1 NESTLE EL 2011 AGT School Report This report provides 2011 Academic Growth over Time (AGT) data. The results reported here measure your school's impact on the academic growth of at both the school and grade levels for California Standards Tests (CST) tested subjects. In addition to the overall results, AGT Estimates are also provided for specific groups of. For each student group, the AGT Estimate compares the actual achievement of in your school to the predicted achievement of those. All AGT results account for prior CST scores. A number of demographic variables are also included in the calculation to ensure the results regarding your school's impact are as fair and accurate as possible. For more information on the demographic variables, please refer to the last page of this report.

10 NESTLE EL Achievement Results This achievement information is being included on the Academic Growth over Time (AGT) report because in LAUSD, we will be considering the power of two measures: achievement (Academic Performance Index (API) and Percent Proficient/Advanced) and growth (AGT). Achievement levels provide a snapshot of how performed relative to state goals. AGT results provide an indicator of the impact of schools and educators in moving toward these goals. Employing the multiple measures approach provides a more complete picture of the student learning environment. Both AGT and API results will be available on the 2011 School Report Card. Below, as a reference, we provide some key achievement results: API and percentages of proficient/advanced. Academic Performance Index (API) API is a score California gives each school based on student test scores. 800 is the target API score; 1000 is the maximum. API SCORE 2011 Base API 869 Growth Points Growth API 886 Percent Proficient and Advanced Students in grade 2-11 are tested annually to assess their achievement of state content standards. CST scores fall into 1 of 5 performance levels. The state's goal is for all to score proficient or advanced, the top two performance levels. The charts below show how your compare to the LAUSD average, both at the school-level and for all grade levels for which AGT data is available.

11 NESTLE EL Additional Information on AGT Differences Between Specific Groups of Students Readers may want to compare two student groups. For example, let's say you see the following on your report: In this case, it is not necessarily true that in the "Below Basic/Far Below Basic" grouping grew more than in the "Advanced/Proficient" grouping. Instead the table above indicates that your "Below Basic/Far Below Basic" grew more, on average, than similar "Below Basic/Far Below Basic" from across the LAUSD. Your "Advanced/Proficient" grew, on average, about the same as similar, "Advanced/Proficient" from across the LAUSD. Prior Achievement Level for Student Groups The prior achievement level groupings in this report are "Advanced/Proficient," "Basic" and "Below Basic/Far Below Basic." These groups are based on the student's CST performance level from the previous year. The purpose of this calculation is to measure the impact of teachers on from across the achievement spectrum. Control Variables Used in the AGT Model The AGT Model uses statistical techniques to separate the impact of schooling from other factors that may influence growth; the following variables are controlled for in the AGT Model: 1. Prior CST scores 4. Race/Ethnicity 7. SPED Status 2. Grade Level 5. Low-Income Status 8. Continuous Enrollment 3. Gender 6. ELL Status 9. Homelessness It is important to note that controlling for demographic characteristics does not mean a lowering of expectations for any grouping of addressed by a control variable.

Insufficient Data or NA Results may not be provided for the following reasons: Too few to calculate a result (less than 11). Too few in the contrasting category to calculate a result. A grade level or subject was not taught during the given time period. Only one teacher taught that grade or subject during the given period. No district-wide differential effect between student groups. 11
