1 FY2016 School Grade Rule Principals Leadership Academy Mark Howard May 17, 2016 Slides adapted from FDOE presentation Top-performing urban school district in Florida

2 New School Grades Model Reminder of Key Differences No Bonus Points or Weighting No weighted learning gains or accelerated exams No safety net preventing dropping 2 letter grades No bonus points for students passing retakes No Letter Grade Penalties No drop in letter grade if less than 50% of students in the bottom quartile make learning gains No drop in letter grade if less than 25% of their students were reading on grade level

3 FY2016 Accountability Rules Provides a focus on achievement, growth, students needing the most support and student acceleration (middle & high) Schools only graded on components with data, must have 10 or more students Each component worth 100 points

4 FY2016 Accountability Rules Must test 95% of FTE Survey 3 students (calculate for each test, then aggregate) ELL students included in Achievement after 2 years (based on DEUSS date) NEW Learning Gains Model Grades reported as percentage of points

5 FY16 School Grade Scale All Models (Elementary, Middle, High, Combination) A = 62% B = 54% - 61% C = 41% - 53% D = 32% - 40% F = 31% or less

6 School Grade Models Elementary, Middle, High, Combination

7 Elementary School Grades Model (A maximum of 7 components) English/ Language Arts Achievement Mathematics Achievement Science Achievement Learning Gains Learning Gains Learning Gains of Low 25% Learning Gains of Low 25%

8 Middle School Grades Model (A maximum of 9 components). English/ Language Arts Mathematics Science Social Studies (Civics EOC) Acceleration Success Achievement Achievement Achievement (0%to 100%) Achievement Learning Gains Learning Gains of Low 25% Learning Gains Learning Gains of Low 25% Percentage of students who pass H.S. EOCs and industry certifications

9 High School Grades Model (A maximum of 10 components English/ Language Arts Mathematics (EOCs) Science (Biology EOC) Social Studies (US History EOC) Graduation Rate Acceleration Success Achievement Learning Gains Learning Gains of Low 25% Achievement Learning Gains Learning Gains of Low 25% Achievement Achievement Federal 4-year Graduation Rate Percent of graduates who are eligible to earn college credit through passing AP, IB, or AICE exams; passing dual enrollment courses; or earning an industry certification

11 Subject Areas Included for Achievement Percentage of Full-Year-Enrolled Students who scored Level 3+ SUBJECT GRADES ASSESSMENT English Language Arts Grades 3-10 FSA, FSAA Mathematics Grades 3-8 Algebra 1, Geometry Algebra 2* Science Grades 5 and 8 Biology 1 Social Studies Civics* US History* FSA, FSAA FSA,FSAA EOC FSA EOC FCAT, FSAA FSA EOC, FSAA EOC FSA EOC FSA EOC Note: For EOCs a student must be enrolled in the course to be counted in achievement. *FSAA Algebra 2, Civics and US History to be introduced in FY17.

12 Learning Gains Model Beginning in FY2016

13 New Learning Gains Model F.S New model requires growth toward achievement levels 3, 4, and 5 is demonstrated by students who scored below each of those levels in the prior year. Reflect What does this mean for students scoring at levels 1 and 2? What does this mean for students scoring at levels 3 and 4? What does this mean for retained students? What does this mean for students testing above grade level?

14 Learning Gains Model The line below represents a student growth pattern consistent with the statute and the approved rule. 260 Student scoring mid Level 1 in Grade 3 and earning a learning gain each year. 240 Level 3 Level 3 Level Level 3 Level 3 Level 3 Level 2 Level 3 Level 2 Level 2 Level 2 Level Level 3 Level 2 Level Level Grade 3 Grade 4 Grade 5 Grade 6 Grade 7 Grade 8 Grade 9 Grade 10

15 Comparison of Learning Gains Old Method Improve one or more levels from one year to the next (e.g., move from Level 1 to Level 2; Level 2 to Level 4, etc.) LEVEL 1 & 2 For students who remain in Level 1 or 2, demonstrate a specified scale gain LEVEL 3 & 4 Maintain a Level 3, Level 4, or Level 5 from one year to the next New Method No change Split Levels 1 & 2 into sub-sections Level 1 into thirds Level 2 in half Then, require student to improve from section to section within Level (e.g., move from the bottom third of Level 1 to the middle third of Level 1) Level 3 & Level 4, in addition to maintaining the level, student scale score must improve

16 FSA Reading, Math/EOC Learning Gains All Levels: Increase 1+ Level Level 5: Remain Level 5 Level 4: Maintain level and improve 1 or more points Level 3: Maintain level and improve 1 or more points Level 2: Move from sub-level to higher sub-level Level 1: Move from sub-level to higher sub-level Remain Level 5 Maintain +1 Pt Maintain +1 Pt FSA Achievement Levels L5 L4 L3 L2 L1

17 English Language Arts Learning Gains Scale Grade Level 1 Level 2 Level 1 Low Middle High Level 2 Low High Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 Grade Grade Grade Grade Grade Grade Grade Grade

18 Mathematics Learning Gains Scale Grade Level 1 Level 2 Level 1 Low Middle High Level 2 Low High Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 Grade Grade Grade Grade Grade Grade End-of-Course Assessments Grade Level 1 Level 2 Level 1 Low Middle High Level 2 Low High Level 3 Level 4 Level 5 Algebra Geometry Algebra

19 Lowest 25% Learning Gains Applies same Learning Gains methodology to the Lowest 25% To determine the Lowest 25% Use the scale score performance of students in the prior year at each grade level to identify the lowest 25% of students (EOCs not by grade level) Lowest 25% is no longer limited to students in Achievement Levels 1 and 2 Calculated for both ELA and Mathematics

30 Next Steps

31 How do you utilize people, time and money to get results? Accountability Data Corrections Review Master Boards, Enrollment and Ind. Certs. for Current Year Practices Plan for Master Boards and Course Registration for Success Next Year

32 Accountability Data Corrections 1. Student Data Updates (EOC Course Withdraw) 2. Prior Year Data Corrections 3. College and Career Acceleration District makes corrections first Schools notified to review, verify and update as needed Short turn-around
