The revelation, sparked by errors in state data identified by California Watch, means the state has been using an incorrect baseline as it measures progress at its lowest-performing schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Misassignments, as they’re known, have decreased dramatically since the state agreed to give the problem greater attention at low-performing schools. Unlike higher-performing schools, which are monitored every four years, the lowest-performing schools are monitored annually.\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>The action was one of many stemming from the settlement of \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/400494-williams-v-california-first-amended-complaint.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Williams v. California\u003c/a>, a landmark class-action lawsuit that sought to ensure all students were taught by qualified, credentialed teachers.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The 2005-06 school year was the first year of\u003cstrong> \u003c/strong>this increased scrutiny, and the misassignment rate “seemed incredible and insanely high,” said Brooks Allen, director of education advocacy at the ACLU of Southern California and the attorney overseeing the Williams settlement’s implementation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The following year, the state reported that the same low-performing schools had pushed misassignments down to 12 percent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The fact that it dropped off that quickly, that far … it seemed really dramatic,” Allen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although the initial scope of the problem is half as large as reported, it still “indicates there was a gigantic problem, and that there was substantial progress made once attention was paid to it,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Commission on Teacher Credentialing, which collects and reports misassignment data from counties, will present the \u003ca href=\"http://www.ctc.ca.gov/commission/agendas/2012-09/2012-09-5B.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">latest figures\u003c/a>\u003ca href=\"http://www.ctc.ca.gov/commission/agendas/2012-09/2012-09-5B.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> [PDF]\u003c/a> at its monthly meeting today. It will also explain the erroneous data from 2005-06, said Erin Sullivan, an assistant consultant in the commission’s office of governmental relations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Watch alerted the commission in July to thousands of duplicate records in six years of misassignment data it received through a public records request. The commission responded last month that all records in 2005-06 were duplicated; it could not determine how the error occurred and was unable to reproduce it. Sullivan said that while there were some duplicate records in subsequent years, those duplicates were intentional because of how data was reported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission has made changes to its online reporting system “that we expect will seriously mediate if not block the possibility of duplicate reporting by counties and provide us with additional tools for identifying potential duplicate reporting on a more detailed level,” Sullivan said in an email. In an interview, she said a warning message will pop up if a county enters duplicate data and will ask if the entry was intentional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission provided California Watch with revised data last week, and Sullivan said it would correct previously published reports as well. While the figures show an overall decline in misassignments, they also highlight the problem’s persistence. In 2010-11, the most recent year of data available, 13 percent of certificated staff – more than 12,000 in all, most of whom were teachers – at the lowest-performing schools did not have the appropriate credentials for their assignments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teachers without the credentials to teach core academic subject areas – English, math, science and social science – composed 20 percent of misassignments in 2010-11. About 13 percent of teachers serving English language learners were not authorized to do so. Seventeen percent of misassignments were for nonteaching program coordinators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The overall misassignment rates in prior years, based on a different cohort of low-performing schools, were even higher: 18 percent in 2007-08, 14 percent in 2008-09 and 19 percent in 2009-10.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Why is it that there seems to be this persistent and stubborn … floor at 12, 13, 14 percent that we don’t seem to be able to break through?” Allen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s an issue the Legislature and the commission should address, said John Affeldt, who served as lead counsel on the Williams lawsuit and is a managing attorney at Public Advocates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We should be thinking about ways to really get that number down,” he said. “If not 0, 1 or 2 or 3 percent should be exception, not the rule.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Affeldt said the misassignment rate was “especially frustrating” in light of the thousands of teachers, many of whom were fully credentialed for their assignments, laid off from California schools in recent years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think it’s an issue of just saying times are tough, fiscal budgets are tight, because we’ve actually created an opportunity where there’s a bigger supply that maybe didn’t exist before,” he said. “It seems we should have made more of a dent in the number.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

It will also explain the erroneous data from 2005-06, said Erin Sullivan, an assistant consultant in the commission’s office of governmental relations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California Watch alerted the commission in July to thousands of duplicate records in six years of misassignment data it received through a public records request. The commission responded last month that all records in 2005-06 were duplicated; it could not determine how the error occurred and was unable to reproduce it. Sullivan said that while there were some duplicate records in subsequent years, those duplicates were intentional because of how data was reported.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission has made changes to its online reporting system “that we expect will seriously mediate if not block the possibility of duplicate reporting by counties and provide us with additional tools for identifying potential duplicate reporting on a more detailed level,” Sullivan said in an email. In an interview, she said a warning message will pop up if a county enters duplicate data and will ask if the entry was intentional.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The commission provided California Watch with revised data last week, and Sullivan said it would correct previously published reports as well. While the figures show an overall decline in misassignments, they also highlight the problem’s persistence. In 2010-11, the most recent year of data available, 13 percent of certificated staff – more than 12,000 in all, most of whom were teachers – at the lowest-performing schools did not have the appropriate credentials for their assignments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Teachers without the credentials to teach core academic subject areas – English, math, science and social science – composed 20 percent of misassignments in 2010-11. About 13 percent of teachers serving English language learners were not authorized to do so. Seventeen percent of misassignments were for nonteaching program coordinators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The overall misassignment rates in prior years, based on a different cohort of low-performing schools, were even higher: 18 percent in 2007-08, 14 percent in 2008-09 and 19 percent in 2009-10.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Why is it that there seems to be this persistent and stubborn … floor at 12, 13, 14 percent that we don’t seem to be able to break through?” Allen said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s an issue the Legislature and the commission should address, said John Affeldt, who served as lead counsel on the Williams lawsuit and is a managing attorney at Public Advocates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We should be thinking about ways to really get that number down,” he said. “If not 0, 1 or 2 or 3 percent should be exception, not the rule.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Affeldt said the misassignment rate was “especially frustrating” in light of the thousands of teachers, many of whom were fully credentialed for their assignments, laid off from California schools in recent years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t think it’s an issue of just saying times are tough, fiscal budgets are tight, because we’ve actually created an opportunity where there’s a bigger supply that maybe didn’t exist before,” he said. “It seems we should have made more of a dent in the number.”\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Overall employment for speech-language pathologists fell 8.4 percent in the five-year period to 4,646.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Only school counselors saw an increase in both the number of credentials issued and employment.

