Interpreting the
School District Report Cards
| I
highly recommend that you take a few moments to review
the glossary of terms to
assist you in interpreting the district rating data on this
site. |
|
|
Districts are rated based on the following
ratings:
| Excellent |
The
district meets 17 or 18 indicators or 100 or above on the
Performance Index (PI) |
| Effective |
The
district meets 14 to 16 indicators or score 90 to 99.9 on the
PI. |
| Continuous
Improvement |
The
district meets 9 to 13 indicators or 80 to 89.9 on the PI OR
they meet AYP (the lowest a district can be rated if they meet
AYP is CI). |
| Academic
Watch |
The
district meets 6 to 8 indicators or score 70 to 79.9 and
have missed AYP. |
| Academic
Emergency |
The
district met 5 or fewer indicators, scored less than a 70 and
missed AYP. |
|
| Adequate
Yearly Progress (AYP): The final goal is for all students to
reach the proficient level in reading and mathematics by
2013-14. Until then, yearly goals are set requiring a specific
percentage of students in 10 student groups, such as African
American, Hispanic, and White students, to reach proficiency in
these subjects. For the school to meet AYP, goals for each
student group must be met. If any goal is missed, the school
does not meet AYP for the year |
|
| State
Indicators: A school meets a state indicator by reaching a
minimum requirement for the percentage of students at or above
the proficient level on 3rd, 4th-, 6th- and 9th-grade tests. The
two non-test indicators with minimum requirements are graduation
and attendance rate. |
| Performance
Index Score: For each subject in grades four and six,
students get one of four performance levels – below basic,
basic, proficient and advanced – on a test. The performance
index averages the scores for the five subject areas tested in
your school and creates a scale of 0-120 with 100 being the
goal. The performance index score represents the achievement of
all students on all five subject areas of the proficiency tests.
