Accountability Report To the Community GUAM JAPAN KOREA OKINAWA School Year 1999-2000 Department of Defense Dependents Schools, Pacific GUIDING PRINCIPLES for the Department of Defense Education Activity, DoDDS Pacific All students must have equal access to high quality education and the opportunity to be challenged to perform at higher levels of achievement. Accountability is an integral part of the educational process. The National Education Goals and the DoDEA Community Strategic Plan provide a framework for academic excellence. High expectations from positive, motivated and competent staff promote excellence. Everyone can be an active, life-long learner Student success is a shared responsibility and requires the full participation of all stakeholders; e.g., parents, military personnel and educators. Everyone must demonstrate a respect for individual and cultural diversity and civic responsibility; e.g., respecting the rights of others, honesty, fairness, and justice. 1 Accountability Report Dear Community Member, It is with great pride that I present the first Accountability Report to the Community for the Department of Defense Dependents Schools Pacific. Last year, the intent of the Department of Defense Education Activityís (DoDEA) reorganization was to move the management of educational and support operations into the field. As a result deputy directors were identified to direct regional operations in the Pacific, Europe, and our stateside systems. As the DoDEA Deputy Director for DoDDS Pacific, my duties include the oversight of Japan, Okinawa, Korea, and Guam districts as well as the management of all operations and support services and resource allocation. During school year 1999-2000, my focus remained steadfast on the challenges set forth by the National Education Goals 2000 and the DoDEA Community Strategic Plan. Our emphasis has been on quality education for all students through a continual improvement process that embraces high levels of student achievement, top-notch teachers, safe schools, community partnerships, and two-way communication. My opportunity to make major decisions about the direction of our operations within the Pacific and to work closely with our military and parent partners is critical to attaining our goal of preparing every learner for success in a dynamic global environment. On the pages that follow, you will see the progress we have made in the Pacific. We have accomplished more than we expected, but there is still work to do. I invite each of you to become involved with our dependentsí education as we strive toward high standards and high outcomes for our children. Sincerely, Nancy C. Bresell DoDDS Pacific Deputy Director 2 PACIFIC PROFILE There are 41 Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) schools within four districts in the Pacific Area. Three districts--Japan, Korea, and Okinawa--serve students in 37 schools in overseas locations under the Department of Defense Dependents Schools (DoDDS), while Guam district serves students in four Domestic Dependents Elementary and Secondary Schools (DDESS) in the U.S. Territory of Guam. Along with the 41 DoD dependents schools within the Pacific, there are 2560 employees, and over 26,800 students from grades Pre-K to 12. Japan and Okinawa are the two largest districts, and Korea is the smallest within the DoDDS worldwide System.

Instructional strategies and student outcomes are vigorously tied to the School Improvement Process. High standards, expectations and performance are achieved through various approaches: implementing special programs to accelerate learning training teachers in new instructional strategies establishing programs for students with specific needs strengthening school community partnerships SPECIAL PROGRAMS Sure Start, a program for preschoolers from low-income families, offers a solid foundation in education and social development. Within the Pacific, 19 programs are running in 17 schools. The nationally-renowned Reading Recovery program gives intensive one-on-one instruction to first graders. The Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) Program provides a specialized class for the middle-achieving, under-represented middle- and high-school student. TEACHER TRAINING Each year, the DoDDS Pacific Deputy Director's Office, in collaboration with Pacific districts, supports numerous workshops and other professional development opportunities for teachers, administrators, and education support specialists within the Pacific. During the first semester of 1999-2000, the Deputy Director's Office held 11 trainings/conferences for over 550 educators/administrators relating to their current assignments. The Deputy Director's Office plays a central role in coordinating joint training efforts with our military service agencies. The Early Assistance Program, in its second year, is designed to help teachers utilize the most effective instructional strategies for optimal student achievement. The 10 DoD Pacific schools receiving Early Assistance training are those that have the most potential for gains in overall student achievement. Early Assistance training is a proactive, ongoing process that ensures the academic needs of all students are being met. During September, 1999, the Teacher Mentor Program was enhanced to include Pacific-wide training. The program offers teachers new to the DoDEA system, district or school an opportunity to work with experienced teachers to receive the assistance they need to maximize their effectiveness in the classroom at the start of the school year. 4 SPECIAL PROGRAMS DoD Pacific schools offer programs for students with special needs. Such programs include: Talented and Gifted, English as a Second Language, and Advanced Placement. SUMMER SCHOOL During the summer of 1999, student enrollment in summer school was at 395 students in