  1. Accountability 101

  2. Federal Accountability Accountability Calculations State Accountability # Students Met Standard # Students Tested If the Standard is not met: Apply Required Improvement Recalculate Using TPM Use Exceptions Note: Can use any combination of the three provisions, but can only use one provisions for a single indicator. # Students Met Standard # Students Tested If the Standard is not met: Calculate Performance Improvement/Safe Harbor Compare Met Standard Rate for 2009 and 2010 (without TPM) A 10% Reduction of Failures and Meeting the Other Measure for the Group or showing any improvement. Recalculate Using TPM

  3. State Potential Measures - 35 Reviewing and analyzing a State Data Table. [Review a sample data table with the group.]

  4. AYP Potential Measures - 29 ! = Used for other measure Reviewing and analyzing an AYP Data Table. [Review a sample data table with the group.]

  5. Additional Featuresfor TAKS Measures *Only one feature can be used per measure; however, different features can be used for different measures. **Without TPM

  6. Performance Indicators • Students must have been enrolled the full academic year: snapshot and test date. • The scores are summed across grades by subject.

  7. Where does it all come from?

  8. Where does it all come from?

  9. Uniform Assessment System: TAKS TAKS (Accommodated) TAKS-Modified TAKS-Alternate All TEKS-Based Differences in Standards Include SWD Cap on Alternate Assessments Additional Accountability: State Performance Plan Ratings • Test All Students • Uniform Assessment • Reading • Mathematics • Review Specific • Student Groups • Review Other Areas

  10. AEIS Data Districts and campuses receive AEIS System Reports in November of each year for the prior year’s results. The Accountability Rating System (State Accountability) reviews a subset of AEIS indicators with specific performance standards. School Report Cards, (available on the web through the AEIS site, by year starting with 1997-98) are sent out to parents by their children's schools. These show a subset of the performance, staff, and financial measures in the AEIS reports.

  11. Accountability Rating System (State) • How does this system work? • Rating Labels • Exemplary • Recognized • Academically Acceptable • Academically Unacceptable • 35 Potential Measures • Minimum Size Criteria • Other…See Mini-Chart • Information is reported through ‘Data Tables’…. District & Campus

  12. Performance Standard Continuum • Beyond the All Students, does the indicator’s group size meet minimum size criteria? • If yes, was the standard met? • If no, was required improvement met? • If no, was the standard met with TPM applied? • If no, can an ‘Exception’ be applied? • Are there enough exceptions to move the campus to AA? • Was the exception used for the same measure the prior year? If so, it cannot be used again the subsequent year.

  13. Performance Standard Continuum • Students must have been enrolled the ‘full academic year’ –snapshot date (last Friday in October) & test date to be included in accountability measures. This is called the accountability sub-set.

  14. Required Improvement (State) Required Improvement Calculations are applied if the standard is not met. RI = The amount of gain required to reach the standard in two years. Can be used to move from Unacceptable to Acceptable or Acceptable to Recognized. The gain from 2009 must allow the indicator to reach the standard if the gain were repeated the next year. There is no floor when moving to Acceptable. The rating must be within 5 points to move to Recognized. Required Improvement is always reviewed first. If it cannot increase the indicator rating, TPM is applied, followed by Exceptions, if applicable.

  15. Texas Projection Measure (TPM) • Identifies if student is projected to pass next high stakes test at 5th, 8th or 11th grade. • Only available for students in grades 3-10 who: • Test on TAKS, TAKS-Acc, TAKS-LAT • Have scored results this year for both Reading and Math • Test in the same language • TPM is not available for: • 7th Grade Writing • 8th Grade Science (2009 only, available in 2010) • All 11th Grade Subjects • TPM can increase the campus rating to Acceptable, Recognized or Exemplary. • If applying TPM does not raise the indicator rating, Exceptions are reviewed, if applicable.

  16. Exceptions Exceptions may not be used for the same indicator two consecutive years.

  17. ‘Passing & Preparedness’

  18. Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) Federal System which incorporates our state assessments, plus graduation, attendance, and participation.

  19. AYP Standards & Comparison to State Standards Across Years

  20. Calculations

  21. Minimum Size Criteria

  22. Other AYP Information TAKS (Accommodated) is combined with the TAKS results TAKS-M is used for performance (with a 2% cap) TAKS-Alt is used for performance (with a 1% cap)
