  12. 2009-10 Academic Excellence Indicator System (AEIS)

  13. Changes to 2009-10 AEIS • TAKS (Accommodated ) • TAKS 2011 Preview • TAKS Commended 2011 Preview • 4-Year Completion Rate • 5-Year Completion Rate

  14. Changes to 2009-10 AEIS (cont.) • TAKS (Accommodated): The 2010 accountability system includes performance on TAKS (Accommodated) assessments for all grades and subjects. The prior year (2009) results were recalculated to include all TAKS (Accommodated) performance. This affects all TAKS indicators, for most subjects and grades. • TAKS by grade: • TAKS Met 2010 Standard with TPM (Sum of All Grades Tested) • TAKS Commended Performance (Sum of All Grades Tested) • Progress of Prior-Year TAKS Failers • Student Success Initiative • English Language Learners Progress Indicator • Texas Success Initiative

  15. Changes to 2009-10 AEIS (cont.) • TAKS 2011 Preview: This indicator presents 2010 and 2009 performance built to reflect the changes that will be implemented for the TAKS base indicator in 2011. These are: a) the inclusion of all TAKS-M results; b) the inclusion of all TAKS-Alt results; and c) use of TAKS-M results for the second administration of reading and mathematics in grades 5 and 8.

  16. Changes to 2009-10 AEIS (cont.) • TAKS Commended 2011 Preview: This new indicator presents 2010 and 2009 performance of students who met the commended performance on reading/ELA and mathematics. It includes all TAKS-M and TAKS-Alt results. It has been added because commended performance on TAKS reading and mathematics will be evaluated in 2011 as a requirement for a Recognized or Exemplary rating.

  17. Changes to 2009-10 AEIS (cont.) • 5-Year Completion Rate: This is a new indicator. The 5-year completion rate for the class of 2008 is the percentage of students from a class of beginning 9th graders (from 2004-05) who graduated, received a GED, continued in high school, or dropped out within 5 years or by August 31, 2009. The methodology used to calculate 5-year rates is similar to the methodology used to calculate 4-year rates, with the exception that students are tracked for an additional year.

  19. Preview of 2011 Standard Accountability Procedures and Indicators

  20. Standard Accountability Decisions for 2011 TAKS Indicator Numbers in bold indicate a change from the prior year.

  21. Standard Accountability Decisions for 2011 (cont.)

  22. Standard Accountability Decisions for 2011 (cont.) Completion Rate I, Annual Dropout Rate, and Underreported Students

  23. Standard Accountability Decisions for 2011 • Commended Performance Indicator Requirements • In 2011, Commended Performance on TAKS reading/ELA and mathematics will be an additional indicator. • Recognized Standard. 15% commended on Reading/ELA, and • 15% commended on mathematics • Exemplary Standard. 25% commended on Reading/ELA, and • 25% commended on mathematics

  24. Standard Accountability Decisions for 2011 • Commended Performance Indicator Requirements (cont.) • Student Groups. All Students (regardless of size) • Economically Disadvantaged • (if minimum size criteria met) • RI and Exceptions. Neither RI nor Exceptions can be used with Commended Performance to attain a higher rating.

  25. Standard Accountability Decisions for 2011 • Use of Texas Projection Measure (TPM) in 2011 • As stated in a July 8, 2010 letter from the commissioner to all district superintendents, proposals to be considered regarding the use of TPM in 2011 accountability include: • Suspension of the use of TPM for accountability ratings. • Continued use of TPM in state accountability, but only for districts that elect to use it.

  26. Standard Accountability Decisions for 2011 • Use of Texas Projection Measure (TPM) in 2011 • Modifications to the calculation of TPM and/or its use to include additional safeguards, such as: • applying performance floors, • counting each student who fails but is projected to pass as a fraction of a passer, • prohibiting TPM to be used for the same measure in a subsequent year, • limiting the number of measures for which TPM can be used in a given year, and • limiting which rating categories can use it.

  27. English Language Learners (ELL) Progress Indicator

  28. English Language Learners (ELL) Progress Indicator • Standard Procedures for 2011 • The ELL Progress indicator standard is 60%. • It is evaluated only for Recognized and Exemplary ratings. • Only All Students are evaluated if meets minimum size • of 30 students. • Required Improvement (RI) and the Exception Provision will be applied

  29. English Language Learners (ELL) Progress Indicator • AEA Procedures for 2011 • The ELL Progress indicator standard is 55%. • Required Improvement (RI) is calculated. • The All Students group is evaluated if the minimum size requirement is met. • The ELL Progress indicator cannot be the sole reason for an AEA: Academically Unacceptable rating.

