Education site offers many tools to learn about schools, such as: Information on individual schools, including achievement measures that can be broken down by demographic. This site is great for parents and anyone interested in learning more about individual schools’ achievements. Do you have feedback on Minneapolis School Finder?

Additional resources Child care and preschool Resources for early years

For parents of babies, toddlers and preschoolers, the Parent Aware Ratings can help you find the best child care and preschool programs. These programs can help your child get ready to succeed in school.

Start early in life Even babies and toddlers need great places to learn through stimulating play. After all, up to 90 percent of brain development happens by age five. Nearly half of Minnesota children aren’t ready for kindergarten and too many don’t catch up in later grades. So, it’s important to help babies, toddlers and preschoolers be in child care and preschool programs that are good at helping children learn. At this age, kids learn through stimulating play activities, and that’s what high-quality child care and preschool programs offer. It really does make a huge difference for young children.

Online search for quality programs How can parents find the best early learning programs? The Parent Aware Ratings is a simple four-star system that tells parents which programs, in centers, homes, schools, or churches, are using the best practices for preparing kids for kindergarten. For free, parents can go to www.ParentAware.org to search from more than 12,000 Minnesota child care and preschool programs. Online searches only take a few seconds. In-person help is also available in English, Spanish, Hmong and Somali at (888) 291-9811.

Help paying for quality programs Early Learning Scholarships help families most in-need pay for highquality child care and PreK. Up to $7,500 is awarded for use in Parent Aware-participating programs. Minneapolis families can learn more by calling (651) 641-6604. 22

Iyada oo lagu salaynayo xog kaydiyaha qiimaynta dhammaystiran ee Minnesota (Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment MCA), waxaa la ogaaday in ardaydu ay ka sareeyaan heerka dhexdhexaadka ah ama in aqoonta ardaydu u kortay si ka xawli badan sidii la faliyey.

Dugsiyadani waxay guul muuqata ka soo hooyeen u adeega qoysaska danyarta ah ee baahida badan qaba. Qiimaynta dhammaystiran ee Minnesota (MCA) waa tijaabo sanadle ah oo lagu cabbirayo guusha ardayda. Sidaas awgeed, dadka dejiya qorshe hawleedka, qareennada iyo aqoonyahankuba waa in ay garwaaqsadaan siday ardaydu dhamaantood u gaadhi lahaayeen heerarka gobalka u degan iyo awoodda aan u leenahay in aan buuxin karo goldaloolooyinka fursadaha. Tilmaan bixiyahan wuxuu muujinay qaabka loo soo gudbiyo dhibcaha oo kala ah kobac iyo lahaanta qoon sare. Ardayda loo aqoonsado inay leeyihiin aqoon sare (proficient) waxay buuxiyeen heerarkii gobalka u deganaa ee ay samaysay MDE. Arrinta kobaca, MDE waxay ku cabbirtaa iyada oo eegaysa farqiga u dhexeeya dhibcihii ardaygu keenay sanad dugsiyeedkii hore iyo kobaca uu sameeyey sanad dugsiyeedka la joogo markaas.

Halbeega FRL ay isticmaasho wuxuu goynayaa boqolkiiba 40% si uu uga jawaabo baahida ardayda kala duwan, wuxuu sidoo kale muujiyaa liiska dugsiyada kartida u leh ee ka jawaaba baahida 36 kala duwan ee jidhka ardaygu u baahan yahay.

E % Aqoonta E. Qiimaynta Fahmaysa ee Minnesota, ama “MCA,” waxay cabbirtaa xisaabta ardayga iyo akhriska aqoontiisa - hal tilmaame oo ah barashada ardayga. Dawladeenu waxay tixgelinaysaa ardayga “fiican” haddii ay buuxiyaan heerarka tacliinta ee ay dhigtay MDE ee heerka fasalkooda. Noocyada dugsiga waxay u dhigantaa boqolkiiba ardayda dhigata dugsi sare ee xisaabta iyo akhriska 2017. Tusaale ahaan: Haddii aqoonta xisaabtu ay ku qoran tahay 62%, taas macnaheedu waa 62 ka mid ah 100-kii ardayba waa aqoon karti leh. Tirada ardayda ka badan, ardayda badan ee dugsiga ayaa gaadhaya heerarka gobolka ee dejiya. Macluumaadka aqoonta ee qaybaha bulshada ayaa loo fidiyaa dugsiyada oo leh in ka badan 10 arday oo ka mid ah buundooyinkan darajo kasta oo imtixaan ah.

