AYP in every subject, at every grade level, and for every subgroup. Goal for 2010-2011
What is AYP? Adequate Yearly Progress
How AYP is Calculated: A + (B or C) + D = Affirmative AYP Determination + + OR
2011 MCAS Results • Due to be released next week • Headline • Slow, Steady Progress in Most Grades • Some Real Progress in Some Grades
AYP Results • Areas for possible AYP • Aggregate • 3 schools X 2 subjects = 6 • Made AYP in 4 • Subgroups • 3 schools X 2 subjects = 6 • Made AYP in 1
But AYP is becoming ever harder to reach, so…CPI Results • In 14 tests given in ELA and Math • CPI Improvement in 9
Percentage of Students Scoring Advanced or Proficient • For the 17 tests given last spring, the percentage of students scoring Advance or Proficient increased in 13 • On 3 of those test, the increase was more than 10 percentage points • E.g. From 34% scoring A or P up to 46%
Student Growth Percentile • Measures growth of student in a year compared to a similar cohort based on testing history • Below 40 is slow • 40-60 is “normal” • Above 60 is fast
Student Growth Percentiles • Of the 14 test for which a SGP could be calculated • Slow growth in 5 • Normal Growth in 4 • Fast Growth in 5
Last year, we said We are doing the right things… • Not often enough • Not widespread enough
Best Practices 90 90 90 Schools A focus on academic achievement • Clear curriculum choices • Frequent assessment of student progress and multiple opportunities for improvement • An emphasis on nonfiction writing • Collaborative scoring of student work
This year - A tentative summary • We have figured our what to do • Implementation is starting to show real, measurable improvement • Implementation is still uneven • Headwinds at the many of the same grades as in past years • We have a plan to spread best practices to every classroom • We have more to do to reach every student
Plan to Spread Best Practices Professional Pride MCAS NCLB Curriculum Mapping Common Planning RTTT ESW Best Practices In Every Classroom Every Day ISGs Inst Coaches Data Analysis Unit Design Common Assessments Common Core Educator Evaluation School Choice
What Matters Most • What teachers do in the classroom, day to day and minute to minute • Jon Saphier
What’s new? The end of “private practice” The continuation of public accountability The beginning of professional accountability The challenges and rewards of working closely with others
We’ve got our work cut out for us and we know what to do • EVERY CLASSROOM • EVERY STUDENT • EVERY DAY
And so… Next week, MCAS results will show real, measurable progress Not yet fast enough Not yet in every classroom Not yet reaching subgroups We are on the right track We need all hands on deck Let’s get to work… Dr. Kelley has some details and the outline for the rest of the day
