State Data on Student Dropout
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
Future Interventions
• Dropout Prevention / Early Warning System:– GaDOE partnering with GLISI, Gwinnett County
and SERVE to develop a system that provides a student-level indication for the probability of high school graduation starting in 6th grade.
• GaDOE CCRPI – Next generation accountability system incentivizes
holistic student development towards college and career readiness

The Common Core State Standards Initiative
9
Beginning in the spring of 2009, Governors and state commissioners of education from 48 states, 2 territories and the
District of Columbia committed to developing a common core of state K-12 English-language arts (ELA) and
mathematics standards.
The Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI) is a state-led effort coordinated by the
National Governors Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO).
www.corestandards.org
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
10
Why Common Core Standards
• Preparation: The standards are college- and career-ready. They will help prepare students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in education and training after high school.
• Competition: The standards are internationally benchmarked. Common standards will help ensure our students are globally competitive.
• Equity: Expectations are consistent for all – and not dependent on a student’s zip code.
• Clarity: The standards are focused, coherent, and clear. Clearer standards help students (and parents and teachers) understand what is expected of them.
• Collaboration: The standards create a foundation to work collaboratively across states and districts, pooling resources and expertise, to create curricular tools, professional development, common assessments and other materials.

Thomas Fordham InstituteGPS and CCSS in 2010
Georgia: Grade A-
Clarity and Specificity 3/3
Content and Rigor 6/7
Total GPS Score 9/10
Georgia is one of eight states receiving at least 9/10 points.
CCSS: Grade A-
Clarity and Specificity 2/3
Content and Rigor 7/7
Total CCSS Score 9/10
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
Why are the Common Core State Standards for English language arts and mathematics
right for Georgia?
• Previous work with the GPS has prepared Georgia for the implementation of the CCGPS.
• Prior teacher and administrator GPS training ensures a smooth transition.
• Although some content may be in different grade levels in CCSS, nearly all of the ELA and mathematics standards are addressed.
• CCSS expectations are consistent with a single/high-rigor diploma requirement for all students.

Overarching standards for each strand that are further defined by grade-specific standards
Grade-Level Standards in English Language Arts (CCGPS) K-8, grade-by-grade 9-10 and 11-12 grade bands for high school Four strands: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language
Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Standards are embedded at grades K-5 Content-specific literacy standards are provided for grades 6-8, 9-10, and 11-12

Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
College and Career Readiness Standards and Common Core State Standards
• The College and Career Readiness Standards were written first and define the expectations for all students upon graduation from high school.
• The K-12 grade-specific standards define end-of-year expectations and a cumulative progression designed to enable students to meet college and career readiness expectations no later than the end of high school.
• Each Common Core State Standard is aligned to a college and career readiness standard.
15
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
College and Career Readiness Standards
(CCR)
These 32 standards “anchor” the document and define
general, cross-disciplinary literacy expectations that
must be met for students to be prepared to enter
college and workforce training programs ready to
succeed. (10 Reading, 10 Writing, 6 Speaking & Listening, and 6 Language)
16
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
17
Common Core for Mathematics
Standards for Mathematical Content• K-8 grade-by-grade standards organized by domain
• 9-12 high school standards organized by conceptual categories
Standards for Mathematical Practice• Describe mathematical “habits of mind”
• Offer standards for mathematical proficiency: reasoning, problem solving, modeling, decision making, and engagement
• Connect with content standards in each grade
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
18
K- 8 Mathematics Standards
• The K-5 standards provide students with a solid foundation in whole numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions and decimals.
• The 6-8 standards describe robust learning in geometry, algebra, and probability and statistics.
• Modeled after the focus of standards from high-performing nations, the standards for grades 7 and 8 include significant algebra and geometry content.
• Students who have completed 7th grade and mastered the content and skills will be prepared for algebra in 8th grade or after.
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
19
High School Mathematics Standards
• Call on students to practice applying mathematical ways of thinking to real world issues and challenges
• Require students to develop a depth of understanding and ability to apply mathematics to novel situations, as college students and employees regularly are called to do
• Emphasize mathematical modeling, the use of mathematics and statistics to analyze empirical situations, understand them better, and improve decisions
• Identify the mathematics that all students should study in order to be college and career ready.

GaCCRPI Calculations & Scores

• The foundation of the GaCCRPI is the college and career ready indicators
• The indicators are grouped by categories at each school level
• A percentage rate will be calculated for each indicator
• Scores will be provided in 3 areas to arrive at the Overall School Score: Achievement Score Progress Score Achievement Gap Closure Score
• Schools will also receive Star Ratings in two areas: Financial Efficiency School Climate
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
Student surveys such as the Georgia Student Health Survey II have linked school climate with thoughts of dropping out of school.
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
According to data from the Georgia Student Health Survey II, students have contemplated dropping out of school because:
• They don’t feel safe at school• They don’t feel successful at school• They are victims of bullying and harassment• They don’t feel respected at school• Schools don’t set clear rules for behavior• They don’t know anyone at school that they can trust
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
• Promotes student learning• Improves test scores• Improves graduation rates• Improves school safety• Improves student attendance• Reduces drop-out rate• Improves working environment (student-teacher and
peer relationships)• Promotes higher rate of teacher satisfaction
Why is a Positive School Climate Important?
