Grinnell High School Student Achievement Data
Definition of termsAIG: Annual Improvement Goals (Set by the
district, must be measurable, approved by the School Improvement Advisory Committee and then by the board)
SIAC: School Improvement Advisory Committee (District Employees, Community Members who look at student achievement data and make a recommendation to the board for student achievement goals).
AYP: Adequate Yearly Progress (NCLB stair-step model of proficiency) which is reported to the state. Schools must meet AYP or go on a watch list, then become a SINA school
District Annual Improvement Goals• All FAY students in grades 4, 8, and 11 will
meet or exceed typical NSS growth on Iowa Testing in math and reading.
• All FAY students in grades 8 and 11 will meet or exceed typical NSS growth on Iowa Testing in science.
• The district will develop a common language and process to assist students in goal setting to promote individual growth K-12.
GHS Reading Data (AIG)In 2010-11, 39 students had a National
Standard Score that was considered less than typical in Reading Comprehension at the 10th Grade level.
29 of those students improved their NSS Reading Score by at least 7 NSS points as 11th Graders (74.4%)
101 out of 136 students made typical growth from 10th – 11th grade (73.9%) .
RESULT: Goal that all students meet or exceed typical NS growth was not met by 35 students in Reading Comprehension.

District Annual Improvement GoalsIncrease the percentage of students whose
reading comprehension NSS are above the typical NSS increase for grades 4, 8, and 11 as compared to their matched cohort FAY NSS scores in grades 3, 7, and 10 in reading comprehension and mathematics, and in grades 8 and 11 as compared to their matched cohort FAY NSS scores in grades 7 and 10 in science, as measured by the appropriate ITBS and ITED subtests.
GHS Science Data (AIG)In 2009-10, 38 students had a National
Standard Score “less than typical” (268) in Science in the 10th Grade.
35 of those students improved their NSS as 11th Graders
However, 24 of the 33 students improved their scores to meet the typical NSS of 275.
RESULT: Goal to increase the percentage of students scoring above the typical NSS in Science was met.
Science: Less Than Typical NSS
Science: Exceeding NSS Growth

At-Risk Information & CriteriaAt-Risk is a term defined by the Dept. of Ed.as
students “who need supports in order to ensure they make sufficient academic progress to graduate.”
Criteria are set locally as:1)Chronic failure (1 core or 1+ elective courses)2)Excessive absenteeism (below building ADA %)3)Disciplinary Referrals (above average for building)4)2 years non-proficient on ITED Reading or Math5)No extracurricular involvement in school events* Students must meet 2 of the previous criteria

Trends . . . What did you see that constituted a trend
(movement of data in one direction or another?)- From our discussion Tuesday, our faculty noted that Reading
Comprehension has lacked focus over the past few years and it would behoove us to review strategies to address this
Without gearing our whole professional development for 2011-12 toward ITED scores, what are some very simple things we could be doing in our classes to help improve these numbers?
- Looking at some different kinds of strategies to help students read for a purpose, be held accountable to the reading, and simply reading more often for a variety of reasons in class will help students get in the habit of reading more in school and to help them understand that this will be an expectation in all of their classes.
Tentative Action Plan for GHSDepartments will continue to look at data from ITED
to determine what skill areas can be addressed seamlessly within existing curriculum and implement strategies to address deficient skills
Reading comprehension strategies will be reviewed and accountability strategies will be introduced to increase the amount of reading done in the content areas
GHS faculty will continue to develop and strengthen relationships with students through the Seminar program to reduce the number of unexcused absences and increase average daily attendance
