District Administration:
Dr. Sharon P. McGehee – District Superintendent
Leadership is not so much about technique and methods as it is about opening the heart. Leadership is about inspiration -- of oneself and of others.
Great leadership is about human experiences, not processes. Leadership is not a formula or a program, it is a human activity that comes from the heart
and considers the hearts of others. It is an attitude, not a routine.
Lance Secretan
Lance H.K. Secretan was born (1939) in Amersham, United Kingdom. Secretan is perhaps best known for his pioneering work in leadership theory and
how to inspire teams.
Dr. James P. Kidwell – Deputy Superintendent, Human Resources

THE STRATEGIC PLAN
Belief statements express our fundamental
convictions, our values, and our character. They
are the underlying foundation of the
entire Strategic Plan.
WE BELIEVE
• Each individual has equal intrinsic worth.
• Individuals are responsible for their actions.
• Diversity enriches our community.
• Democracy thrives through the active
participation of an informed citizenry.
• High achievement requires high expectations.
• Quality education for all is a shared
responsibility.
• All people are teachers and learners.
• Achieving common goals requires
cooperation, communication, and
commitment.
• The education of children demands a
commitment to their physical, social,
emotional, and intellectual development.
25. Page 25 of 223
The Mission Statement expresses the unique
purpose for which we exist and the specific function
we seek to perform. The Mission expresses our
loftiest aspirations as a district and defines the ideal
we seek to attain for all of our students over time.
The mission of the Ontario–Montclair School
District:
Whatever it takes, we guarantee our
commitment to the highest quality education
for all students.
The motto of the Ontario-Montclair School
District:
Learning Today – Leading Tomorrow
The guiding philosophy of the Ontario-
Montclair School District:
Continuous Improvement
It is through objectives that we express our
desired measurable end results. Objectives must
be high goals, which the organization strives to
achieve. Objectives should help us remember that
our task is not finished, our vision is not realized,
and our satisfaction is not appropriate as long as
one student fails to reach his or her success level.
Objectives
1. All students
will be
proficient or
advanced on
essential
California standards for language arts and
math as measured by district and State
assessments.

demonstrate no less than one level of growth
annually in English language proficiency as
measured by district and State assessments.
3. All students will be proficient or advanced
on/in California content standards in science

assessments.
Goals translate the purpose, values and vision into
broad initiatives that the organization will achieve.
From them flow objectives and strategies - - the
things that people do.
1. All students will be proficient or advanced on
essential California standards for Language
Arts and Math.
2. All English Learners will become proficient in
English Language as measured by district

Strategies are the means for achieving our
objectives. They tell us that to be successful in
achieving our Mission, we need to do these specific
things. Action teams comprised of staff members or
members of the community, who volunteer to serve,
develop the details for the implementation of each
strategy.

