Use the Expected Gains Formula

42
Expected Gains Formula

The expected gains formula recognizes schools for
making progress toward meeting the performance
targets

43
The Formula

The number of students scoring below meet
standard multiplied by the average percentage of
gain demonstrated across the state or 2
(whichever is the greater of the two) plus the
number of students meeting or exceeding standard.

44
Example
112 students tested -36 students who met or
exceeded standard 76 students who did not meet
standard Proficiency rate 32 (36/112) Gain
across state 4 Step 1 76 X 4 3.04 Step
2 36 3 39 students Step 3 39/112 34.8
or 35 Expected Proficiency Rate for Next Year
35
45
Benefits of Expected Gain

The expected gain formula recognizes schools for
making progress toward meeting the performance
targets
Example A school moving from 35 to 51 of
students meeting or exceeding standard on the
reading assessment which has a 2008 target of
75.6 (K-8).

46
Pilot Program 2007-2008

91 schools accredited on improvement
Included 33 schools that could have moved to
conditionally accredited at the end of 2007-2008
assessment cycle
67 (of the 91) chose to participate in the pilot
program
Of the 33 that could have moved to conditionally
accredited, 21 are anticipated to meet the
performance targets. The remaining 12 will
continue to use the expected gains and will
remain on accredited on improvement.

47
Expected Gains Information

Utilization of the expected gains formula is
optional
School is eligible if
Did not meet QPA performance target(s) for one
year, is accredited on improvement, is
conditionally accredited or not accredited
Submits integrated improvement plan which
outlines the schools commitment to redesign
their delivery system to increase the likelihood
of improved student achievement
Participates in a KSDE sponsored technical
assistance peer review of the plan
As the AYP targets continue to climb toward 100
by 2014, more and more schools will have the
opportunity to participate in the expected gains
component of QPA
