College and Career Ready means an individual has the academic preparation, cognitive preparation, technical skills, and employability skills to be successful in postsecondary education, in the attainment of an industry recognized certification or in the workforce, without the need for remediation.
Kansas Summative Assessment Should tie in with the State Boards definition of College & Career Ready Should be meaningful to students. Must be appropriate for ALL students. Should be rigorous, and provide meaningful/timely data Should have flexibility at the local level.
Options for the KCCRAAC to Consider 1. Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium for 3-8 and H.S. (CETE will score, administer, and report) 2. Assessment Vendor, e.g. ACT for 3-8 and H.S. 3. Hybrid Assessment Model (i.e., the state will provide a default assessment and allow districts if they so choose to use another USED approved assessment funded by the district) 4. CETE-developed Assessment for 3-8 and H.S
Recommendation to State Board Beginning 2014-2015 School
Cost to Kansas to Support this Model Kansas currently spends $4.6 million on state assessments Additional cost of SBAC assessment of $1.7 million Additional cost of DLM assessment of $164,000 Total additional cost of $1,864,000 Cost to fund ACT/SAT of $1.5 million
ESEA Waiver Update • All States must re-submit their waiver to extend for two more years (2015-16 & 2016-17) or until ESEA is reauthorized. • Kansas will re-submit in January 2014. • We will make any changes or amendments to our waiver during this process. • Two optional amendments: • No double testing during 2013-14 for students taking the SBAC field test. • Use of student growth measures to inform personnel decisions in 2016-17
Moving from Proficient to College & Career Ready Proficient What % of Kansas Students meet grade level proficiency, and ready to move to the next grade level? Math 2012 = 85% Reading 2012 = 87% College & Career Ready What % of Kansas Students perform at a CCR level on the new assessments? 65% ??? We don’t know, but we need to be prepared to communicate that we have raised the bar.
