TENNESSEE: District and School Accountability Theory of Action: State monitors districts, districts monitor schools
• Awards partial credit for improving but not meeting targets
• Recognizes high-achieving districts and schools
• Includes multiple pathways for performance on each indicator
Pathway Options:
1) Absolute performance (% of students on track or mastered)
2) AMO targets (takes into account the increase in the percent of students
necessary to remain on track to meet AMO targets)
3) Value-added (year to year growth)
Districts chose the better of the first two pathways. The better score
accounts for 50% and the value-added score for 50%.
Schools have the option of meeting either the first or the second pathway.

RHODE ISLAND: Shared Responsibility for School Reform
Principles for school improvement:
• Learning must be personalized to meet the needs of all students, and that a broad variety of pathways to college and career readiness must be made available.
• School improvement requires innovation, and that innovation cannot be achieved through coercion, but rather through empowerment of those closest to the students, namely families and educators.
• This empowerment must come through the form of greater flexibility and autonomy at the school level.
• School improvement is the work of all members of the state community, meaning Rhode Island must emphasize shared responsibility for improving opportunities and outcomes for every Rhode Island student.
• School improvement is not possible without authentically engaged communities and families.

RHODE ISLAND: Shared Responsibility for School Reform
School Redesign Process
All LEAs with schools identified as in need of comprehensive support and improvement (CSI) will assemble a Community Advisory Board (CAB) to fundamentally redesign and relaunch the school.
Through the CAB, community stakeholders will possess a dedicated advisory “seat at the table” to provide feedback and support on the initial development and ongoing progress of the school improvement plan. LEA’s may leverage the CAB to help identify direct roles that community stakeholders can play within the school improvement process.
