  1. Accountability data overview August 2014

  2. Topics • Changes to 2014 accountability reporting • Overview of accountability measures • Progress & Performance Index (PPI) • School percentiles • Accountability & assistance levels • Reports • Resources & tools Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education

  3. Highlights of ESEA Flexibility in MA • Goal: Reducing proficiency gaps by half by 2017 • Accountability & assistance levels for schools & districts (Levels 1-5) • Progress & Performance Index (PPI) – a performance measure that includes student growth, science, & other indicators • School percentiles – representing performance relative to other schools of the same school type • “High needs” subgroup data reported • Low income students, students with disabilities, current & former English language learners Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education

  9. What are some key PPI concepts? • The PPI is a measure of progress toward a group’s gap-narrowing goals • Annual PPI shows progress over two years • Cumulative PPI represents trend over time • Core indicators (up to 7) • ELA, math, & science proficiency gap narrowing (CPI) • ELA & math growth (SGP) • Annual dropout rate • Cohort graduation rate (4-and 5-year) • Extra credit • Reducing percentage of students scoring Warning/Failing &/or increasing percentage of students scoring Advanced (10 percent or more) • Reengaging dropouts (2 or more students) Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education

  10. Annual PPI = total points / # core indicatorsCumulative PPI = (2011*1 + 2012*2 + 2013*3 + 2014*4) / 10 Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education

  11. The PPI and the school percentile • PPI is a criterion-referenced measure of progress • Percentiles are relative, & help the state & districts focus supports on low-achieving students in low performing schools • Massachusetts uses school types (ES, ESMS, MS, MSHS/K-12, HS) to fairly compare the performance of schools serving the same or similar grades & distribute resources equitably • Every school’s percentile & PPI tells a different story • Schools with lower percentiles but higher PPIs for all student groups are showing improvement over time • Schools with higher percentiles but lower PPIs are high performing, but have more work to do to support student success Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education

  12. What are some key Level concepts? • Schools & districts are classified into a level based on a four-year trend • The cumulative PPI for all students & high needs students is used to classify schools into Levels 1 & 2 • School percentiles (1-99) represent performance relative to other schools of the school type, & are used to determine Level 3 schools (lowest-performing 20 percent per state law) • Districts are classified based on the level of lowest-performing school (exception for Board action) Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education

Accountability reports • Layer 1: • Accountability & assistance level • Reason(s) for level designation • School percentile (schools only) • Determination of need for Special Education technical assistance or intervention (districts and single-school districts only) • Cumulative Progress & Performance Index (PPI) for all student groups • Summary of school accountability information (districts only) • Layer 2 (group-specific): • Annual & cumulative PPI figures • Points awarded for each indicator • Assessment participation data • Layer 3: • Detailed data for each indicator for all student groups Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education
