SPHS Preparing for the WASC Visitation

Santa Paula High School will welcome the seven member WASC visiting committee to our campus March 13th through the 16th, 2011.

The committee members’ four day visit is to validate the Santa Paula High School Self Study Report that was completed over a 12 month period.

What they will find is a high school that is committed to providing our students with a safe, caring environment focused on student achievement and the California Content Standards. Outside the classroom they will see extracurricular programs that allow our students to explore their interests beyond the classroom in areas of sports, music, and the arts.

Our WASC visitation represents over 12 months of work by our school community and stakeholders. The process was a tremendous benefit to our understanding of our school and the work we do. Through the exploration of our school program we were able to celebrate all the things we do well and to critically examine areas where we need to improve.

All stakeholders at Santa Paula High School including community members, parents, students, teachers, and staff look forward to the visitation and the opportunity to celebrate all the wonderful things our “Campus on the Hill” has to offer.
