Academic Performance Score

• The score for a school is based upon multiple measures which define high performing schools.

• Many data elements are combined to create the academic score. These elements are categorized into five areas.

Five Data Components and Weightings*

• Indicators of Academic Achievement (40%)

• Indicators of Closing the Achievement Gap – All Students (5%)• Indicators of Closing the Achievement Gap – Historically

Underperforming Students (5%)

• Indicators of Academic Growth – PVAAS (40%)

• Other Academic Indicators (10%)

+ Extra Credit for Advanced Achievement (up to 7 points)

Sample Calculation:• Proficient/Advanced = 40% • Gap between 40% and 100% is 60%• Must close one-half of gap over a 6-year

period• Gap closure = 30% over 6-years• Annual goal = 5% per year
