• Points are awarded/subtracted based on improvement or decline from prior year

• All component values are capped at their maximum values. That is, if a school earns points in excess of the total for a particular component – through the growth adjustment or the escalating weights in the acceleration components – the school will receive the maximum points for that component.

Growth Component Decline Component• School gains one point for

each annual percentage increased from prior year

• Capped at 20 points (40 for factors worth 200 points)

• School loses 5 points if a component declines by at least 10 percentage points from prior year (10 points for factors worth 200 points)

• In 2009-10 and 2010-11, the graduation rate will be calculated using the NGA 4-year cohort method

• End-of-year reporting (ends on August 16, 2010) is used for reporting each year’s end-of-year status for students

• Subset of overall cohort – includes only those students that earned a Level 2 or lower on both FCAT Reading and Math in 8th Grade.

• If a school does not have at least 10 students in that subgroup, the school’s overall graduation rate will be substituted

• Schools that earn enough points for an “A” grade must demonstrate “adequate progress” (75%) of the at-risk graduation rate population.

• School’s grade will be lowered to a “B” if one of the recommended conditions is not met. (See chart below)
