Target: Met – Decrease in gap between All Students Graduating and Students With Disabilities shrank from 5.3% to 4.2%

Indicator 2: Drop-Out Rates

Target: Not Met; however, Students With Disabilities had dropped-out less than All Students in SY2008-09.

Indicator 3: SWD Performance on Assessments• Will look at the assessment data more closely in

afternoon presentation.• Indicator examines AYP in terms of Participation Rates• Indicator examines AYP in terms of achievement• AYP is becoming an increasingly difficult target to hit

for all students and sub-groups• Due to eccentricities in AYP determinations in

Arizona, it is difficult to make a meaningful assessment based on the AYP standard

• Only 22 schools met the “minimum n” for a determination in Special Education sub-group

• Of those only 13 made AYP in the sub-group

Indicator 4: Suspensions & Expulsions• No more than 7 of the BIE high schools or 8

BIE elementary schools will report suspensions and expulsion rates greater than two times the BIE average for that group of schools.

Addressing Suspensions and Expulsions

• Special Education has undertaken technical assistance activities to work with schools that have behavior issues (incentives, positive behavior supports, and conflict resolution/mediation, among others)

• Don Griffin in particular has taken the lead• NASIS has been retooled to use the NCES

“Safety In Numbers” methodology for tracking and reporting behavior incidents
