CMAS is the sole test that is used to evaluate a school. I know that there are a variety of opinions about this, but that is how School Performance Ratings are determined. In addition, state testing is our public face. Anyone looking to move into the area will review the Jenkins School Performance Framework to see how we rank compared to other schools and districts. Check out the following article: Test Scores and Housing Costs:  \n[https://economix.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/04/19/test-scores-and-housing-costs/](https://economix.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/04/19/test-scores-and-housing-costs/)  \nAt Jenkins, we have avery talented student and teacher population; we arevery fortunate. As a result, we only need our students to try on the exam. This is not something that is meant tobe stressful. Again, we just need our students to try their best and to complete all parts of the exam.  \nIfa school is rated poorly due to low state test scores, there can be negative consequences per the Colorado Department of Education. Ifa school falls into a Turnaround Plan or Priority Improvement Plan due to low test scores and remains in that status for multiple years, the accountability pathways include charter school conversion, school closure, and/or removal of accreditation.  \nWhy?  \n• We can see how a child is performing relative to other students at Jenkins Middle School, within the district, and state.  \n• It prepares students for standardized assessments that they will be required to take in high school, college (SAT, ACT, LSAT, MCAT, etc.) or other vocational programs.  \n• We can make informed decisions and choices for our students. Test data is used by administration and staff to drive instruction/curriculum and professional development choices.  \n• Test data may identify learning gaps that can be addressed.  \n• Identification of districts and schools that have struggling students, so help can be provided.  \nHow are the results used?  \nAs part ofa BODY of EVIDENCE, state assessments are used to:  \n• drive instruction for a student  \n• identify targeted interventions  \n• place students in appropriate classes at the middle school level as well as high school  \n• identify gifted and talented students during the identification process  \n• determine effectiveness regarding instruction and determine whether Jenkins instructional practices are effective  \nWhat happens with the data?  \n• CDE is committed to ensuring that data on individual students is secure. CDE does not report individual student data to the federal government  ; the department has strict policies and procedures in place to maintain data security.  \n• The results of CMAS are the backbone of the state’s accountability system. The state uses CMAS data to populate the annual school and district performance frameworks which is the result in accreditation ratings for each school and district.  \n[Please contact Tony Jackowski with questions:](Please contact Tony Jackowski with questions: anthony.jackowski@d11.org)[ ](Please contact Tony Jackowski with questions: anthony.jackowski@d11.org)[anthony.jackowski@d11.org](Please contact Tony Jackowski with questions: anthony.jackowski@d11.org)[ ](Please contact Tony Jackowski with questions: anthony.jackowski@d11.org)[719 650-7251](719 650-7251)  \nExcerpts taken from the CDE link:  \n[http://www.cde.state.co.us/communications/stateassessmentsandacademicachievement](http://www.cde.state.co.us/communications/stateassessmentsandacademicachievement)","cbCaiobXsWiGYkYE","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiobXsWiGYkYE","pdf",100857,"English","# CMAS Overview\n## Purpose of CMAS\n## How Results Are Used\n## What Happens With the Data\n## Potential Consequences","[{\"question\":\"When will CMAS begin at Jenkins?\",\"answer\":\"CMAS begins in the second week of April at Jenkins.\"},{\"question\":\"How does CMAS affect school performance ratings?\",\"answer\":\"CMAS is the sole test used to evaluate a school, and the results help determine school and district performance frameworks and accreditation ratings.\"},{\"question\":\"How are CMAS results used for students and instruction?\",\"answer\":\"Results guide instruction and targeted interventions, help place students into appropriate classes, and may identify gifted and talented students and learning gaps.\"}]","ParentCMASLetter - CMAS State Assessment Information | PDF",1790962383]
