12. New Accountability Metrics A – F Transparency & Student Success

13. Goals of Updating Accountability -Ensure EVERY student counts -Generate dramatic closure of the achievement gap -Provide transparent results -Merge state and federal accountability -Utilize new tools to provide a more robust system -Engender post-secondary success for ALL students -These goals address the limitations of the old model

14. A-F The G.P.A. structure is aligned with: 90 - 25 - 90

15. Two New Models Elementary & Middle Schools –Performance & Growth High Schools –Performance & Improvement

16. Key Improvements from Old to New Simplifies designations awarded to schools (A-F) Incorporates Indiana Growth Model –Focuses on ALL students, not just the “bubble kids” Adds a Bottom 25% subgroup –Focuses on closing achievement gaps Includes College & Career Readiness

17. High School Model Weighted grades (points) are determined for: –English 10 ECA Score x 30% –Algebra I ECA Score x 30% –Graduation Rate Score x 30% –College and Career Readiness Score x 10% A final grade is determined by adding the four grades (points) together Calculating Grades

18. High School Model College & Career Readiness (25) Calculate the percentage of cohort graduates who: –Pass an AP exam –Pass an IB exam –Earn College Credits (3): Liberal Arts or CTE –Pass an Industry Certification exam

19. High School Model College & Career Readiness UNDUPLICATED COUNT OF: Grads who Passed an AP Exam ( + Grads who Passed an IB Exam Grads who Received 3 College Credits ++ Grads who Passed and Industry Certification Test ) Total Number of Graduates

20. High School Model College & Career Readiness 25.0 - 100% =4.00 points 18.4 - 24.9% =3.00 points 11.7 - 18.3% =2.00 points 05.0 - 11.6% =1.00 points 00.0 - 04.9% =0.00 points

21. What’s My Grade? IDOE developed a workbook with all of the proficiency measures and bonuses already incorporated which allows schools to simply input their achievement data and have their grade automatically calculated. Found here: http://www.doe.in.gov/improvement/accountability/f-accountability

22. What does the Report Card look like? IDOE worked with stakeholders to build sample report cards for both the Elementary/Middle and High School models. They are found here: http://www.doe.in.gov/improvement/accountability/f-accountability

23. What’s Working -AP dramatic growth and success -IB dramatic growth -Dual Credit dramatic growth -Industry Certification growth -Accuracy of AP, IB and IC data -Inclusion of these CCR components into the state’s new Accountability model

24. Challenges -Dual Credit data submissions -Articulating the Priority Dual Credit courses and the implementation thereof -Researching CCR student-level success in Indiana higher education institutions

25. Solutions -Immediate: data verification from the Commission for Higher Education -Long term: data submission from the Commission for Higher Education -Improved data system that facilitates improved research capabilities between agencies