Student Achievement
Teaching is only one part of the educational process. In
order for educating to be successful, educators,
communities, families, and students must know if learning
has actually taken place.
Assessment and assessment feedback provide an
identification of what was learned. Assessment is a
reflective instruction process. It provides information
about the levels of understanding that students are
achieving.
Assessments may be formative, norm-reference,
criterion-reference, and performance-based; all of which
provide important information to students, families,
teachers, administration, and the community about
student achievement, program effectiveness, and
alignment of instruction to identified goals and
objectives. There is no one perfect assessment
approach. Multiple assessments are necessary; and,
when used together, assist in identifying and measuring
success and areas in need of further focus.
The Strategic Plan for the Ontario-Montclair School District
(OMSD) states that we will assess student performance and
achievement using multiple measures. The goal of our
multiple measure philosophy is to acquire as much
information as possible, using a variety of perspectives, and
to ensure that students make continuous progress in
reaching the expected standards in all curriculum areas.
32. Page 32 of 223
OMSD utilizes a variety of tools for assessment:
1. The Sacramento County Office of Education (SCOE)
Tests: This is the assessment used for the Reading
First Program, a Federal initiative aimed at improving
reading instruction in America. This is administered
to grades K-6 students at the completion of each
theme.
2. CELDT - All students who enroll in a California public
K – 12 school for the first time are given a Home
Language Survey. By state law and regulation, if the
Survey answers indicate a language other than
English in the home or in the child’s background, the
school must test the student for English language
proficiency. As part of initial school enrollment,
parents and guardians are required by law to provide
the answers to these questions. There is no
provision in current state law allowing students not to
be assessed through waiver. Special needs students
are also required to be screened for English
proficiency.
a. If the student demonstrates English language
proficiency on the test, his/her proficient status is
recorded in his/her permanent record. A student
identified as Fluent English Proficient enrolls in any
program of instruction for which he or she is
qualified. If a student demonstrates less than
proficient English skills, that status is recorded.
The school must offer appropriate instructional
assistance to develop English proficiency to each
of the English Learner students. The type of
assistance offered depends upon the level of
33. Page 33 of 223
English proficiency, beginning, intermediate
or advanced. Except for beginners, the
assistance is offered in the home school
through special instruction and, depending
upon student needs, classroom placement.
b. As of May 2001, all California school districts
are required to use the new required CEDLT
examination for the purpose of determining
who is English proficient or limited. The
CELDT is published by CTB/McGraw Hill.
No other test results can be substituted for
this single examination. The CELDT
examination has four sections: listening,
speaking, reading and writing.
c. Historical data on OMSD CELDT scores
show a trend of the majority of our students
moving into Intermediate and Early
Advanced. This data may be viewed at:
http://celdt.cde.ca.gov/reports.asp
d. Take a look at our latest data:
34. Page 34 of 223
3. The District Benchmark Tests: These are
customized trimester tests in English Language
Arts and Mathematics developed specifically for
OMSD. They are administered to grades K-8
students.
4. The Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR)
Program: The STAR Program was first authorized
in 1997 and reauthorized in 2004 by state law
(Education Code Section 60640) to measure how
well students are learning the knowledge and skills
identified in the California content standards. This
is administered to grades 2 to 8 students near the
end of the school year. Students are tested in
English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and
History. The results of the STAR testing are called
the API or Academic performance Index.
a. Testing result data may be found at:
http://star.cde.ca.gov/
b. Take a look at our latest data…
35. Page 35 of 223
Remember that API is different than AYP. AYP refers to the
growth needed in the proportion of students who achieve state
standards of academic proficiency. Schools that receive federal Title
I funds to improve learning among disadvantaged children and fail to
make AYP for two years in a row are considered in need of
improvement and face a range of consequences. Those
consequences include offering parental choice of schools and
transportation to better-performing schools, providing supplemental
help to disadvantaged children and implementing various corrective
actions.

Academic Performance Index – Annual Yearly
Progress
API – AYP
State – Federal
API
An API is an index (or score) ranging from 200 to 1000 that
summarizes a school's or district’s performance based on
student results on statewide assessments as previously
discussed.
AYP
The federal No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 requires all
states, school districts and schools to demonstrate
Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP). The goal is to ensure that
all students in all schools are at or above the proficiency
level in reading/language arts and mathematics by the
2013-14 school year.
Under AYP criteria adopted by the State Board of
Education, all California school districts, schools, and
numerically significant student subgroups within districts
and schools must meet the following objectives:
Growth in percentage of students meeting or
exceeding state standards in English/language arts
and mathematics.
Student testing participation rate of at least 95%.
Growth on the Academic Performance Index (API).
Growth on the high school graduation rate.
All schools and districts in the state will receive annual AYP
determinations. Additionally, the state must establish annual
measurable objectives to measure the progress of their
districts, schools, and student subgroups.
Individual school
site test scores can
be viewed in their
respective sections
of this book.

Understanding School District Financial
Statements
School District financial statements are maintained in
separate funds with a standard account code structure used
across the United States. These are the main components
(on the state forms, each category is referenced by these
corresponding letters):
A. Revenues
B. Expenditures
C. Excess/Deficiency of Revenues over Expenditures
D. Other Financing Sources and Uses
E. Net increase or decrease to fund balance
F. Fund Balance
When evaluating the financial health of a district or an ability
to afford a new program, it is important to pay attention to
section E, the net increase or decrease to fund balance. If
this category is negative for more than one consecutive year
for unknown reasons and for on-going expenditures, there is
potential fiscal insolvency.
The Facts behind SACS
SACS stands for Standardized Account Code Structure and
was a response to statutes passed in 1993 and 1995 calling
for the development of a model of accounting and budget
structure. This new structure was implemented in 2001 and
was developed to accomplish several fundamental
objectives:
Better information for the public.
Comparability across all school districts within the State
and the greater area of the United States.
Automate financial statement preparation and other
reports such as the report of indirect cost and the report
of transportation costs.
Compliance with Federal guidelines and reporting
requirements, thus increasing California’s opportunities
for additional Federal funding.
The creation of a logical framework that can be used to
determine where education funds come from and how
they are used.
Our kids are in school and I am trying
to figure out how they spend their
money. What do all of those numbers
mean? Who’s spending what and
how are they spending it?

