Julesburg Re-1 School District will enter its 6th year of being Accredited with a Priority Improvement
Plan on July 1, 2017. In addition, Destinations Career Academy of Colorado, a multi-district online school
authorized by the district, is entering its 6th year of being in Priority Improvement or Turnaround status. This
report constitutes CDE’s formal recommendation for the school district and for the online school. The State
Board of Education is required, by law, to direct action to the district’s local school board prior to June 30,
2017.
CDE Recommendation
Pursuant to the Education Accountability Act of 2009, the Commissioner of Education is required to
provide a recommendation to the State Board of Education for districts and schools at the end of the
accountability clock. For both the district and school level action, the Commissioner recommends partial
closure for Destinations Career Academy of Colorado in Julesburg Re-1 School District based upon a review
of the district’s data, leadership, culture, academic systems, and Unified Improvement Plan. Specifically, the
Commissioner recommends that district close the middle school portion
(grades 6-8) of Destinations Career Academy. The Commissioner’s
conversations with district leadership, as well as many Department staff
conversations over the past several months also informed this
recommendation. In addition, the Department took into consideration
the State Review Panel’s final recommendation and the district’s own
proposal to close the middle grades of the online school.
Background
Julesburg Re-1 School District serves approximately 600 students, and is physically located in far
northeast Colorado. Compared to the state as a whole, Julesburg Re-1 School District has a higher
percentage of economically disadvantaged students and lower percentages of minority students and English
learners. In 2016-17, 55% of the district’s students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, 35% were
minorities, and 25% were classified as English learners.
Julesburg Re-1 operates three schools: two traditional, brick-and-mortar schools that serve students
from the local community, and one online school that enrolls students from across the state. One of the
brick-and-mortar schools, Julesburg Elementary School, serves students in Kindergarten through 6th grade.
The other, Julesburg High School, serves students in grades 7 through 12. Destinations Career Academy of
Colorado, a multi-district online school, serves students in grades 6 through 12. The online school was
formerly known as Insight School of Colorado at Julesburg.
Julesburg Re-1 was Accredited with a Priority Improvement Plan from 2010 through 2014, and in
2016 received an Accredited with Priority Improvement: Low Participation rating. Since 2010, the district’s
overall performance has largely been dictated by the performance of the online school. Both Julesburg
Elementary School and Julesburg High School maintained Performance Plans each year from 2010 through
2014. In contrast, Destinations Career Academy of Colorado earned a Turnaround Plan in 2010 and 2011,
and a Priority Improvement Plan in each year from 2012 through 2014. Neither Julesburg Elementary School
4
nor Julesburg High School had a sufficient amount of data to determine a performance rating in 2016 due to
participation rates. Destinations Career Academy again earned a Priority Improvement Plan in 2016.

