2006-2007 Math Goals with Data for Indicators

 

Long Range Goal 1:  All K-12 students will achieve at high levels in mathematics.

 

Students in the Atlantic Community Schools will show improved mathematics comprehension as evidenced by at least one of the following indicators:

 

The percent of 4th grade full academic year students scoring above the 40th NPR on the math total portion of the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills will increase from 69.2% proficient in accordance with the Iowa Accountability established trajectories in mathematics.

 

This indicator was met in 4th grade.

 

In the fall of 2006, 87.2% of the FAY 4th graders were proficient on the ITBS mathematics total portion compared to 69.2% in the fall of 2005.

 

The percent of 8th grade full academic year students scoring above the 40th NPR on the math total portion of the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills will increase from 77.8% proficient in accordance with the Iowa Accountability established trajectories in mathematics.

 

This indicator was met in 8th grade.

 

In the fall of 2006, 79.9% of the FAY 8th graders were proficient on the ITBS mathematics total portion compared to 77.8% in the fall of 2005.

 

The percent of 11th grade full academic year students scoring above the 40th NPR on the Iowa Tests of Educational Development in quantitative thinking will increase from 77.3% proficient in accordance with the Iowa Accountability established trajectory in mathematics.

 

This indicator was met in 11th grade.

 

In the fall of 2006, 82.2% of the FAY 11th graders were proficient on the ITED quantitative thinking compared to 77.3% in the fall of 2005.

 

6 out of 7 classes (3-9) will make at least a yearÕs growth (1.0 NGE) on the Iowa Tests of Basic Skills on the math total from the fall 2005 to fall 2006.

 

This indicator was met in grades 3-9.

 

7 out of the 7 (3rd through 9th) classes made at least one yearÕs growth (1.0 NGE) on ITBS math total:

3rd graders, 1.1 yearÕs growth

4th graders, 1.9 yearÕs growth

5th graders, 1.5 yearÕs growth

6th graders, 1.3 yearÕs growth

7th graders, 1.8 yearÕs growth

8th graders, 1.7 yearÕs growth

9th graders, 2.1 yearÕs growth.

 

3 out of the 5 grades (1st through 5th) will increase their spring mean total from the year before on the math CBMÕs.

 

This indicator was met in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd grade.

 

3 out of the 5 grades (1st through 5th) increased their spring       mean total from the previous year.  1st grade mean total went from 80 to 82, 2nd from 162 to 164 and 3rd grade from 179 to 196.

 

At least five grade levels 3-8 will make their expected RIT growth in mathematics from fall 2006 to spring 2007.

 

This indicator was met in all grades 3-5 and 7-8.

 

5 out of 6 grades exceeded their mean growth target.

Grade 3 mean RIT growth was 11.4 with a target of 10.2.

Grade 4 mean RIT growth was 11.3 with a target of 8.4.

Grade 5 mean RIT growth was 10.6 with a target of 8.6.

Grade 6 mean RIT growth was 6.8 with a target of 7.0.

Grade 7 mean RIT growth was 6.1 with a target of 5.8.

Grade 8 mean RIT growth was 8.9 with a target of 4.9.

 

Percentage of students (grades 3-8) who achieve expected (typical) growth on NWEA/MAP mathematics assessment from fall to spring will increase in 4 out of the 6 grade levels from the 2004-2005 testing.

 

This indicator was not met in all grades 3-8.

 

The percentage of students achieving expected (typical) growth increased in all grades:

3rd from 59.2% (05-06) to 63.9% (06-07) meeting growth target

4th from 65.7% (05-06) to 69.9% (06-07)

5th from 74.5% (05-06) to 65.3% (06-07)

6th from 53.5% (05-06) to 46.6% (06-07)

7th from 73.7% (05-06) to 54.9% (06-07)

8th from 72.5% (05-06) to 75.7% (06-07)

 

More than 94% of 2006-2007 sophomores will score in the upper three quartiles nationally on the PLAN in mathematics.

 

This indicator was not met in 10th grade.

 

84% of the 2006-2007 10th graders scored in the upper three quartiles nationally on the PLAN in mathematics compared to 94% the previous year.
