  5. Pieces of the Accountability Puzzle • What remains the same? • Top to Bottom ranking methodology • AYP (for 2011-2012) • What is new? • Top to Bottom methodology to determine Priority and Focus Schools • Cut scores • Educator evaluations: required for all educators • What is under development? • ESEA Flexibility—will impact AYP • Accreditation—still in approval process

  6. Challenges in this work • Time of rapid change; new initiatives • Increasing stakes • Balancing the need for complex metrics to capture school performance accurately with the need for transparency • Articulating a vision for your work/our work with the quantity of initiatives

  7. How we can help • We will tell you what we know; caveat—that may change! • We will name the places where there is still confusion • We will be an ongoing resource as you navigate this work • Accountability is not only about the “stick”—it’s also about using these metrics to diagnose, to work smarter
