12. How are the Performance Levels Determined?
Performance is evaluated for both “status” and “change”
Status: How well did we do according to the most recent year of data?
Change: How does our current performance compare to prior years?
For each indicator there are 5 status levels and 5 change levels.
Student group performance will be identified for every group with 30 or more. It may be helpful to see all the student groups and even individual schools on a 5x5 together for a visual effect of the differences in performance. Using a blank 5x5 as is found on the bottom half of your 5x5 grid handout, capturing performance of student subgroups compared to “All Students” could be insightful. Another resource that is available online is a table view whereby all indicators are listed with each student group so that performance could be calculated and shown for all State Indicators on a single page.

13. How is the Color (Performance Level) Determined?
The combination of status and change results in a performance level (color):

Level of Support
Description of Supports Available
Support for All LEAs and Schools
(Level 1)
Various state and local agencies provide an array of support, resources, tools, and voluntary assistance that all LEAs may use to improve student performance at the LEA and school level and narrow disparities among student groups across the LCFF priorities, including recognition for success and the ability to share promising practices.
Differentiated Assistance
(Level 2)
County superintendents, the California Department of Education, charter authorizers, and the California Collaborative for Educational Excellence provide differentiated assistance for LEAs and schools, in the form of individually designed assistance, to address identified performance issues, including significant disparities in performance among student groups.
Intensive Intervention
(Level 3)
The Superintendent of Public Instruction or, for charter schools, the charter authorizer may require more intensive interventions for LEAs or schools with persistent performance issues over a specified time period.
