ACADEMIC AFFAIRS COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM: 3.C.1 DATE: October 10, 2009 ****************************************************************************** SUBJECT: High School to College Transition Report Since 1995 the Board of Regents have been providing data to South Dakota school districts on the first year performance of their most recent high school graduates who enter the Regental system. During the past 14 years, a common reporting template and narrative report have been developed exploring data of interest for assisting high school personnel (school board presidents, superintendents, and principals) as they make curriculum decisions for current high school students. The individual high school reports (see Attachment 1 for an example) depicted remedial placement, first year academic performance and course taking patterns, as well as enrollments in the six Regental institutions. This past year a High School to College Progression and Completion report was developed to provide school districts with a more comprehensive overview of their high school graduates performance in the Regental system (e.g., 2 nd year progression and performance, CAAP performance, and 4 & 6 year graduation rates). The data in both the individual and narrative reports depicted student performance in relation to the ACT College Readiness Benchmarks. The individual reports high schools received were also designed with a more user-friendly approach, and the goal for this year’s High School to College Transition report is to reformat the printouts the various school districts received (see Attachment II). New to this document is a division of student academic performance based on ACT College Readiness Benchmarks, as well as Opportunity Scholarship and Regents Scholar status. ACT performance on each of the sub-scores is also provided along with student attempted and completed course taking patterns. In the end, the goal of the revised report is to further improve the ongoing relationship we have fostered with school district personnel by providing access to more meaningful data about their high school graduates. A new narrative report is also being developed for review at the October board meeting, and data will be drawn from the individual campus reports that are provided in Attachment II. AAC representatives are asked to review these data to evaluate institutional representations in the report itself.

ACADEMIC AFFAIRS COUNCIL

AGENDA ITEM: 3.C.1

DATE: October 10, 2009 ****************************************************************************** SUBJECT: High School to College Transition Report

Since 1995 the Board of Regents have been providing data to South Dakota school districts on the first year performance of their most recent high school graduates who enter the Regental system. During the past 14 years, a common reporting template and narrative report have been developed exploring data of interest for assisting high school personnel (school board presidents, superintendents, and principals) as they make curriculum decisions for current high school students. The individual high school reports (see Attachment 1 for an example) depicted remedial placement, first year academic performance and course taking patterns, as well as enrollments in the six Regental institutions.

This past year a High School to College Progression and Completion report was developed to

provide school districts with a more comprehensive overview of their high school graduates performance in the Regental system (e.g., 2nd year progression and performance, CAAP performance, and 4 & 6 year graduation rates). The data in both the individual and narrative reports depicted student performance in relation to the ACT College Readiness Benchmarks. The individual reports high schools received were also designed with a more user-friendly approach, and the goal for this year’s High School to College Transition report is to reformat the printouts the various school districts received (see Attachment II). New to this document is a division of student academic performance based on ACT College Readiness Benchmarks, as well as Opportunity Scholarship and Regents Scholar status. ACT performance on each of the sub-scores is also provided along with student attempted and completed course taking patterns. In the end, the goal of the revised report is to further improve the ongoing relationship we have fostered with school district personnel by providing access to more meaningful data about their high school graduates. A new narrative report is also being developed for review at the October board meeting, and data will be drawn from the individual campus reports that are provided in Attachment II. AAC representatives are asked to review these data to evaluate institutional representations in the report itself.

One additional informational item for review by representatives of AAC is an analysis of the

total number of high school graduates from each county who eventually entered into the Regental system during the 2008-09 academic year. Questions have often emerged regarding the total percentage of South Dakota high school graduates that enroll within the Regental system. To respond to these questions, data from the high school transition report were compared with Department of Education data to depict high school and county level participation. Attachment IV depicts a spatial map that was generated using these data.