Budget Development Process
The budget development process from a compliance
perspective within applicable laws and regulations is
governed by two major pieces of legislation:
AB 1200 Statutes 1991
Assembly Bill 1200 was signed on October 14,
1991, by Governor Pete Wilson. The
legislation, which became effective January 1,
1992, contains a very comprehensive fiscal
accountability process for California school
districts that govern school district fiscal
practices. The legislation imposed major fiscal
accountability controls on each school district
and county office of education regarding
agency budgets and fiscal practices. See
especially Education Code sections 1240 et
seq. and 42131 et seq.
Here is a list of examples of the expanded
reporting requirements that became
requirements as a part of AB 1200
Budget adoption prior to July 1st
of each
fiscal year
• This document must be Board
approved and submitted to the
County Office of Education
• The County Office of Education
has fiscal oversight responsibility
and can approve, qualify, or
disapprove a districts’ budget
Interim Reporting
• First Interim is as of October 31st
of a fiscal year and is approved
by the Board before December
15th
of the same fiscal year
• Second Interim is as of January
31st
of a fiscal year and is
approved by the Board before
March 15th
of the same fiscal
year
Cash flow reporting accompanying the
Interim Reports
Unaudited actuals also must receive
Board approval in the first part of
September following the end of the
fiscal year
Collective bargaining public disclosure
process, which entails a public hearing
on the fiscal impact of a proposed
bargaining unit agreement
46. Page 45 of 223
Multi-year projections reflecting fiscal
solvency for the current and two
subsequent fiscal years
AB 2756
A presentation of AB 2756 can be found at:
http://wwwstatic.kern.org/gems/fcmat/AB27
560booklet.pdf
• Assembly Bill 2756 (Chapter 52 of Ed.
Code, 2004) was an urgency measure
signed into law by Governor Arnold
Schwarzenegger on June 21, 2004. As
an urgency measure, AB 2756 became
effective immediately and was an
expansion of the existing AB 1200
requirements. Some specific changes
include:
• The requirement that the
CBO/Business Official and the
Superintendent personally sign that the
district is able to afford a collectively
bargained agreement for the current
and two subsequent fiscal years
• Expanded the Standard and Criteria
component of the fiscal reporting piece
• Provided an additional approval that the
County Office of Education could use
when evaluating a districts’ budget –
“Conditionally Approved”
• Codified the requirement that any
reports regarding the districts fiscal
solvency be forwarded to the County
Office i.e. actuarial reports, special
reports sought by School Services,
Fiscal Crisis Management Assistance
Team, auditors, and or any other
consultant
• Increased the number of days from 6 to
10 that the district needed to submit
disclosure documents to the County
Office for review before the local school
board could take action on the proposal
As a part of the passage of AB 2756, the Fiscal Crisis
Management Assistance Team, (FCMAT), presented the
FCMAT Predictors of School Agencies Needing
Intervention.
47. Page 46 of 223
The following 11 conditions represent those school agency
problems most commonly encountered by FCMAT. The
presence of any one condition is not necessarily an
indication of a school agency in trouble. Unavoidable short-
term situations such as key administrative vacancies can
result in brief and acceptable periods of exposure to one or
more of the following conditions. Exceeding acceptable
limits of exposure in one or more of the following conditions
is often the blueprint for districts nearing or presently in a
crisis situation.
1. Leadership Breakdown*
a. Governance crisis**
b. Ineffective staff recruitment
c. Board micromanagement and special interest groups
influencing boards
d. Ineffective or no supervision
e. Litigation against district
2. Ineffective Communication*