  30. English Language Learners (ELL) Progress Indicator • 2011 Preview of ELL Progress Indicator shown on 2009-10 AEIS Reports. • Campus column correlates to ‘All Students’ data to be evaluated if minimum size criteria are met (30 students). • An FAQ on this indicator will be published online by December 2, 2010. • See 2008-09 AEIS Glossary, including Appendix H until 2009-10 Glossary and FAQ are available.

  31. Preview of 2011 AEA Procedures and Indicators

  32. 2011 Registered AECs • The list of 2011 Registered AECs is available on the AEA website at http://ritter.tea.state.tx.us/aea/. • Each registered AEC must meet the 75% at-risk registration criterion in order to receive an AEA rating on July 29, 2011.

  33. At-Risk Registration Criterion • In April 2011, letters will be mailed to the registered AECs that do not meet the 75% at-risk registration criterion informing them the AEC will shift from AEA to standard accountability and that the AEC will be evaluated under 2011 standard accountability procedures. • The Final 2011 Registered AEC list will be posted on the AEA website in May 2011. This list will contain the AECs that will receive an AEA rating on July 29, 2011. • A list of the charter operators that will be rated under 2011 AEA procedures will be posted on the AEA website in May 2011.

  34. TAKS Progress Indicator • The TAKS Progress indicator standard increases from 50% to 55%. • TAKS-Modified and TAKS-Alternate results are combined with TAKS and TAKS (Accommodated) results to determine AEA ratings. • The TAKS Progress indicator sums performance results across grades (3-12) and subjects to determine ratings under AEA procedures. • This indicator is based on the number of tests taken, not on the number of students tested.

  35. Completion Rate II and Annual Dropout Rate (Grades 7-12) Standards • The Annual Dropout Rate indicator standard remains 20.0%. • The Completion Rate II indicator standard remains 60.0%.

  36. Completion Rate II Indicator • This longitudinal rate shows the percent of students who completed or who are continuing their education four years after first attending grade 9 in Texas. • Completion Rate II counts graduates, continuing students (students who return to school for a fifth year), and GED recipients in the definition for AECs of Choice and charters evaluated under AEA procedures. • Residential Facilities are not evaluated on the Completion Rate II indicator. Charters that operate only Residential Facilities are not evaluated on the Completion Rate II indicator. • Only All Students are evaluated; student groups are not evaluated separately.

  37. Annual Dropout Rate Indicator • The Annual Dropout Rate indicator is grade 7-12 dropouts as a percent of total students enrolled at the registered AEC or charter in grades 7-12 in a single school year. • Only All Students are evaluated; student groups are not evaluated separately.

  38. Ethnicity/Race 2011

  39. Race/Ethnicity Data Collection, Reporting, and Use

  40. Race/Ethnicity Data Collection, Reporting, and Use • 2011 Preview Indicators shown on 2009-10 AEIS Reports are based on race/ethnicity under old definitions. • The 2011 accountability data tables released in July 2011 will report the current year (2011) results and the prior year (2010) results recalculated based on the new federal race/ethnicity definition. • Therefore, there will be differences in the 2010 results reported in the 2011 Preview Indicators on 2009-2010 AEIS and the 2010 results used for Required Improvement calculations on the 2011 data table for the African American, Hispanic, and White student groups.

  41. Race/Ethnicity Data Collection, Reporting, and Use • For State Accountability (AEA and Standard ) it is anticipated that the 2011 student groups will include groups with these labels: • All Students • African American • Hispanic • White • Economically Disadvantaged. • No additional student groups beyond these five are anticipated to be • added to the 2011 accountability system.

  42. Race/Ethnicity Data Collection, Reporting, and Use • Definitions: • Hispanic: Students who indicate their ethnicity is Hispanic/Latino in • question 1, regardless of their selection(s) for race provided • in question 2. • At a minimum, the definitions for the African American and White student groups will include students with these reported characteristics. • African American: Students who indicate their ethnicity is not Hispanic/Latino and who select the single racial category of Black or African American. • White: Students who indicate their ethnicity is not Hispanic/Latino and who select the single racial category of White.

  43. Race/Ethnicity Data Collection, Reporting, and Use • Two or More Races • Two or More Races = Not Hispanic/Latino AND multiple racial selections • In 2010, there were 74,366 students meeting this definition. • 29,770 were Black/African American AND White • 14,980 were White AND Asian • 14,810 were American Indian/Alaska Native AND White • Remainder were dispersed among 23 other combinations • How to incorporate Two or More Races into the 2011 accountability system will be determined with advisory groups in March 2011 and published as commissioner decisions in April 2011.
