  10. School Outcomes • Improved Academic Achievement • Graduation Rate • Dropout Rate • Promotion Rate • Non-promotion Rate • Average Daily Attendance • Program Participation Prior to Kindergarten • Post Secondary Plans • Class Size • Safe Schools

  11. Program Effectiveness • Student Learning Gains by Subject • Title I Basic, Migrant, Neglected/Delinquent, Homeless • ELL (formerly LEP) • ESE • Pre-Kindergarten • Reading and Mathematics Intervention • DJJ

  12. Student Data • Demographics • Contact Information • Grades • Attendance • Report Cards • Transcripts • Disciplinary History • Immunization • FRL • Special Area Program Status (ESE, ELL, Title I, Migrant, Reading/Math Intervention) • Test Data

  13. Staff Data • Class Size • Salary • Experience • Education • Courses • Highly Qualified • Certification • Exemption from public reporting