Guam, Japan, Korea, and Okinawa. Programs offered included remediation and enrichment in language arts, mathematics, and reading at the elementary and middle school levels. High school courses offered for credit included Japanese I; English 9, 10, 11, and 12; and Algebra I. SPECIAL EDUCATION The Special Education Program provides instruction that is specially designed and based on the individual unique needs of students, ages 3-21. Specialists in each district provide services to students who are hearing, speech, and vision impaired. There are over 2,000 students receiving special education services within the Pacific including 885 in Japan; 227 in Korea; 791 in Okinawa; and 169 in Guam. COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIPS "Partners in Education" has been the overarching motto in the Pacific as we continue to reach out to the military and parents to ensure that our children are provided an exceptional education in our overseas environments. It is well known that when families, educators, and communities all work together, schools get better, resulting in higher levels of student achievement. PUPIL PERSONNEL SERVICES DoDDS Pacific has implemented programs and activities to prepare high school students for post-secondary education. Students, parents, educators and other professional staff members have received additional college preparatory information through locally available: Seminars on college admissions and financial aid given by College Board representatives. ExPAN training, a computerized college preparatory package available in each high school. College Board resource materials including 10 Real SATs, Real SATII, and The College Application Essay. In order to better meet student needs, our goal parallels the nationís goal of providing one counselor for every 300 students and one school psychologist for every 1,000 students. In the Pacific, an additional 33 counselors and 20 psychologists will be added. 5 TEACHERS AND STAFF We are proud of our high-quality teachers within the Pacific Area. Nearly 2000 employees serve as administrators, classroom teachers, special education specialists and support professionals within our four Pacific districts. Teacher preparations are similar to the nationís teacher preparation programs and facilitate the hiring of top-notch educators. Within the Pacific, over 50% of our teachers have MA/MS degrees and 3% boast doctorate degrees. Teacher mobility parallels that of the military with about 33 percent movement every year. Locally hired spouses of military and federal civilian employees assigned overseas are a valued component of the Pacific teaching staff. Coordinated with the North Central Association (NCA), our accrediting body, we now accept valid state teaching license with either seven years successful teaching experience or the state competency test requirement. This recent alignment with stateside practices allows our system greater flexibility in hiring locally. Number of New Teachers, 9/00 CONUS Hires, Japan-70, Korea-50, Okinawa-49, Guam-5 Local Hires, Japan-25, Korea-19, Okinawa-40, Guam-25 TECHNOLOGY EDUCATION DoDDS Pacific schools are ahead of our stateside counterparts with a student to computer average ratio of 5:1 in grades K-12; the target is 2:1. State-of-the-art computers are available in classrooms, computer laboratories, and information centers. School campuses are fully networked to provide classroom access to network resources such as the Internet and CD-ROM titles located in the Information Center. We are committed to the professional development of teachers in the area of information technology and the integration of technology throughout the curriculum. In collaboration with the Pacific districts, four specialized workshops have been provided to approximately 135 educators covering web site development, integration of technology across the curriculum, file server and network operation, and workstation setup and configuration. Educational Technologists (ET's) provide hands-on technical training and model the integration and infusion of technology in the regular curriculum and Administrative Technologists (AT's) assist with the operation and maintenance of the local area networks/fileservers and provide technical support throughout the school. The number of ET's and AT's has nearly doubled in the last year. During school year '98-'99, 2500 new Pentium computers were placed in our 3 DoDDS districts and 80 in DDESS Guam. This fiscal year, 2800 additional new computers were shipped to DoDDS districts and 132 to Guam. These computers support classrooms, information centers, and computer labs within our schools. DISTANCE LEARNING Distance Learning (DL), in which courses are offered electronically, is open to all high school students. Specifically, the program benefits students from schools with small enrollments to take classes that are not offered locally or that don't fit into their schedule. It also benefits senior students transferring in from other school systems who discover a particular course is needed for graduation. In the Pacific, 152 students in grades 9-12 enrolled in DL courses during the current school year. Because of the demand for DL, five new courses were added in 1999. Distance Learning professional development courses are also available for educators. Within the Pacific, 14 elementary and secondary school teachers have taken advantage of DL offerings. 6 STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT CTB/McGraw-Hill TerraNova While we continue to study the achievement variances among gender, race, and ethnic populations, we are pleased to announce that DoD Pacific students have topped the national average (50th percentile) on the standardized CTB/McGraw-Hill TerraNova in all subjects (language arts, reading, social studies, and mathematics) and at all grade levels (3-11).

