28. CRT Growth in Math (students enrolled 90+ days) 60% had scaled score gains

29. CRT growth model at Horizonte  Most students are enrolled less than a full academic year, many lack a previous CRT score for comparison and many do not take the CRTs in the normal test sequence. Consequently there are very few students that meet the criteria needed for the SLCSD growth model.  CRT growth at Horizonte is measured by the change in scaled score from one year to the next in the same content area.

30. Horizonte growth model applied to other district high schools  Using same growth model for students enrolled less than a full academic year and grouped in ethnic/income cohorts, growth results at Horizonte were similar if not better than other schools.

33. Goals for 2012-13  Formative growth goals will increase from a minimum of 55% students showing growth to 60%.  CRT growth goals will also increase from a minimum of 30% students showing growth to at least 53%.
