  7. Reporting Cycle – Overlaps 1 2 • 2009-2010 School Year: • August 2009 = 2009 Accountability Ratings Released (2007-2008 students, reported during 2008-2009 school year) – Done! • Attempting to recover students who withdrew during the 2008-2009 school year. • September 25, 2009 = Close of the School Start Window. Continue to verify 2008-2009 data through January. • These will be the students that impact your 2010 Accountability • Enrolling and withdrawing 2009-2010 students that will need to be reported during the 2010-2011 year and will impact your 2011 Accountability

  8. School Start Window (SSW) School-Start Window. This is the period of time between the first day of school and the last Friday in September. The end of the school-start window is the day that students served in the prior year must return to school to not be considered leavers.

  9. Completion Rate Clarification • Class vs. Cohort. The denominator of the Completion Rate calculation is defined as the “class.” The class is the sum of students from the original cohort who have a final status of “graduated,” “continued,” “received GED,” or “dropped out.” • Cohort Members. Students stay with their original cohort, whether they are retained or promoted. Students are members of one and only one cohort.

  10. Completion Rate I • Districts and campuses that have served grades 9 through 12 for five or more years. High schools that do not meet this requirement are not evaluated on this indicator in 2010. • 9th Grade Cohort of 2005-2006 OR Graduating Class of 2008-2009. • To count as a "completer" for standard accountability procedures, a student must have received a high school diploma with his/her class (or earlier) or re-enrolled in the Fall of 2009 (by September 25, 2009) as a continuing student.

  11. Completion Rate I number of completers number in class* *Cohort of 2005-2006 students OR Graduating Class of 2008-2009. Enrollment and Attendance Data is reviewed. Standard: • Exemplary – Completion Rate I of 95.0% or more. • Recognized – Completion Rate I of 85.0% or more. • Academically Acceptable – Completion Rate I of 75.0% or more. Student Groups: Performance is evaluated for All Students and the following student groups: African American, Hispanic, White, and Economically Disadvantaged meeting MSR.

  12. Completion Rate I • Special Education. The completion status of students with disabilities is included in this measure. • And… appeals option was provided in 2009….based on IEPs.

  13. School Start Window - SSW • Continuers vs Dropouts If a district/campus is still serving students who have not passed TAKS through TAKS remediation, etc., the district/campus mustsubmit PEIMS enrollment information showing that the student returnedwithin the school-start window (PEIMS As-Of-Status- Code B or C).

  15. Enrollment

  16. Student Examples

  17. Continuers who have not passed TAKS • To report through PEIMS that a student returned within the SSW when the student has all course credits, but has not passed TAKS, at a minimum, a student needs to:appear on campus at least once during the school-start window, meet with appropriate school personnel such as a counselor, and fill out an enrollment card and/or submit enrollment information appropriate for any returning and/or enrolling student.

  18. Dropouts • Students who leave due to reasons identified with an asterisk are not counted as dropouts. Only students reported with leaver code 98 are defined as dropouts.

  19. HB 3 and Dropouts • House Bill 3 (HB3) defined certain exclusions that the TEA must make when evaluating dropout and completion rates for accreditation and performance ratings. The exclusions can be grouped into five categories: • Previous dropouts; • ADA ineligible dropouts; • Court-ordered GEDs, not earned; • Incarcerated in facilities not served by Texas public schools; and, • Refugees and asylees. • These five exclusions apply beginning with the 2011-12 school year. Final decisions regarding the transition to the use of dropout exclusions are yet to be made. Dropouts collected for the 2008-09 and 2009-2010 school years will be defined using the current definitions with no new exclusions applied.

  20. AYP Preview Regulations directly related to AYP: A Uniform, Comparable Graduation Rate • Timeline to Implement the Four-year Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate • Report the Four-year Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate by 2011 AYP; • Use for AYP decisions in 2012 AYP. • Option to Use an Extended-Year Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate or Rates • Permit states to propose one or more extended-year adjusted cohort graduation rates.