e. No long-range plan for facility maintenance
4. Inadequate Budget Development*
a. Failure to recognize year-to-year trends**
b. Flawed ADA projections**
c. Failure to maintain reserves**
d. Salary and benefits in unrealistic proportions
e. Insufficient consideration of long-term bargaining
agreement effects**
f. Flawed multi-year projections**
g. Inaccurate revenue and expenditure estimations**
5. Limited Budget Monitoring*
a. Failure to reconcile ledgers
b. Poor cash flow analysis and reconciliation**
c. Inadequate business systems and controls
d. Inattention to COE data
e. Failure to review management control reports
f. Bargaining agreements beyond state COLA**
g. Lawsuit settlements
6. Poor Position Control*
a. Identification of each position missing
b. Unauthorized hiring
c. Budget development process affected
d. No integration of position control with payroll**
7. Ineffective Management Information Systems*
a. Limited access to timely personnel, payroll, and
budget control data and reports**
b. Inadequate attention to system life cycles
48. Page 47 of 223
c. Inadequate communication systems
8. Inattention to Categorical Programs*
a. Escalating General Fund encroachment**
b. Lack of regular monitoring**
c. Illegal expenditures
d. Failure to file claims
9. Substantial Long-Term Debt Commitments
a. Increased costs of employee health benefits
b. Certificates of participation
c. Retiree health benefits for employees and spouse

Budget Development at OMSD
Let us traverse this path together…
The budget is simply our educational plan expressed in
dollars. The goal is that today’s dollars are spent on
today’s students and needs.
Fiscal health is vital to the sustainability of successful
academic achievement, strong community
relationships, and safe working and learning
environments.
The ability for everyone to see, be a part of, and provide
input into our operations builds trust. This is called
transparency – meaning everything is “seeable”,
nothing is hidden or secret. This is essential to quality
trusting relationships.
The budget is a living breathing document that is
constantly reviewed and amended to accommodate
legislative changes as well as the changing needs
of our dynamic student population.
The budget development process at Ontario-
Montclair School District begins with reflection on
the district’s Strategic Plan, vision, and goals
regarding student achievement and growth,
maintaining fiscal health, as well as ensuring a high
quality and safe environment for students and staff.
The next major step is a comprehensive review of
all of the individual components of the larger picture
of the financial health of the district. These
components include total compensation costs
(salaries and benefits combined), staffing
requirements based upon projected enrollment,
needs assessment, and finally, evaluation and
review of the Governor’s proposed budget as
presented in January and May of each year.
The budgeting for each site’s allocation is a
cooperative effort managed and implemented by
the site principal in coordination with their
administrative and teaching staffs.
50. Page 49 of 223
Budget Assumptions
It is important to note that the information and
assumptions that we gleam from the Governor’s
propose budget, as presented in the May Revise, are
merely estimates and aren’t known factors until
the Budget Act is signed later in the fiscal year.
Please note that the largest source of revenue for
school districts comes from student attendance referred
to as ADA – Average Daily Attendance. OMSD is
declining dramatically in enrollment. Changes must be
made to ensure fiscal solvency. Be a part of the plan
and forward any and all ideas about ways we can save
money to Assistant Superintendent of Business
Service, Danielle A. Calise.
The Balancing Act
Needs – Priorities – Dollars
51. Page 50 of 223
Specific assumptions used in the development of the budget
