Key Performance Indicators
Practice Scenarios• Which students have perfect attendance so far this year?
• On what standard/skill is your class doing the best? The worst?
• Do you see improvement from one test to the next?
• What instructional materials are available to help students with the skills they are having trouble mastering?
• Which benchmark question did your students do collectively better or worse than the district as a whole?
• Which students are in an LEP (or ELL/ESL) program?
• Which students perform well in math, but not reading?
• Looking at the data, do you think that benchmark scores are good predictors of standardized test results?
Next Steps
• Wrap Up Classrooms - Lunch
• Assessment Admin is used to build tests and monitor the collection of results
• Reporting on the actual student responses is done in the Classrooms and School & District Data modules
