Program Reviews 2013-2014 Getting started
What you will submit in 2013-2014 All schools will submit and be accountable for these program reviews: • A&H • PL/CS • Writing • K-3 (elementary)
In Depth Review • In-depth reviews will be completed on a rotating basis. At a minimum, schools will conduct an in-depth review of at least one program area of their choosing each year and submit the ratings in ASSIST, ensuring all program areas (arts/humanities, Practical Living/Career Studies, writing, and K-3) will receive an in-depth review on a three- (3) to four- (4) year cycle. For program areas not selected for an in-depth review in a given year, schools are required to continue with the program area improvements identified by previous years’ data/ratings. • From Terry Holiday’s Fast Five Aug. 27 2012
The Purpose of the Program Review Process • To provide for careful and systematic analysis of current programs and help identify the next steps that will make the most impact on student learning. • To inform the school’s programs in order to establish a process of on-going discussion, reflection and growth. • To provide a basis for developing a plan for improvement which may become a component in the Comprehensive School Improvement Plan.
Goals of Program Reviews • To improve the quality of teaching and learning for all students in all programs • To allow equal access to all students to the skills that will assist them in being productive citizens • To allow students to demonstrate their understanding beyond a paper-and-pencil test • To ensure a school wide natural integration of the program skills across all contents, beyond the program areas

Program Review Accountability They count this year!
Program Review –Accountability Score • 1. Assign a value for each selected performance level: • Distinguished = 3 points • Proficient = 2 points • Needs Improvement = 1 point • 2. For each of the 4 Standards, average the characteristic scores.
Program Review –Accountability Score 3. Next, addthe 4 standard scores, • This will range between 0-12 for each Program Review (8 total is considered Proficient and 10.8 is considered Distinguished) 4. Add the Program Review Scores • You will get a number between 0-36 5. Divide this number by 24 (since this is considered Proficient in all three areas). This number would give you the percent of the 23 points (number of points possible in accountability model for Program Reviews for 2013)
A&H + PLCS + Writing = X • X / 24 = percent of 23 points • Percent of 23 points X 23 = program review baseline points
will tell each school what it needs in order to be labeled Needs Improvement, Proficient, or Distinguished in 2014.
Meet your AMO with growth in Program Review and/or Next Generation Learners.
Example • In 2012-2013, Sunnyside Elementary set their program review baseline at 18.21 points out of a possible 23. • That gives them 4.79 points of growth to meet subsequent AMOs. • Their AMO for 2013-2014 is one point. • They feel that they might have a slight drop this year in Next Generation Learners because of staffing issues and other issues. • Their target in program reviews for this year is an increase of 1.5 points to 19.71.
Relative weights of characteristics in Writing program review
The bottom line is student achievement. • Review 2012-2013 program review scores. • Set your target score for 2013-2014. • Review 2012-2013 Next Steps Diagnostic. • Refine next steps using the program review calculator to meet your target score keeping in mind the weights of the various standards. • Create an implementation plan.
Evidence • It is only necessary for the school to identify evidence. There is no expectation that it be collected or stored over long periods of time. Because evidence is a natural product of existing activity within the school, it should be easily retrievable when needed.
For a given demonstrator • Evidence from multiple (two or three) grade levels/subject areas should be identified. • confirms that the characteristics within a demonstrator occur on an ongoing basis throughout the school year.
Ways of documentingevidence • Administrative Walk-Through (Using the Evidence Index) • Embedded PD • Staff meetings • Committees • Other

JCPS District Audit (KDE Requirement) • 2 checklists or progress reports, due in October and March which must be signed by the Principal at each school. • Administrative Peer Review in May of “In Depth” review. • Central office review and “approval” to KDE.