for the Ontario-Montclair School District are as follows:
2007 – 2008
Closure of Bernt Elementary School
Continued declining enrollment
o 2007-08 decline 1,000
o 2008-09 decline 750
o 2009-10 decline 750
Revenues estimated based on
enrollment estimate of 23,117
(decline of 1,000 pupils). [note:
revenue limit funded on greater
of current or prior year ADA with some minor
adjustments as indicated by the State formula]
Staffing estimated based on original enrollment estimate
of 23,427 (decline of 750 pupils)
Site allocations based on 919 regular ed teachers and
116 special ed teachers for a total of 1,035 teacher FTE
Because the decline in enrollment often times causes
class size issues, an additional 10 certificated FTE were
budgeted in an effort to maintain reasonable class sizes
[KNOWN ONE TIME EXPENSE – ESTIMATED AT
APPROXIMATELY $830,000]
Variance between revenue estimates and staffing results
in conservative budget perspective and has a negative
effect on fund balance
Step and column growth and for both certificated and
classified collective bargaining unit staff has been
included
Implementation of the compensation and classification
study as negotiated for the classified bargaining Unit and
selected management and confidential employees
Continuation of the .75% one time negotiated
benefit/salary enhancement provided to all employees in
2006/07 (for a second year) [KNOWN ONE TIME
EXPENSE]
52. Page 51 of 223
COLA on Revenue Limit Other State Revenues 4.53%
o OMSD Actual 07-08 COLA 4.524% - $241
o 2008-09 3.7%
o 2009-10 2.6%
Continued bifurcated COLA on Special Education
revenues
o State portion of funding will receive the 4.53%
COLA but the Federal funds will not
o This results in less than COLA growth on total
funding thereby worsening the encroachment
All formula driven allocations were budgeted
One-half of the total outstanding accumulated vacation
liability was budgeted for 2007-08 $862,000, with an
additional 25% budgeted in each of the two subsequent
years on the multi-year
projections [KNOWN
ONE TIME EXPENSE]
Elimination/Reduction of the following positions:
o Administrative Assistant to the Director of
Fiscal Services
o Construction Accountant
o Environmental Specialist
o Reduced Assistant Principal positions
o Reduced Custodial positions
o Reduced Certificated Teaching positions
Statutory Benefits:
o Worker’s Comp rate was budgeted at 2.42%
o Unemployment rate was budgeted at 0.05%
o PERS at 9.124%
o PERS Reduction at 3.2726% with a buyout
factor of 16%
o FICA at 6.2 0%
o MEDICARE at 1.45%
ADA is paid based on greater of current or prior year P2
regular and special ed ADA + current year Non Public
School ADA
o Our Funded ADA in 2007/08
23,029.90 District ADA
53. Page 52 of 223
88.15 County ADA
Total County ADA Transfer equals $469,684
o County Special Ed ADA is budgeted at 86.59
Funded at $5,324.09
o County Community School ADA is budgeted
at 1.56
Funded at the district revenue limit
amount of $5,558.50
Evaluation of all encroachment
programs (for example, Special
Education, Class Size Reduction, and
Transportation)
All Federal, State, and Local
categorical programs are
budgeted with expenditures
equaling revenues (excluding
encroachment programs such as Special Education,
Class Size Reduction, and Transportation)
o New year awards have been estimated
conservatively and budgeted less then
anticipated due to declining enrollment and the
continued cuts at the State level
o Carryovers have not been budgeted
Second year of a three year technology implementation
of Zangle, the student attendance accounting system
[KNOWN ONE TIME EXPENSE – ESTIMATED AT
$1,000,000]
Extended Learning hours budgeted as follows:
o (Deficits are the amount of earnings the
State will likely not fund due to insufficient
appropriations)
o All supplemental hours at a rate of $4.08
Core at capped hours of 145,062
no deficit
STA R testing at 65,000