In writing, our DoDDS and DDESS fourth-grade African American students ranked 1st among all African American students tested; Hispanic students ranked 1st among all Hispanic students tested; and Asian students ranked 5th among all Asian students tested. 1998 NAEP Average Writing Scores--Grade 4 DODDS AFRICAN-AMERICAN-212 DDESS AFRICAN-AMERICAN-209 NATION AFRICAN-AMERICAN-193 DODDS HISPANIC-216 DDESS HISPANIC-211 NATION HISPANIC-188 SCHOLASTIC APTITUDE TEST SAT scores range from 200 (lowest) to 800 (highest). DoD Pacific studentsí scores remain consistent with previous yearsí scores. SAT measures verbal and mathematical reasoning abilities related to successful performance in college and is intended to supplement the studentís secondary school record. When compared with other states with similar high participation rates, our students outscore many of their stateside counterparts. 1999 SAT Scores--DoD Pacific Pacific Area, 55% Tested,Verbal-510, Math-508, Total-1018 DoDEA, 63% Tested, Verbal-504, Math-498, Total-1012 U.S.A., 43% Tested, Verbal-505, Math-511, Total-1016 8 FAR EAST ACTIVITIES Over 2800 DoD Pacific students participate in 18 Far East activities throughout the school year, hosted in various districts within the Pacific. An extensive program of athletic tournaments and non-athletic events affords students from Guam, Japan, Korea, and Okinawa the opportunity to attend Pacificwide competitions which are equivalent to large format competitions in the U.S. The Far East Activities athletic program enables students to travel and interact with competitors from all participating schools, as well as international and public schools throughout the Pacific. Each year, the Far East Activities Council prepares an events schedule. All Far East activities are coordinated by the Council. 1999-2000 Far East Activities Schedule Tennis Nov.

Of the 794 students reported to have graduated in 1999, 632 intended to enroll in post-secondary education--either a twoor four-year college/university or a vocational program. This accounts for 80% of the graduating class. Ivy League, military academies and many wellknown top tier stateside and international institutions were included among 300 colleges/universities chosen. Generally, those graduates not intending to enroll in a college/university continue on to either a job or apprenticeship position or enlist in the military. With a graduation rate of over 97%, DoD Pacific students exceeded the benchmark for the year 2000 by 7%. 51 ROTC Scholarships 10 Academy Appointments 4 National Merit Scholars Seventy-seven scholarships equaling $10,914,000 were awarded to Pacific graduates. 10 FACILITIES Full Day Kindergarten Because of the strong community interest in full day kindergarten, several schools were able to accomplish early implementation within existing facilities or in nearby military provided space during school year 1999-2000. All Pacific elementary schools should have full day kindergarten by August of 2003. In August of 1999, ten schools opened their doors to full day kindergarten programs--Arnn Elementary School (Japan); Bob Hope Primary School and Killin, Kinser, Bechtel, Zukeran, and Stearley Heights Elementary Schools (Okinawa); E.T. Joy Elementary School and Pusan American School (Korea). Two months later in Korea, Taegu American and Osan elementary Schools (including the Camp Humphreys Annex of Osan Elementary School) implemented full day programs bringing the total to 12 schools. In addition, Guam South and Andersen Elementary Schools offer full day programs. During the first year of the kindergarten initiative, working closely with our military partners, the Pacific succeeded in getting full day kindergartens started in 50 percent of the schools offering kindergarten. New School Construction In Japan and Okinawa, major construction for new schools is provided by the Government of Japan (GOJ) host nation funded construction program. Over the past 20 years, the GOJ has provided over 2 million square feet of new school facilities construction worth approximately 400 million dollars at todayís prices. The latest additions from this GOJ program will be new buildings at Sullivans ES and the new Yokota Middle School, which will open in August, 2000. In Korea and Guam, additional facilities are acquired through the DoDEA funded military construction program (MILCON). A ground breaking ceremony was held January 2000 to launch the beginning of the Andersen Elementary School and Andersen Middle School MILCON project. 