*Growth — EL students who take the WIDA ACCESS proficiency test are included in the calculation for reading. There is a separate English Learner Growth Value Table that gives points for students growing from the previous year’s ACCESS composite score to the current year. These points are combined with the points given in reading for all students and then divided by the total number of student scores.

ACHIEVEMENT GAP
KASC Statement: It is vital for the SBDM Council, educators, students, families, and communities to keep the focus on closing achievement gaps. Our students, schools, communities, state, and country are negatively impacted when we can’t reach and teach each student. Councils should be analyzing gaps for groups even though it’s not included as an indicator.