Key Conditions for Success
Based on conversations with district and school leaders, a thorough review of state data, and a review
of the district’s Unified Improvement Plan (UIP), it is clear to the Department that the district’s most
significant challenges are focused in the operation and performance of their online school, Destinations
Career Academy of Colorado. The Department believes that the following conditions must be in place for
the online school to see successful outcomes for its students. These conditions are pulled from the district’s
Major Improvement Strategies in the district’s UIP, thus the school and district are already on their way
toward implementing these strategies.
Focus on the High School Career and Technical Education Mission. Closing the middle school portion
of the school will permit school leaders and staff to concentrate their attention on fulfilling the mission of
the high school to prepare all students for successful careers. The high school began offering career
pathways in Health Sciences, Business and IT in the 2016-17 school year. The school is pursuing formal
Career and Technical Education (CTE) certification for the programs and its instructors, and the school will
offer additional pathways focused on agriculture and STEM next year. The CTE pathways, if implemented
well, can be a mechanism for improving student engagement and graduation rates at the high school.
Academic Systems. The online school, including the high school grades, continues to see students
falling below state expectations on academic achievement and academic growth in both English language
arts (ELA) and math, according to the state performance frameworks. As mentioned in the district’s UIP,
Destinations Career Academy needs to continue to focus on implementing data-driven instruction to identify
gaps in student learning and target interventions to those students. Another strategy the school should
continue to pursue is using class attendance data and other course progress data to track student success
5
and provide support where needed to keep students engaged in the online school throughout the school
year.
District systems of support. The district is working in collaboration with school leadership to support
the needed improvements at the online school. District leadership recognizes the need to close the middle
grades of the school to focus on the high school, which has seen improvements in the past several years in
student achievement, dropout rates and graduation rates. To ensure that the high school continues to
improve and stays off of the accountability clock, the district should continue to engage with school
leadership and with the management organization, K12, Inc. on monitoring the progress of student
outcomes and the implementation of the CTE pathways. School leadership has established a regular
schedule for reviewing student data with school staff, with district staff and with K12. Those progress
monitoring processes should continue to be implemented with fidelity.
Rationale for Recommendation
CDE is recommending partial school closure for Julesburg School District based on the key conditions
needed for success, the State Review Panel recommendation, staff conversations with the district and the
district’s own proposal for closure. The Department has reviewed the district’s draft school closure plan and
finds that the plan meets the statutory requirements for a school closure plan and provides a clear process
for communicating with staff, families and the community about the closure. The plan also conveys that the
district will support affected families in transitioning to a different school, whether that school be their local
district-run school, a charter school or a different online school.
The State Review Panel’s evaluation, conducted in spring 2015, recommended giving the school an
additional two years “to provide evidence that they have clearly defined the purpose of the school and to
identify students they can serve within the system of programming and services offered versus those they
cannot serve to ensure students achieve their goals.” The Panel concluded that if the school was able to do
that, there should be signs of improvement in student data. It has been nearly two years since that
recommendation was written, and CDE finds that there have been incremental improvements reported for
the high school, but not for the middle school. While the graduation rate is still extremely low, it doubled in
two years from 15.2% in 2014 to 36.2% in 2016. The high school also earned enough points on the state
performance framework that it would have received an Improvement plan type in 2016 if the middle school
results are removed (according to CDE calculations). The high school’s rating in 2014 would have been
Priority Improvement if considered separate from the middle school. Further, the school has refined its
mission to focus on high school career and technical education (CTE) pathways, and there is reason to
believe that the CTE focus fills a need in the online choice community.
For these reasons, the Department concludes that, as the Panel noted, the school has identified that
they can continue serving and offering value to high school students, whereas the school is not well
positioned to continue serving middle school students. When looking at the data for the middle school
portion of the online school, the middle school dropped from Priority Improvement to Turnaround from
2014 to 2016. In addition, there are a number of online schools that have higher ratings according to the
state School Performance Frameworks that could be options for the middle school students (see Table 2).
Specifically, there are eight schools that serve middle school grades that earned Performance Plans in 2016.

Alternative pathway options
CDE has also reviewed the other potential pathway options—innovation status, conversion of a
district-run school to a charter school, district reorganization and external management. At this juncture,
CDE does not recommend that Julesburg School District seek innovation status for Destinations Career
Academy of Colorado because there are not district or state policies that are preventing the school from
implementing the needed turnaround efforts. As a multi-district online school, Destinations Career Academy
already receives a great deal of flexibility and autonomy under the state statute. Similarly, converting the
online school to an online charter school would not fundamentally change current practices and would not
solve the underlying performance problems.
Destinations Career Academy is already operated by an external management organization, K12,
Inc. The school was under two different management operators from 2008 until 2011, when it was then
acquired by K12. CDE has not found evidence that changing the management entity at this juncture would
result in any better outcomes. The current school management has put some promising initiatives into
place, particularly around the CTE pathways for the high school, data-driven instruction and regular progress
monitoring. Changing school management may disrupt current systems in a way that would be more
harmful than beneficial at this time.
The State Review Panel also recommended that the current management organization remain in
place to continue the “promising changes” being implemented, with the caveat that a “failure to make
meaningful improvements within the next two years would indicate a larger systemic problem; in that case,
the [Panel] recommends closure.” As mentioned above, the performance has not improved at the middle
school level in the past two years, while outcomes have incrementally improved for the high school. Thus,
CDE recommends partial closure with the current management organization, K12, remaining in place for the
operation of the high school.