Estimadas familias de Minneapolis,

El año pasado desarrollamos “Minneapolis School Finder” con y para las familias, para ayudarles a tomar decisiones empoderadas e informadas al seleccionar una escuela. Nuestra travesía comenzó escuchando y luego diseñando esta guía junto con las comunidades; y gracias a esos esfuerzos, 6,500 familias y socios de toda la ciudad utilizaron Minneapolis School Finder. Para desarrollar la segunda edición de esta guía de recursos, cómo en la primera, pasamos incontables horas con las familias, aprendiendo cómo podríamos hacerla aún más útil para encontrar la escuela más adecuada para su estudiante. En respuesta a los comentarios, ahora brindamos información adicional objetiva y confiable sobre las escuelas disponibles para usted y su familia, incluyendo análisis demográficos del rendimiento académico por raza/etnia, preparación para el kínder y más. Creemos que usted merece saber lo que cada escuela ofrece académica y culturalmente, independientemente del tipo de escuela que sea. Por eso respaldamos esta guía detallada y apreciamos sus comentarios sobre cómo podemos continuar brindando información relevante acerca de las escuelas de nuestra ciudad. Puede enviarnos un correo electrónico a: info@MinneapolisSchoolFinder.org. Le deseamos lo mejor en su búsqueda de la escuela que satisfaga las necesidades de su estudiante, independientemente del tipo de escuela, porque un enfoque único no satisface las necesidades de todos los estudiantes. ¡Lograr una gran educación para todos los estudiantes, independientemente de la calle en la que vivan, es posible juntos! Adelante,

Iris Altamirano

Elegir una escuela – continúa

dent fi en opciones Infórmese acerca de los diferentes tipos de escuelas

1 Escuela del distrito 1.

Una escuela pública gratuita administrada por las Escuelas Públicas de Minneapolis (Minneapolis Public Schools) que se rige por la Junta de Educación de Minneapolis (Minneapolis Board of Education). Generalmente tienen el mismo proceso de inscripción y están abiertas a todos los estudiantes pero pueden tener zonas geográficas restringidas. Algunas escuelas del distrito son escuelas especializadas (magnet schools), que ofrecen un tema de aprendizaje o método de enseñanza diferente y habitualmente atraen a familias de un área de asistencia más grande.

22 Escuela autónoma (charter school) Una escuela pública gratuita regida por una junta directiva sin fines de lucro, y supervisada por un “autorizador” de una escuela autónoma sin fines de lucro aprobada por el Departamento de Educación de Minnesota o “MDE”. Están abiertas a todos los estudiantes, y cada escuela tiene su propia solicitud y proceso de inscripción. 3 Escuela independiente 3.

Una escuela privada regida por una junta directiva sin fines de lucro. Cobran matrícula (pero muchas veces ofrecen ayuda financiera a familias de bajos ingresos) y los estudiantes tienen que solicitar a cada escuela y ser aceptados para asistir.

¿Cuáles características son más importantes para usted? Haga una lista de las características que son importantes para usted y su hijo. ¿Es importante para usted tener un programa determinado después de la escuela? ¿Hay idiomas que usted quiere que su hijo aprenda? Tal vez no encuentre una escuela que cumpla todo lo de su lista, pero encontrar una escuela que incluya la mayoría le ayudará a encontrar escuelas que cubran sus necesidades. Para ayudarle, actualizamos los perfiles de las escuelas de Minneapolis, incluyendo la información de contacto, datos destacados, académicos y demográficos. Revise los perfiles. Le recomendamos identificar de tres a cinco escuelas preferidas que cumplan con sus requisitos.

