K-12 Educational Partnership

Vertical Teams

Vertical Teamwork Articulation
Ascends the Heights

    The partnership between the Educational Partnership, housed at the University of California at Santa Cruz and the Pajaro Valley Unified School District has been designed to assist students in reaching Student Achievement Goal D by increasing the numbers of students eligible for the university school system anywhere in California.
     The partnership provides leadership through a shared coordinating position and vertical alignment, K-12 in the areas of math and language arts. The PVUSD focus on English language development (ELD) instructional strategies is integrated throughout.
     Vertical Team members are selected by the sites and paid for their time. They meet once a month and are responsible for the flow of information between sites. Consistency throughout the district in using standards-based instruction and data-driven instruction is provided through the meeting of these two teams.
     The district Data Source Book is produced by the partnership to provide data for the basis of analysis and planning for the sites, Vertical Team members, and the district. Results are explained in terms of data.

Watsonville High School Student Scholarship
Awards Night Inspiring
June 2002

Hello, all...I am amazed and inspired by this community which, last night awarded on the order of $200,000 (no mistake on those zeros) to approximately 85 WHS graduating seniors . Our students looked terrific and acted in a dignified manner. Too often, we forget that MANY of our students do have it together! Among the universities they will attend next year are: UC Berkeley, UC San Diego, UC Santa Cruz, UC Davis, UC Santa Barbara, UCLA, UC Riverside, Santa Clara University, Brigham Young University, Seattle University, San Jose State Univ., CSU Long Beach, San Diego State University, and CSU Monterey Bay. If you weren't able to attend this year, try to make it next year. It's a real upper!