o With the acceptance of the QEIA grant, at
those sites where the grant was awarded, the
CSR program will be expanded as
appropriate.
Lottery was budgeted using an estimated Annual ADA of
21,908 (based on a current attendance rate of 99.8% of
P2)
o Unrestricted Lottery -$118 per ADA
o Restricted Lottery -$19 per ADA

The Encroachment Concept
Is it accounting malarkey, a real problem, or inefficient
systems?
The term encroachment is used to describe any program
that is not self sufficient, meaning that the revenues aren’t
enough to cover the costs necessitated by the program.
The most common areas where school districts experience
this phenomenon are special education, transportation, and
class size reduction.
What is Special Education
The Special Education program is designed
to meet the needs of individuals from birth
to age 22 who have learning disabilities,
developmental disabilities and other
physical and mental impairments. Schools are mandated by
federal law, the Individuals with Dis abilities Education Act,
originally passed in 1975, to serve the needs of these
special needs students in the least-restrictive
environment as identified in individualized
education plans (IEPs). In
this context, "least
restrictive" means a setting
that is closest to a normal
classroom with non-disabled
children as allowed by whatever accommodations are
needed.
Under federal law, the instruction must be both free and
appropriate, delivered in a manner that permits the child to
benefit from the services. Special Education covers services
that are related to education, including home-to-school
transportation, speech pathology, audiology, psychological
services, physical and occupational
therapy and counseling.
Although both the State and Federal
governmental agencies provide some funding,
the funding in recent years has been
62. Page 61 of 223
significantly less than the cost of the required services in the
Special Education Program. This shortfall is most commonly
referred to as encroachment to the Unrestricted General
Fund Resources. These costs generally cannot be totally
eliminated, although the District makes every effort to
effectively and efficiently manage and control costs.
The District must provide programs whether it has the
program currently operating within the district or not. In
instances where out-of-state residential placement is
required for a student, the total costs, including
transportation and required visitation costs for the parents,
can far exceed the funding provided by the State.
Due process and strict adherence to Federal and State
guidelines means we provide more protection for our
neediest families and thus creates a need for more
specialized guidance and assistance. Sadly, this means
many of our Special Education dollars are going to
attorneys’ fees. It is unfortunate that the high demand and
high cost comes at a time of declining enrollment, which
together exacerbate the constrained fiscal resources
available for the Ontario-Montclair School District.
What is a SELPA?
In 1977, all school districts were required
to form a consortium or geographical
region of sufficient size and scope to
provide for all the special education
service needs of the children residing within the region
boundaries and develop a local plan.
The Special Education Local Plan Area (SELPA) is a
consortium of participating school districts formed for the
purpose of ensuring that quality special education programs
and services are available throughout the region to meet the
individual needs of special education students.
The SELPA is governed by a Board of Directors, which is
made up of the superintendents of each participating school
district and is chaired by the San Bernardino County
Superintendent of Schools.
The SELPA is a support service office. The goal of SELPAs
is to coordinate services to member districts so that
63. Page 62 of 223
students with disabilities have equal educational opportunity
in the most effective, efficient, and cost effective manner
practical.
There are 123 SELPAs operating in the State of California.
Six SELPAs operate within San Bernardino County, with a
total population of 45,664 special needs children: Population data

the education of all students with disabilities.
Class Size Reduction Program
The Class Size Reduction program was established in 1996
with the intention of improving education, especially in
reading and mathematics, of children in kindergarten and
grades one through three. The program was enacted
through Education Code Sections 52120-
52128.5.
The
Class
Size
Reduction Program is said to be an excellent educational
model for students, it is also much more expensive on a per
student basis than the old 32 to 1 model that had previously
existed in California schools for a number of years. None of
these cost comparisons take into account the cost of
altering facilities and creating new facilities for the new
classes that were created by the program. While it was
hoped that the funding for the CSR program would be
sufficient to cover the entire cost of operation it simply isn’t.
While the under funded or encroachment amount is $2.5
million for the program and an additional $.5 million for
facilities, this isn’t the true savings that would be realized if
the program were to be eliminated as we would still be
educating the students, the only difference would be the
number of teachers and classrooms that would be required.
Transportation
Transporting students other than special education students
is not a requirement of school districts in the State of
California.
Education Code - 39800 governs the decision to provide
transportation to students.
Part 23.5. Transportation. Chapter 1. Transportation
Services. Article 1. General Provisions
(a) The governing board of any school district may provide
for the transportation of pupils to and from school whenever
in the judgment of the board the transportation is advisable
and good reasons exist therefore. The governing board may
purchase or rent and provide for the upkeep, care, and
operation of vehicles, or may contract and pay for the
transportation of pupils to and from school by common

# OF BUSES NUMBER OF STUDENTS RIDING
Some Transportation Highlights… The number of riders

transportation due to current boundaries.
carrier or municipally owned transit system, or may contract
with and pay responsible private parties for the
transportation. These contracts may be made with the
parent or guardian of the pupil being transported. A
governing board may allow the transportation of preschool
or nursery school pupils in school buses owned or operated
by the district. A state reimbursement may not be received
by a district for the transportation of preschool or nursery
school pupils.
(b) As used in this article, "municipally owned transit
system" means a transit system owned by a city, or by a
district created under Part 1 (commencing with Section
24501) of Division 10 of the Public Utilities Code.
(Added by Stats. 1999, Ch. 646, Sec. 14.)
The Ontario-Montclair School District runs an efficient
transportation system that focuses on maximizing safety
and student attendance while minimizing cost. Our program
is run in compliance with all legal requirements and
consistent with Board Policy 3541 and Administrative
Regulation 3541.1.
Walk distances per - Board
Policy 3541 Business and
Noninstructional Operations
At the option of the Board, home to school transportation
may be provided to students.
The generally recognized distance for transporting students
is:
Grade level
K-3 more than 1 mile
Elementary - Remaining grades more than 1 1/2 miles
Middle schools more than 2 1/2 miles
Minimum distances from schools within which transportation
will not be provided shall be measured by the shortest
usable and reasonable route from the residence of the
student to the nearest point on the boundary of the school
campus.

