Ten Markers of Success (for data collection years: 2008-09 and 2009-2010) Defining Goals for Schools by Using Data Proxies as “Dashboard Indicators”
Methodology Notes • The Following slides present statistics calculated from the StatsOnline surveys collected in 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 • In order to collect accurate data during the summer/fall of the current school year, StatsOnline uses some statistics belonging to the previous fiscal year and others to the current fiscal year as follows: • From the previous fiscal year: a) Applications per Acceptance; Attrition; Giving; Professional Development and Technology Budget; and Endowment Statistics • From the current fiscal year: Teachers Salaries; Tuition; Financial Aid; and Full-Time Equivalent Staffing (FTE) Statistics
1st Marker of Success: Market DemandNumber of applications per acceptances measures the market’s perception of the school’s “brand” (high ratio a proxy for reputational value), the higher the ratio, the greater the pricing/tuition) flexibility • Day Schools 2008-2009 Boarding Schools 2008-2009 Day Schools 2009-2010 Boarding Schools 2009-2010 (Years mentioned are data collection years)
2nd Marker of Success: Low Attrition Low annual student attrition measures stability of school and satisfaction of parents (low percent a proxy for high stability and satisfaction) • Attrition Day Schools: 2008-09Attrition Boarding Schools: 2008-09 • Attrition Day Schools : 2009-10Attrition Boarding Schools: 2009-10 (Years mentioned are data collection years)
3rd Marker of Success: Giving (Day)Generous giving measures constituent loyalty (generosity as a proxy for high support and attributed effectiveness) (Years mentioned are data collection years)
3rd Marker of Success: Giving (Boarding)Generous giving measures constituent loyalty (generosity as a proxy for high support and attributed effectiveness) (Years mentioned are data collection years)
4th Marker of Success: Faculty Salaries (Day)Competitive Faculty Salaries: measures a school’s capacity to attract, keep, and reward high quality faculty (salaries a proxy for competitiveness in recruitment and high quality teachers) (Years mentioned are data collection years)
4th Marker of Success: Faculty Salaries-BoardingCompetitive Faculty Salaries: measures a school’s capacity to attract, keep, and reward high quality faculty (salaries a proxy for competitiveness in recruitment and high quality teachers) (Years mentioned are data collection years)
5th Marker of Success: TuitionsLower percentile/low tuition (a proxy for comparative “affordability” & competing on price); higher percentile/ high tuition (a proxy for competing on brand) (Years mentioned are data collection years)
6th Marker of Success: Financial Aid - DayA substantial proportion of students receiving financial aid measures a school’s commitment to diversity (financial aid a proxy for socio-economic diversity) and/or a tuition discounting strategy for full enrollment (Years mentioned are data collection years)
6th Marker of Success: Financial Aid-BoardingA substantial proportion of students receiving financial aid measures a school’s commitment to diversity (financial aid a proxy for socio-economic diversity) and/or a tuition discounting strategy for full enrollment (Years mentioned are data collection years)
7th Marker of Success: High Productivity-DayComparatively high student:faculty and student:total staff ratios (percentiles): measure high workload productivity (a proxy for institutional efficiency); low productivity/ratios (a proxy for competing on brand or program not price) (Years mentioned are data collection years)
7th Marker of Success: High Productivity-BoardingComparatively high student:faculty and student:total staff ratios (percentiles): measure high workload productivity (a proxy for institutional efficiency); low productivity/ratios (a proxy for competing on brand or program not price) (Years mentioned are data collection years)
8th Marker of Success: Funding Prof Dev & Tech- Day Significant budget for professional development and technology: measures commitment to human resources and innovation (a proxy for investment in supporting a high-quality learning environment). (Years mentioned are data collection years)
8th Marker of Success: Funding Prof Dev & Tech- Boarding Significant budget for professional development and technology: measures commitment to human resources and innovation (a proxy for investment in supporting a high-quality learning environment). (Years mentioned are data collection years)
9th Marker of Success: Endowment - DayGrowing endowment: measures commitment to financial security (a proxy for inter-generational equity and long-term stability). (Years mentioned are data collection years)
9th Marker of Success: Endowment - BoardingGrowing endowment: measures commitment to financial security (a proxy for inter-generational equity and long-term stability). (Years mentioned are data collection years)
10th Marker of Success: Student OutcomesStudent outcomes measure overall success of mission (persistence and graduation rates a proxy for effective preparation academically and constitutionally to succeed in future competitive academic environments) • Metrics and Tools To Measure Student Outcomes • Normative Testing (SATs, ERBs, APs, IBs, etc.) • Formative Testing (ERBs, MAP, CWRA, etc.) • Demonstrations of Learning (e-Portfolios) • Matriculation to academically competitive secondary schools and colleges • Graduation from 4-year colleges within six years (NELS) • High School Survey of Student Engagement (HSSSE) • Transcripts/Self-reporting on preparation for and success in college (NAIS Young Alumni Survey; UCLA/HERI Annual College Freshmen Survey)
