Title: School Improvement and Restructuring under Differentiated Accountability


1
School Improvement and Restructuring under
Differentiated Accountability
  • Lake County
  • Cheryl L. Sattler, Ph.D
  • Ethica, LLC

2
No Child Left Behind
  • Passed 2001, law 2002
  • Due for renewal 2007
  • Renewal (reauthorization) timing uncertain
  • New regulations coming in November
  • Lots of changes - pilots

3
School In Need of Improvement Status
  • Under NCLB, only Title I schools are SINI
  • REQUIREMENTS
  • School receives Title I-A funds for 2 years
  • School fails to make AYP for EACH of those 2
    years
  • If School receives Title I-A funds the next year,
    it is a school in need of improvement
  • EXAMPLE
  • 2004-2005 Title I-A No AYP
  • 2005-2006 Title I-A No AYP
  • 2006-2007 Title I-A ?School in Need of
    Improvement, Year 1 (SINI-1)

4
Under Differentiated Accountability
  • All schools must make AYP
  • Only Title I schools are still SINI
  • Both Title I and non-Title I schools are graded
  • Accountability applies to all schools

5
Core of NCLB Title I
  • Testing
  • Grades 2-8, plus 1 high school grade
  • Reading, Math, Science
  • Florida adds Writing
  • Accountability (Adequate Yearly Progress)
  • School and District Improvement

6
Schools in Need of Improvement
  • SINI 1 2 years of no AYP
  • SINI 2 3 years of no AYP
  • Corrective Action
  • SINI 3 4 years of no AYP
  • Planning for Restructuring
  • SINI 4 5 years of no AYP
  • Restructuring
  • SINI 5 6 years of no AYP
  • SINI 6

7
When is SINI Status Calculated?
  • After FCAT
  • Status takes effect DAY 1 of NEXT school year
  • Example Dolphin Elementary is a SINI-3 this
    school year (2006-07). If it fails to make AYP
    based on 2006-07 FCAT scores, it will become a
    SINI-4.

8
Holding Pattern
  • If a SINI makes AYP for ONE year, it stays at the
    same level.

9
Exiting SINI
  • If a SINI makes AYP for TWO consecutive years, it
    exits improvement status.

Floridas AYP Benchmarks
Year Reading Math
2007-2008 58 62
2008-2009 65 68
2009-2010 72 74
2010-2011 79 80
2011-2012 86 86
2012-2013 93 93
2013-2014 100 100
11
Interpreting Benchmarks
  • Percentage of students at or above grade level
    across the whole school
  • Levels 3 and above
  • For this past FCAT, school needed to have 58 of
    students at level 3 or above for reading 62 for
    math
  • All students
  • Each subgroup (Econ. Disadvantaged, SWD, LEP,
    etc.)

12
WritingThe Exception
  • Not an absolute benchmark
  • 1 improvement from prior year

13
Science
  • Not included in AYP

14
3 Ways to Make AYP
  • Straight Math - Meet all benchmarks for all
    subgroups
  • Safe Harbor
  • Reduce non-proficient by 10
  • Growth Model
  • Percent of students on track within 3 years

15
School Report Cards
  • Overall AYP Report
  • http//schoolgrades.fldoe.org
  • Detailed Report Key to planning
  • Scores for each subgroup
  • Other indicators
  • Safe Harbor, if applicable
  • Growth Model, if applicable

16
Example Clermont Elementary
  • Made AYP in reading for all students
  • Missed AYP for Hispanic students by 7 points (51
    vs. 58)
  • Most important statistic 49 NOT proficient
    (100-5149)
  • If increase proficiency by 4.9 in next year,
    will make safe harbor.

17
SINI Status
  • Not included on School Report Card

18
New in 2008-2009 Differentiated Accountability
  • Combines Federal and State accountability
  • Distinguishes between schools with minor and
    major problems
