AYP Participation Aggregate percent tested across all grades tested at the school Total Number Tested (grades 3+4+5) Total Number Enrolled (grades 3+4+5) 11/30/2018

Full Academic Year Students enrolled in the school for the three most recent semi-annual official count days Students in their first year in a school because of the grade structure of the school if the student was, in the previous year, enrolled in another school in the same district for example, a student “graduating” from a K-4 elementary school to a 5-8 middle school 11/30/2018

Feeder Codes Because the Elementary and Middle School assessment window is in the fall, feeder codes are used to attribute scores to the school where the student was enrolled in 2006-07 If the district did not assign a feeder code, SRSD was used to look-up enrollment in 2006-07 for the student 11/30/2018

AYP Targets MDE has set separate statewide AYP targets for each grade A Proficiency Index is used to combine the grade level proficiency data and grade level targets to make an AYP decision across the grades 11/30/2018

Grade Level AYP Targets 11/30/2018

Proficiency Index The difference between the percent proficient and the grade level target is computed for each grade level The difference is weighted by the number tested at each grade The weighted differences are summed across grades The school meets the state objective if the Proficiency Index is 0 or more 11/30/2018

Index ELA 11/30/2018

Provisional 2006-07 11/30/2018

Safe Harbor An additional way to meet the AYP achievement target Achievement must improve from year to year Provisionally proficient students counted in both the prior year and the current year 11/30/2018

Safe Harbor 11/30/2018

NCLB Graduation Rate NCLB requires that AYP include a graduation rate based on the percentage of students that Receive a REGULAR high school diploma In the STANDARD number of years AYP (including a graduation rate) is required for ALL schools 11/30/2018

Michigan Graduation Rates Michigan is moving to a “cohort method” of reporting Graduation Rates The “cohort method” follows students across their high school careers The “cohort method” will include graduation rates for each student group that can be reliably measured – 30 or more students expected to graduate 11/30/2018

Graduation Rates for 2007-08 AYP The Graduation/Dropout Review and Comment Application from CEPI provides the graduation rates used for AYP for the class of 2007 The application will open in late winter or early spring of 2008 11/30/2018

Fifth Year Students Districts will be able to designate certain students not expected to graduate in four years Students with disabilities English language learners Medically fragile 11/30/2018

AYP and Graduation Rate The AYP target graduation rate will remain at 80% until such time as the cohort rate is implemented Improvement in the graduation rate will substitute for meeting the target using “safe harbor” 11/30/2018

All students taking MI-Access are counted as tested Cap of 1% on MI-Access proficient scores Cap is district-wide Some schools might exceed the cap 11/30/2018