Considere lo siguiente…

Revise los perfiles escolares, visite los sitios web, tome un recorrido de las escuelas Rendimiento acad mico y datos demogr ficos Los legisladores, con participación de los educadores, diseñaron los estándares académicos de Minnesota para evaluar si una escuela está preparando a sus estudiantes para el éxito universitario y profesional. La información en los perfiles escolares, incluyendo el rendimiento académico en la evaluación estatal, el índice de graduación, una calificación académica y los datos demográficos de una escuela, pueden ayudarle a determinar qué tan bien la escuela está satisfaciendo las necesidades de sus estudiantes y su comunidad, y cómo se compara con otras escuelas en Minneapolis y en todo el estado. Cultura y ambiente Infórmese acerca de la misión de la escuela. ¿Cuáles son sus creencias, valores y suposiciones acerca de su hijo? ¿Cómo es que ofrecen el mejor ambiente para el aprendizaje? Cada escuela es diferente para los estudiantes, un enfoque único no satisface las necesidades de todos los estudiantes. Instrucción en el aula y programas ¿Qué aprenderá su hijo y cómo se asegurará la escuela de que sea relevante para las necesidades sociales y emocionales de sus estudiantes? ¿Qué tan bien aborda la escuela específicamente los intereses, aspiraciones y cultura de su hijo en su plan de estudios y programas? ¿Cuáles son los tipos de programas académicos y actividades extracurriculares que se ofrecen? Horario escolar, transporte y movilidad Los horarios, incluyendo programas de antes y después de la escuela, y el transporte varían de una escuela a otra. Llame a las escuelas para saber si su estructura cumple con las necesidades de su familia. Sí usted, o algún conocido, se encuentra sin hogar o encarcelado, existen recursos para mantener la inscripción, la asistencia y el éxito como prioridades principales vía la ley llamada ‘McKinney-Vento Homeless Education Assistance Improvements Act’. Hay transporte disponible para los estudiantes en cuidado temporal fuera del distrito escolar al que están asistiendo al momento de la 53 colocación. Consulte con la escuela para más información.

2 Visiten algunas escuelas Póngase en contacto con las escuelas en su lista de preferidas y programe una visita Preguntas para padres, de padres Asegúrese de hacer muchas preguntas durante la visita. Revise todo lo que averiguó y determine cuáles escuelas son las más adecuadas para su familia.

1.1 ¿Cómo puede su escuela adaptarse al estilo de aprendizaje e intereses de mi hijo? Las escuelas estupendas pueden estimular a su hijo pero también satisfacer sus necesidades e involucrarlos en su propio aprendizaje. Todos los niños tienen diferentes estilos de aprendizaje, habilidades e intereses. ¿Qué es necesario que usted y su hijo tengan en la escuela, y qué pueden complementar en casa o en la comunidad? ¿Qué tan relevante es el plan de estudios para los intereses de su hijo? ¿Cómo tendrá su hijo voluntad y voz en su trayecto educativo? 2 ¿Cómo están conectando los conocimientos académicos con 2. las habilidades para la vida real?

¿Cómo preparan a los estudiantes para la universidad, el trabajo y la vida adulta? Las escuelas locales varían en su habilidad de enseñar a los estudiantes a leer bien, entender las matemáticas, ser pensadores críticos, y preparar a los estudiantes para la universidad y las carreras profesionales. ¿Qué datos estudia la escuela para saber cómo les está yendo? ¿Ofrecen pasantías o exponen a los estudiantes a universidades y oportunidades profesionales, p. ej.: P.S.E.O? 54

Qu entorno crea su escuela para conectar con la cultura, la raza y el origen étnico de mi hijo? Cada escuela es única en la forma en que aprecian e interactúan con estudiantes de diferentes orígenes. Dependiendo de sus prioridades, podría preguntar cómo la escuela genera oportunidades para que su hijo aprenda sobre la diversidad, o cómo han incorporado culturas específicas en la instrucción. 4 ¿Cuánto tiempo han estado enseñando en su escuela los 4. maestros? ¿Cuáles son sus orígenes?

La eficacia de los maestros es el principal factor dentro de la escuela para el éxito de los estudiantes. ¿Los maestros conocen la escuela, a los estudiantes y a las familias? ¿Están construyendo relaciones positivas con los estudiantes? La capacitación y el apoyo continuo al maestro afectan la cultura e instrucción en el aula. 5 ¿Cuáles son sus políticas disciplinarias? ¿Cuáles son sus 5. índices de suspensión y expulsión?

¿Cómo maneja la escuela la mala conducta? ¿Quién se encarga del comportamiento? ¿Cómo documentan y comunican las preocupaciones de conducta a los padres? ¿Hay un oficial de recursos escolares, o “SRO”? ¿Alguna vez llaman a los oficiales de policía? De ser así, ¿bajo qué circunstancias? 6 ¿Cuáles son los programas disponibles para mi hijo? 6.

Desde servicios de orientación hasta deportes, cada escuela es diferente. ¿Cuáles son los programas de antes y después de la escuela y actividades extracurriculares disponibles para los estudiantes? ¿Hay programas en la escuela para ayudar a su hijo a prepararse para ingresar a la universidad? Si es así, ¿cuáles son? 7 ¿Cómo se involucran los padres? 7.

