California Dept of Education (CDE) releases revised 2003-04 Academic Performance Index (API) Growth Reports January 26, 2005 On January 20, 2005, the California Department of Education (CDE) released revised 2003-04 Academic Performance Index (API) Growth Reports for all districts and schools in the state. The revised reports (dated January 13, 2005) are considered final 2003-04 API Growth Reports. The revised 2003-04 API Growth Report for San Diego City Schools indicates that: The district's 2003-04 API Growth score is 713, up 16 points from a 2003 API Base of 697. The Growth APIs of every numerically-significant subgroup increased: African American up 16, American Indian up 6, Asian up 20, Filipino up 14, Latino up 19, Pacific Islander up 24, White up 11, and socioeconomically disadvantaged up 21. Two schools (Central Elementary School and Morse High School) that originally did not meet schoolwide and subgroup targets on the 2003-04 Growth Report released on October 27, 2004 now meet both schoolwide and subgroup targets. Two schools (Lindbergh/Schweitzer and Walker Elementary Schools) that originally met both schoolwide and subgroup targets on the 2003-04 API Growth Report released on October 27, 2004 no longer meet schoolwide and subgroup targets. One school (Darnall E-Campus Charter School) that did not receive a 2003-04 API Growth Report on October 27, 2004 due to incomplete data now meets both schoolwide and subgroup targets according to the report released on January 20, 2005. The number/percent of schools meeting schoolwide and subgroup targets is unchanged (87 schools/51 percent). One fewer elementary school and one additional high school met schoolwide and subgroup targets, according to the revised API Growth Report. The number/percent of schools meeting schoolwide targets has increased from 115 schools/68 percent to 120 schools/70 percent - 79 schools/69 percent of elementary schools (up from 77 schools/69 percent), 17 schools/81 percent of middle/junior high schools (up from 15 schools/71 percent), 8 schools/53 percent of high schools (unchanged), and 16 schools/80 percent of charter/contract schools (up from 15 schools/79 percent) met schoolwide API targets.
