Overview

Chancellor’s Regulation A-501 outlines promotion standards for New York City public school students in grades Pre-K through 12, as well as procedures for implementing the promotion policy.

Promotion Policy: Grades Pre-Kindergarten–2Grade(s) Criteria

(ATS Criteria Code) Promotion Standard1,2

Pre-K3 Exempt (EXM)

Students are exempt from the NYC DOE Promotion Policy.

Kindergarten Lower Grade(LGR)

Principals, in consultation with a child’s teacher and parent, make promotion decisions based on whether students have demonstrated progress toward meeting the Primary Literacy Standards and the New York Learning Standards for Mathematics.

1 and 2 Lower Grade(LGR)

Principals make promotion decisions based on whether students have demonstrated progress toward meeting the Primary Literacy Standards and the New York Learning Standards for Mathematics.

1 This policy applies to all grade pre-K–2 students, including English Language Learners and Students with Disabilities. 2 For ELL’s, the decision to promote or retain shall include consideration of the student’s language development; limited English proficiency may not be the basis for retention (Chancellor’s Regulation A-501, p. 4).3 Given the reasons for exempting these students from the promotion policy, a positive outcome is expected in June. Students may be retained with valid reasons and documentation provided by the school.

Promotion Policy: Grades 3-8

Grade(s) Criteria(ATS Criteria Code)

Promotion Standard

3-7 Standard(STD)

Students must achieve a Level 2* or above on both ELA AND Mathematics tests to be promoted to the next grade.

8 Standard(STD)

Students must achieve a Level 2* or above on both the ELA AND Mathematics tests AND attain passing grades in all four core courses (English, mathematics, science, and social studies) to be promoted to the next grade.

*A promotional cut score of “met” can be used to satisfy students’ promotion requirements.

Promotion Policy: English Language Learners• Promotion criteria for ELLs is determined by two factors:

• Number of years enrolled in a United States School System (USSS) (reflected on UYRE)

• Status as a Student with Interrupted Formal Education (SIFE).

7

Business Rules for Calculating Months Enrolled in a US School System• Rules from NYSED Student Information Repository System (SIRS)

Guidance:• One day of enrollment within a month equals one month of enrollment. • Months of enrollment in Pre-K or ungraded elementary are to be

counted. • For students that complete a school year and return the following fall,

summer months are counted in their total enrollment in US schools. • A student’s enrollment will not reset to zero when they discharge to a

non-US school for more than a calendar year.• Their enrollment will stop accruing when they discharge and

resume when/if they re-enroll.

Defining Gains for Grade 8 ELLsJune• NYSESLAT and State ELA results will not be finalized in time to make

June promotion decisions.• To determine if grade 8 ELLs enrolled 2 to four years, have made gains

in ELA schools will administer a promotion portfolio.• The grade 8 Promotion Portfolio Manual contains special direction for

determining performance comparable to expected ELA gains based on the student’s ELA promotion portfolio [performance

August• ELA Gains (from the NYSESLAT and State ELA exams) will be calculated

centrally and loaded into ATS for August promotion decisions.

Promotion Policy: Students with IEPsStudents with IEPs

Grades K-2 (LGR)

Grades 3-8

Promotion decisions for all grade K–2

students, including students with IEPs, follow the general Promotion Policy

guidelines for grades K–2.1

Standard Promotion Criteria (STD) Modified Promotion Criteria (MOD)

No Promotion Criteria (NON)2

If a student’s IEP indicates that he/she is held to standard promotion criteria (or if the student’s IEP does

not indicate any promotion criteria), the standard promotion criteria for

the student’s current grade level will be used to make the promotion

decision.

If a student’s IEP indicates that he/she is held to modified promotion

criteria1, the promotion criteria in the IEP will be

used to make a promotion decision.

Students who participate in NYSAA (do not participate in

State tests) are exempt from the NYC

DOE Promotion Policy.

Testing modifications are different from modified promotion criteria. If a student has testing modifications, he/she could have either standard OR modified promotion criteria.

1Subject to relevant deadlines for establishing promotion criteria.2 Given the reasons for exempting these students from the promotion policy, a positive outcome is expected in June. Students may be retained with valid reasons and documentation provided by the school.

Deadlines for Establishing Promotion Criteria

• The deadlines to establish promotion criteria for students with IEPs in order for it to apply to 2012-2013 promotion decisions are1:• January 31, 2013: For students with existing IEPs.• May 20, 2013: For students initially referred to special education

and students with an existing IEP who are new to the NYC DOE.

• The Promotion Criteria Guidelines for Students with Disabilities in Grades 3–8 provides information on how promotion criteria should be determined, applied, and evaluated.

