BELLOMO Director November 2, 2005 Ms. Heidi McWhorter Christopher A. Joseph & Associates 610 16th Street - Suite 514 Oakland, CA 94612 SUBJECT: Request for School Information for Initial Study Pointe Vista at San Pedro Naval Reserve Site San Pedro, CA Thank you for giving the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) the opportunity to provide information regarding educational facility service in the area of the proposed Pointe Vista at San Pedro Project. The proposed 61.5-acre development includes a 2,300-unit single-family attached (townhome and condominium) development including about 10,000 square-feet of retail use. The project will also contain a central park (with community clubhouse and pool); a waterscape concourse; a senior community park; and a publicly accessible park featuring four little league baseball diamonds. The project will also include an access road from Western Avenue to the Mary Star of the Sea High School (a non-LAUSD campus). Prior to the proposed development, the project requires the demolition of 245 residential units, a community center, and retail convenience facility constructed in 1962 by the U.S. Navy for the purpose of housing and accommodating personnel stationed at the Long Beach Naval Shipyard. The site (formerly known as "San Pedro Housing") closed in 1999. Based on the extent/location of the proposed development, it is our opinion that significant environmental impacts on the surrounding community (traffic, noise, air, pollution, etc.) will occur. Since significant impacts to LAUSD schools are anticipated, mitigation measures designed to help reduce or eliminate such impacts are included in this response. Schools currently serving this project include Taper Elementary School, Dodson Middle School, and Narbonne High School. Information regarding each school’s capacity and enrollments is attached. In addition, one additional school is planned in the area to relieve known overcrowding. This school is listed on the attached table of LAUSD Schools 333 South Beaudry Avenue, 20th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90017 • Telephone (213) 241-3199 • Fax (213) 241-6816 The Office of Environmental Health and Safety is dedicated to providing a safe and healthy environment for the 900,000 students and 80,000 employees of the Los Angeles Unified School District.

The District will provide School Pedestrian Route Maps upon your request. • Contractors must maintain ongoing communication with LAUSD school administrators, providing sufficient notice to forewarn children and parents when existing pedestrian and vehicle routes to school may be impacted. • Installation and maintenance of appropriate traffic controls (signs and signals) to ensure pedestrian and vehicular safety. • Haul routes will not pass by any school, except when school is not in session. • No staging or parking of construction-related vehicles, including worker-transport vehicles, will occur on or adjacent to a school property. • Funding for crossing guards (at contractor’s expense) is required when safety of children may be compromised by construction-related activities at impacted school crossings. • Barriers and/or fencing must be installed to secure construction equipment and to minimize trespassing, vandalism, short-cut attractions, and attractive nuisances. • Contractor’s are required to provide security patrols (at their expense) to minimize trespassing, vandalism, and short-cut attractions. 333 South Beaudry Avenue, 20th Floor, Los Angeles, CA 90017 • Telephone (213) 241-3199 • Fax (213) 241-6816 The Office of Environmental Health and Safety is dedicated to providing a safe and healthy environment for the 900,000 students and 80,000 employees of the Los Angeles Unified School District.

Lid, Legislative Assistant COUNCIL FILE NO. 10-1076: SURVEY FINDINGS FROM SCHOOL-PARKS SHARED USE STUDY The Department of Recreation and Parks (Depaliment) began its shared use relationship with Los Angeles Unified School District (LA US D) in 1967 with an agreement for the construction and operation of a pool at Venice High SchooL The pool was subsequently built by the City on LAUSD property. The Department cunently has 36 formal agreements with LAUSD through Joint Use Agreements (JUA) and License Agreements. An additional 199 school or park sites have a shared use relationship through a permit or an informal reciprocal agreement. Use fees have historically not been collected from or paid to LAUSD under these arrangements_ However, recent discussions with LAUSD have indicated that this may change in the future, as LA USD is considering a policy change that would impose use fees on the Department for use of non­ JUA related school sites. , Besides LAUSD schools, the Depmtment also has working relationships with private schools and independent · chmter schools not under LAUSD.

DESCRIPTORS *Academic Aspiration; College Bound Students; College Entrance Examinations; Course Selection (Students); *Educational Experience; *High School Graduates; High Schools; Questionnaires; *Student Attitudes; Student Employment; Student Surveys; Tables (Data); *Urban Education IDENTIFIERS *Los Angeles Unified School District CA ABSTRACT This report provides information on the educational experiences and plans of the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) (California) 1997 graduates. Seniors from regular, continuation, and opportunity high schools and schools of choice and for handicapped students were surveyed. In October 1996, there were 27,387 seniors in the LAUSD schools. Of these, 15,496 completed questionnaires for the survey. Approximately half of these students held part-time jobs while in high school. A large percentage took general academics (48%) and college preparatory courses (48%), and only 4% took vocational courses. Over 16% of these seniors had taken English-as-a-Second-Language courses. As of one month before graduation, 51% of the seniors had taken the Scholastic Assessment Tests and 20% had taken the ACT Assessment. About 36% of the seniors planned to attend 4-year colleges and 25% planned to attend 2- year colleges. Seniors noted their teachers and the quality of education as the best features of their schools, and they rated all areas of their instruction as close to "above average." While they considered their schools' reputations, spirit, and instructional programs as "average," they rated the condition of their school buildings and classrooms as slightly "below average." Appendixes contain tables of study data and the student survey.

  • School Associated Violent Deaths
    The National School Safety Center's Report on School Associated Violent Deaths Internet: www.schoolsafety.us E-mail: [email protected] In-House Report of the National School Safety Center 141 Duesenberg Drive, Suite 11 • Westlake Village, CA 91362 • Ph: 805/373-9977 • Fax: 805/373-9277 Dr. Ronald D. Stephens, Executive Director DEFINITION: A school-associated violent death is any homicide, suicide, or weapons-related violent death in the United States in which the fatal injury occurred: 1) on the property of a functioning public, private or parochial elementary or secondary school, Kindergarten through grade 12, (including alternative schools); 2) on the way to or from regular sessions at such a school; 3) while person was attending or was on the way to or from an official school-sponsored event; 4) as an obvious direct result of school incident/s, function/s or activities, whether on or off school bus/vehicle or school property. * Note: Not a scientific survey. Since information is taken from newspaper clipping services, it is possible that not all such clippings have reached the NSSC. SCOPE: Newspaper accounts, on which NSSC bases this report, frequently do not list names and ages of those who are charged with the deaths of others. Such omissions were in some cases because the person charged was a minor. In some instances, persons were killed in drive-by shootings, gang encounters or during melees in which the killer was not identified, and the killers were either never apprehended or were caught days or months after the crime was first reported.
