Accountability Update

Technical Design Group (TDG) and Public School Accountability Act (PSAA) Advisory Committee recommended to the State Superintendent that the 2014 Growth API for high schools not be produced.

The State Superintendent supports the PSAA Advisory Committee’s findings and may bring the recommendation to the May SBE meeting.

The first operational Common Core assessment will be given in the spring 2015. The CDE will use these results to produce a 2015 Base API.

High School API

AYP will be calculated for high schools. CDE is in negotiation to remove API from AYP components for high schools. Regulations only require one additional indicator. CA uses graduation rate as an additional indicator.

4

High School AYP

The 2013 API Statewide and Similar Schools Ranks will be produced this spring.

The CDE will also report out the 3-year average API score for districts and schools.

No 2013 Base API scores or 2013-2014 Growth Targets will be set up.

The new AMAO 1 and AMAO 2 targets will be discussed at the May or July SBE meeting.

Smarter Balanced Field Test There is no “waiver” for participating in the Field Test. If a

school/charter school/district does not have the technology to deliver the Field Test, the LEA should contact California Technical Assistance and will be assisted in scheduling their students for testing.

Students within the same grade level at the same school will take the same SBAC Field Test Performance Task.

No SBAC Field Test reports will be generated. Access to live and archived training modules for LEA test

and technology coordinators available online at http://www.startest.org/workshop.html .

Test administration manual expected to be available in February.