The act provides funding for the state's lowest-performing schools to improve student achievement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, the commission said, California's student-to-counselor ratio remains among the worst in the nation: 49th in 2009-10, according to U.S. Department of Education data, with 810 students for every counselor.

(Carrie Ching/California Watch)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Frank Quan is 85 years old, and he has lived nearly his entire life in one place – a tiny wooden shack perched on the shore of San Pablo Bay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But by next summer, Quan could be forced to move: His house is in a state park slated for closure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an unusual arrangement with the state, Quan is the sole resident of \u003ca href=\"http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=466\">China Camp State Park\u003c/a>, one of 70 parks the state \u003ca href=\"http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=26685\">plans to close\u003c/a> amid a $22 million budget cut. He is the third generation in his family to live here, the last remaining relic of Chinese shrimp-fishing villages that once dotted California’s bay shores.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unless state officials find a way to save it, China Camp could be gone, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“History is there on paper,” said Quan, who has heavy eyes, a shuffle in his walk and gravel in his voice. “But this is the last camp of 26 where there was enough left to save. If they close it down, it’d be destroyed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quan and park supporters worry China Camp, if shuttered, would fall victim to vandalism, trespassing and other illegal activity. The state estimates it will cost $150,000 annually to protect and preserve China Camp while closed.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although little remains from China Camp’s heyday in the late 19th century, what’s left is largely unchanged: The handful of postage-stamp houses have been standing as long as Quan has, and the café, now serving tourists, looks just as it did when Quan’s mother and aunt ran it. A visitors center holds artifacts of an old trade, brought here more than 140 years ago by fishermen from China’s Pearl River Delta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly 500 people lived in China Camp in the 1880s. For a brief time, after the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire, its population swelled to as many as 10,000 as Chinatown residents fled north for refuge. But after a series of discriminatory and restrictive laws, China Camp, and the shrimp fisheries like it, emptied out. Quan’s family stayed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quan’s grandfather came to San Francisco from China’s Guangdong Province in the late 1880s. He ran a general store on Dupont Street, now Grant Avenue, before moving it to China Camp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They ran him out of town,” Quan said of his grandfather, Quan Hung Quock. Facing persecution in San Francisco, thousands of Chinese immigrants settled in Marin County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In China Camp, men who had been fishermen in their homeland built the same sampans – long wooden fishing boats – and single-mast shrimp junks they sailed in China. Each year, they caught 3 million pounds of shrimp, much of it spread wide over the camp’s hillsides and dried for export.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the 1890s, Chinese fishing villages were booming, much to the chagrin of other ethnic fishermen. The state soon passed regulations to cripple their success – first by closing the height of the shrimping season, then by banning exports of dried shrimp. A 1911 prohibition on bag nets proved crushing: With no other means to catch shrimp, the fishermen left, and the fisheries all but vanished.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quan Brothers, named for Quan Hung Quock’s two sons, was the only Chinese shrimping outfit left in China Camp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shrimping ceased until 1914, when Frank Spenger, whose eponymous seafood restaurant remains a Bay Area fixture, designed a new net: the trawl. The cone-shaped net allowed Quan Brothers to breathe life back into the fishery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family processed 5,000 pounds of shrimp a day, cooking the crustaceans 500 pounds at a time. They sold fresh shrimp wholesale around town, with surplus sold for 10 cents a pound in San Francisco. They dried shrimp for customers in China and Hawaii.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China Camp became a popular destination for locals in the know.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you saw anybody on a Sunday, you were lucky,” said Eugene Bergstrom, who started coming to China Camp in 1949 with his wife, Marianne, to sunbathe on its pebbly beaches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the Quan family, it was all hands on deck. After school, Quan, his siblings and his cousins would man the 40 rental boats and work the café, where hot dogs sold for 15 cents and shrimp cocktails were fresh from the bay (they’re from Oregon now).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Us girls did the cleaning, and the guys got the boat,” said Georgette Dahlka, Quan’s cousin, who now runs the café with him every weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But after the 1960s, China Camp’s shallow waters went barren. Water diversion and pollution turned the bay brackish and inhospitable to shrimp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we were kids, there was just so much fish out here,” Quan said. “Now it’s almost like a desert out there. … We just watched it slowly die in front of us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_38033\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/08/cropChinaCampboat.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38033 \" title=\"cropChinaCampboat\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/08/boat_edit.jpg\" alt=\"Boat at China Camp\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A boat is docked at China Camp State Park.

