Appendix A. Glossary This glossary explains the educational and fiscal terms and measures contained in the 2012 Superintendent’s 23nd
Annual Report. An “na” stands for “not appropriate” or “not reportable,” while a “- - ” stands for missing or unavailable data. Due to rounding of percentages, there may be slight differences among published reports (for example, 9.6% may be reported as 10% for the same measure in different reports).
Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP): This is the minimum standard for improvement that all schools must achieve each year according to the federal No Child Left Behind accountability requirements. To meet AYP, all students and all student subgroups (i.e., Special Education, English Language Learner, Economically Disadvantaged, and five ethnic groups) must achieve a certain level of participation and proficiency on the state reading and mathematics tests. In addition, schools must meet either an on-time graduation rate for high schools or must not exceed a retention rate for elementary and middle/intermediate schools. If a school meets the minimum standard for all 37 indicators (45 for high schools), it has “Met” AYP. If a school fails to meet one (or more) of the 37 indicators, it has “Not Met” AYP.
Administrators, School: This is a Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) count of all principals and vice-principals.
Administrators, State and Complex Area: The FTE count is the sum of positions that have responsibility for the administrative support of programs, curriculum, and state or federal legal requirements. Examples of FTE positions include complex areas superintendents, evaluation specialists, facilities planners, personnel specialists, test development specialists, budget specialists, information (data) specialists, state and district curriculum/educational specialists, and safety/security program specialists.
Appropriated Funds: Funds determined by the state legislature, and enacted by the governor, to provide basic support for the Hawaii State Department of Education to operate a statewide school district.
Attendance Rate: The percent of the official student enrollment attending school every day during the school year. For example, 95% means that on any given day during the past school year, 95% of the students are in school on the average.
Average Years Experience: This is a simple average of the number of years of approved teaching experience.
Charter Schools: Charter schools are independent public schools designed and operated by educators, parents, community leaders, educational entrepreneurs, and others. They were established by state legislation and are directly responsible to the Hawaii State Board of Education, which monitors their quality and effectiveness, but allows them to operate outside of the traditional system of public schools.
Classroom Teachers, FTE or Headcount: A Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) position count comprises of all teachers who are directly teaching students. Unlike FTE, “Headcount” is a simple count of the number of teachers who are directly teaching students.
Complex: This smaller division within a Complex Area consists of high school(s) and middle/intermediate and elementary schools within its attendance boundary.
Complex Areas: These are administrative units made up of two or more complexes.
Demographics, State: Figures reported by the U.S. Census Bureau for years other than decennial, 10- year censuses are estimates and are updated periodically. Such estimates in this report are from the American Community Survey. For an explanation of terms, definitions, and criteria used for classification, please go to the U.S. government website for the census: www.census.gov or www.proximityone.com
Dropout Rate: This four-year dropout rate is the percent of high school students who have not returned to school and have either officially exited as “drop-outs”, whose school enrollment statuses are undetermined, or who have not graduated within four years.
21
Early Childhood Endorsement: To earn an Early Childhood Endorsement certificate, a teacher must have had 18 credits in Child & Family Studies; completed all course requirements for Elementary Education and an additional 12 credits in Early Childhood Education; and have successfully completed student teaching in kindergarten, first or second grade.
Economically Disadvantaged: These are students whose families meet the income qualifications for the federal free/reduced-cost lunch program. This is an indicator of school-community poverty.
English Language Learners (ELL): Students certified as receiving English-as-a-second-language services. Note that in school year 2003-04 a new reporting system for ELL began resulting in figures that are non-comparable to past years’ figures.
Enrollment Count, Official: The official enrollment count of each school is reported to the state upon the yearly opening of school. A school’s enrollment may fluctuate over the course of the school year, so that an enrollment count taken mid-year may be different from its official enrollment count. -“Speech only and Hearing-Impaired only” special education students are excluded from the special education student count in the official enrollment report.
