  1. Overview of the PROPOSED Accountability Rating Systemfor Texas Public Schools and Districts • Accountability System

  2. Statutory Requirements of House Bill 3 (2009) • Focus on Postsecondary Readiness • Inclusion of Student Progress • Emphasis on Closing Achievement Gaps • New STAAR program with EOC-based assessments for middle schools and high schools • Lessons learned from previous state accountability rating systems • Successful models used by other states, e.g. CA, CO, FL, GA, KY, LA, OH, OK, NC, SC Framework Development Process • Accountability System

  3. Overview of Proposed Performance Index Framework

  4. Student Achievement • Index I • All Students Only • Combined over All Subject Areas • Credit given for Satisfactory performance level (Level II) on: • STAAR Grades 3-8 English and Spanish at final Level II performance standard for assessments administered in the spring; • EOC at final Level II performance standard for assessments administered in the spring and the previous fall and summer. • Credit given for Satisfactory performance level (Level II) on: • STAAR Grades 3-8 and EOC Modified and Alternate at final Level II performance standard; • STAAR L (linguistically accommodated) are included based on a new ELL progress measure; • TAKS included in 2013 only: Grade 11 results at Met Standard performance standard. STAAR Satisfactory Performance

  5. Student Achievement • Index I • = 45+ Scoring Table

  6. Ten Student Groups Evaluated: • All Students • Race/Ethnicity: • African American, American Indian, Asian, Hispanic, Pacific Islander, White • Two or More Races • Students with Disabilities • English Language Learners (ELLs) • By Subject Area (Reading, Mathematics, and Writing) • Same assessments used in Index 1 where student progress measures are available • Credit given for meeting the student progress measure requirements for: • Progress toward Satisfactory performance (Level II), or • Progress toward Advanced performance (Level III • Student Progress • Index 2 Student Progress toward Satisfactory or Advanced Performance Levels (2014 and beyond)

  7. = 45+ 44+ • Student Progress • Index 2 Scoring Table

  8. All Economically Disadvantaged Students and Two Lowest Performing Racial/Ethnic Groups based on the Index 1 student achievement indicator reported in the prior year • By Subject Area (Reading/ELA, Mathematics, Writing, Science, and Social Studies) • Same Assessments Used in Index 1 • Credit based on weighted performance: • One point credit given for each percentage of students at the final Level II Satisfactory performance standard • Two point credit given for each percentage of students at the final Level III Advanced performance standard (2014 and beyond) • Closing Performance Gaps • Index 3 Achievement Gaps Measured for Satisfactory and Advanced Levels

  9. Closing Performance Gaps • Index 3 Scoring Table

  10. = 48+ 45+ 44+ • Closing Performance Gaps • Index 3 Scoring Table

  11. STAAR Percent Met Level III- 2014 and beyond • Assessment results include all assessments evaluated in Index I • Combined over All Subjects: Reading, Writing, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies • Eight Student Groups Evaluated: • All Students • Each Race / Ethnicity • Four-year Graduation Rate or Five-year Graduation Rate (or Annual Dropout Rate if no graduation rate) • Ten Student Groups Evaluated; All Students, each Race/Ethnicity, Students with Disabilities, and ELLs • Percent Recommended or Advanced High School Program Plan (RHSP/AHSP) Graduates • Eight Student Groups Evaluated: All Students and each Race/Ethnicity Measures of Postsecondary Readiness • Postsecondary Readiness • Index 4

  12. Scoring Table: High Schools with a Graduation Rate • 192 • or • 55= 48+ 45+ 44+ • Postsecondary Readiness • Index 4

  13. Scoring Table: High Schools without a Graduation Rate • 190 • or • 51= 48+ 45+ 44+ • Postsecondary Readiness • Index 4 Annual Dropout Rate Conversion Formula: 100 – (Gr. 9-12 Annual Dropout Rate x 10), with a floor of zero

  14. Scoring Table: Elementary and Middle Schools • 167 • 30= 48+ 45+ 44+ • Postsecondary Readiness • Index 4

  15. State Accountability Ratings & Distinctions • Accountability System

  16. Exclusions for Students with Disabilities (SWD) and English Language Learners (ELL) • Evaluation of the four indexes to produce single accountability rating for campus or district • Relationship between index scores, rating labels, and intervention requirements • Application of system safeguards • Evaluation of alternative education campuses • Transition Issues between 2013 and 2014 • Inclusion of a performance measure for English Language Learners (ELLs) • State and federal reporting Pending Issues • Accountability System
