FAQs

How is the final rating determined in the 2024 Preliminary School Performance Framework?

Points earned across all indicators determine the final accreditation rating for a district or the final plan type for a school. Cut points set by the State Board of Education define the resulting rating level.

What participation requirements can affect the overall rating?

Failure to meet test participation, safety, and finance assurances may lower a rating by one level. Under state policy, the overall accountability participation rate uses 95% participation, while certain parent-excused students do not impact that rate.

What indicators does the framework use to evaluate academic and readiness performance?

The framework evaluates Academic Achievement, Academic Growth, and Postsecondary & Workforce Readiness. Each area includes specific measurement tables, participation rates, points earned/eligible, and indicator ratings.