Overview
Julesburg Re-1 School District serves approximately 600 students, and is physically located in
northeast Colorado. Compared to the state as a whole, Julesburg Re-1 School District has a higher
percentage of economically disadvantaged students and lower percentages of minority students and English
learners. In 2016-17, 55% of the district’s students qualified for free or reduced-price lunch, 35% were
minorities, and 25% were classified as English learners.
Julesburg Re-1 operates three schools: two traditional, brick-and-mortar schools that serve students
from the local community, and one online school that enrolls students from across the state. One of the
brick-and-mortar schools, Julesburg Elementary School, serves students in Kindergarten through 6th grade.
The other, Julesburg High School, serves students in grades 7 through 12. Destinations Career Academy of
Colorado, the online school, serves students in grades 6 through 12. The online school was formerly known
as Insight School of Colorado at Julesburg. Specific information about the enrollment and demographics of
the different schools is included below.
Julesburg Re-1 was Accredited with a Priority Improvement Plan from 2010 through 2014, and in
2016 received an Accredited with Priority Improvement: Low Participation rating. Since 2010, the district’s
overall performance has largely been dictated by the performance of the online school. Both Julesburg
Elementary School and Julesburg High School maintained Performance Plans each year from 2010 through
2014. In contrast, Destinations Career Academy of Colorado earned a Turnaround Plan in 2010 and 2011,
and a Priority Improvement Plan in each year from 2012 through 2014. Neither Julesburg Elementary School
nor Julesburg High School had a sufficient amount of data to determine a performance rating in 2016 due to
participation rates. Destinations Career Academy earned a Priority Improvement Plan in 2016, triggering the
school to enter Year 6 on July 1, 2017.
District and School Enrollment Patterns
Understanding why Destinations Career Academy of Colorado has a determinant effect on
Julesburg’s overall district performance rating depends in part on understanding how student enrollments
are distributed between schools within the district. In 2016-17, more than half of Julesburg’s students were
enrolled at Destinations Career Academy: 347 students, compared to 133 at Julesburg Elementary School
and 109 at Julesburg High School.1 The 347 online students are considered to be Julesburg’s students since
the district authorizes the online school; however, only a handful of the online school’s students live within
the district’s boundaries.
Table 3 shows the enrollments across Julesburg’s three schools from the 2010-2011 school year
through the 2016-17 school year. While the enrollment numbers at the brick-and-mortar schools have
remained relatively stable over this time period, enrollments at the online school have actually declined
1 The percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch at Destinations Career Academy is similar to the percentages at the brick-and-mortar schools. The percentages of minority students and English learners are also similar.

significantly, so that they now represent a proportionally smaller share of the overall district enrollments. At
highest point, more than 85% of the district’s students were enrolled in the online school.

When it comes to understanding the impact of Destinations Career Academy on Julesburg’s district
performance rating, the overall enrollment numbers only tell part of the story. It is also necessary to look at
the distribution of enrollments across grade levels within Destinations Career Academy. Table 4 shows that
the majority of students at the online school have been enrolled in grades 10 through 12. While the
concentration of students in these grade levels has become less extreme as the overall enrollments at the
school have declined, the pattern was particularly pronounced up through the 2014-15 school year.
The distribution of student enrollments at Destinations Career Academy has a significant influence
on Julesburg’s district-level performance outcomes due to the structure of the indicators that are used to
determine performance ratings. For years 2010 through 2014, the frameworks reflected the achievement
and growth of students only in grades 3 through 10 (grades in which the state assessment was
administered). The 2016 framework reflects the achievement and growth of only those students in grades 3
through 9. Because of this, a large proportion of students enrolled at Destinations Career Academy have not
been represented in the achievement and growth metrics used to rate district performance outcomes. On

