A DASS school’s performance is measured according to the same Dashboard standards as any other non-DASS school, containing the same six State indicators (*) Only 10 percent of schools in California are qualified as a DASS school, and every three years those schools have to reapply to retain this status. Specific metrics for academic achievement and graduation rate reflect the different needs of the students.

A high-risk student population needs extra help to succeed academically. Pacific View Charter School has been successfully offering personalized education for more than twenty years and is exceptionally skilled and experienced to support these students.
Throughout the years, we have learned to identify effective tools to guide students to get back on track. Each student that needs help is the focal point of a multidisciplinary support team, that includes the student’s personal network. Factors that generally impact/affect a student’s motivation are frequently related to a school environment, community, family, and the student self. Therefore the approach we take at PVCS is to look objectively at each student from a multidisciplinary/holistic perspective.

(*) The six State indicators all schools are measured on:
Academic Indicator (ELA and Mathematics)
Chronic Absenteeism Indicator
College/Career Indicator
English Learner Progress Indicator
Graduation Rate Indicator
Suspension Rate Indicator

California Common Core Standards
Spanish Translations of the CCSS are available on the Common Core en Español Web Site

Common Core State Standards
Educational standards describe what students should know and be able to do in each subject in each grade. In California, the State Board of Education decides on the standards for all students, from kindergarten through high school.
Since 2010, a number of states across the nation have adopted the same standards for English and math. These standards are called the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). Having the same standards helps all students get a good education, even if they change schools or move to a different state. Teachers, parents, and education experts designed the standards to prepare students for success in college and the workplace.
The California Department of Education helps schools make sure that all students are meeting the standards. Below you will find information about the standards and the CCSS-related activities taking place in California.