1These deadlines are based on the date of the IEP conference. Promotion criteria established after this date will be in effect for the 2013-14 school year.

14

Promotion Criteria Discrepancies• Schools were asked to review the Promotion Criteria Report (RPCR

) report to ensure students’ promotion criteria were accurately reflected in ATS. • When incorrect, schools were asked to update applicable

source systems (E.g. SESIS, CAP, UYRE)• Early May: Schools should review RPCR to ensure the accuracy of

promotion criteria for promotion decisions.• If students promotion criteria is incorrect, schools should note

the discrepancy, confirm the correct promotion criteria in the applicable source system (SESIS, CAP, UYRE) and escalate the request for a change of promotion criteria to their network.

15

Promotion Criteria Overrides• The CFN can help schools collect

and process promotion criteria overrides.

Criteria Change Requests Should Include:• Subject Line: Promotion Changes DBN E.g.

Promotion Changes 27Q124• Attach tracker containing this information:

• Student Name (s)• NYC ID(s)• Current criteria and what the criteria

should be changed to.

Types of Promotion

Criteria

Common Core Aligned NYS Assessments and Student Promotion• In past years, promotion decisions for students with standard criteria were

based on students’ state test performance levels (e.g. 1, 2, 3 or 4). • Due to the changes in the tests, it is not possible to estimate students’

performance levels this year. • Instead we will determine promotional cut scores based on student’s raw

scores.• Raw scores are the total number of questions the student answered correctly

out of the total number tested.• Standard promotion criteria students with raw scores in the lowest 10%

(approximately) will be recommended for retention and summer school.• We expect this number to be similar to last year.

• While the overall performance levels on the 2013 tests may be lower, the raw score required to meet promotion standards will be comparable to the 2012 tests.

Common Core Aligned NYS Assessments and Student Promotion• As in year’s past, promotional cut scores will be calculated centrally

and loaded into ATS.• School will be able to view promotional cut scores and other

promotion related student performance data on RASP.• A promotional cut score of “met” can be used to satisfy students’

promotion requirements.

Release of Final NYS Test Results• NYS test results are expected in late August• The release of NYS test results will not impact promotion

decisions, as promotional cut scores will be used to make promotion decisions for the 2012-2013 SY• A decision to promote a student in June, based on the

promotional cut scores, will not be reversed if a student did not achieve a Level 2 on the NYS test(s).

Promotion Portfolios

• A promotion portfolio is a collection of specific exercises that indicate whether a student in grade 3-8 is performing comparable to Proficiency Level 2 on the NYS ELA and/or mathematics exams. • They are not samples of

student work collected over the course of the year.

Portfolio ComponentsELA

• Leveled Text (reading accuracy)• Standard Reading Passage (reading

comprehension)• Independent Writing Activity (writing

process, expression, mechanics)• ELA Class Work (one piece of class work)

Mathematics• Mathematical Inventory• Standard Math Problems• Mathematics Class Work (one piece of

class work)

Overall Portfolio Scores• High Level 2: Eligible for promotion in

June• Level 2: Eligible for promotion in August• Level 1

Who Must Receive a Promotion Portfolio• Students who do not meet the NYS test promotion standard

• Students whose cut score indicates they did not meet in ELA and/or math

• Are missing a cut score (for one or both exams)• Grade 8 ELLs enrolled in a US schools system for at least two

years, but no more than four years (MT8)• Used to determine ELA gains in the absence of NYS ELA

and NYSESLAT results in June.

Students Recommended for Promotion Portfolios• This year, students recommended for a promotion portfolio

will appear in red on PPSC.• The recommendation is intended to:

• Help schools administer and prepare promotion portfolios in a timely and targeted manner.

• Strategically balance the promotion portfolio workflow and reduce the amount of portfolios that need to be prepared. between the release of promotion cut scores and the deadline for principals to enter promotion decisions (3 days).

Students Recommended for Promotion Portfolios• Who is recommended for a promotion portfolio?

• Students who scored and Level 1 or Level 2 on the 2012 NYS exams• Students who were promoted on the basis of a promotion portfolio for

the 2011-2012 SY (Appeal Code 1)• Portfolio recommendations are not exhaustive.

• Note: Grade 3 students who have never taken the NYS exams and new admits will likely not be flagged as recommended using the above rationale.

• Schools should administer additional promotion portfolios to students who they feel will not meet their promotion standards on the NYS exams based on academic performance throughout the year.

Printing the Promotion Portfolio Summary Sheet• Schools will print the

Promotion Portfolio Summary Sheet from ATS (PPSC) to record student’s scores on the promotion portfolio.

