• Data for RMS assessments uploaded to DRC on February 3, 2014

• Alternate Flag in Special Education Template needs to be updated as well.

Comparability Site (SOSR)• Compare tool on the State of the Schools Report allows

you to select between 2 and 7 districts or schools to compare.

• The selected schools/districts can be compared for characteristics, NePAS, NeSA, and AYP.

• Characteristics – poverty %, ELL %, SPED %, Mobility %, Grad %, Membership, Highly Mobile %

• NePAS – Status, Improvement, and Growth for all three levels

• NeSA – Percent Proficient – by subgroup, by grade, by subject

• AYP – Met or Not Met – by school level, by reading and math.

Audit NeSA Assessment Data

•Available through the Portal, districts will be able to audit assessment the following assessment data for district/school:▫Average scale score by subgroup, by

subject, and by grade.▫Performance Level – percent below, meets,

and exceeds by subgroup, by subject, and by grade.

▫Student scale scores, performance level, and reason not tested.

▫Shows both NeSA General and Alternate results
