U-PASS Accountability Plan

● Aggregate Subgroup Accountability Every student who belongs to a subgroup other

than white Individual student proficiencies are added

together and divided by the number of students to determine the subgroup proficiency level

● Any individual subgroup not meeting proficiency will appear on the front page of the report

12

U-PASS Accountability Plan

● Subgroup Status Accountability.

Allows greater accountability. Students in a subgroup with less than 10 are now included in the

aggregate calculation.

Students are more fairly represented. Each student only counts once, regardless of the number of subgroups

in which the student qualifies.

Increased reliability. We are evaluating a larger group. More students and more schools are represented.

Increased validity. We do not overweight small populations. This lifts the burden of one subgroup being the sole determinant of

unacceptable status of the school.

(It is possible for an LEA to not pass AYP and yet not be put into 'Improvement' because 'Improvement' considers 'subject' in addition to grade levels whereas 'not making AYP' does not.
