District Profile
Student and No Child Left Behind Information (NCLB)
The Massachusetts Department of Education requires school districts to submit student data three times each year. This database known as the Student Information Management System (SIMS) tracks student information in each district by means of each student's State Assigned Student IDentification (SASID number). In addition to SIMS the State requires that we also submit separate reports in other areas such as Student Discipline, English Language Learners test data, our Technology Plan, Professional Development Plan, District Improvement Plan etc.
When students register for school in Quincy they are entered into our information system (StarBase) and assigned a SASID number. The StarBase database is used by over 700 school staff for a variety of functions. School secretaries register students and keep contact and emergency information up-to-date, attendance aides enter daily attendance, assistant principals enter discipline information, teachers enter information for interim reports and grades for report cards, and principals, directors and other administrators continually access this student information. Scheduling at the middle schools and high schools is completed by 3 staff members who also provide technical support on a daily basis to over 700 StarBase users.
Data about the Quincy Public Schools and its students is required to be submitted three (3) times each year to the Massachusetts Department of Education. The DOE collects this information as part of the state Student Information Management system (SIMS). You can view facts and figures on demographics, including October 1 enrollment, a breakdown of racial and ethnic percentages, high school statistics and information on special populations by viewing SIMSVIEWER (password is Quincy). Simsviewer allows you to search on a variety of demographic criteria and view reports.
Coordinated Program Review
As part of its accountability system, the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education oversees local compliance with education requirements through the Coordinated Program Review (CPR). All reviews cover selected requirements in the following areas: Special Education, Civil Rights, English Language Learners, and Career/Vocational Technical Education. Additional audits of Title 1, Food Services, and the Safe and Drug Free Grant program were also conducted. View/print a copy of the 2008 Coordinated Program Review.

School Profiles and No Child Left Behind Report Cards
The Massachusetts Department of Education compiles information from the district to create an individual school profile. The profile contains information about the grade span in the school, the enrollment, the demographics, teacher data, MCAS scores and financial information. The second report is required by the No Child Left Behind legislation. The Annual Yearly Progress Report shows whether or not our schools are on target to meet the goal of all students reaching proficiency in English Language Arts and Mathematics by 2014 a fundamental goal of the federal NCLB Act. The AYP letter is available in Chinese by clicking here.
