Orange H.S. one of 242 CDE "flagged" schools
Orange Unified’s Orange
High School is one of 242
state-wide schools that has had their STAR 2013 Testing results flagged because
at least one student from the school had a STAR related posting on a social
media sites.
Orange High and 225 other schools fall into the less sever category
of 2013 Identified Schools with
Images on Social Media (Not including test items). Sixteen schools, including Anaheim Union’s Magnolia High School
( the only Orange
County school) fall in the more sever 2013 Schools with
Social Media Postings of Legible Test Items list.
Last year 216 schools
were flagged because of social media postings. This year’s social media
breaches increase took place despite a serious attempt by the state to stop the
security breaches after last year.
If a social media posting security breach affects more than
5% of the students tested, the schools Academic Performance Index (API) results
could be invalidated. The California Department of Education will make a final
determination on security breaches and how each does or does not affect each
schools accountability reports when it releases.
