4. Overview of AYP Appeals • General Considerations • Special Circumstance Appeals • Other Circumstance Exceptions
4a. General Considerations for Appeals • Appeals are not a data correction opportunity. • Appeals are not considered for areas where a district/campus met AYP or was Not Evaluated. • Appeals are considered for areas where AYP was missed, even if the result would mean the district/campus still misses AYP overall.
4b. Special Circumstance Appeals • Hurricane Katrina/Rita Indicator Coding. • Districts impacted by Hurricane Rita but not eligible for the Hurricane Rita Provision. • Districts with students served by Regional Day School Programs for the Deaf. • Title I Targeted Assistance Campuses. • Inclusion of Grades 9 and 11 TAKS. • Districts Annexed by Order of the Commissioner.
4c. Other Circumstance Exceptions • The exceptions process conducted automatically in the AYP system did not cause the state to exceed the 3% cap. • Other circumstance exceptions are allowable and should be submitted as a regular appeal.
5. AYP Information Packet • Please turn now to the AYP Information Packet that was provided to you via email along with this presentation. • The AYP Information Packet is available from the TEASE Accountability website.
6. Exceptions Process • Federal 3% cap is extended by the number of Exceptions • Total Cap applied to eligible districts: Federal 3% cap + Total Exceptions
6. Exceptions Process (cont’d) • Total Exceptions to the cap are identified as: • Students from school districts with a Residential Treatment Facility within their district boundaries, registered through RF Tracker. • Students identified in PEIMS as receiving services in a Residential Treatment Facility. • Students evaluated within the federal cap process (proficient students who either meet ARD expectations on SDAA II and were tested below enrolled grade level, or meet ARD expectations on LDAA).
6. Exceptions Process (cont’d) • Not all Exceptions are Passers • Exceptions allow the federal cap limit to be extended for school districts • The sort order of all students in the district is applied • Students served in RF settings may not be included within the Total Cap limit • However, other students in the sort order will be included • Overall effect for the districts remains: Proficient students = Federal Cap + Total Exceptions
