  3. Groups • Subgroups • Black • Hispanic • Special Education • English Language Learner • Free/Reduced Price Lunch • Subjects • Mathematics • Reading • Writing* • Science (5, 8, 10) • *Skills Checklist • Communication = Writing

  4. Types of Indicators • Subject-IPI – The transformation of a valid achievement level in a particular subject • CMT & CAPT : {100, 67, 33, 0} • MAS & Skills Checklist: {100, 50, 0} • Subject-SPI – The mean of subject-IPIs for a school (goes across grades) • IPI – The mean of a student’s subject-IPIs • SPI/DIP – The mean of a school’s/district’s IPIs

  5. The 3% Cap • The target is Goal and is applied by subject • 1% of Skills Checklist Users • 2% of MAS Users • A combination of these not to exceed 3% • The overage, selected numerically by SASID, is converted from a 100 to a 0. • Developing a monitoring system to flag over-use.

  6. Who is initially included? • SPI – Students who have been in the school since October 1 • DPI – Students who have been in the district since October 1 • Includes the Since-Oct 1 Outplaced Students • Includes the Since-Oct 1 Program Students

  7. Absent • Students who are absent from a test are… • …not included in the achievement calculation • …included in the participation calculation as non-participants (in the denominator, but not the numerator)

  8. Special Education Flexibility • Enrollment in Special Education (has an IEP) is an indicator that is collected as part of the testing file • Students currently enrolled as Special Education students and students who had been enrolled as Special Education as indicated on the testing files from either of the two previous years in the same district are included as members of the Special Education Subgroup

  9. ELL Flexibility • Enrollment as an English Language Learner is an indicator that is collected as part of the testing file • Students currently enrolled as ELL students and students who had been enrolled as ELL students as indicated on the testing files from either of the two previous years in the same district are included as members of the ELL Subgroup

  10. ELL Exempt • ELL Exempt students who take the Mathematics test are… • … not included in the achievement calculation in Math • … included as part of the participation calculation in Math as participants • This exemption is applied to the Reading, Writing, and Science Tests

  11. Medically Exempt • Students who are medically exempt for a subject test are … • … not included in an achievement calculation • … not included in the participation calculation

  12. Left Blank • Left Blank is a designation given by a proctor (i.e. marked on the physical test form) who administers a subject test to a student • Left Blank subject tests are … • …included in the achievement calculation as Below Basic • …included as participants

  13. Void • Tests are voided when something unexpected happens. There are very few of these, say, under 5 a year. • Students who have a subject test that is voided are… • … not included in the achievement calculation • … included in the participation calculation

  18. Achievement Calculation • Valid test scores are included in the subject-SPIs – the average of subject-IPIs • The average of IPIs (transformations of valid test scores) is used to calculate an IPI • The average of a school’s worth of IPIs is the SPI • The average of a district’s worth of IPIs is the DPI

  19. Participation Calculation • Subject participation (of participation-included students) is the ratio of non-absent to total. • SPI and DPI participation rates (of participation-included students) are the ratio of the number of students with at least one valid test score to total. • SPI and DPI participation rates are higher than subject participation rates