11 Class Size and Pupil to Teacher Ratio While our goal is to reduce the pupil teacher ratio in grades 1-3 from 23:1 to 18:1, the full-day kindergarten and reduced pupil teacher ratio implementations in Korea, Japan, and Okinawa are driven by facilities--approximately 134 classrooms are required to achieve full implementation. During school year 1999-2000, we have achieved the goal to reduce the pupil to teacher ratio in Pusan American School and E.T. Joy Elementary School (Korea) and in Guam-South Elementary School (Guam). Safe Schools DoD Pacific Schools have a historical ìsafe schoolsî record. With two exceptions, all schools are located on military bases or in housing areas. Under the federal law Gun-Free Schools Act of 1994, public schools are required to implement a one-year expulsion for students who carry a firearm to school. Weapons are not tolerated in DoDEA schools. During 1999-2000 the Deputy Directorís Office published a brochure for dissemination to all Pacific school communities outlining our Zero Tolerance Weapons Policy as well as the consequences for violation of the policy.

PACTMO operates ten school bus offices and three district offices in Okinawa, mainland Japan, and Korea. In Guam, the district superintendent oversees student transportation operations. Within the Pacific, transportation is provided to over 26,000 students for daily commuting, sporting events, field trips, after school activities, cooperative work experience, and for students with disabilities or special needs. Transportation offices provide training to PACTMO safety attendants, bus drivers, and to over 18,000 elementary students twice yearly. School bus officials work closely with school administrators and/or military commands who are responsible for overseeing local bus monitor program and student bus conduct. Transportation officials conduct comprehensive safety assessments on all bus stops. Commuting zones and walking zones are established for each school within the Pacific. Normally, the walking distance for grades 7-12 should not exceed 1.5 miles and grades K-6, 1.0 miles. 8,794 Miles per day 652 Runs 272 Vehicles 11,300 Riders 26 minutes average one-way run per registred bus rider PUBLICATIONS The DoDDS Pacific Deputy Directorís Office publishes the Pacifica, a publication of news and events from schools within the Pacific. Featured are articles and photographs from classrooms and schools within Guam, Japan, Korea, and Okinawa that further tell the story of the dynamic education our children are receiving. The publication is printed three times per year. Generally 1025 copies are circulated within the four Pacific districts, including the military commands. The SUN, a highly-praised journal of self-expression, is a 200-page collection of color photographs showcasing the literary works, musical compositions, photography, and visual art work of students and staff within DoD Pacific schools. Copies are sent to districts and military commands, and to each student whose entry was selected for publication. 13 ACCOUNTABILITY Communication Two-way communication is a primary goal in DoDDS Pacific. To strengthen communications among all stakeholders, a Communications Specialist position was established in the Deputy Directorís Office in 1998, and each district and school has key communicators responsible for ensuring that our publics are well informed on dependents' education topics. Keeping pace with the need for delivering information across the globe, in October 1999 DoDDS-Pacific unveiled its web site as another avenue for strengthening communications among our constituencies. DoDDS HOTLINE CALL: DoDDS-Pacific Deputy Directorís Office... 645-3982 E-mail: doddspaso_hotline@pac.odedodea.edu To improve communications with stakeholders, DoDDS Pacific Hotlines were established within each Pacific district office and at the Deputy Directorís Office. Newsletters In 1999, DoDEA Pacific News was established to inform Pacific military and educational leaders about policies, trends, research, programs and practices related to DoD dependentsí education. www.pac.odedodea.edu 14 ADVISORY cOUNCILS In March 1999, the Pacific Area Advisory Council, comprised of school community representatives throughout the Pacific theater, conducted its first meeting. The main goal of the advisory council is to advise and make recommendations to the Deputy Director about educational issues. During its December 1999 meeting, the Council offered three recommendations: 1. provide detailed communications to prospective employees about the critical aspects of working overseas and living in a foreign economy 2. establish a ìhigh standardsî academic achievement goal for students engaged in extracurricular