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. • CRT growth is measured by the change in scaled score from one year to the next in the same content area
Horizonte growth model applied to other district schools • Using same growth model for students enrolled less than a full academic year, grouped in ethnic/income cohorts, growth results at Horizonte were similar if not better than other schools.
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 50%.
