Framing Part I of Data Presentation
● Our school is doing well and remains focused on continuous improvement
● Top students continue to achieve at top levels of performance
● Revised assessments do not have comparative data
● There is an “implementation dip” whenever assessments are revised that is taken into account when looking at data
● Decisions are made based on several sources of data

PSAT/NMSQT (redesigned)Preliminary SAT/National Merit
Scholarship Qualifying Test
➢ College and Career Readiness with a focus on Algebra
➢ Administered in-school to every grade 10 and grade 11 student.
➢ Grade 10 – encouraged to take the exam without much/any prep. The score report received provides detailed feedback.
➢ Grade 11 – encouraged to look carefully at feedback report from their grade 10 test performance. Grade 11 scores are used for National Merit Scholarship Qualifying.
➢ Redesigned PSAT offers detailed and personalized plans for improving performance
10
PSAT/NMSQT (redesigned)Summary
➢ The redesigned PSAT does not allow for multi-year comparison
➢ (Evidence-Based Reading & Writing) ERW performance stronger than math
➢ Math performance is lower than ERW across the state
➢ Plans are underway to disaggregate results, track math course history, and develop ways to address weak skill areas especially in Algebra
➢ One intervention path: utilize study/lab periods to provide units connecting and reinforcing math/science skills