activities; and 3. create a subcommittee to study the inclusion of service organizationsí youth programs as a part of Service Learning The establishment of the Pacific Area Advisory Council is a natural outgrowth of the local School Advisory Committee (SAC) and provides military, parent, teacher, student and community representatives an opportunity to discuss educational and logistical issues that are not able to be resolved at lower levels within the DoDEA chain of command. Advisory councils have also been implemented at the district superintendent level to augment the School Advisory Councils. The Guam School Board is also advisory in nature. Pacific Theater Education Council (PTEC) The PTEC consists of representatives from the Pacific Command, U.S. Forces Korea, U.S. Forces Japan, and educational representatives from component commands. Prior to their annual meeting, PTEC completes school visitations. It is their responsibility to look at successful educational programs and make recommendations to the Director, DoDEA, and to the DoDDS Pacific Deputy Director for improving dependentsí education overseas. 15 CUSTOMER SATISFACTION SURVEY The 1999 spring surveys revealed that parents had a higher rate of satisfaction than the parents who took the 1998 survey. Parents were asked about their levels of satisfaction % of satisfied parents with DoD Pacific schools in the following areas: 1998 1999 equipment and facilities .............................................................. 69 ................. 70 computer technology ................................................................... 66 ................. 68 school bus services ................................................................... 71 ................. 72 communications/involvement ............................................................ 71 ................. 73 child's teachers ...................................................................... 72 ................. 73 principal/administrator ............................................................... 71 ................. 72 curriculum/training ................................................................... 62 ................. 64 overall satisfaction .................................................................. 64 ................. 65 Students reported high levels of satisfaction with their teachers and computer technology; teachers indicated strong satisfaction with their careers, school atmosphere, and administration. Survey data is used in planning for the School Improvement Process within Pacific schools. PARTNERSHIPS We want our students to graduate from high school with the necessary skills and abilities for success in our fast-paced dynamic society. In DoDDS Pacific, parents and members of the community are involved in a five-tier parent partnership process to help promote the social, emotional, and academic growth of children through school and home collaboration. Within our districts and schools, parents are members of advisory councils, school-home-community partnership teams, school and district improvement teams, PTA and PTO; participate in department and grade-level meetings; and serve as volunteers. "America's Promise," an initiative to encourage every community member to play a more active role in improving education in their communities, has been widely endorsed by military commanders within the Pacific and has resulted in increased volunteerism in schools. Active duty Sailors, Marines, Airmen, and Soldiers as well as civilian employees participate in local education initiatives such as adopt-a-school, adopt-a-class, mentor, and tutor programs; some provide logistical support to schools. 16 DoDDS Pacific Deputy Director's Office District Operations-Guam-Japan-Korea-Okinawa Educational Services-AVID/Service Learning-Early Childhood Education-Intercultural Program-Library/Information Center Services-Pupil Personnel Services-School Improvement-Special Education-Technology Education-Visual and Performing Arts Operations & Support Services-Fiscal-Information Technology-Logistics-Personnel-Procurement-Transportation Administrative Services-Administrative/Clerical Support-Communication/Public Relations-Policy Support-Visual Information Department of Defense Dependents Schools Pacific Deputy Director's Office Unit 35007 FPO AP 96373-5007 E-mail: Deputy_Director_pac@pac.odedodea.edu Web Address: www.pac.odedodea.edu DSN Phone: 645-2241 Local Commercial: 098-876-0279 From the U.S.: 011-81-98-876-0279 With appreciation to everyone who contributed to the development of the DoDDS Pacific Accountability Report to the Community.
