Accountability Scorecards Top to Bottom Ranking February 2016

Changes for Proficiency targets were reset using M-STEP and MI-Access ELA replaced separate Reading and Writing content areas Student Growth Percentiles were computed to measure growth (not for ELA) Safe Harbor and multi-year averages were not calculated ACT and WorkKeys were not included in high school Scorecards or ranking range calculations

Scorecards…

Color-Coded Scorecards Colors are given to schools and districts for each “scorecard component” and an overall color. Overall status color is determined using a point-based system from the number of target areas the school/district has met and the school ranking. Decreasing # points received and increasing # targets not met…

6.The Proficiency tab displays each content area and the associated points earned for proficiency in each applicable student group. 7.The Participation tab displays each content area and whether or not each applicable student group met the 95% assessment participation rate requirement. 8.The Additional Scorecard Components tab displays the points and details for the compliance, educator evaluations, and graduation or attendance rates components of the scorecard. 9.The Scorecard History tab display current and prior scorecard summary information back to the school year if available. 10.Clicking on the View Details link under each content area heading will display detailed student group information for the associated content area. 11.Clicking on the Appeal button (only active during the scorecard appeal window) allows you to submit an appeal for your scorecard data. 12.Clicking on the Download Student Information button will allow you to download the individual student enrollment and proficiency information used in calculating your draft scorecard results.

Proficiency Targets Targets are based on proficiency rates: (85 – current percent proficient) / 9 = annual increment Increments do not reset Proficiency targets are set using PLs 3 & 4 only (not Provisional or Growth Proficient) Provisional and/or Growth Proficient will help you meet targets

Students considered proficient are… vs. “Accountable Proficient” versus Proficient For ‘True Proficiency’ purposes: Performance Level 1 or 2 For ‘Accountable Proficiency’ purposes: Students must attain a performance level of 3 or 4 –OR– Students must attain a scale score that is within two standard errors of the proficient cut score (provisionally proficient). –OR– Students must demonstrate growth at a rate that will allow them to reach proficiency in three years (growth proficient).

Full Academic Year (FAY) Students that were present in the building for the last: 3 count days (Fall, Spring and End-of-year collection) Only FAY students can count toward a school or district’s proficiency rates for accountability purposes Limits the impact of student transiency on accountability Ensures that only students that have been educated by the school/district count for proficiency

Participation Target Two options for school/district color status for this target area. 95% Assessed Met 95% Assessed Not Met

Attendance Rates 3 Possible colors to receive for this target area: If a school meets the attendance target, it will receive a green cell (2 points) for attendance rate. If a school meets the attendance improvement target, it will receive a yellow cell (1 point). If it misses the attendance target, they will receive a red cell (0 points). Audit: *A school/district receiving a red indicator for attendance cannot have an overall color ranking better than yellow.

Graduation Rates 3 Possible colors to receive for this target area: If a school/subgroup has a graduation rate of at least 80%, it will receive a green cell (2 points). If it makes the graduation rate improvement target, it will receive a yellow cell (1 point). If it misses both the rate and the improvement target, they will receive a red cell (0 points). Audit: * A school/district’s overall status color is automatically yellow if it is red for the “All Students” group for this target.

Educator Evaluations Educator Evaluations are based on State law. All of Michigan’s educators will be evaluated using measures of student growth and the results of these evaluations will be reported into MDE’s data systems. Educator Evaluations will be reported as “In Good Standing” or “Not in Good Standing” based on compliance with State law. Two components make up the Educator Evaluations section Effectiveness Labels Completion rate (100% target) TSDL Student Inclusion rate (95% target) 2 Possible colors to receive for this target: Those in good standing will receive a green cell. Those not in good standing will receive a red cell.

Compliance Factors Compliance Factors are based on State law. All schools are required by State law to have a School Improvement Plan (SIP), and to complete School Performance Indicator (SPR) reports. If a school completes all of its required reports it will receive a green cell for the Compliance Factors. If a school does not complete its required reports, it will receive a red cell for Compliance Factors. 2 Possible colors to receive for this target: Those with completed reports receive a green cell. Those with incomplete reports receive a red cell.

Top to Bottom

New for Priority and Focus will not be named again until Reward will not be named again until Achievement Gap removed from TTB and formally made a separate ranking Component weighting will change to 50% Achievement and 50% improvement Content areas weighting will change to be weighted by number of FAY students assessed Improvement will use Student Growth Percentiles (SGPs) in place of Performance Level Change (PLC) and slopes

Stayed the Same… Only FAY students are included Use of Achievement, Improvement, and Graduation components Achievement Graduation Still uses best of 4-, 5-, or 6-year cohort Still counts for 10% of overall ranking

Draft School Rankings

Components of TTB Each component applies to each subject for a school: Achievement (aggregated student z-scores) Improvement [aggregated Student Growth Percentiles (SGPs)] Graduation rate (grad rate and trend of grad rate) Achievement gap will no longer be part of TTB ranking but will be a separate ranking to determine Focus Schools

Achievement Gap Ranking Overview Statewide percentile ranking of most schools Includes content areas of ELA and Math Uses only Full Academic Year (FAY) students Uses two-year averaging for increased stability Used to determine Focus labels New labels will not be given until Schools with gaps larger than the bottom 10% of Title I schools
