Information that appears in this column is compiled from the Ptumas County
Sheriff's Office' activity log, the county correctional center's booking log and
California Highway Patrol press releases. The Sheriff's Blotter shows initial
charges, n some instances the charges may change after the dispatch re-
port. We do not report suspects" names in arrests for public intoxication or
drunken driving unless accompanied by another serious charge, such as proba-
tion violation, a vehicle accident or another felony. The fact that someone
has been arrested and charged with a crime does not constitute guilt. The
case may never appear in court if the district attorney determines there
is insufficient evidence to prosecute. The fact that someone was involved in
an automobile collision does not constitute liability or fault. Minors are
named as legal-age drivers at 16, unless they are charged with a crime in con-
junction with an incident. The CliP determines whether injuries are charac-
terized as minor, moderate or fatal.

"Field Days," is the climax of
the week-long Amateur Radio
Week sponsored by the ARRL,
the national association for am-
ateur radio. Using emergency
power supplies, ham operators
will construct emergency sta-
tions in parks, shopping malls,

the country.
Their slogan, "When All
Else Fails, Ham Radio Works,"
is more than just words to
hams as they prove they can
send messages in many forms
without the use of phone sys-
. tems, Internet or other infra-
structure that can be compro-
mised in a crisis. More than
35,000 amateur radio operators
across the country participat-
ed in last year's event.

Plumas Unified School District
Today California is educating 2 million more students. In 1980, 4,119,000 students were
enrolled in California's public schools. In 2009 just over 6,252,000 students were enrolled. With
the increase in enrollments have come changes in our student population. Latinos are up 189% to
just over 3 million; African Americas are up 21% to 455,000; Asian Americans are up 135% to
566,000; and White students are down ! 8% to 1,742,000.
Our schools have gone from 326,000 students in I980 needing to learn English, to over 1.5
million English learners in 2009. This is a 365% increase in 29 years, which represents
approximately 25% of all students in school.
The numbers of students with special needs has increased 88% in the last 29 years. We now
have over 678,000 special education students. This represents approximately 11% of all students
in California public schools.
The typical American public school has 34% more teachers than California; 40% more school
site administrators; and 75% more counselors; and twice as many high school teachers per student.
In spite of the above facts, our public schools today are scoring significantly higher in student
achievement than they were in 1999. In 1999 5th decile elementary schools scored 628 in the
Academic Performance Index, while today our 1st decile (lowest ranked schools) score 674 or
above on the Academic Performance Index.
Reading scores in the last 7 years (proficient and advanced levels in state testing), have made
tremendous gains. In 2003, the percentage of all students scoring proficient or advanced in
reading has increased by 49%. Latina students have made a 100% increase, while English
Learners increase by 110%.
More students are taking High End secondary math and science in the last seven years. Earth
Science courses have seen a 144% increase since 2003. Algebra II courses have witnessed a 63%
increase since 2003. The numbers'of students who are proficient in physics has increased by 174%
over the last seven years. In summary, Secondary students are taking 60% more college-bound
math and science courses than seven years ago.
Finally, in all areas of the High School Exit Exam, California has a passing rate of 93.4% today.
This is an exceptional rate which represents phenomenal performance of our public schools given
the changing demographics and funding that is affecting our schools today. I am proud of our
California public schools as they are truly some of the best in the nation, and doing this while
being hit with continuous funding cuts!