Federal Funds: Funds provided by the federal government for use by the state public school system, through grants from various federal agencies, such as the U.S. Department of Education, U.S. Department of Defense, and U.S. Department of Agriculture.
5 or More Years at Same School: Percent of teachers who have taught at one school for five or more years. It is an indicator of school staffing stability. Schools with moderate levels of mobility are considered most successful in implementing and sustaining school improvement efforts.
Fully Licensed: Teachers who meet requirements (e.g., completed at least a bachelor’s degree and an approved teacher training program) to be fully licensed by the Hawaii State Teachers Standards Board.
Full-Time Equivalent (FTE): These are position counts and not “head counts,” and are the sum of full- and part-time positions. Note that partial counts are possible. For example, one full-time (1.0 FTE) and one half-time (0.5 FTE) sum to 1.5 FTEs.
General Funds: The primary source of funding for the state public school system, provided by the state through taxpayer revenues.
Graduation, Graduation Rate, Graduate On Time, Four-Year Graduation: Count or percent of all high school students, including public charter school students, who had completed high school within four years of their 9th grade entry date. Special Education students receiving certificates of completion and students taking more than four years to complete high school are not included. For more information on the new Adjusted Cohort Graduation Rate methodology, visit the U.S. DOE website: http://www2.ed.gov/policy/elsec/guid/hsgrguidance.pdf
Hawaii P-20 Partnerships for Education: A statewide partnership led by the Good Beginnings Alliance, the Hawaii State Department of Education, and the University of Hawaii System to strengthen early childhood through higher education so that all students achieve career and college success.
Hawaii P-3: An initiative by Hawaii P-20 to increase children’s social-emotional and cognitive development toward the end goal of reading at grade level by third grade.
National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP): These are norm referenced tests in reading, mathematics, writing, and science developed and given by the U.S. Department of Education to sampled groups of students in grade 4 and 8 in all states. The data from the NAEP include state results for demographic groups of students, but not for Complex Areas, schools, or individual students. The metrics that NAEP uses include average scale scores and the percentages of students achieving NAEP Advanced, NAEP Proficient, NAEP Basic, and NAEP Below Basic. Advanced and Proficient denote mastery of challenging subject matter, including success on some items that are above the grade level of the students being tested. NAEP defines Basic as denoting partial mastery of prerequisite knowledge and skills that are
22
fundamental for proficient work at each grade assessed. Below Basic means performing below the grade level being tested. These achievement levels overlap with but are not identical to the proficiency levels of the Hawaii State Assessment.
No Child Left Behind (NCLB): This federal law, enacted in 2001, is a reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, and consists of many Title programs (e.g., Title I, Title IV, etc.) each with its own funding and reporting requirements. The Act specifies school and state accountability mandates and reporting requirements for Title I funds, and requires that all schools in a state must be subject to the same accountability system.
NCLB Sanctions: Mandates imposed on schools “in sanction” status by No Child Left Behind guidelines. The sanctions are increasingly stringent the longer a school stays in sanction status. Initial sanctions include school choice and supplemental educational services.
No Sanctions: Schools whose NCLB status for the coming year is either “In Good Standing, Unconditional” or “In Good Standing, Pending.” If a school meets all 37 AYP indicators (45 for high schools) for two consecutive years, or if a school In Good Standing has not met AYP for one year, then it is given “no sanctions” by the state.
Not Suspended, Students: The number of students who are not suspended by the school and therefore an indicator of appropriate student behavior at school.
Perceptions of Safety and Well-Being, Student and Teacher: Positive responses to a set of items on the Hawaii State Department of Education’s annual School Quality Survey (SQS) regarding school safety and well-being. The percent of positive responses are reported.
Per-Pupil Expenditure: The numbers reported from the National Center of Education Statistics (NCES) may be used for state to state comparisons. Numbers are based on membership and can be expected to be smaller than per pupil expenditures based on average daily attendance. Current expenditure for public elementary and secondary education in a state is divided by the student membership. Current expenditures are funds spent for operating local public schools and local education agencies, including such operating expenses as salaries for school personnel, student transportation, school books and materials, and energy costs, but excluding capital outlay and interest on school debt.
