Georgia Assessment of Performance on School Standards
Developed 3 years ago based on:
• The work of Bob Marzano (meta-analysis of over 25 years of research)
• The work of selected states (Texas, Kentucky, North Carolina and others)
• Expertise of over 2000 collective years of experience of the Division of School Improvement staff (now re-named School and Leader Quality)

Purpose of GAPSS
To measure the degree of implementation of the Georgia School Standards (now re-named the School Keys)
To assist in targeting and addressing areas for improvement in a school

GAPSS Analysis Approaches
• External Approach
• DOA External System Approach
• Local School Internal Approach
![Page 5: Assessment of Georgia School Standards](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56814fe3550346895dbdad51/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
External Approach
• GAPSS are mandatory for schools in NI-6 and are led by GaDOE personnel.
• GAPSS can be done on a voluntary basis and led by GaDOE , RESA, local system personnel who have been trained in the process.
• GAPSS can be done in lieu of the SACS CASI process at the school level.
![Page 6: Assessment of Georgia School Standards](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56814fe3550346895dbdad51/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
DOA External System Approach• Training of selected system and/or school level
administrators in one school system:–Content of the GSS (School Keys)–GAPSS procedures (including video vignettes)
• A GAPSS is done with a single school within the system and conducted by the cadre of trained participants led by GaDOE personnel
• De-briefing after the initial in-system GAPSS• Additional, scheduled GAPSS within the system
led by the system and/or school personnel without GaDOE assistance

Local School Internal Approach
• Training of selected MCSD school level administrators and/or teachers:– Content of the GSS (School Keys)– GAPSS procedures (including video vignettes)
• A GAPSS is done with an identified school within the system and conducted by the cadre of trained participants led by MCSD Central Office personnel.
• De-briefing after the identified school GAPSS• The trainees from the selected schools will schedule a
GAPSS within their school without assistance from MCSD Central Office.

The MCSD GAPSS Model
Initiate the GAPSS Process
Select System and/or School Staff
Conduct Training (School Keys and GAPSS)
Conduct Prototype GAPSS with GaDOE
Debrief after GAPSS is conducted
Schedule in-system GAPSS to be led by In-System Personnel
Schedule GAPSS training for School Administrators/Lead Teachers
to become lead facilitators
Develop five year schedule for DOA External GAPSS Analysis at Individual Schools
Develop a monitoring process for School Action Plans on Identified Target Areas for Improvement
Review System-Level GAPSS Analysis ProcessAnnually and make Adjustments

In All Three Approaches…• Study is based on 4 types of data:
–School Profile (Data)
–Interview
–Observation
–Certified Staff Survey (DOE)

There are a few kinks to work through …….
But Mr. Seifert will take care of
it!

Activity #1Read the notes from a leadership team interview.
If the survey and other school data supported
this, what could you offer as a recommendation
for the school?
After you have finished, peruse some authentic
recommendations (see back) that have been
offered to leadership teams in real GAPSS
Analyses. School Keys: L-4

Activity #2
Review the following 2 pieces of information generated in GAPSS Analysis:– Observation Summary– Survey Data (excerpts)
How would you deal with the discrepancies in the 2
pieces of data?
What patterns do you see that could serve as the basis
for recommendations.
Discuss this in a small group and select someone to
report out from your group.

Data Integration
GAPSS Team will:
–Rate the Standards (Keys) rubrics
–Generate recommendations and commendations
–Prioritize the recommendations and commendations and select the most significant ones that could be target areas for improvement

Activity #3Review the sample target areas chart that was generated from a GAPSS Analysis.
(HANDOUT)
Discuss the contents of the chart in small groups.
Identify the first thing that a leadership team could do after reviewing it.

Benefits of the system-level Approach • A good grounding in the GSS (School Keys)• A renewed sense of mission / purpose at the
system level• Collegiality and collaboration between school
and system level administrators• A systematic approach to improvement based
on the GSS (School Keys)• Gained expertise in data collection, analysis,
interpretation and utilization for improvement• A sustained process of improvement
![Page 20: Assessment of Georgia School Standards](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56814fe3550346895dbdad51/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Capacity Building
In the system approach, there are many more opportunities for capacity-building.
In this approach, school and system personnel learn to fix their own problems.
![Page 21: Assessment of Georgia School Standards](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062217/56814fe3550346895dbdad51/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Capacity Building In either approach, the result is a group of people learning and growing together with a common mission to implement a data-driven process to improve their schools…
A PROFESSIONAL LEARNING
COMMUNITY IS BORN.

Continued Next Steps
• Develop a monitoring process for School Action Plans on Identified Target Areas for Improvement (August 2007)
• Review system-level GAPSS Analysis process annually and make necessary adjustments (throughout year)
