4 components: Content Mastery, Progress, Readiness, Closing the Gaps
closing the gaps: based on expected improvement, content mastery and growth are closely related
PYP overall 85.4 to 66.6
MYP overall 83.6 to 78.8
Content Mastery - ELA rated the highest - Science and Social Studies are only tested once did outperform the state and district ; MYP - gains in ELA, Math, and Social Studies
Readiness - PYP decreased from 82.8 to 81.0; biggest decrease in literacy as measured by lexiles
Progress MYP ELA scores decreased; MYP is lower in Math;
Closing the Gaps - PYP Targets - 2017 set the targets - 3% improvement (ELA .89, Math .98, Science 1.41, Social Studies 1.02); students improve on predecessors not themselves over time
vertical alignment meetings to mitigate this problem in closing the gaps
PYP dropped 18.81 points; MYP dropped 4.76 points
Special Ed - improvement targets at 6% in MYP not in PYP
