National Governors Association Three Big Opportunities  Alignment Across the Entire Pipeline  Teachers and Principals  State Innovation

National Governors Association Alignment Across the Entire Pipeline  Standards aligned with credit bearing coursework in higher education and relevant career and technical education standards  States must set “challenging state academic standards” in math, language arts and science. State may set standards in other subjects

National Governors Association

Alignment Across the Entire Pipeline  Preschool Development Grants for governors  Early childhood education transitions to K-12  Early childhood educator development  Early Education & English language learners  State education goals aligned with workforce development plan and state career and technical education initiatives  Career and guidance counseling programs  Industry-recognized credentials  State plan alignment with Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act

National Governors Association

Governor’s Role- Alignment  ESSA creates a role for governors in federal education policy by including provisions to:  Require state education agencies to develop the state plan with governors;  Require opportunity for gubernatorial sign off on the ESSA state plan.

National Governors Association Teachers and Principals  Eliminates federal requirement for educator evaluation systems with indicators prescribed by the U.S. Secretary of Education  Title II- continues to support efforts to enhance teacher and principal quality

National Governors Association Teachers and Principals  Opportunity to strengthen the development and support of effective principals (optional 3% set-aside to enhance school leaders)  Teacher Preparation Academies

National Governors Association Now that ESSA is law, states should not ask the U.S. Department of Education what to do next. They should ask themselves.

National Governors Association State Innovation There is opportunity to move the field forward in support of:  Personalized learning models and competency- based education systems, and  Richer, more meaningful evidence of learning.  Technology will be a game changer

National Governors Association Innovative Assessment Pilot  May introduce multiple measures to form an index  combine interim, performance-based assessments, computer-based assessments, interim and summative  Ensures rigor, quality, validity  When students are ready to demonstrate mastery  May be used for accountability purposes  Will they approve seven states?

National Governors Association What is next?

National Governors Association School Improvement  Comprehensive Support and Improvement:  Lowest-performing 5% of Title I schools;  High schools with <67% graduation rates; and  Schools with underperforming subgroups  Targeted Support and Improvement:  Schools with consistently underperforming subgroups  Choose your own “evidence based” school improvement strategy  State and Local Resources:  7% Title I set-aside  Optional local 3% Title I set-aside

National Governors Association High-Stakes Testing Tests AYP One-Size Fits-All Assess. State & Local Testing Layers One Federal Measure Label and Punish One Federal Goal No Child Left Behind

National Governors Association Flexible Assessment in ESSA Annual Tests Mixed Delivery 95% Particip. Rate Innovative Assessment HS Exam Substitute Testing Reduction Resources Multiple Measures State School Ratings State Goals

National Governors Association Two Big Challenges  How far will the pendulum swing- party like its 1999?  Change is hard  school year  Flexibility- can be good or bad  Political realities of more state autonomy

National Governors Association Table Discussion  As states begin to explore the flexibility of ESSA what big opportunities do you see in your state?  Big challenges/concerns?

National Governors Association One Big Question  What will we learn from the past- how will we work to improve education for all students?
