Next big job of Academic Committee - SBAC data review and synthesis
David has gotten the SBAC results and shared them with us this afternoon. This will be the next push for the Academic Committee so that we can look at how the students performed. Some high leverage synthesis may be to identify those students who are on the cusp of different scoring bands -specifically those who are right at the edge between below proficiency and proficient, so that perhaps we can do some targeted intervention to move them up a band.
The Academic Committee will review the data between now and next month's meeting, and then do some synthesis next month in order to come with analysis and recommendations