2005-06 Transportation Data from the Unaudited Actual Financial Report
Board Approved in September 2006
The cost of providing transportation increases for a variety
of reasons including, but not limited to: rising cost of
petroleum products, i.e. fuel and oil, parts, repairs, and staff.
The costs for providing specialized transportation for our
students with special needs is once again an area where
staff has little control over the costs associated with this
service, as it is driven predominately by the needs of that
particular population. The costs are simply rising faster that
the revenue is growing, thus creating a pull on already
strained resources.
Currently there is no cost or
fee to any of our bus riders.
67. Page 66 of 223
A .1% increase in average daily attendance is
approximately $126,000 of ongoing money. A 1%
improvement in the attendance rate would result
in an increase in on-going funding by
approximately $1.2 million for every future year.

ADA – Average Daily
Attendance
ADA is equal to the average number of pupils
actually attending classes over a span of time. For
the majority of our Unrestricted Funding Resource,
the benchmark in time is called P2 or Period 2
reporting. This time period is the last complete
school month ending prior to April 15 of a school
year.
History of ADA data….
Not only do students who don’t attend school every
day suffer the lost instructional time, the district
loses the resources it needs to continue to provide
those instructional and operational services our
students deserve.
As you can see in our Ratio of ADA to CBEDS
Enrollment chart, we have experienced some
slight variances in our attendance rate. (CBEDS is
explained in the coming pages)
Each day of lost instruction costs the
district approximately $44.80. Each day
costs the student valuable instruction time.

lost instructional time has a
direct impact on our students’

Enrollment
Enrollment is the number of students actually
enrolled in a school/program on a particular day
regardless if the student was in attendance or not.
CBEDS – California Basic Education Data
System
CBEDS is the statewide system of collecting
enrollment and staffing data from all school districts
on an “Information Day” each October. The 2006-
07 year will be the first year of transition to a
statewide system of collecting student data called
California School Information Services (CSIS).
This is an attempt to standardized the collection of
student information so that this data may be
compared at the State level for testing evaluation
and that the transfer of this data from site to site or
district to district would be easier and students
would be placed in their most appropriate courses
upon arrival in a new school environment.

Interdistrict Transfer Requests
If a resident of the Ontario-Montclair School District
wishes for their child to attend a school outside of
district boundaries, the parent/guardian must submit an
interdistrict transfer form to the Child Welfare and
Attendance office. Transfers are processed, approved
or disapproved regularly and forwarded to the
requested district. Final approval is made by the
requested district.
If a student wishes to attend an Ontario-Montclair
School and the parent/guardian does not live in district
boundaries, the parent/guardian must obtain an
interdistrict transfer from their current school district of
residence. The interdistrict transfer is required for
anyone living outside of the district who wishes to
attend.
Interdistrict transfers out of the district affect our
enrollment and therefore our revenues. For a variety of
reasons parents may request a transfer in or out of the
Ontario- Montclair School District. Administrative
Regulation 5117.1 Students-Interdistrict Attendance
Agreements and Education Codes 48204 and 46601.5
provide the legal guidance on transfer criteria.

Discussion on
enrollment projections
This first step at estimating our ADA is evaluating
how many students we think will enroll in our
district. This process is time consuming,
uses a lot of assumptions, and is rarely
more than an educated guess
In order to determine projected enrollment
a district must look at a variety of factors. These
factors include:
The enrollment in surrounding districts and/or
surrounding area/neighborhood
Enrollment trends throughout the State
Population increases and decreases due to
growth and migration into and out of the State
and local areas
Economic stability of the State and local
areas
Cost of housing in the local area.
About 53.45% of school districts in the State
of California are facing declining enrollment
Population growth for the State of California
is projected to increase 15.3% between 2000
and 2010. This is 25.4 % between 1980 and
1990.
While there is no one right place to look for an
answer, trend data is the most useful information
that we have. Here are some more pieces that we
look at in an attempt to have accurate projections.
