ESEA Flexibility Waiver – Federal Accountability Differences
New under ESEA• All public schools in PA• 100% proficiency on state
tests by 2014• “Adequate Yearly
Progress” (AYP)• Disaggregated subgroups:
N=40• Each school receives a
designation based on AYP status
• Federal designations only apply to Title I schools
• Close “achievement gap” by half in 6 years
• Annual Measureable Objectives (AMOs)
• Two student groups: N=11• Only highest and lowest
Title I schools receive designations
Old under NCLB
10
The new accountability system focuses on four Annual Measurable Objectives (AMOs):
1) Test Participation Rate
2) Graduation Rate/Attendance Rate
3) Closing Achievement Gap-for all students
4) Closing the Achievement Gap of Historically Underperforming Students

Data Analysis
Every discussion conducted and every decision
made during an entire planning process should be
based upon relevant, meaningful, and timely data
Planning teams may wish to utilize the Data
Walkthroughs provided within the CP web
application

Data AnalysisYour school name
24
Data Analysis
The Planning Processes
require planning teams to document
data-based statements of
ACCOMPLISHMENTS
and data-based statements of
CONCERNS
25
Data AnalysisStatements of concern should identify specific findings from analysis of data related to student academic achievement and performance (e.g. attendance, behavior, graduation rate, etc.) which the planning team believes to be most worrisome.
72% of our students did not score at the proficient or advanced level in the 2014 PSSA Reading exam.
The total number of behavioral referrals increased by 11% from 2012-13 to 2013-14.

Systems Analysis• Data Analysis informs Systems Analysis.
• The guiding questions in the web application were identified and aligned to researched-based systems.
• The sources of the system(s) include the following:– SAS portal– 7 Turnaround Principles – Educator Effectiveness Principles

Action Planning
Identify all of the “to-do list” steps that will be needed to implement the Strategies: Each “to-do list” step is an Implementation Step
Identify Strategies that have a significant probability of meeting the Action Plan Goal
Select/create a Systemic Challenge to be the Goal of an Action Plan (or create a Goal)

Effective Strategy? Why or why not?
Goal: Ensure that there is a system within the school the fully ensures school-wide use of data that is focused on school
improvement and the academic growth of all students.
Strategy: Make data part of an ongoing cycle of instructional improvement
Strategy description: Our school will develop a data team that will select data and analyze it weekly in order to help our teachers
make instructional decisions. We will rely on our data coordinators to pull data and organize it for analyzing purposes. Once data teams have reviewed the data, it will be shared during
weekly, grade-level Professional Learning Communities (PLCs); and instructional practices will be prioritized accordingly.

Action Planning: Strategies
Effective Strategy? Why or why not?
Goal: Ensure that there is a system within the school the fully ensures school-wide use of data that is focused on school improvement and the
academic growth of all students.
Strategy: Implement classroom walk-through system
Strategy description: The Principal will implement classroom walk-through culture within the school in which observable evidence of teaching practice
and learning results to support inquiry will be collected and used. This process provides data for reflection, dialogue between the principal and
teacher, and decision-making that improves student learning. Walk-throughs are non-evaluative. They are the basis for questions, observations, and
professional dialogue in ways that turn inquiry into action. They link the philosophical beliefs that the school has embraced -- and plans to which the
school has committed -- with observable change at the classroom and student level.

Goal: Ensure that there is a system within the school the fully ensures school-wide use of data that is focused on school improvement and the

Strategy: Create an Early Identification Academic Support Program.
Strategy description: The Leadership Team will create a program that incorporates a variety of data sources, including diagnostic assessment results, which allow teachers, administrators and other school staff to identify students at risk prior to or soon after their enrollment in the
school and to prescribe and monitor the effectiveness of interventions for individual students during their years at our elementary school.
