School Accountability Achievement Profiles

Arizona labels schools to inform parents and the public about their performance. The School Accountability Achievement Profiles are designed to highlight the effectiveness of schools, identifying those that may be struggling. This proactive measure ensures that necessary actions can be taken to enhance student learning outcomes. By keeping the community informed, Arizona aims to foster a supportive environment for educational improvement and accountability in schools across the state.

  1. School Accountability Achievement Profiles

  2. Why does AZ label schools? Public Notice: To provide parents and the general public with information on how AZ schools are performing Accountability: To identify schools that are struggling so that action can be taken to improve student learning
  3. Changes to how AZ labels schools Presently, all AZ schools are labeled as either: Excelling Highly Performing Performing / Performing Plus Underperforming Failing This school year AZ will begin to transition to an A, B, C, D and F labeling system.
  4. Changes to how AZ labels schools Method of calculating school labels will also change: Growth Score 50% Other Achievement Data 50%
  5. Changes to how AZ labels schools Growth (50% of calculation) Measurement of how much students haveimproved during the school year (measured by AIMS scores) Places greater emphasis on the improvement of students performing in the bottom quartile Other Achievement Data (50% of calculation) Includes several elements but relies heavily on the percentage of students that pass AIMS
  6. General Explanation of the Labels (A-F)
  7. Transition To New Labels Because the method of calculating labels will change we can expect some variance between the old labels and the new. For example, a school that was labeled “excelling” under the existing system may be labeled a “B” under the new system. To give schools time to adjust to the new labels AZ law provides for a two year transition period. For the next two years schools will receive both the traditional label (excelling, highly performing, etc.) and the new label (A – F). During this time the State will enforce the traditional labels (excelling, highly performing, etc.) Beginning in 2013 AZ will only utilize the A-F labels.
