2 Valley Park School District Assessment Plan Introduction The purpose of assessment in the Valley Park School District is to obtain information that will enhance learning and assess student growth. Assessment data for an individual student provides a means for parents, teachers, and counselors to monitor learning, plan for academic needs, and work cooperatively with the student to make personal and educational choices. Assessment results are used for decision making in three areas of teaching and learning: instruction, guidance/ counseling, and screening/ selection for certain programs/ services. Group assessment data serves as a vehicle for addressing specific strength or weakness in curriculum and classroom instruction. It is also a guide for decision making impacting instructional practices/ programs, the setting of priorities, allocation of resources, and staff development. Annually, the Valley Park School Board and Staff will analyze individual, grade level, and subject area data, as well as disaggregated assessment data of various student sub groups, to determine the effectiveness of Valley Park s educational program. Our Assessment Plan is based on the guidelines developed by the Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. A committee consisting of the Assistant Superintendent, Building level Administrators, Guidance Counselors, Teachers, Early Childhood Teachers, Special Education Teachers, Reading Specialist, Gifted Specialist, and School Nurse all contributed to the information. This document is approved annually by the Board of Education, and provides guidance to district personnel regarding all aspects of the Valley Park School District Assessment Plan

9 Guidelines for Including Students with Disabilities All staff will participate in Professional Development offered by the special education staff on topics such as, recognizing children with special needs, utilizing alternative intervention strategies, the referral process, and dealing with children with special needs in the classroom. When a data team believes that a student may be eligible for special education services, the team will make a referral directly to the building guidance counselor. Individual problem solving sessions will be scheduled. If necessary, the guidance counselors will in turn initiate and monitor the completion of a referral packet to Special School District. Classroom teachers and data teams will participate in the referral packet completion by providing the appropriate documentation collected as a result of observation and utilization of intervention strategies. Special School District personnel will evaluate the student s eligibility through use of assessments, and Valley Park School District personnel will attend post-evaluation conferences and Individual Education Plan (IEP) conferences. Valley Park School District personnel will collaborate with Special School District personnel in implementing a student s IEP. Individual students with disabilities will participate in assessments administered by the district as indicated by the student s IEP or 504 plan with appropriate accommodations. Accommodations will be designed to provide all students with an equal opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned. Accommodation procedures include adjustments in the assessment setting, item presentation, student response methods, as well as, timing of the assessment. Decisions regarding accommodations or non-participation in specific types of assessments will be made on an annual basis by the IEP team and will not be based on program settings, category of disability, or percentage of time in a particular placement or classroom. The school staff should expect that all students, including those with disabilities, will participate in the MAP and other district-wide assessments. After consideration of the student s instructional goals, curriculum, current level of functioning, skills, and learning characteristics, if the IEP team determines that a student should not participate in MAP, then the student will complete the MAP-A. Provisions for Teaching Test- Taking Skills Classroom teachers will provide students with regular instruction in test-taking skills and provide students with opportunities to practice responding to multiple choice and constructed response questions, as well as performance events. Classroom teachers will also provide feedback regarding student performance following practice opportunities. Preparing students to participate in state and national assessments will be the responsibility of all classroom teachers. School faculties will develop strategies for improving student performance on state and national assessments on an annual basis

10 Test Security Storage and Access Before Test Instructions for Administration All Missouri assessment documents and other standardized test booklets and/or test log in tickets are to be stored, immediately upon receipt, in a secured area. The District Testing Coordinator and the School Test Coordinator will view all training videos and read all appropriate manuals prior to the testing window. School Test Coordinators will assure that students are successfully entered into the testing program. School Test Coordinators will print test log on tickets prior to testing and keep them in a secure area. Teachers will have access to the appropriate documents, including the Test Administration Manual. Prior to the first day of any standardized testing, all staff involved in test administration will be required to participate in Professional Development, led by the school testing coordinators, regarding testing procedures. The Professional Development will stress the importance of test security during test administration. Security issues addressed will include handling materials in a secure manner, providing directions to students, responding to students questions, and monitoring the test setting. Test Administration All standardized tests will be administered in an appropriate manner in compliance with testing guidelines. Students will be encouraged to use restroom facilities, get drinks, etc., before starting to take the test. All individuals administering tests will strictly follow the procedures outlined in the test administration manual. Test administrators will not leave the testing room while the test is being given. While the test is being given, building administrators and other designated individuals may transition between classrooms to help monitor administration and to provide assistance as needed

11 Sanctions Against Unfair Practices The test security measures outlined in this document should help prevent unfair practices; however, should unfair practices occur; the sanctions specified in this section will be put into motion. Following is a list of unfair practices, which this district considers inappropriate. a. Copying or taking pictures of any part of a standardized test for any reason. b. Removal of log in tickets from the secure storage area except during test administration. c. Directly teaching any test item included on a standardized test. d. Altering a student s responses to items. e. Indications to students during testing that they have answered items incorrectly and need to change them; giving students clues or answers to questions; allowing students to give each other answers to questions or to copy each other s work; or altering test administration procedures in any way to give students an advantage. f. Undue pressure or encouragement on the part of administrators for teachers to engage in any of the aforementioned inappropriate or unfair practices. If a district staff person is suspected of engaging in any of the aforementioned unfair practices, then an immediate investigation will occur. If allegations are proven, a report will be forwarded to the superintendent and appropriate disciplinary action will be taken
