2013 Academic Performance Scores (APS) for Pennsylvania Public and Charter Schools

A stated goal of the Pennsylvania Department of Education in releasing the 2013 APS is to inform the public of the academic performance measures of each school, comprehensive career and technical center, cyber charter and charter school in Pennsylvania.

Additionally, PDE has said the School Performance Profiles should be used as a resource for local education agencies to communicate and compare performance, analyze performance indicators as related to achievement, and encourage best practice and to employ the results as an analysis tool to inform goal setting, planning, and allocating resources to improve student achievement.

As of November 25, 2013 there were 15 Cyber Charter Schools and 174 Brick & Mortar Charter Schools operating in Pennsylvania. This report shows Academic Performance Scores for 121 Brick & Mortar Charter Schools and 15 Cyber Charter Schools.

This sample of schools compares Charter School Academic Performance Scores to only Public Schools in selected South Central PA Counties Counties. The Charter Schools in this study have an average score of 67.8 which is lower than the average York and Adams county HS score of 80.7; lower than Dauphin & Lebanon County HS average of 72.8; and, lower than the average Berks County HS score of 79.5; the Charter Schools low point of a significant range is 37.1 for Vs a similar low range calculation of only 57.5; 54.1 and 68.5 respectively for these same public high schools.

In any continuous improvement process the goal should always be to move the mean score higher and tighten the range.

In order to expedite process improvements it would be logical to drop those schools that fall *significantly below the average range of Public Schools [see calculations for selected counties 57.5, 54.1 & 68.5] and expedite the “get-well process” for those schools falling below the **average range [see calculations for selected counties below 69.1/63.4/74.0].

Additionally the charter schools that are **above the average range above the Charter School (83.2) mean should be benchmarked for best practices and used as models for the schools.

This is only a sample, but the logic can be applied to the entire population of 500 public and 174 charter and 15 Cyber schools, with one and two standard deviations set as benchmarks for improvement and best practices.

Cyber Charter Schools are not doing very well in comparison to either Charter or Public schools. There are only 6 schools that appear to be tracking well enough to remain:

1. PA VIRTUAL CS [3198 students]2. 21ST CENTURY CYBER CS [754 students]3. PENNSYLVANIA LEADERSHIPCS [2324 students]4. PENNSYLVANIA CYBER CS [10,434 students]5. PA DISTANCE LEARNING CS [358 students]6. COMMONWEALTH CONNECTIONS ACAD CS [6667 students]

A larger study may produce a lower mean for all public schools, i.e., lower standard, so that a few more Cyber Charter Schools would remain; however, the lowest performing Cyber Charter Schools should be evaluated based on their relative performance to the education a student would receive in a public school and if that performance is significantly worse, i.e., two standard deviations below the public school mean the charter should be withdrawn.

* Significantly below is calculated as two standard deviations below the mean (average)

** Below or above the average range is calculated as one standard deviation above or below the mean (average)

2012 -2013 UNDERSTANDING ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE SCORES The building level data used to develop the academic performance score for a school which is based upon indicators that define a high performing school. The following (5) five data elements create the school's academic performance score

50%

1. Academic Achievement

Indicators Include1. PSSA/Keystone performance2. industry standards-based competency assessments 3. grade three reading proficiency, and4. SAT/ACT college ready benchmarks

2. Closing the Achievement Gap of all students

Indicators from all student scores used to define how well the school is making progress toward proficiency of all students.

3. Closing the Achievement Gap of high needs students

Indicators from historically underperforming students’ scores are used to define how well the school is making progress toward proficiency of high needs students.

40%4. Academic Growth/PVAAS

Measures the school’s impact on the academic progress of groups of students from year-to-year

10%

5. Other Academic Indicators

Assesses factors that contribute to student achievement, e.g., 1. graduation rate2. promotion rate3. attendance rate

7 additional points available via Extra Credit for Advanced Achievement

Based upon advanced performance on state and industry assessments, as well as for students earning a 3 or higher on an Advanced Placement exam.

Teacher ratings begin in 2013-2014 school year and Principal evaluations begin in 2014-2015 school year using the Educator Effectiveness System which is based upon:

85% Classroom observations Teacher specific data Elective data

15% Building level data used to develop the school academic performance score is derived from the Pennsylvania School Performance Profile

Each data element on the following page(s) has a designated factor value to determine the contribution of that data element's performance measure. The points earned for each data element are calculated by multiplying the performance measure by the factor value. All earned points are then added to determine the total number of points earned. The total number of points earned is then divided by the total number of possible points for the school's calculated score. Additional credit is given for advanced achievement to determine a final score. If a school does not have a performance measure for a data element, that data element is removed from the calculation thereby not impacting the calculated score.
