"Camino Nuevo High School: Committed To Academics And Community." (''Los Feliz Ledger'' ), October 2006. Last accessed January 12, 2007.〕 In 2003 Camino Nuevo Charter Academy was awarded the Rudy Bruner Award for Urban Excellence gold medal. Camino Nuevo Charter Academy operates two middle and two elementary schools in the same neighborhood. Students have a longer school day and year than students at traditional LAUSD schools, and smaller class sizes. Camino Nuevo schools are very involved with parents and the community at large; the school even operates a health clinic for family members. Camino Nuevo High School (CNHS) received a 751 on its API score,〔(2005-06 Accountability Progress Reporting (APR) )〕 significantly higher than any other high school in its neighborhood.〔(Local Educational Agency (LEA) List of Schools )〕 The school was awarded a 10 out of 10 from the state of California for its similar schools ranking.〔(Similar Schools Report: 2005 Academic Performance Index (API) Base Report )〕 80 percent of sophomores passed the CAHSEE on their first attempt,〔(California High School Exit Examination: Camino Nuevo High School )〕 compared to only 67 percent of Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) students.〔(California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) Results: Los Angeles Unified School District )〕 Camino Nuevo's official mission statement is "to educate students in a college preparatory program to be literate, critical thinkers, and independent problem solvers who are agents of social justice with sensitivity toward the world around them." ==Student body== Over ninety percent of students at CNHS qualify for free or reduced lunch, and nine percent are considered English learners. Although Camino Nuevo has a high graduation rate and a large percentage of students who get admitted into college, most of them are placed in remedial classes and are unprepared for college.〔(2006 API School Demographic Characteristics )〕 As of the 2010-2011 school year, Camino Nuevo enrolls 930 students.〔(Los Angeles Times California Schools Guide )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Camino Nuevo Charter Academy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