Preschool, Attended: This is the percent of entering kindergarten students reported as having attended preschool.
Private Schools: Privately operated schools not under the direction of the Hawaii State Department of Education.
Relative Wealth, Per-Capita Revenue: The per-capita revenue is reported by the U.S. Census Bureau as a result of its Annual Survey of State Government Finances 2011 (a survey completed by all states). Per-capita amounts are based on population figures as of July 1, 2009, and are computed on the basis of amounts rounded to the nearest thousand figures obtained also from the U.S. Census Bureau.
Retention Rates for Elementary: Percent of students, excluding kindergartners, who are not promoted to the next grade level. A low retention rate is desired.
Retention Rates for Middle & Intermediate: Percent of 8th grade students who are not promoted to 9th grade the following year. A low retention rate is desired.
Sanctions: If a school fails to meet Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for two consecutive years, it receives the sanction associated with NCLB status of School Improvement Year 1. If it continues to not meet AYP, it receives progressively greater sanctions associated with each NCLB status of School Improvement Year 2, Corrective Action, Planning for Restructuring, and Restructuring.
Schools, Total: The total number is the sum of all public schools. All regular public schools, public charter schools, and special schools are in this count. Adult Community Schools are not counted.
23
Section 504: Regulation requiring schools to provide a “free appropriate public education” (FAPE) to each qualified student with a disability who is in the school district’s jurisdiction regardless of the nature or severity of that disability.
Special Education (SPED): This count and percent contain all special education students listed on the official enrollment report as receiving special education services.
Special Funds: Funds generated through revenue sources other than state taxpayer revenues, such as cafeteria collections from students; adult education tuition/fees; summer school tuition; driver education fees; facility rental fees; and lost textbook penalty fees.
Special Needs, Multiple: Students identified and/or qualified as special needs under more than one of the following categories: economically disadvantaged as determined by receiving free/reduced-cost lunch, Section 504 classification, and certified as receiving special education or English Language Learner services.
Standard-based Assessment, Hawaii Content and Performance Standards: These tests measure student achievement in reading and mathematics based on Hawaii content standards. The percents shown are assessment results, not No Child Left Behind (NCLB) accountability results. “Percent Proficient & Exceeds Proficiency” is derived from test results that meet or exceed proficiency (i.e., proficiency cut-score).
State and Local Expenditures Supporting Public Education, Percent: This percentage is published by the U.S. Department of Education, National Center of Education Statistics (NCES), Digest of Educational Statistics 2009 publication. The percentage is calculated by dividing the states’ "Total, all general expenditures per capita" by the states’"Elementary and secondary education expenditures" per capita. The Total, all general expenditures per capita includes state and local government expenditures for education services, social services, and income maintenance, transportation, public safety, environment and housing, governmental administration, interest on general debt, and other general expenditures, including intergovernmental expenditure to the federal government, as reported by the state’s NCES Common Core of Data Financial Survey.
Support Staff, Other: This is a Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) count that encompasses a wide range of positions that support schools. These categories may include school assessment liaisons, athletic directors, registrars, state and district resource teachers, school psychologists, custodians, cafeteria workers, school secretaries, school security guards, educational assistants, occupational therapists, mental health assistants, behavioral specialists, student service coordinators, among others. Note that the assignment of positions to categories is based on U.S. Department of Education, National Center for Education Statistics, Common Core of Data, Non-Fiscal Survey requirements.
Title I: A school is designated as a “Title I” school and receives supplemental federal funding under NCLB if its student population meets a specified poverty rate. Title I schools are obligated to follow federal requirements regarding Title I funds.
Trust Funds: Funds segregated for specific purposes, such as foundation grants, and athletic gate receipts.
Wellness: Student wellness is affected by nutrition education, the food served in schools, and the amount of physical activity. The DOE also recognizes that when students’ wellness needs are met, they attain higher achievement levels.
