261 2008-09 End of Year Report_060409 DataSet 2
Executive Summary The district’s system of benchmark assessments helps the district meet its
obligation to monitor student progress using curriculum-embedded assessments. [Essential Program Component #5]
K-8 English Language Arts Results More than 50% of the students tested during each quarter in 3 of the 9 grades
(grades K,1, and 2) exhibited a proficient mastery of English Language Arts as measured by the benchmark assessments.
More than 50% of the students tested in 2 of the 7 numerically significant ethnic subgroups (Filipino and White) were proficient on each of the quarter’s benchmark assessment.
K-8 Mathematics Results. K-6 proficiency rates were higher for students using the new adoption
(enVision) math curriculum and assessments than those using the old adoption (Harcourt) math curriculum and assessments.
There appeared to be a drop off in middle school math proficiency rates throughout the year as the fourth quarter’s results were generally lower than first quarter’s results for each middle school math benchmark assessment.
However, for the K-8 grade segment, there was an increase in the percentage of proficient students in each of the numerically significant ethnic subgroups throughout the school year except for Pacific Islander students.

General Purpose of Benchmark Assessments To align instruction across the district, and ensure that
instruction is aligned to the adopted standards-based core curriculum.
To inform teachers and administrators on student progress and effectiveness of instruction in the adopted standards-based core curriculum.
To provide timely data to teachers and administrators to make decisions that will improve instruction and student achievement.
To provide data to identify students who need interventions.
To assist in the monitoring of individual student progress.

Specific Purpose of Benchmark Assessments Related to Program Improvement - Essential Program Component #5
LUSD entered Program Improvement in 2004-05 based on its 2003-04 adequate yearly progress.
As a Program Improvement district, LUSD is required to implement the 9 Essential Program Components (9 EPCs) as determined by the State.
Essential Program Component #5 requires the district to use data as the basis of its K-8 student progress monitoring, including the use of curriculum-embedded assessments (e.g. every six to eight weeks) to inform and modify instruction.