these indicators, the representation of students at the district’s brick-and-mortar schools has been nearly
proportional to the representation of students at the online school, despite the fact that the overall
enrollments at the online school have been much larger than the enrollments at the brick-and-mortar
schools.
The achievement and growth indicators only make up part of the district performance frameworks,
however. More than a third of a district’s accreditation rating is determined by its performance on the Post-
Secondary and Workforce Readiness indicator. A district’s rating on this indicator has historically been
derived from graduation and dropout rates, which capture outcomes for all students in grades 9 through 12,
as well as from results on the Colorado ACT, which is administered to all 11th grade students.2 On this
indicator, the disproportionality between enrollments in Julesburg’s online high school compared to
enrollments in the brick-and-mortar high school has been very apparent. The online school has not met
state expectations on the PWR indicator in any year, and the district rating, as a result, has consistently held
a “Does Not Meet” rating for the PWR indicator. This is discussed in the sections below, which review the
overall performance ratings and ratings on individual performance indicators for the district and each of its
schools over the past six accreditation cycles.
District and School Performance Framework Ratings
Table 5 shows the performance ratings and percentages of points earned for the district and each
school for 2010 through 2016. For the district as a whole, the percentage of points earned has trended
downward from 2010 to 2014. Points earned on the framework in 2016 are not comparable to prior years
due to adjustments in the performance frameworks. Over the same time period, both Julesburg Elementary
School and Julesburg High School have maintained Performance ratings, though neither school had
sufficient data for CDE to determine a performance rating in 2016 due to low participation rates on the state
assessment. The table illustrates that the overall performance ratings for the district have largely mirrored
the ratings for Destinations Career Academy of Colorado, which has remained at Turnaround and Priority
Improvement, and which, like the district, will be entering its sixth year on the clock as of July 1, 2017.
In 2010 through 2012, the district did earn enough points for an Improvement Plan type, but had its
rating lowered because it did not meet the test participation requirements (due to low participation rates at
the online school). Table 6 depicts the participation rates for the district and each of its schools over time.
The district did meet participation requirements in both 2013 and 2014. In 2016, the district had low
participation rates but nearly all non-test cases were parent excusals, and so the “Accountability
Participation Rate” was above 95% at the district and each of its schools, and no ratings were lowered.
2 In 2016, the PWR indicator also included matriculation rates. In 2017, the PWR indicator will report results from the SAT in place of the ACT.

District and School Academic Performance Trends
Table 7, below, shows the ratings earned for Julesburg Re-1 and each of its schools on the Academic
Achievement, Academic Growth, and Post-Secondary and Workforce Readiness indicators from 2010
through 2016. On the Academic Achievement indicator, Julesburg Elementary School and Julesburg High
School maintained “Meets” ratings from 2010 through 2014. Destinations Career Academy had a “Does Not
Meet” rating on the Academic Achievement indicator in 2010, and Approaching” ratings from 2011 through
2014; in 2016 the school earned a “Does Not Meet” rating again. The district’s rating on the Achievement
indicator tracked the ratings of the brick-and-mortar schools from 2010 through 2012, but fell to
“Approaching” in 2013 and 2014 and “Does Not Meet” in 2016.

