Curriculum Council January 22, 2014
Decisions Since Spring 2013 Roster Verification • Actual N Count = 11 Students • Cumulative Count - Per tested grade/subject/course • “Active” N Count = 6 Students • Similar in concept to an “FTE”; 6 “active” students • Example: 11 actual students, each claimed for 50% Instructional Responsibility, would equal 5.5 “active” students” – not enough “active” students for a teacher to get PVAAS teacher specific reporting in this subject/grade • Minimum Threshold for % Instructional Responsibility: 10% • All students need to be rostered • <10% will not be included in a teacher’s analyses
Reminder: Roster VerificationTimelines LEA Start-Up (April 28-May 2) Strongly Recommended Pre-Step: Roster