¿Con qué frecuencia se comunican los maestros con los padres? ¿Realizan visitas a domicilio? ¿Se comunican con los padres acerca del desarrollo académico y social de su hijo antes de que el estudiante se retrase? ¿Y cómo se incluye a los padres, desde conferencias hasta actividades de voluntariado? ¿Cómo pueden los padres ser parte del proceso de toma de decisiones de la escuela? ¿La escuela ofrece recursos a las familias? 8 ¿Los estudiantes y las familias se sienten conectados con la 8. escuela, su gente y sus pol ticas procedimientos?

¿Hay adultos en la escuela a los que su hijo puede acudir en momentos de necesidad? ¿Estos adultos también son accesibles para las familias? 55

Soliciten e inscríbanse Familiarícese con los procesos de las escuelas que le interesan Presente la solicitud en dos o tres escuelas, puesto que algunas escuelas pueden no tener espacio para todos los estudiantes que solicitan. Después, realice la inscripción en la escuela que considere más adecuada. Asegúrese de tener suficiente tiempo para completar el papeleo, ya que el proceso de solicitud puede ser único para cada escuela. Las escuelas de distrito participan en el mismo proceso de inscripción. Las escuelas autónomas (charter schools) y las escuelas independientes ejecutan sus propios procesos de solicitud e inscripción (esto significa que usted necesitará llenar una solicitud para cada escuela de su interés y la escuela le informará cuando sea tiempo de completar el papeleo de inscripción). Las escuelas de distrito por lo general inician el proceso de inscripción en el invierno y las escuelas autónomas generalmente inician el proceso a fines del otoño. Asegúrese de volver a revisar con la escuela de distrito o autónoma que le interese para estar seguro.

Consejos adicionales para las diferentes escuelas… Escuelas de distrito Los estudiantes se inscriben a través del mismo sistema completando el ‘Formulario de solicitud de escuela’ (School Request Form): • Entregue un formulario cuando ingrese a su niño al pre-kínder (PreK), al kínder o cuando cambie de escuelas. • Durante las transiciones a la escuela intermedia (middle school) o secundaria (high school, ), entregue un formulario si va a inscribir a su hijo en una escuela no designada como su escuela “comunitaria” o “via de acceso (pathway)”. • Si desea inscribir a su hijo en un distrito fuera de su vecindario, Minneapolis pone esa opción a su disposición. Se llama inscripción abierta (“open enrollment”) y las solicitudes se realizan completando el formulario ‘Statewide 56 Enrollment Options’, firmado por el padre, tutor legal o padre de crianza temporal.

La inscripción se basa en tres zonas geográficas de asistencia y 22 áreas de asistencia. La zona y el área donde reside pueden afectar la facilidad con la que puede inscribirse en una escuela. El distrito le da prioridad a los estudiantes que desean asistir a las escuelas dentro de su área y luego zona; los estudiantes que desean asistir a la misma escuela que un hermano también reciben prioridad. Las escuelas especializadas y los programas de toda la ciudad no dan prioridad a áreas o zonas. Acceda en línea a los formularios de inscripción: schoolrequest.mpls.k12. mn.us/documents/k-8_request_form_english.pdf (grados PreK-8.º) y highschoolrequest.mpls.k12.mn.us/documents/hs_request_form_english. PDF (grados 9-12). Para más información visite: schoolrequest.mpls.k12. mn.us/home (grades PreK-8) and highschoolrequest.mpls.k12.mn.us/ home2 home2 (grados 9-12.º). Puede solicitar estos materiales en la mayoría de las oficinas de las escuelas. Para obtener ayuda, comuníquese con el Centro de colocación de estudiantes del distrito (the district’s Student Placement Center): (612) 668-1840.

Escuelas autónomas (charter schools) Cada escuela requiere una solicitud por separado. Para acceder a la solicitud, visite el sitio web de su escuela preferida o comuníquese con la escuela utilizando la información en el perfil. Los plazos de solicitud difieren de una escuela a otra. Nota: las escuelas autónomas no requieren exámenes de ingreso o limitan la admisión de niños en función de la capacidad intelectual, las medidas de rendimiento o aptitud, o las habilidades atléticas. Si la cantidad de solicitudes que recibe una escuela autónoma supera su capacidad, lleva a cabo un sorteo para determinar cuales niños pueden inscribirse y establecer una lista de espera en caso de que haya espacios disponibles para estudiantes adicionales más adelante. Para obtener más información, comuníquese con la Asociación de Escuelas Autónomas de Minnesota (Minnesota Association of Charter Schools): (651) 789-3090.