In 2016, neither Julesburg Elementary School nor Julesburg High School had enough data to
determine ratings on the Academic Achievement indicator. For the two schools combined, fewer than 20
students had valid scores on the 2016 Math and English Language Arts assessments based on the non-
participation in the assessments. More than two-thirds of the scores used to determine the district’s 2016
Academic Achievement rating came from students at Destinations Career Academy. Thus, the district’s 2016
rating on the Academic Achievement rating was consistent with the rating earned by Destinations Career
Academy—both earned a “Does Not Meet” rating.
On the Academic Growth indicator, Julesburg Elementary School earned “Meets” ratings from 2010
through 2012 and an “Approaching” Rating in 2013 and 2014. Julesburg High School had a “Meets” rating in
13
2010, “Exceeds” ratings in 2011 and 2012, and “Meets” ratings in 2013 and 2014. Except for a “Does Not
Meet” rating in 2011, Destination Career Academy maintained an “Approaching” rating on the Academic
Growth indicator across the 2010 through 2016 time period.
In 2016, the district rating was more heavily influenced by Destinations Career Academy, as neither
Julesburg Elementary School nor Julesburg High School had enough data to determine growth ratings due to
non-participation. Both the district and Destinations Career Academy had an “Approaching” rating on the
Academic Growth indicator in 2016.
As noted above, more than a third of a district’s accreditation rating is determined by its
performance on the Post-Secondary and Workforce Readiness (PWR) indicator. It is with this indicator that
Destinations Career Academy has the greatest impact on Julesburg’s district rating. Table 7 shows that
Julesburg High School has earned “Meets” ratings on the PWR indicator in every year from 2010 through
2016. In contrast, Destinations Career Academy has earned a “Does Not Meet” rating each year. While one
might expect that the district ratings would fall somewhere in between the ratings of these two schools,
because of enrollment trends they have in fact mirrored the ratings of the online high school directly, which
is described in more detail below.
Post-Secondary and Workforce Readiness (PWR) Data
Examining the graduation rates for Julesburg Re-1 School District and its two high schools helps to
illustrate why Destinations Career Academy has a determinant influence on Julesburg’s district-level
performance. Table 8 shows the graduation rates for the 4-, 5-, 6-, and 7-year cohorts from 2012 through
2015, which is the data set used for the 2016 performance frameworks. The table includes the
denominators, or student base counts, associated with each rate. The vast majority of students represented
in the district’s graduation rates are associated with Destinations Career Academy (210 students in 2015);
only a small proportion of students come from Julesburg High School (14 students in 2015). Thus, while the
district graduation rates have tended to be slightly higher than those of Destinations Career Academy, they
have been far lower than the rates for Julesburg High School. In nearly all cases, the rates for the online high
school and for the district have been below 30%, which contributes to the “Does Not Meet” ratings on the
PWR indicator.
The dropout rates for Julesburg Re-1 School District and its two high schools tell a similar story.
Table 9 shows the single-year dropout rates for the 2011-12 school year through the 2014-15 school year.
Dropout rates are incorporated into the performance frameworks on a lagged basis, so it is the 2014-15
rates that were used for the 2016 frameworks. As seen in Table 9, the dropout rates for the district are
largely determined by the rates at Destinations Career Academy.
Together, graduation and dropout rates accounted for two-thirds of the ratings assigned to the PWR
indicator on the 2010 through 2014 frameworks. While the weight given to these two metrics has decreased
somewhat with the incorporation of matriculation rates into the 2016 frameworks, they still have a very
strong influence on the overall indicator rating. Moreover, there is a direct correlation between the low
graduation rates and high dropout rates exhibited at Destinations Career Academy and low rates of
matriculation. Indeed, the school earned a “Does Not Meet” rating for its matriculation rate on the 2016
14
framework, as did the district. Of the 119 students represented in the district’s matriculation rate, 106 came
from Destinations Career Academy.
The final data element included under the PWR Indicator is the mean scale score on the Colorado
ACT, which is administered annually to all 11th graders in the state. Here, the performance of students at
Destinations Career Academy has been much more consistent with the performance of students at
Julesburg High School, although still lower. It should be noted, however, that the number of students tested
on the Colorado ACT at Destinations Career Academy is far lower than the number of students enrolled in
11th grade at the school.

Destinations Career Academy of Colorado
To this point, the analysis has presented a summary of district- and school-level performance data
for Julesburg Re-1, and has focused on demonstrating that the performance of Destinations Career Academy
has had a determinant impact on the district’s overall performance. In doing this, the analysis has illustrated
that students at Destinations Career Academy have not performed as well as the students enrolled in the
district’s traditional brick-and-mortar high school.
This section of the analysis presents additional performance data for Destinations Career Academy
for 2012 through 2016. Specifically, this section considers the performance of middle school and high school
level students at the online school separately. This section will also discuss additional data that compares
performance outcomes for Destinations Career Academy with outcomes for other online schools across the
state. These data are included in Appendix C.
Table 11 shows the total performance ratings earned by Destinations Career Academy on the 1-year
performance frameworks from 2012 through 2016. The record labeled as the ‘Overall Rating’ repeats the
information presented in a previous section, as the official ratings for those years were all based on the 1-
year reports. The table includes additional records that show the ratings that were earned separately at the
middle and high school levels. For 2012, there was not enough data to determine a separate middle school
rating. In 2013 and 2014, performance at the middle and high school levels was fairly similar. In 2016,
performance at the high school level was higher than at the middle school level.
It is important to note, however, that the apparent increase at the high school level reflects a
significant shift in the relative weightings given to Achievement versus PWR data. Through 2014, PWR was
weighted more than twice as much as Achievement at the high school level. With the new frameworks
introduced in 2016, Achievement and PWR are weighted equally. For Destinations Career Academy, this
creates a situation where the performance of fewer than 20 students on the Achievement indicator is
weighted just as much as the performance of several hundred students on the PWR indicator. Under the
previous weightings, the high school level would have earned 39.0% of points and would have had a Priority
Improvement rating.

