Numbered Memorandum 007-2011-12 ELL participation in ELPA During the 11-12 school year, the ODE revised a previous ELPA participation memorandum. All eligible ELLs, who are enrolled during the official English Language Proficiency Assessment (ELPA) testing window, are required to participate in the ELPA. Eligible students who did not participate in the ELPA, but were enrolled and present anytime during the official ELPA testing window, will be included in the district AMAO report as not making sufficient gains in proficiency as defined by AMAO1. AMAO1 measures whether students gain one or more proficiency level(s) annually. Identified ELL students who are enrolled and present anytime but do not participate in ELPA will be included in the denominator of the AMAO 1 calculation. Their gain will be included in the AMAO 1 numerator as a zero (0). The ODE defines the official ELPA testing window as the dates posted on the Oregon Statewide Testing Schedule, located in the Oregon Test Administration Manual: http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?=486. This policy regarding the ELL student participation in the annual ELPA ensures that Oregon is compliant with ESEA Title III rules and guidance. 11/22/2018 Oregon Department of Education

Number Memorandum scenarios ODE has outlined the AMAO 1 exclusion scenarios in the 2011-12 AMAO Manual http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=3408 11/22/2018 Oregon Department of Education

Oregon Department of Education AMAO 1 Target As part of ODE’s compliance with the final Notice of Interpretations (NOI), ODE reviewed current practices both in Oregon and across the U.S. This research has resulted in a revision to the AMAO 1 calculation and target. For 2011-12, the new target for AMAO 1 is 57%. This target will increase annually. NOI dated Oct 17, 2008.

Oregon Department of Education AMAO 1 Targets School Year Percent of LEP Students Showing Progress toward Attaining English Language Proficiency 2009- 2010 50% LEP students will move one proficiency level higher at the end of the school year which is 3% increase over baseline. 2010- 2011 53% LEP students will move one proficiency level higher at the end of the school year which is 3% increase from the previous year. 2011-2012 57% LEP students will move one proficiency level higher at the end of the school year which is 4% increase from the previous year. 2012-2013 61% LEP students will move one proficiency level higher at the end of the school year which is 4% increase from the previous year. 2013-2014 66% LEP students will move one proficiency level higher at the end of the school year which is 5% increase from the previous year. The current year’s targets are over a baseline figure that was calculated , not over the previous year,. These calculations are new and the increase is not aligned with the previous’ years results. You will notice that over the next few years there is annual percentage increase that begins at 3% and grows to 5%/ 11/22/2018 Oregon Department of Education

AMAO 1 Numerator inclusion Student must be identified as LEP/ELL in 2011-12. AND Identified as LEP in the LEP Collection for at least one of the previous three school years (2006-07, 2007-08, 2008-09, 2009-10, or 2010- 11). The student must have a valid ELPA test score for 2011-12, as well as a valid ELPA test score in any of the previous collection years where they were identified as LEP (2006-07, 2007-08, 2008-09 , 2009-10, or 2010-11). In response to the NOIs, it is required that ODE calculate a gain when we have more than one data point. ODE is defining two data points as the two most recent adjacent scores. Students who have only one ELPA score (only participated in one assessment, are permitted to be excluded from this calculation. Go to Numbered Memorandum and AMAO manual for AMAO 1 enrollment scenarios – page 20 of manual 11/22/2018 Oregon Department of Education

AMAO 1 Numerator inclusion (cont.) In order to having made a gain, a student must either: Have an average gain of 1 proficiency level per year of English language instruction since their most recent administration of ELPA; OR Scored a 5 on a previous ELPA and maintained a 5 on the 11-12 ELPA; OR Be exited by the district as ‘proficient’. Students who have not made an average gain of 1 proficiency level per year of English language instruction or maintained a 5 on ELPA or exited will not be included in the AMAO1 numerator. 11/22/2018 Oregon Department of Education

IEP Students Inclusion Rule If a LEP/ELL student has an IEP that exempts the student from all domains of ELPA, then the student is not included in the AMAO 1 numerator or the AMAO 1 denominator. This exemption is determined by the ELPA Test Administration Code E – being entered in Student Centered Staging by the District Test Coordinator. 11/22/2018 Oregon Department of Education