It cost the state an estimated $459,411 – mostly for two rangers in the field and two facilities management workers and not including district, sector or headquarter support costs, officials said. The park recorded 95,654 visitors in the last fiscal year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Absent any saviors, China Camp will be shut down in phases, beginning after Labor Day. It must be closed by July 2012.

If they close it down, it’d be destroyed.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quan and park supporters worry China Camp, if shuttered, would fall victim to vandalism, trespassing and other illegal activity. The state estimates it will cost $150,000 annually to protect and preserve China Camp while closed.\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although little remains from China Camp’s heyday in the late 19th century, what’s left is largely unchanged: The handful of postage-stamp houses have been standing as long as Quan has, and the café, now serving tourists, looks just as it did when Quan’s mother and aunt ran it. A visitors center holds artifacts of an old trade, brought here more than 140 years ago by fishermen from China’s Pearl River Delta.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearly 500 people lived in China Camp in the 1880s. For a brief time, after the 1906 San Francisco earthquake and fire, its population swelled to as many as 10,000 as Chinatown residents fled north for refuge. But after a series of discriminatory and restrictive laws, China Camp, and the shrimp fisheries like it, emptied out. Quan’s family stayed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quan’s grandfather came to San Francisco from China’s Guangdong Province in the late 1880s. He ran a general store on Dupont Street, now Grant Avenue, before moving it to China Camp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They ran him out of town,” Quan said of his grandfather, Quan Hung Quock. Facing persecution in San Francisco, thousands of Chinese immigrants settled in Marin County.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In China Camp, men who had been fishermen in their homeland built the same sampans – long wooden fishing boats – and single-mast shrimp junks they sailed in China. Each year, they caught 3 million pounds of shrimp, much of it spread wide over the camp’s hillsides and dried for export.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the 1890s, Chinese fishing villages were booming, much to the chagrin of other ethnic fishermen. The state soon passed regulations to cripple their success – first by closing the height of the shrimping season, then by banning exports of dried shrimp. A 1911 prohibition on bag nets proved crushing: With no other means to catch shrimp, the fishermen left, and the fisheries all but vanished.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Quan Brothers, named for Quan Hung Quock’s two sons, was the only Chinese shrimping outfit left in China Camp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Shrimping ceased until 1914, when Frank Spenger, whose eponymous seafood restaurant remains a Bay Area fixture, designed a new net: the trawl. The cone-shaped net allowed Quan Brothers to breathe life back into the fishery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The family processed 5,000 pounds of shrimp a day, cooking the crustaceans 500 pounds at a time. They sold fresh shrimp wholesale around town, with surplus sold for 10 cents a pound in San Francisco. They dried shrimp for customers in China and Hawaii.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China Camp became a popular destination for locals in the know.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If you saw anybody on a Sunday, you were lucky,” said Eugene Bergstrom, who started coming to China Camp in 1949 with his wife, Marianne, to sunbathe on its pebbly beaches.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For the Quan family, it was all hands on deck. After school, Quan, his siblings and his cousins would man the 40 rental boats and work the café, where hot dogs sold for 15 cents and shrimp cocktails were fresh from the bay (they’re from Oregon now).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Us girls did the cleaning, and the guys got the boat,” said Georgette Dahlka, Quan’s cousin, who now runs the café with him every weekend.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But after the 1960s, China Camp’s shallow waters went barren. Water diversion and pollution turned the bay brackish and inhospitable to shrimp.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When we were kids, there was just so much fish out here,” Quan said. “Now it’s almost like a desert out there. … We just watched it slowly die in front of us.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_38033\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\" style=\"max-width: 300px\">\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/08/cropChinaCampboat.jpg\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-38033 \" title=\"cropChinaCampboat\" src=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/08/boat_edit.jpg\" alt=\"Boat at China Camp\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A boat is docked at China Camp State Park.

The 36 acres containing China Camp Village were donated by developer Chinn Ho to serve as a memorial of its Chinese American history. When the state wrote the park’s \u003ca href=\"https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/229847-china-camp-state-park-general-plan.html\">general plan\u003c/a> in 1979, it carved out a place for Quan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Danita Rodriguez, Marin district superintendent for California State Parks, wants him to stay.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It would be a benefit for us to have him there because he would be able to be some eyes and ears,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In weighing which many parks to shutter, the parks department considered financial strength, ease of closure and visitation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>China Camp brought in $143,022 in revenue in fiscal year 2009-10. It cost the state an estimated $459,411 – mostly for two rangers in the field and two facilities management workers and not including district, sector or headquarter support costs, officials said. The park recorded 95,654 visitors in the last fiscal year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Absent any saviors, China Camp will be shut down in phases, beginning after Labor Day. It must be closed by July 2012.
