  1. Michigan Public Schools Beating the Odds 2010-2011 School Year Eastern Upper Peninsula ISD Highlighted

  2. Identifying Schools Beating the Odds • Ran the two separate studies of schools Beating the Odds using considerably different methodologies • Schools performing above their predicted levels based on risk factors • Percent economically disadvantaged • Percent students with disabilities • Percent English language learners • Percent minority • Schools performing above a comparison group of the most demographically similar schools in the state • Identified schools as beating the odds for this presentation only if they were identified in both studies as beating the odds • Provides a strong basis for concluding that these schools are indeed beating the odds

  3. Combined Results of Study #1 and Study #2 • Study #1 • 66 schools identified • Study #2 • 92 schools identified • Combined • 24 schools identified by both studies • These 24 schools represent schools that both… • Outperformed their predicted outcomes • Outperformed each of the 30 most demographically similar schools in the state

  4. Study #1: Performing Above Predicted Levels

  5. Study #2: Performing Above Similar Schools

  6. Schools Identified in Both Studies

  7. Building a Toolbox: What do BTO Schools Report As “Keys to Success” Innovative ways to structure time (schedules, PD time) and create collaborative time. Not only working harder, but working smarter AND harder. Collaboration, strategic focus, targeted work, use of data. Cohesive and focused system instead of a set of disconnected initiatives. Creating safe environments; learning cannot happen when behavior is poor. Differentiated, targeted instruction; tiered supports; Response to Intervention

  8. Building a Toolbox: What do BTO Schools Report As “Keys to Success” Technology: tools for instruction (smart boards, homework sites, calculation tools, laptops/Netbooks) Supportive and engaged school boards ISD provides good supports AND school/district take advantage of those supports. Truly integrated and regular use of data to diagnose and monitor progress. High expectations for students, staff, parents, leadership

  9. Eastern UP ISD BTO Schools

  10. EUP ISD BTO Example: Drummond Island Elementary School was identified as being the top performer in its “cluster” of similar schools and also outperformed its predicted outcome (thus identified in both studies). BTO Lookup Tool 2011 TTB Lookup Tool

  11. How to leverage BTO schools Identify your school and cluster using the 2011 BTO Lookup tool. Identify the highest-performing schools in those clusters; investigate what they do. Utilize the 2011 TTB Lookup tool to understand your own school’s data and results. Watch for statewide events where BTO Best Practices are highlighted.
