Hawaii State Public Charter School Commission Academic ...
Washington State Charter School CommissionACADEMIC PERFORMANCE FRAMEWORKThe Academic Performance Framework (APF) includes measures that allow the Washington State Charter School Commission (“the Commission”) to evaluate charter school academic performance. This section answers the evaluative question:? Is the academic program a success?? A charter school that meets the standards in this area is implementing its academic program effectively, and student learning—the central purpose of every school—is taking place.? For each measure in the framework, a charter school receives one of four ratings:? “Exceeds Standard”, “Meets Standard”, “Does Not Meet Standard”, or “Falls Far Below Standard”.?IndicatorMeasure1.State and Federal Accountability 1a.

The Achievement Index has three components that are evaluated for all students and for targeted subgroups (see Appendix A for detail):ProficiencyGrowthCareer and College ReadinessSchools receive an annual index score and performance designation and a composite based on the school’s three-year average results. Schools also receive an AYP rating as part of federal accountability requirements. The APF uses the annual index score and performance designation, as well as the AYP results and performance designations.1a. State Accountability: Achievement IndexIs the charter school meeting performance expectations based on the Washington State Achievement Index?Exceeds Standard: Charter school received a performance designation of “Exemplary” or “Very Good.” Meets Standard: Charter school received a performance designation of “Good.”Does Not Meet Standard: Charter school received a performance designation of “Fair.”Falls Far Below Standard: Charter school received a performance designation of “Underperforming” or “Lowest 5 Percent.”Additional Information/Considerations:The framework uses the annual AI results, as opposed to the 3 year composite.1b. Federal Accountability: AYP and Performance ClassificationsExceeds Standard: Charter school met AYP and received the “Reward” classification. Meets Standard: Charter school met AYP.Does Not Meet Standard: Charter school did not meet AYP.Falls Far Below Standard: Charter school received a “Focus” or “Priority” classification.Additional Information/Considerations: AYP and the performance classifications could be evaluated in two separate measures.Student Achievement (Proficiency)2a.1 Proficiency {COMPONENT OF THE ACHIEVEMENT INDEX}Are students meeting performance expectations on state assessments?Note: Reading, Math, Writing, and Science are evaluated separately.Exceeds Standard: Charter school proficiency rate met or exceeded the 75th percentile of statewide performance.

The peer group shares similar grade configurations and percentages of students eligible for free/reduced lunch, special education and limited English proficiency programs. Sample Section of NJ School Performance Report:Source: NJ DOE 2: Comparison to Small Group of Selected Similar SchoolsPros: Clear methodology for school selectionCharter school has a small group of schools for comparisonCons: Schools may be matched with peers in different geographic areas.Given the small number of comparison schools, targets must be based on simple difference between charter school and matched school assessment results.Example:The Illinois State Charter School Commission selects four schools based on geography and the closest match of student characteristics using the following methodology: Step 1. Select comparison schools serving similar student populations based on the following criteria: Serves the same grade levels as the charter schoolLocated within 50 miles of the charter school and has the same urban/rural designation as the charter schoolSubgroup enrollment is within 10 percentage points of the charter school for each of the following student groups:Black studentsAsian-American studentsHispanic studentsWhite students English-Language Learners (ELL)Students with disabilities The comparison school is not another charter school.Charter schools that serve several grade levels (K-8, K-12) may need to be matched to comparison schools at multiple grade levels. For example, it may not be possible to identify K-8 non-charter schools to compare to a K-8 charter school. In this case, the different grade levels tested by the charter school (3-5, 6-8) would be separated and matched to schools serving the same subset of grades. Similar schools would be selected for grades 3-5, using the criteria outlined above and then the process would be repeated for grades 6-8. Any exceptions to the matching criteria should be clearly noted in the evaluation documentation. Step 2. If more than four matches are found, select the four best matches for comparison schools, based on the difference in ethnicity and low-income enrollment between the charter school and potential comparison schools. If less than two matches are found, relax the +/-10 percentage point requirement for similar subgroup populations until two match schools are identified. Note any exceptions to the match process.Step 3. Calculate an average of the comparison schools. If the comparison schools enroll students in the same grades as the charter school, average the overall school proficiency rates of all comparison schools (no weighting is applied).If the selected comparison schools represent multiple grade levels (e.g. elementary 3-5 and middle school 6-8), calculate the average proficiency rates of the comparison schools, weighted by the charter school 3-5 and 6-8 number tested. Step 4. Compare the charter school’s overall proficiency rates in math and ELA to the average proficiency rates in math and ELA of the comparison schools. ................
