The following report was produced on behalf of the DC Office of the State Superintendent of Education by GreatSchools, an independent, nonprofit organization which specializes in publishing education performance information for parents.

As a parent myself, as well as a former math teacher, I know that making decisions about your child’s education is important. Giving parents all of the information they need—whether it is test score data or schools that have been identified for improvement—is a large portion of what we do. Our goal is to help empower parents to determine the right learning environment for their child.

The report cards included here are based on the results from the DC Comprehensive Assessment System (DC CAS). DC CAS measures how well our students have mastered the knowledge and skills contained in the state’s academic learning standards. The results are broken down for the district, each Local Education Agency (LEA), and each school within the LEAs. They also offer specific information to the public on each school’s performance under the accountability system approved by the DC State Board of Education.

LEAs, schools and educators use the information on these report cards to evaluate their effectiveness in the classroom, plan curriculums, and build strategies to improve their outcome for the following year.

Thank you for your interest in this year’s state report card. If you need help interpreting this data please visit www.osse.dc.gov.

Sincerely,

Hosanna Mahaley,

State Superintendent of Education

Washington, DC



Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)

This school did not meet AYP because only 22 of 31 indicators were satisfied.

TRUESDELL EC

The Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965, as amended by the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB, Public law 107-100), requires the District of Columbia to annually determine whether schools, districts, and the state have made adequate yearly progress (AYP) toward the goal of having all students meet rigorous state academic standards by the 2013-2014 school year. Each year, the performance of all students in the school, local education agency (LEA), and state is measured using the DC Comprehensive Assessment System (DC CAS). The results are compared against annual performance targets to determine whether the school, LEA, or state is making AYP.

In order to meet AYP all specified student groups consisting of a minimum number of students must meet proficiency and participation goals. In addition, high schools must meet a graduation rate goal, while elementary and middle schools must meet an attendance rate goal. If any subgroup of students or the whole student body in a school does not meet the targets, or does not make sufficient progress toward the targets, the school is designated as not meeting AYP. The same requirements apply to each LEA and to the state.

THERE ARE TWO WAYS TO MAKE AYP:

1. Meet or exceed the AYP targets (testing and attendance/graduation rate) for the current year

2. Meet or exceed Safe Harbor2 (sh) requirements for the current year

Only students who were enrolled in the state for the full academic year are included in the AYP results. In the District of Columbia, a Full Academic Year is defined as being enrolled on the official enrollment day in October (October 5, or the first business day after October 5) AND being enrolled on the first day of the assessment window (generally late April) AND remaining enrolled for 85 percent of instructional days between the October date and the April date.

The percentage marker on the charts show the annual performance target set for the state for elementary schools in the 2010-2011 school year.

ATTENDANCE/GRADUATION RATESIn addition to test score results for Reading and Mathematics, schools must meet a third indicator to make AYP: daily average attendance rates for elementary and middle schools, and graduation rates for high schools.

The daily average attendance rate target is 90% and the graduation target is 85%. If a school or LEA does not meet the target, but demonstrates improvement of 1% from the previous year, they are considered to have made AYP for this indicator.

Federal law requires all public elementary and secondary school students to be taught by teachers who are certified as being “highly qualified,” otherwise known as HQT – Highly Qualified Teacher. This means teachers in the core academic areas (defined as: English, reading/language arts, math, science, foreign languages, civics/government/economics, arts, history and geography) must hold a bachelor’s degree, have full state certification and demonstrate subject-matter competency.
