Louisa-Muscatine School District News

Louisa-Muscatine Safe Schools Index: Near the end of last year Louisa-Muscatine students, parents, and staff participated in the first ever Iowa Safe and Supportive Schools (IS3) Survey that measured conditions for learning, including everything from school safety to student relationships with peers and adults. We were one of 47 high schools in the state to participate. By participating we received an IS3 Index. This index is an indicator (reflection) of the health of our school’s optimal conditions for learning in the areas of safety, engagement and environment, and is divided into the following 4 bands: We received an index for each of the three areas and an overall index. We received an overall index of 22 (out of 36), safety index of 9 (of 9), engagement index of 7 (of 18), and Environment Index of 6 (of 9). The overall index of 22 made us eligible to receive funding from the grant. Details on this index and the IS3 grant will follow in the December/January newsletter.

STATEMENT REGARDING THE HOMELESS
The Board of Directors of the Louisa-Muscatine Community School District is responsible for locating and identifying homeless children and youth who are “identified” within the district. A “homeless child or youth of school age” is defined as one between the ages of 5 and 21 who lacks a fixed, regular and adequate night time residence and includes a child or youth living on the street, in a car, tent or abandoned building or some other form of shelter not designated as a permanent home; living in a community shelter facility; or living with non-nuclear family members or friends who may not have legal guardianship over the child or youth of school age. The district shall make available to the homeless child or youth all services and assistance including, but not limited to, compensatory education, special education, English as a second language, vocational courses or programs, programs for the gifted and talented, health services, and food and nutrition programs, on the same basis of those services and assistance provided to resident pupils.
