6. What Has Brought Us Here?
“Hammer of Accountability”
of a Single Test
Balanced Scorecard
Flashlight of
Continuous Improvement
MULTIPLE MEASURES
Explain this through “Where have we been” and/or “What does the SPF replace”; in the past, we used a single test score; there has been progress along this journey, but we feel the SPF now holds the values present in the following slides.
WHOLE SCHOOL 6

7. COLLEGE, CAREER, COMMUNITY READY
Values
WHOLE CHILD
IMPACT
This is the Why – because we value these things, we have created a measure that includes these things.
COLLEGE, CAREER, COMMUNITY READY
EQUITY 7

8. 60% 40% Multiple Measures WHOLE CHILD Academic Measures
Culture/ Climate Measures
WHOLE CHILD
Weight is divided between academic indicators & culture-climate measures; this is an effort to measure the whole child. 8

9. Eliminating Inequity Who is achieving? EQUITY
OVERALL SCORE
ALL STUDENTS
Lowest Performing Racial Group
Low Income
English Learners
Students with Disabilities
We are targeting this group of students because they are historically underserved students. We shine a light on them in the name of equity. Weight for any given indicator is equally given to All Students as well as to the combination of the targeted groups of students.
EQUITY 9

10. Indicator Performance
Measuring Growth
Given where our students begin, what impact does our program have on them?
Status
IMPACT
It’s important to consider the different communities of students that schools are treating. Schools are at different points of their improvement journeys. Every indicator includes status AND GROWTH, which is change from prior year; 50% weight given to each
Indicator Performance
Growth 10

11. Building blocks to achieve Vision
Why these indicators?
COLLEGE, CAREER, COMMUNITY READY
Ultimately, each of these measures will help us monitor students as we prepare them for college, career, and community readiness.
When taken as a whole, the SPF indicators provide a set of milestones of student progress that lead to student success and graduation. 11

12. Tiers of performance in individual indicators drive Differentiated Supports
HIGH
Every measure has a score value and a color representation going from highest performance (represented as blue) to lowest performance (represented as red). This system will be utilized for every measure you see from here.
LOW 12
2/12/15

13. How Can Different Groups Use the SPF?
Parents—help improve performance at their school and make enrollment decisions
Community organizations—support schools
Teachers—communicate results to parents and students and provide input on improvement strategies
School leaders and School Site Councils—prioritize areas for improvement
Network leaders—share best practices
District leadership—make management decisions about recognition, autonomy, support, and intervention 13

14. Our School’s Rating
[Show a Screen Shot of Your School’s Overall Tier and its Components, taken from the first page of the Technical Report.
Replace screen shots on following slides as well.]
Hand out hard copies of the Summary Report for community conversations and Summary Report with Technical Report for staff conversations 14

15. Scavenger Hunt What is the overall tier color of your school?
What is your school’s Academic Status and Growth Tiers?
How was your school rated for the culture & climate growth/improvement this year? And what does this mean for your school?
Which sub group is getting suspended the most? Has the school improved its suspension rate with this student subgroup in the last year?
How are parents and students rating the school’s culture and climate?
What is the growth rate for African American students with chronic absence? Is this a good thing or not? 
[if needed, could be done with sample school report for audience to first understand what is in report] 15

16. Bright Spots What are bright spots for your school in current status?
What are bright spots in growth?
What are bright spots for student groups?
What is surprising? What do you need to investigate more?
Have audience members generate these themselves; give them some time to generate them on their own before sharing with the whole group. 16

17. Current Action Plan
[Insert list of Site Plan priorities in order to show current efforts; if appropriate, prompt conversation on whether priorities will accurately meet needs with prompts below]
What are your priorities in your Site Plan?
Do any adjustments need to be made for 17-18?
What adjustments need to be made for 18-19? 17

18. What Can Teachers Do Next?
Identify bright spots and communicate to families in next parent teacher conferences.
Determine what school is already doing to address needs.
Use results in next team meeting (ILT, SSC, PLC, others) to determine action plans. 18

19. What Can Parents Do Next?
Identify and celebrate bright spots.
Connect with principal and/or teachers to determine how school is using the rating to improve.
If you are in a community-based support organization such as a PTA or PTO, use next meeting to determine how you can support school.
Consider joining your School Site Council to determine how to improve your school. 19
