Student Readiness

• Technology practice

• Pedagogical shifts in assessment to match curricularshifts of Common Core

The Road Ahead: Next-Gen MCAS

• The Next-Gen MCAS, informally called “MCAS 2.0,” will include PARCC items,along with new items specifically created to assess the Massachusettslearning standards.

• MCAS 2.0 will be designed to be taken on a computer. The plan is to phase incomputer-based testing so that computer-based tests are fully administeredstatewide in 2019, with many students participating as well in 2017 (grades 4and 8 statewide) and 2018.

Q: Can you clarify the hold harmless policy for thenext two years?

• A: Districts that administered PARCC in grades 3-8 in spring 2016 are heldharmless for any negative changes in their 2016 school and districtaccountability and assistance levels. The DESE continues to publish schoolpercentiles and other data used in accountability determinations for all schools.

• Schools and districts administering MCAS 2.0 in grades 3-8 in spring 2017 willbe held harmless for any negative changes in their 2017 school and districtaccountability and assistance levels based on those test scores.

• All high schools will continue to administer the grade 10 MCAS in Englishlanguage arts and mathematics, as well as the high school science andtechnology/engineering tests, in 2016 and 2017. The “hold harmless” provisionsdo not apply to high schools that serve only grades 9-12.

10/21/2016

Q: Will the results of PARCC tests in spring 2016 andspring 2017 affect accountability determinations in

2018 and beyond?

A: The district accountability and assistance system uses multiple years ofdata to calculate school percentiles. The state has recognized that the multi-year transition from MCAS to PARCC to MCAS 2.0 and from paper-based tocomputer-based testing will require additional study and analysis and thatschools cannot be placed in a more or less advantageous position based onthe mode of test - paper or computer-based - selected in a given year. Theywill revisit the existing accountability targets and metrics in light of the newtest’s standards and the very recent reauthorization of the federalElementary and Secondary Education Act. Before making any final decisionswith respect to 2018 and beyond, they will consult with educators aroundhe state.

Accountability Levels

• Kane Elementary, Jaworek Elementary, and Whitcomb School, areLevel II status based on not meeting gap narrowing goals

• Richer Elementary and Marlborough High School are at Level Illstatus based on placement in the lowest performing 20% ofsimilar schools

• Thus, the District stays at Level Ill status

The school has purchased asubscription and users abound in all disciplines with an engineering teacher even targeting vocabttlaiy in hisSMART goal. The number of words students mastered put Whitcomb School in the #2 position overall inVocabulaty.com’s Vocabulaty Bowl, behind only Natick High School, and in the #1 position for all middleschools.
