Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)Pittsfield Public SchoolsSeptember 23, 2009
IntroductionH.J. Eberwein, Ed.D.
The mission of the Pittsfield Public Schools is to serve our community and its children by creating an environment where lifelong learning is valued, excellence is expected, and improvement is continuous.
Raising ExpectationsRaising PerformanceRaising ReadinessAs we look forward:LIFE
Quality matters.Instructional Core
The purpose of school is to see that all students learn at high levels, and the future of our students depends on our success in achieving that purpose.
We cannot help all students learn at high levels if we work in isolation. We must build collaborative culture and engage in a collective effort to achieve our purpose.
We will not know if we are helping all students learn unless we focus on results and use evidence of student learning as part of a continuous improvement process.Organizational expectations..
Have external standards and assessments,Use data to inform decisions,Create Professional Learning Communities,Develop a focused approach,Implement early warning systems & safety nets,Communicate high expectations for all students.high-impact schools..Stretch expectations!
Time for teams,Alignment and articulation of curriculum,Progress monitoring of students,SMARTe team goalsStrategic, measureable, attainable, results oriented, time boundfor everyonePlans for response - remediation, enrichmentEffective (varied) instructional approach

Background (AYP)Barbara Malkas
Four Factors Determine AYP A + (B or C) + D = Affirmative AYP DeterminationAParticipation
BPerformanceCImprovement
DAdditional IndicatorDid at least 95% of students participate in MCAS in 2009?Did the student group perform at or above the 2009 state performance target?Did the student group meet its own 2009 improvement target?Did the student group meet the target for the Additional Indicator (Attendance, Graduation)?
Composite Performance Index (CPI)Multiply the number of points by the number of students at each performance level, then divide the total number of points by the total number of students (example below)

A + (B or C) + D = Affirmative AYP Determination
PerformanceImprovementIs an absolute measureIs a relative measureIs measured by comparing a groups 2009 CPI to the 2009 state performance targetIs measured by looking at a groups change in CPI from 2008 to 2009Answers the question, Did the group perform at or above the 2009 state performance target? (ELA: 90.2, Math 84.3 )Answers the question, Did the group improve from 2008 to 2009 so that it is on track to 100% proficiency by 2014?

Data analysis for the district
Student MCAS performance is directly related to DIBELS benchmark performance and achievement of benchmark targetsStudent performance on MCAS using nonfiction and technical prompts is a challenge area across grade levelsStudent performance on open response items shows general improvement but requires continued developmentStudent performance in mathematics in number sense and procedural computation skills in grade 5 indicates a need for fluency to achieve proficiencyStudents performance in mathematics in the use of fractions in grade 7 indicates a need for fluency to achieve proficiencyStudent performance in both mathematics and English language arts indicates continued use of the three-tier model of intervention in grades k-8 with expansion into high school
District Action Steps
All students will meet district established benchmark goals for the development of early literacy skills by the end of grade 2All students will develop reading skills for comprehension of nonfiction prompts in grades 3 to 10All students will develop communication and writing skills across grade levels and content areas to demonstrate content knowledge, thinking skills, and to address open response items.All students will demonstrate number sense and computation skills to mastery by the end of grade 5 for application in the secondary grades
District Action Steps (2)
All students will be fluent in the use of fractions by grade 7All students will have a comprehensive curriculum in mathematics and English language arts, which includes individualized intervention material in grades k-12All students will be assessed for progress monitoring purposes to inform intervention and individualized instruction to close gaps in skill developmentAll students will have an individualized analysis of their MCAS performance used for purposes of educational planning

Questions/Discussion
Thanks to committeeWading through the tome of data - just the tip of the icebergThanks to principals and staff - their efforts are reflected in our growth
Its about kids
Ellis - Young man Moving goal posts in education
About readiness for life, informed, engaged citizenshipIdentify and implement a school wide instructional focusDevelop professional collaboration teams to improve teaching and learningIdentify, learn and use effective research-based teaching practicesCreate targeted professional development plans that build expertise in selected best practiceRe-align resources to support the instructional focusEngage families and the community in supporting the instructional focusCreate an internal accountability system growing out of student learning goals that promote measureable gains in learning for every student.What this means in the classroom is
Curriculum aligned with state national/ standardsStudents who are engaged in the learning processA high level or rigor for all studentsDifferentiation - student-centric approach .varied instructional approach
OrganizationallyMore time in school (school day and school year) - opportunities to enrich and applyParental involvement & mentoring as necessary
AYP reports show the progress schools and districts are making toward having all students reach proficiency by the year 2014 the principal goal of the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB).
School and district AYP determinations are issued separately for English language arts/reading (ELA) and for mathematics each year.
For each subject there are multiple AYP determinations - for all students (the aggregate) and for student groups. Students are counted in each group to which they belong.
In 2008 we achieved AYP in 2 of 12 categoriesIn 2009 we have achieved AYP in 7 of 12 categories
The ELA Performance rating for the 12 schools is as follows:
Of the 80 total indicators (this includes aggregate and subgroups)
58 indicators went up8 stayed the same (+/- 1 point)14 declined
