On the Road toContinuous Improvement
Creating the Profile
School Improvement Workshop Seriesin Collaboration with NDE and ESUs
Today’s Outcome
Create and use a profile
• What is a profile?• How do we use it?
http://necipworkshops.wikispaces.com/
• Does your school have a profile?• Is the data “important to know” vs.
“nice to know”?• Is the data easily understood by the average
person?• Is the profile shared with stakeholders?• Does it tell the story of your school?

A PROFILE STORY
PROFILE: Essential Questions
What should it be?
How do we use it?
Ineffective Effective Most Effective CommentsStudent Performance Data
The collection of student performance data meets state and federal requirements but lacks analysis .
Multiple sources of longitudinal performance data (NRT, CRT, classroom assessments, etc.) are clearly organized, disaggregated where appropriate graphically displayed and at least superficially analyzed
In addition to a comprehensive collection and clear presentation of performance data collected over time, the school profile contains a thoughtful analysis of the implications drawn from that data
Demographic Data
The school profile contains little or no student demographic data
The school profile contains disaggregated demographic data and an analysis of the data
The school profile contains comprehensive, disaggregated, and longitudinal demographic data including an analysis of the trends.
Program Data The school profile contains little or no program data
The profile contains program data from multiple sources with analysis of the data
The profile contains comprehensive, longitudinal program data including any analysis of the trends.
Perceptual Data
The profile committee collects no community, staff or student information or collects irrelevant and unorganized community information and does not relate it to school improvement
The profile committee collects, organizes, and presents staff, student and community information relevant to the SIP
The profile committee collects, organizes and clearly presents staff, student and community information, with an analysis of the relation of that information to the SIP
Data Collection & Reporting Process
The school profile contains limited or irrelevant data collected irregularly from a few sources and lacks organizations.
Data collection is an on-going process drawing from many sources. Information is clearly organized and graphically displayed.
The data collection process is comprehensive, continuous, and focused on trend data. Results are appropriately disaggregated, clearly presented, and thoroughly analyzed.
Data Display Display of data is unclear, unexplained, and difficult to interpret.
Data is displayed in clearly labeled graphs and charts.
Data is displayed in clearly labeled graphs and charts accompanied by an explanatory narrative.
Use of Data for Decision-making
School profile data appears unrelated to school improvement decisions
School profile data is analyzed and is generally used to guide goal selection.
The school prepares a description of its strengths and needs based on the school profile. A process of applying these conclusions to decision making and goal setting is documented. Further diagnostic data needs (if any) are identified.
How is your profile now? PROFILE DEVELOPMENT RUBRIC
Creating a Profile
What should it be?– A snapshot of the district from
four separate lenses• Demographic Data• Student Performance Data• Program Data• Perceptual Data
– A living document that is updated annually
Demographic Data
Four Lenses of Data
Perception DataProgram Data
Achievement Data

Decisions
Demographic Data:• Free/reduced lunch status• Parent education level• Student ethnicity• Mobility rate• Discipline referrals,
suspensions, and expulsions• Daily rate of attendance
Four Lenses of Data
Four Lenses of Data
Achievement Data• NeSA• Standardized tests ACT, MAP,
etc. • Local common assessments• Alternative assessment data• Student grades• Portfolios
Four Lenses of Data
Program Data• Class size• Staff years of teaching experience• Organization of the school day
(time allotted to specific subjects)• Relationship of professional
development to the identified needs• Nature and frequency of classroom
assessment
Four Lenses of Data
Perception Data• School climate data• Review of newspaper
editorials and letters• Student and/or parent surveys• School safety data• Volunteerism in the school

Step 1: Determine Data Sources
PerceptionsStudent
AchievementDemographics Program Data
What data sources do you currently collect?
What data do you need to start collecting?
Team Reflection Time
Do you have anything to add to your to-do list?
Creating the Profile
http://www.education.ne.gov/CIPToolkit/creating.html
Sources of Student Performance Data
• Norm-Referenced Test Results• NeSA Results• Common Summative Assessments• Portfolio Summative Data• IEP Achievement Data• Achievement Data from “Non-core” Subjects• Other
Step 2: Include Performance Data
What is the DRS? (Data Reporting System)
Secure Site – through portalhttps://portal.education.ne.gov
Public Site – NDE websitehttp://drs.education.ne.gov
You want to know if certain groups are performing better than others on state testing,
and you would like to know who those students are individually.

Step 6: Organize and Present Data
How should the data be displayed?• Can the displays be easily generated?• Does the district have all the displays of the
data that it needs?• Does it have some that should be
eliminated?• Where is it stored?
CHARACTERISTICS OF DATA DISPLAYS
• Simple
• Neat in appearance
• One graphic per page is ideal-- use no more than two
• Easily understood by all stakeholders
• Have all components necessary to assure comprehension
CHARACTERISTICS OF DATA DISPLAYS (cont.)
• Complete enough to stand alone
• Writing is clear, concise, correct, and complete
• Statements of fact only
• No judgmental statements
Data DisplaysDo your data displays look like something your teachers can understand or will at least discuss if it’s a nice, warm Friday afternoon?
READING SCORES
Our scores improved in all categories
2002n=128/12
2003n=150/17
2004n=149/21
2005n=166/26
2006n=174/33YEARS
McInteer Elementary 5th Grade Terra NovaReading Comprehension Subtest
Chart 1 illustrates the growth on the Reading Comprehension subtest of the Terra Nova over a 5-year period. Baseline year for this assessment was 2002. The test was given to all 5th grade students the first week of each April. The chart also compares the scores of all students to those classified as Limited English Proficient (LEP). Both populations made gains from year 1 to year 5, however there is still a discrepancy between the two populations. A slight decline occurred in year two in both populations. Year two was the last year of the Bluster Day reading series. “All” contains LEP. ASU for ALL group: .64 ASU for LEP: .82
Fourth Grade Reading ScoresSTARS
STARS standard 4.1.3 was used to measure reading comprehension. During the course of four years, the number of students meeting proficiency increased.

Step 7: Reflect On and Analyze Data
•Review the data presented in the profile
•Schedule a staff meeting
•Allow for ample time of review
Consider these Questions
• What can we learn from the data?• What are our strengths and challenges?• Do we have other data to support these
results?• What are the implications of the data?• What will we do as a result of the
implications?

Step 8: Check the Profile for Recommended Components
• Who will create the profile?• When will it be created and updated?• Do you have anything to add to your to-do list?
