Implications for schools, districts and the state • Cohort information is different than status • Some districts and schools need to start looking at Goal • Closing the achievement gap requires accelerating the learning of sub-groups • Vertical Scale Analysis • The assessment and accountability system will be changing • Schools and districts need to mine their own data
