from the LAUSD Office of School Operations
The iSTAR system runs in real time and reports incidents to the office of school operations and the local district offices/educational support centers - with updates about every five minutes.
The system, which came online on April 1, 2010, tracks incidences of Injury, Accident, Medical, Possession of Weapons, Arrest, Assault & Battery, Bullying, Possession of Illegal/Controlled Substances, Burglary, Fighting/Physical Aggression, Harassment, Disruptive Behavior/Annoyance, Threat, Suicidal Behavior (Threat to harm self), Inappropriate Conduct, Inappropriate Sexual Behavior , Vandalism/Property Damage, and Altercation by or to students and adults.
This report contains a summary of incidents reported through iSTAR for the 2010-2011 school year.
The data from this system is used to assist sites and departments in resolving incidents as quickly as possible to ensure the safety of all students and staff and minimize any potential impact to instruction. This data is also used to identify trends concerning student safety and well being to prevent future incidents.
smf: This report from last year is the first of its kind and sets a benchmark for this and future years. Obviously LAUSD has been extraordinarily challenged in 2011 – 12 with issues around the abuse of students and the reporting thereof; the death of Cindi Santana - and bullying has drawn unusual scrutiny on a national scale.
It will be interesting to compare this year to the last.
