Overview

RULE:

6A-1.099822

School Improvement Rating for Alternative Schools.

PURPOSE:

To conform rule language to statutory changes and create a new school improvement rating calculation and categories for alternative schools and ESE centers, and to propose cut scores based on results of the initial learning gains calculation.

SUMMARY:

School Improvement Ratings are annually produced by the Bureau of Accountability Reporting in lieu of School Grades for ESE Centers and Alternative Schools that elect them or that do not indicate a preference. The proposed method for calculating ratings is more aligned with the newly implemented school grades rule, Rule 6A-1.09981, F.A.C., and the proposed cut scores for determining a rating are based on the percentage of points earned for the components for which a school has sufficient data.