Escuelas independientes Cada escuela ejecuta su propio proceso de inscripción con materiales de solicitud por separado. Como escuelas privadas, tienen criterios de admisión únicos. Pueden pedir boletas de calificaciones o requerir a posibles estudiantes que visiten y realicen una entrevista. La mayoría de las escuelas independientes cobran matrícula, pero ofrecen ayuda financiera a algunos estudiantes. Si está solicitando ayuda financiera, pueden pedirle materiales adicionales. Para acceder a estos materiales, visite el sitio web de su escuela preferida o contáctelos usando la información en el perfil. Obtenga más información acerca de las escuelas independientes llamando al Foro de Escuelas Independientes de Minnesota (Minnesota Independent School Forum): (651) 297-6716.

sc elas e red cen la brecha de oportunidades Escuelas cambiando las probabilidades en Minneapolis

Estas escuelas están cambiando las probabilidades para estudiantes de diversos orígenes socioeconómicos; tienen resultados de pruebas que indican que su programa académico es sólido y funciona bien. Según los datos de la Evaluación Integral de Minnesota (Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment), o “MCA”, los estudiantes de estas escuelas obtienen mejores resultados que el promedio o avanzan más rápido de lo esperado. Vea más sobre este cálculo en las páginas 16-21. Desafortunadamente no todas las escuelas pueden demostrar resultados académicos fuertes con todos los estudiantes. La lista de escuelas cambiando las probabilidades en la página opuesta se enfoca en las escuelas con el 40% o más de sus estudiantes identificados como de bajos ingresos, a través del programa federal FRL. Estas escuelas han demostrado tener éxito sirviendo a las familias más necesitadas. El MCA es el examen anual de Minnesota para medir el logro estudiantil, para que los legisladores, defensores y educadores puedan entender cómo los estudiantes, en su conjunto, cumplen los estándares estatales y nuestra capacidad para reducir la brecha de oportunidades. En esta guía, los puntajes se informan de dos maneras, competencia y crecimiento. Los estudiantes considerados “competentes” han cumplido con los estándares estatales establecidos por MDE para su grado. En cuanto al crecimiento, MDE mide cuánto ha aumentado el aprendizaje demostrado de un estudiante con base en los puntajes del examen del año anterior. Almuerzo gratis o de precio reducido En el perfil de cada escuela, encontrará el porcentaje de estudiantes que reciben almuerzo gratis o de precio reducido, o “FRL”. Esta es la representación del gobierno federal para medir cuántos niños provienen de un entorno de bajos ingresos. Provee un contexto sobre cómo el rendimiento académico de una escuela afecta a algunos de los estudiantes más vulnerables de nuestra ciudad.

Esta guía incluye los perfiles de las escuelas de Minneapolis (más las escuelas fuera de los límites de la ciudad que sirven al menos el 50% de estudiantes que viven en Minneapolis). Aunque una escuela completa no se puede resumir en una sola página, los perfiles brindan información básica: tamaño de la escuela y datos demográficos, información de contacto y rendimiento académico. Los perfiles son un punto de partida para encontrar una escuela que pueda ser adecuada para su hijo. A Información destacada A.

Características y programa únicos de la escuela. Cada escuela ofrece mucho más de lo que aparece en la lista, por lo tanto considérela como un punto de partida. Póngase en contacto con las escuelas y consulte sus sitios web para obtener más información. (Todas las escuelas tuvieron la oportunidad de presentar su información destacada, también la recopilamos de sus sitios web y llamándoles.) B Íconos B.

