Six OVSD Schools Named to California Honor Roll!
The Ocean View School District is pleased to announce that six schools have been selected by Educational Results Partnership (ERP) and the Campaign for Business and Education Excellence (CBEE) as six of 1,866 public schools in California to receive the title of 2016 Honor Roll School. Schools selected are: Circle View Elementary, Golden View Elementary, Lake View Elementary, Spring View Middle, Star View Elementary, and Vista View Middle.
“These six schools deserve a special round of applause for the exceptional work they are doing on behalf of all students,” said OVSD Superintendent, Dr. Carol Hansen. “We are especially proud of Lake, Star and Vista View Schools for receiving this distinction two years in a row!”
The Honor Roll is part of a national effort to identify higher-performing schools and highlight successful practices that improve outcomes for students. Schools receiving this distinction from leaders in the California academic and business communities have demonstrated consistent high levels of student academic achievement, improvement in achievement levels over time and reduction in achievement gaps among student populations.
“We are proud to recognize those schools and school districts who are succeeding in putting their students on a path of productivity that not only leads to success in the classroom, but also prepares them to contribute to and benefit from a more productive economy,” said Greg Jones, ERP and CBEE Board Chairman.
According to Jim Lanich, ERP President and CEO, “These schools are clearly doing something right and all schools, no matter what zip code they are in, can achieve this kind of success. School and school district leaders have a great opportunity to find out what’s working at these Honor Roll schools and replicate it.”
The California Honor Roll program is made possible with generous support from numerous businesses and organizations, including Automobile Club of Southern California, Macy’s, Wells Fargo, Enterprise Holdings Foundation, and several private foundations.