• The summary sheet will be scanned into ATS (UPSC) to populate promotion portfolio data.

Enter ‘Y’ to Print Portfolio Scan Sheet

Individual Portfolio Component Scores

Portfolio Status

Steps to Prepare a Promotion Portfolio (Teacher)For June Promotion Decisions 1. Access materials needed from the Promotion section of the Principals’ Portal.

Teachers will need to download two documents for the applicable grades: • Promotion Portfolio Manual • Promotion Portfolio Blackline Masters

2. Print the student’s Promotion Portfolio Summary Sheet from ATS (PPSC).3. Indicate whether the portfolio is being completed for ELA and/or math.4. Administer the portfolio components using the Manual and relevant sheets from

the Blackline Masters.5. Score student responses for each component and calculate overall score for the

promotion portfolio and record results on the Promotion Portfolio Summary Sheet.6. Use the checklist included in the Blackline Masters to assemble the promotion

portfolio.

For August Promotion Decisions 7. Add the August Update Sheet and relevant evidence as outlined in the Manual.

(This sheet is not scanned. Staple the sheet to the student’ portfolio)

Steps to Prepare a Promotion Portfolio (Principal)For June Promotion Decisions 1. Ensure that all necessary evidence is included in the promotion portfolio

• Use checklist provided from the Blackline Masters.2. Review the evidence submitted and make a final determination on the promotion portfolio

score (Level 1, Level 2, or High Level 2) and sign and date the bottom of the Promotion Portfolio Summary Sheet.

3. Scan Promotion Portfolio Summary Sheet into ATS to populate portfolio results in ATS (UPSC).

4. Deliver only portfolios of students who score High Level 2 and High Level 1 (for ELLs with MT8 Criteria) for students whom you are recommending for promotion.

For August Promotion Decisions 5. Review the August Update Sheet and make a final determination on the portfolio score

(Level 1 or Level 2), and sign and date the bottom of the August Update Sheet.• If the overall portfolio score has changed, you can update the score on UPSC.

Example: Student work over summer school shows student has moved from Level 1 to Level 2.

6. Deliver only portfolios of students who score Level 2 and for whom you are recommending promotion to community superintendents.

Promotion Portfolios

• Principals should only submit high quality, complete promotion portfolios for review• All components should be included • The classwork items should reflect the student’s best work

• It is recommended that the student work sample is from one of the school’s Common Core units

• Superintendents review promotion portfolios and may confirm or change the score of the promotion portfolio in ATS. • Once superintendents review a promotion portfolio score in ATS,

schools will be prevented from printing a new Portfolio Summary Sheet (PPSC) or changing promotion portfolio scores (UPSC).

TG8C: Core Course Outcomes and Class Performance

Grades 3-7 •Schools will enter ELA/ESL and math performance in ATS for ELLs with multiple (MLT) criteria.

Grade 8•Starting June 3, core course outcomes that are finalized in STARS will transfer to ATS to populate the TG8C function. •Schools will also be able to manually update TG8C to reflect grade 8 students performance in their core courses.

Enter Core Course Outcomes (‘P’ or ‘F’)

33

Promotion Data Freeze• June 1: ATS will ‘freeze’ the DBN (promotion DBN) of all

students. • Schools will be responsible for making promotion decisions for all

students on their register at this time. • New registrants (not including transfers) will be added to schools’

promotion screens on an ongoing basis.

• June 10-12: Once a principal decision is entered, all pieces of promotion data will freeze for the remainder of the promotion process (through August promotion decisions).

June Promotion Decision Timeline: Grades K-8Date1 Action Step

May 7 –June 7 • Schools prepare standardized promotion portfolios and enter all promotion portfolio scores into ATS.

• Principals submit only High Level 2 and High Level 1 (for ELLs with MT8 criteria) promotion portfolios to superintendents for students who are being recommended for promotion.

June 3-June 7 Grade 8: Ensure core course outcomes are entered in TG8C.Grades 3-7: Ensure ELA/ESL and math class performance information is entered in TG8C.

June 10 Anticipated release of promotional cut scores in ATS.

June 10-12 Principals enter promotion decisions for ALL students in ATS (PDEC).

June 10-12 Schools administer promotion portfolios to students who were not previously administered one and who did not meet a promotional cut score in ELA and/or math and require one for promotion. If the portfolio is a High Level 2, they may recommend the student for promotion and should submit the portfolio to the superintendent for review.

June 12-14 Superintendents enter June promotion decisions in ATS. Once a final decision is entered, it will enable school to begin printing June decisions letters and summer school letters.

June 17-26 Schools print standardized June decisions letter(for students who were not promoted) from ATS and send letters home to families.
