MI-SAAS: Michigan School Accreditation and Accountability System Overview of Key Features 2010-2011 School Year
MI-SAAS History • Designed to replace the EdYes! system in order to: • Create coherent accountability policy in Michigan • Align federal and state requirements • Implement a system that is more transparent and credible
Overview of MI-SAAS MI standards determine accreditation Recognition of academic progress and success in all core subjects Recognition that 5 and 6 year graduation rates are successes Schools will be able to understand their accreditation status
Components of MI-SAAS • Four components: • Student Proficiency and Improvement (Statewide Top to Bottom Ranking) • Additional Factors (compliance with statute, Board policy) • AYP Status • Persistently Lowest Achieving school status To be fully accredited, you need to be accredited in all areas.
MI-SAAS Reporting • Dashboard display • Allows schools, teachers, students and parents to understand performance on multiple metrics • Allows schools and districts to report additional information (Success Indicators, other accreditations, etc.) • Note: Does not count toward calculation; for informational purposes only
Student Proficiency and Improvement Statewide Top to Bottom Ranking calculations Only for schools with at least 30 full academic year students over the previous two years. Grade 3-9 students will be assigned to the “feeder school” where they learned during the year prior to testing for proficiency. Proficiency is based on MEAP and MI-Access or MME and MI-Access Based on two-year average percent proficient and improvement
Student Improvement: Performance Level Change Achievement “growth” can be calculated only where a Grade 3-8 student has been tested in consecutive years (ie, ELA and Math).
Student Improvement: Four Year Improvement Slope • Predict school-level percents proficient by year for the previous four years
Start with raw data % proficient % improving minus % declining (MEAP reading and math grades 4-7) % improvement trend slope (MEAP Grades 3 and 8; MME) May 17, 2010 9
Calculate an index and percentile rank for each… Subject May 17, 2010 10
Calculate average and overall percentile rank May 17, 2010 11
Statewide Percentile Rank: Accreditation Status • Lowest 5% ranking: Unaccredited • 6-20% ranking: Interim • Above 20% ranking: Accredited Note: This is the initial accreditation status, based on statewide ranking of proficiency and improvement.
Additional Factors Nine requirements have “yes”/“no” answers Do 100% of school staff, as required, hold MI certification? Is the school’s annual School Improvement Plan published? Are required curricula offered? Grade Level Content Expectations in grades K-8 Michigan Merit Curriculum in grades 9-12 Is a fully compliant Annual Report published? Have the School Performance Indicators or equivalent been submitted? Are literacy and math tested annually in grades 1-5? Is the five-year high school graduation rate 80% or above (if the school has a graduation rate), or is the attendance rate 90% or above (if the school does not have a graduation rate)?” If the school was selected to participate in NAEP, did the school do so? Did the school test 95% of all students in every subject? If the answer is “no” (to any question) in two consecutive years, the accreditation status is lowered one level, even if the “no” is for a different question each year.
PLA List and AYP Status • If a school is on the PLA list, the school is unaccredited. • If a school fails AYP, the accreditation status is lowered one level. • Failing AYP cannot lower a school below “interim.”
