INOVA Student Profiles use colors to represent data.
•A student receives a color code by subject. •The colors represent a prediction of how the student will perform on the next test in a particular subject without any intervention.
For McAllen ISD, “Green” indicates a 97% (conversion rate) probability of passing the next test; “Blue” indicates an 82% probability of passing the next test; “Gray” indicates a 71% probability; “Yellow” is 55% and “Red” represents a 26% probability of passing. For example, based on the INOVA formula, if a campus has 100 students that are identified as “Blue”, 81 students (81%) should pass TAKS without intervention.
Our goal is to:•Increase the conversion rates •Increase the number of students who fall in the green, blue and gray color codes

Current Status The District’s ability to raise revenue without a tax ratification election
was removed by legislative action in 2005
For three of the past five years, the District has used its fund balance for operations
Neither the 2007 nor the 2009 Legislative sessions provided significant revenues without mandates
The District has implemented cost saving measures for 2008-2009 and 2009-2010
More effective and efficiency planning is needed to maintain financial health