Indica que la escuela provee algo especial, como pre-kínder (PreK), desayuno o programas para después de la escuela. Escuelas cambiando las probabilidades Escuelas que han demostrado tener éxito sirviendo a las familias más necesitadas. Uniformes Ropa requerida que todos los estudiantes de una escuela deben usar, esta podría incluir camisas de botones, faldas plisadas, sacos o corbatas.

atos demogr ficos

La información sobre la inscripción de los estudiantes, la raza/etnia y los maestros provienen de los registros de MDE del año escolar 2016-17 y pueden no reflejar precisamente los datos demográficos actuales de la escuela: • Tasa FRL – El almuerzo gratis o de precio reducido (Free and Reduced Lunch o FRL) es un término común que se utiliza para articular el porcentaje de estudiantes en un edificio que experimentan pobreza. Es determinado por el número de estudiantes que califican para almuerzos gratuitos o de precio reducido (según el estatus de asistencia pública o al completar un formulario en la escuela). • Datos demográficos de los estudiantes: los estudiantes son identificados por una de las siete etnias reportadas en Minnesota, según los documentos de inscripción completados por los padres. • Maestros de color: el porcentaje de maestros que no se identifican como blancos. Este conteo es sólo para los maestros con licencia y no refleja la diversidad de todo el personal. La mayoría de las escuelas de Minneapolis sobrepasan el promedio estatal de 4% de maestros de color.

D. alificaci n acad mica Los perfiles de las escuelas tienen calificaciones académicas documentadas por tres años de datos de competencia y crecimiento del MCA y para las escuelas secundarias con datos de ACT. Las escuelas con suficientes datos para analizar recibieron una de las cinco clasificaciones: alto rendimiento, alto potencial, medio rendimiento, bajo rendimiento o bajo rendimiento persistente. Además de observar los datos de competencia y crecimiento de tres años del MCA, los siguientes criterios determinaron las calificaciones: Para las escuelas secundarias, si una escuela tiene más del 40% de sus estudiantes que optan por no participar en la prueba de MCA, se usa un puntaje promedio de ACT para determinar su clasificación. El examen ACT es un indicador de la preparación para la universidad y generalmente se toma en 11.° o 12.° grado. Muchas universidades consideran que 21 es el puntaje mínimo que indica la preparación para la universidad. Las escuelas secundarias con puntajes promedio de ACT entre 21-36 se consideran de alto rendimiento, las puntuaciones entre 1820 se consideran de alto potencial y una calificación promedio de 17 o inferior no se clasifican. Los puntajes en dos de tres años determinan la calificación. 62

Lograr una combinación de resultados de alto potencial y bajo rendimiento en al menos 2 de los últimos 3 años (debido a que el MCA sólo se ofrece una vez al año y comienza en 3.er grado, considere hacer preguntas sobre el rendimiento de los estudiantes más jóvenes o cómo les va en otros indicadores - vea la página XX para ejemplos de preguntas) Lograr bajo rendimiento en al menos 2 de los últimos 3 años: • El dominio de MCA estuvo en el 25% inferior de las escuelas de Minneapolis*, o • El crecimiento de MCA estuvo en el 25% inferior de las escuelas de Minneapolis* Lograr bajo rendimiento en al menos 2 de los últimos 3 años: • El dominio de MCA estuvo en el 25% inferior de las escuelas de Minneapolis*, y • El crecimiento de MCA estuvo en el 25% inferior de las escuelas de Minneapolis*

• DATOS LIMITADOS: datos insuficientes para clasificar para una calificación. • ALTERNATIVA: tienden a tener poblaciones pequeñas y, por lo tanto, tienen datos limitados para determinar una calificación. • ESCUELA INDEPENDIENTE: no se requiere que administren la prueba de MCA. Algunos de sus logros se incluyen en “Información Destacada” en sus perfiles.

Consejo: Si una escuela tiene una

calificación de “otra”, asegúrese de preguntar sobre su rendimiento académico.

o leer los perfiles de las escuelas – continúa E % de competencia E. La Evaluación Integral de Minnesota (Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment o MCA) mide la competencia en matemáticas y lectura de los estudiantes, y es un indicador del aprendizaje estudiantil. Nuestro estado considera que un alumno es “competente” si cumple con los estándares establecidos por MDE para su grado. Los perfiles de las escuelas muestran el porcentaje de estudiantes competentes en matemáticas y lectura en 2017. Por ejemplo: si el dominio de las matemáticas figura en la lista como 62%, eso significa que 62 de cada 100 estudiantes son competentes en esa materia. Entre más alto es el número, significa que más estudiantes en la escuela están alcanzando los estándares establecidos por el estado. Los datos de competencia por categorías demográficas se proporcionan para las escuelas que tienen más de 10 estudiantes de ese grupo demográfico en cada grado evaluado.

