The NYC Progress Report shapes how
your school is perceived by prospective parents. Of the three NTC accountability reports, it
is the only one that transforms schools ratings into letter grades. This school is an A, that school is a C. Validity of the metrics aside, parents
understand that an A is better than a C.
I have become obsessed with dissecting the Progress Report
metrics. My hobby is reviewing the new metric
announcements in early spring and predicting how they will affect school
scores. The work begins when I plan reports
we can add to Datacation that allow for verification and improvement of
scores.
This article explores the DOE defined metrics of excellence and how to maximize their point value. My intent is to help you improve your
progress report score with your current resources. By using data reports in the Datacation
portals or other systems, your staff can satisfy the DOE standardized metrics and still have
time to promote local programs that give your school the personality
and vigor that reflect excellence.
School Environment
This is the section of the Progress Report worth the fewest
points and the only section of the progress report that includes qualitative
data. All of the qualitative data comes
from the school survey results.
From the School
Survey
Communication –
Skedula and Pupil Path can ease the communication burden.
Communication is no longer defined solely as the
spoken word. Skedula includes many
options:
Calendars
– The School calendar appears on the Pupil Path home screen. It informs readers of deadlines, sporting
events, trips and the like. Each
course also has a calendar that apprises students and parents of
assignment due dates.
Messaging
– Parents can send and receive messages via their Pupil Path and personal email
accounts. Students can also send and
receive messages using their account. Messaging permits regular contact with
parents and students. Newsletters and
curricular information can also be sent to parents and students
through the messaging system.
Curriculum
posting – Teachers can create a non-graded assignment that includes
information on upcoming curriculum. This
information will appear on the course calendar that appears on Pupil Path.
Anecdotals
– Share with parents and staff the positive (and sometimes) negative happenings
from classrooms. Anecdotals can be posted simultaneously to
multiple students thus reducing the time spent entering the information. Progress reports are also available in
anecdotal form. All anecdotals can be
customized to ensure that communications with parents are personalized
.
Academic Expectation
– Staff, parents and students must understand that what is expected at your
school is the child’s highest performance level possible. Using the Data Tool tracker reports, High
School Readiness and College Readiness, compare the student’s current course
grades, exam grades and attendance to the measures required to be successful
when the student moves on to the next school level. These reports are designed to facilitate
discussions with your students and their parents of the academic performance
needed to succeed at the next level of study.
The conversation about their child’s success in the future will further
the perception that your school expects the most from the student in your
school and in the future.
Attendance –
Daily attendance comprises 20% of the School Environment
score and is the only quantitative measure in this section. The Skedula Attendance Compliance Report
allows schools to see students who have been marked absent for the day, but
attended classes. This will help your school recognize students who qualify to
have their daily attendance reversed.
Schools define the number of attended classes that triggers the
attendance reversal, so the report can reflect school and DOE policies.
The Skedula Daily Attendance report displays the attendance
records for all students in the school or in any Skedula group. Create a group of low attending students and
use this report to check the progress of the interventions taken to improve
attendance.
Stayed Tuned for Part 2 Next week.
