  1. Wisconsin’s School Report Cards October 2012

  2. Agenda 2017 Standards & Instruction • What and how should kids learn? Assessments and Data Systems • How do we know if they learned it? School and Educator Effectiveness • How do we ensure that students have highly effective teachers and schools? School Finance Reform • How should we pay for schools?

  3. Accountability Index • A comprehensive accountability index has replaced the AYP pass-fail system. AYP reports are gone; accountability reporting will now be done with School Report Cards (2011-12). • The index is a composite of sub-scales that measure performance across four priority areas : • Student Achievement • Student Growth • Closing Gaps • On-track to Graduation/Postsecondary Readiness • Student Engagement indicators, if missed, result in 5 point deduction • Test Participation Rate • Absenteeism Rate • Dropout Rate • The index score is on a 0–100 scale. Sub-scale scores as well as the index score will be reported to enhance transparency and differentiation.

  4. Accountability Ratings • The index score will place schools into one of five rating levels: • Significantly Exceeds Expectations • Exceeds Expectations • Meets Expectations • Meets Few Expectations • Fails to Meet Expectations • These ratings serve as the new accountability determinations and determine level of support.

  5. School Report Cards • School Report Cards provide each school’s overall score, priority area scores, and student engagement indicator performance. They also include WSAS performance over the last five years. • School Report Card Detail packets provide more information related to the accountability calculations as well as additional data to inform local conversations and school improvement efforts. • An Interpretive Guide is meant to provide information about the Report Cards. • A Technical Guide will help users interested in the specific details of index calculations.

  6. State and Federal Accountability • The report cards: • Replace AYP reports • Serve as the primary reporting tool for the state accountability system • Will be issued annually • Are in addition to Title I identifications (Priority and Focus), which are federally required cohorts (every four years)

  7. Summary Points • The report cards reflect a better, more comprehensive way of measuring schools’ effectiveness in helping students graduate ready for college and career. • The accountability index is based on multiple factors: student achievement on WSAS and the ACT, growth in student achievement, progress in closing achievement gaps, student progress toward postsecondary readiness, graduation rates, and attendance. • The report cards provide valuable guidance on how our schools are doing and where to improve. In combination with other school data, they can help schools plan and evaluate their improvement efforts. • The DPI will explore including more measures of college- and career-readiness in the index calculations in the future.