F % en camino (sólo para Prek-8) F. Esta es una medida de cuánto crecen académicamente los estudiantes de una escuela cada año. Nuestro estado mide esto al comparar puntajes de MCA previos y actuales. Específicamente, el puntaje de crecimiento de cada estudiante se calcula al restar el puntaje de competencia de MCA de su año anterior al puntaje de competencia de MCA del año corriente. Todos los estudiantes que logran un alto crecimiento, así como los estudiantes que logran un crecimiento medio, y son competentes, se consideran en camino. Los estudiantes en camino han obtenido una puntaje de competente o se están acercando al nivel de competencia. El porcentaje en camino representa el porcentaje de estudiantes que están en camino dentro de una escuela, dividido en matemáticas y lectura. Es importante tener en cuenta tanto el nivel de competencia como el crecimiento del aprendizaje de los alumnos. Si bien la competencia ilustra cuántos estudiantes actualmente cumplen con los estándares estatales, el crecimiento reflejará los cambios en las tasas de aprendizaje de los estudiantes, y si los estudiantes están avanzando hacia la competencia. Permite ver el progreso en una escuela, incluso si los estudiantes aún no han alcanzado el nivel de competencia. Los datos de crecimiento por categorías demográficas se proporcionan para las escuelas que tienen más de 10 estudiantes de ese grupo demográfico en cada grado evaluado. 64

G G. Índice de graduación de 4 y 5 años (sólo para high school) Minnesota utiliza un modelo de “índice de graduación de grupo ajustado”, que monitorea el porcentaje de estudiantes dentro de una escuela que se gradúan, ajustando por los estudiantes que se mudan. El índice de cuatro años muestra el porcentaje de los que se graduaron en cuatro años luego de haber entrado en 9.o grado. El índice de graduación de cinco años reconoce que hay estudiantes que pueden tomar más tiempo para cumplir con los requisitos de graduación, y monitorea el porcentaje de estudiantes que reciben el diploma en cinco años. Las escuelas deben tener al menos 10 estudiantes en el grupo de graduación para recibir un índice de graduación. H H. Puntaje promedio del ACT (sólo para high school) Como se indica en la sección D en la página 18, el ACT es un examen nacional para medir la probabilidad que tiene un estudiante de ser exitoso en la universidad, y es utilizado por muchas universidades durante el proceso de admisión. Generalmente se presenta en el 11.o ó 12.o grado. Muchas universidades consideran que un puntaje 21 es lo mínimo para indicar la preparación para la universidad.

Recursos adicionales Cuidado infantil y preescolar Recursos para los primeros años

Para padres de bebés, niños pequeños y preescolares, los Parent Aware Ratings pueden ayudarle a encontrar los mejores programas de cuidado infantil y preescolar. Estos programas pueden ayudar a su hijo a prepararse para tener éxito en la escuela.

Comience temprano en la vida Incluso los bebés y los niños pequeños necesitan lugares estupendos para aprender a través del juego estimulante. Después de todo, hasta el 90 por ciento del desarrollo del cerebro ha ocurrido antes de los cinco años. Casi la mitad de los niños de Minnesota no están listos para el kínder y muchos no se ponen al día en los años posteriores. Por lo tanto, es importante que los bebés, niños pequeños y preescolares asistan a programas de cuidado infantil y preescolar que sean buenos para ayudar a los niños a aprender. A esta edad, los niños aprenden a través de actividades de juego estimulantes y eso es lo que ofrecen los programas de cuidado infantil y preescolar de alta calidad. Realmente hace una gran diferencia para los niños pequeños.

Búsqueda en línea de programas de calidad ¿Cómo pueden los padres encontrar los mejores programas de aprendizaje temprano? The Parent Aware Ratings es un sistema simple de cuatro estrellas que le dice a los padres qué programas, en centros, hogares, escuelas o iglesias, están utilizando las mejores prácticas para preparar a los niños para el kínder. De forma gratuita, los padres pueden ir a www.ParentAware.org para buscar en más de 12,000 programas de cuidado infantil y preescolar en Minnesota. Las búsquedas en línea solo demoran unos segundos. Ayuda en persona también está disponible en inglés, español, hmong y somalí en (888) 291-9811.

Ayuda para pagar programas de calidad

Las Becas de Aprendizaje Temprano (Early Learning Scholarships) ayudan a las familias más necesitadas a pagar por cuidado infantil y preescolar de alta calidad. Se otorgan hasta $7,500 para el uso en programas que participan en Parent Aware. Las familias de Minneapolis pueden obtener más información llamando al (651) 641-6604.
