Every Student Matters Understanding the Indexes, the Tests, and Targeted Goal for STAAR 2016
2
What score do the students need to Pass? Passing is Not Enough
3
Indexes – 4 Target Scores Needed to Earn Rating Index 1: Student Achievement Target Score: 60 Index 2: Student Progress Target Score: 28 5 th Percentile Index 3: Closing Performance Gaps Target Score: 27 5 th Percentile Index 4: Postsecondary Readiness Target Score: 13
4
What score do the students need to Pass? Every test has 3 different passing standards! Low Medium High All 3 passing standards are different for every test! Roughly 50% Roughly 70% Roughly 80% AND Final Passing Standards are determined AFTER the students take the tests
5
The Passing Levels of Each Index Index 1 Lowest Passing Level Index 4 Middle Passing Level Index 3 Highest Passing Level Index 2 measures GROWTH. It is how you pass between each Index.
6
The Indexes as Medals 1 st Place = Index 3: Level III Advanced 2 nd Place = Index 4: 2 Tests at Level II Final 3 rd Place = Index 1: 2016 Progression Standard Most Improved Player = Index 2: Grow by 3 questions over last year’s test!
7
LOW = Index 1: 2016 Progression Standard 60% of ALL students have to pass at these passing rates There are no other factors GradeMathReadingWritingScienceSocial Studies Algebra I 637%58%XXXX 741%56%57%XXX 846%58%X59%54%41%
8
MEDIUM = Index 4: Level II - Final 13% of ALL students have to pass 2 or more tests at these passing rates 6 th grade 2 out of 2 7 th grade 2 out of 3 8 th grade 2 out of 4 AND 13% of EACH ETHNICITY have to pass 2 or more tests GradeMathReadingWritingScienceSocial Studies Algebra I 660%77%XXXX 761%76%69%XXX 864%77%X76%73%63%
9
HIGH = Index 3: Level III – Advanced Calculation: % passing at the lowest + % passing at the highest ≥ 54 % of Economically Disadvantaged (ALL) & African American Now take 54%/2 levels = 27 Target score Note: Subjects with 1 Grade Level are weighted at 3 times as Subjects with 3 Grade Levels, meaning Science, Social Studies, & Writing counts 3 times as much as Math and Reading GradeMathReadingWritingScienceSocial Studies Algebra I 681%88%XXXX 780%86%83%XXX 886%87%X 83%78%
10
GROWTH = Index 2: Met or Exceeded? Only measures growth for MATH and READING Calculation: % Met + % Exceeded ≥ 56 % of ALL students, Ethnicity, Special Education, and Limited English Speakers Now take 56%/2 levels = 28 Target score WRITING was recently taken out of calculations for this year
11
GROWTH = Index 2 - Levels for STAAR Progress Measure 1. Met Progress A student has maintained their score 2. Exceeded Progress A student has grown significantly 3. Did not meet progress Did not get a Met or Exceeded Score in the Chance Range Any scores less than 25% Just guessing and getting correct
12
GROWTH: Index 2 – STAAR Progress Measured as Numbers These are rough calculations. Every test has a different set of numbers. Chance Range Raw = 1 to 13 questions Percent = score is less than 25% Met Raw = Grow by 3 questions Percent = Add 6-10% percentage points Exceeded Raw = Grow by 10 questions Percent = Add 16-20% percentage points
13
Indexes
14
What Distribution of Numbers Hit the Target Scores? The Perfect Scores
15
Indian Spring Middle School: Campus Distribution 560 Students Ethnicity 365 Hispanic 160 African American 45 Special Education 170 Limited English Proficient
16
LOW = Index 1: Student Achievement
17
MEDIUM = Index 4: Postsecondary Readiness
18
HIGH= Index 3: Closing Performance Gaps
19
GROWTH = Index 2: Student Achievement Note: This would be weighted if Writing were included, but it is not, so the distribution is equal
20
Scenarios With and Without Interventions
21
Without Interventions: Taking Raw 2015 Scores and Applying Current Standards
22
Student InterventionsTeacher Interventions Balancing Classes Push-in Tutoring Pull-out Tutoring After-School Tutoring Zero Hour Enrichment Special Education Inclusion Teachers TEKS aligned Field Trips Block Schedule for Reading classes iPad Integration After School Enrichment Service Learning Projects for 6th Graders Students review their own data & set learning goals Focus Instruction for non-English speaking students Weekly Data Analysis Meetings Weekly Instructional Leadership Meetings Which lead to Instructional Adjustments Embedded Professional Development Co-teaching with a Specialist Coaching from the Specialist Learning Walks Summer Professional Development
23
With Interventions – 2 Months from Testing: Using most current data compiled from District Based Assessments, Checkpoints, Mock STAAR Data
24
STAAR 2016 Targeted Goals for Indian Spring Middle School: From analyzing the growth of current data
25
Apply Interventions More Time and Continued Interventions
