Star Rating Part 2Growth, Graduation Rates and College and Career Readiness

Student Growth Model

• Mathematical Model• Developed by Dr. Damian Betebenner• Used by over 30 States, including Idaho

PROVIDED BY THE IDAHO STATE DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

SY1415 Growth Model Update

• Biennial Student Growth will be calculated for Individual Reporting Purposes Only• ISAT Reading scores will be mapped to new ISAT

(Smarter Balanced) ELA scores• Significant Correlation of 0.93 between ISAT

Reading and Language Usage• Some states have always calculated biennial growth

(i.e. between 8th and 10th)


Student Growth Percentile Model

Percentile Rank = 75th This student’s grade 4 score is at or

above 75 percent of his academic peers.

Percentile Rank = 42nd This student’s grade 4 score is at

or above 42 percent of his academic peers.

Grade 5 Score Grade 5 Score

What is the percentile rank of a studentcompared to students with similar score histories?

Grade 3 Score

• A Student must have:• SY1415 Scale Score• SY1213 Core Score• One Score per Subject• Combination of the performance task (PT)

and computer adaptive test (CAT) for Math and ELA

• Advanced in grade level as expected• Unduplicated EDUID


To Calculate SGP

SY1415 Growth Model Update (Cont.)

• Adequate Growth Percentile (AGP) cannot be calculated⁻ In order to make growth predictions, we

first need to understand the probability distribution and growth toward proficiency

• Neither SGP nor AGP will be used to determine SY1516 School Improvement Status


How to Read a Student Growth Report

Example

Proficiency Levels

Years

Grade

Decrease in Achievement Level with Constant High Growth

ISAT New ISAT (Smarter Balanced)

Data Flow

Vendor

• Send ISAT Data Back to SDE

SDE

• Load and Match Testing Data to Student Demographic Data in CORE

SDE

• Calculate SGP

SDE

• Generate Individual Student Growth Reports

SDE

• Post the Scores and Reports on SchoolNet


Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate

Cohort Graduation Rate

• 34 C.F.R §200.19 amended on October 2008• The regulations require a four-year cohort

graduation rate, disaggregated by subgroups, to be:• Reported in Report Card; and• Used in making school determinations

• SDE received an extension from US Dept. of Education to report the rate for the Class of 2013-2014.


• Four-Year Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate:

• The number of students who graduate in four years with a regular high school diploma divided by the number of students who entered high school four years earlier

• Adjusting for transfers in and out, those students who emigrate, or are deceased


Definition

• A Student must have:• Correct Exit Date• Correct Exit Code• Initial Enrollment Date and Grade of• 9th grade in 2010/2011;• 10th grade in 2011/2012;• 11th grade in 2012/2013; or• 12th grade in 2013/2014

• Unduplicated EDUID


To Be Regular Graduates from the SY1314 Cohort

Data Flow

LEA

• Load Student Data into ISEE from SIS

SDE

• Load the Student Data into the Graduation Rate Appeals Site

LEA

• Appeal Exit Data

SDE

• Calculate Cohort Graduation Rates

SDE

• Post the Rates on the Report Card

• Misreported exit reason and/or exit dates for district cohort seniors: Proper coding for cohort seniors who have graduated are 4A-Regular Graduate or 4F- Alternative Route Regular Graduate. • For Example: If cohort seniors are coded as 1A – Same

School – indicating that the student will return in the fall, it will dramatically affect the district’s graduation rate

• Duplicate EDUID • For Example: Students may not be counted in the current

cohort’s graduation rate calculations if they have duplicate EDUIDs


Common Issues


Advanced Opportunities

Advanced Opportunities• Advanced Opportunities data for all juniors and seniors received

from districts are populated through ISEE.• Enrollment data are populated through the May ISEE upload.• Each student is only counted once, and each student’s best score

and course name/number attached are used.• Students who receive a “Pass” in a Tech Prep “Pass/Fail” course are

considered to have received a “C or better.”• Non-diploma seeking foreign exchange students are exempted from

Advanced Opportunities through appeals.• The order of importance once all scores have been submitted:

1. AP (if no passing score, move to next test);2. Dual Credit (if no passing score, move to next test);3. IB (if no passing score, move to next test);4. Tech Prep


Data Flow

LEA

• Load Student Data and Course Data into ISEE from SIS

SDE

• Load the Data into the Appeals Site

LEA

• Appeal Continuous Enrollment Status

SDE

• Calculate using courses with C or better

SDE

• Post on the Report Card


College Entrance/Placement Exam

SAT Data Flow

LEA

• High Schools Fill In Student Information Online When Registering Students.

Vendor

• The College Board sends the SDE a File with Student Scores

SDE

• SDE uploads scores into Core, SchoolNet, and Appeals Site

LEA

• Appeal Continuous Enrollment Status

SDE

• Post the Scores and Participation Rates on the Report Card

ACT, COMPASS and ACCUPLACER

• ACT, COMPASS and ACCUPLACER Placement• ISEE Inclusion Options • Monthly Uploads – Test File• Accountability Appeals Window