Table 12 shows the Academic Achievement indicator ratings earned by Destinations Career
Academy on the 1-year performance frameworks from 2012 through 2016. Again, the table shows the
overall rating earned by the school along with the separate ratings earned at the middle and high school
16
levels. For 2012, there was not enough data to determine a separate middle school rating on the
Achievement indicator. In 2013 and 2014, performance (percent of points earned) at the middle school level
was higher than performance at the high school level. In 2016, high school students performed better on the
Academic Achievement indicator than middle school students.

Table 13 shows the Academic Growth indicator ratings earned by Destinations Career Academy on
the 1-year performance frameworks from 2012 through 2016. For 2012, there was not enough data to
determine a separate middle school rating on the Growth indicator. In 2013, performance, as measured by
the percent of points earned, at the middle school level was identical to performance at the high school
level. In 2014, high school students performed higher than middle school students on the Academic Growth
indicator. In 2016, there was not enough data to determine a separate high school rating (only 9th graders
were tested in 2016 as compared to 9th and 10th graders in 2012-2014).

Comparison of Destinations Career Academy to Other Colorado Online Schools
Tables included in Appendix C show the performance ratings of other non-Alternative Education
Campus (AEC) online schools in the state that serve students at the middle and high school levels. As of the
2016-17 school year, there were 40 online schools in Colorado that serve middle and high school students.
Six of these schools were newly opened, so only 33 would potentially have had ratings generated by the
2016 frameworks. Of these 33, 11 did not have a sufficient amount of data to determine a rating. Of the 23
online schools that did have enough data for CDE to determine an overall performance rating on the 2016
17
framework, Destinations Career Academy ranked 17th in terms of the total percentage of points earned
across the Academic Achievement, Academic Growth, and Post-Secondary and Workforce indicators. At this
overall level, which combines middle and high school results, eight online schools earned more than 53.0%
of the total possible points, designating them with a Performance plan type. Six others earned between
43.0% and 52.9% of points, designating them with an Improvement Plan type. Another six online schools
earned between 34.0% and 41.9% of points, designating them with a Priority Improvement plan type.
Finally, three online schools earned fewer than 34.0% of total points, putting them in Turnaround status.
The tables included in the appendix show that Destination Career Academy’s performance in 2016 relative
to other online schools was generally consistent with its performance from 2012 through 2014.
Looking specifically at the middle school level, Destinations Career Academy’s performance in 2016
placed it at the very bottom of the rankings for online schools across the state in terms of the total
percentage of points earned across the Achievement and Growth indicators. There were 16 schools with
enough data to determine a separate rating at the middle school level, and Destinations Career Academy
ranked 16th.
Looking specifically at the high school level, Destinations Career Academy’s performance in 2016
placed it near the bottom of online schools with data in terms of the total percentage of points earned
across the Achievement, Growth, and Post-Secondary and Workforce Readiness indicators. There were 16
schools with enough data to determine a separate rating at the high school level, and Destinations Career
Academy ranked 14th.
Achievement Ratings Compared to Other Online Schools
The tables in Appendix C provide additional context for Destinations Career Academy by showing
the school’s performance on individual performance indicators relative to the performance of other online
schools. There were 21 online schools that had enough data for CDE to determine an overall rating on the
Academic Achievement indicator on the 2016 performance framework. Destinations Career Academy
ranked 17th out of 21 in terms of the percentage of points earned on the Achievement indicator. It was
among 12 online schools that earned an Approaching rating on the Achievement indicator.
Looking only at the performance of middle school students, there were 16 online schools that had
enough data for CDE to determine an overall rating on the Academic Achievement indicator on the 2016
performance framework. Destinations Career Academy ranked 14th in terms of the percentage of points
earned on the Achievement indicator. It was among three online schools that earned a “Does Not Meet”
rating on the Achievement indicator at the middle school level.
Looking only at the performance of high school students, there were 18 online schools that had
enough data for CDE to determine an overall rating on the Academic Achievement indicator on the 2016
performance framework. Destinations Career Academy ranked 12th in terms of the percentage of points
earned on the Achievement indicator. It was among eight online schools that earned an “Approaching”
rating on the Achievement indicator at the high school level.
18
Growth Ratings Compared to Other Online Schools
There were 13 online schools that had enough data for CDE to determine an overall rating on the
Academic Growth indicator on the 2016 performance framework. Destinations Career Academy ranked 11th
out of 13 in terms of the percentage of points earned on the Growth indicator. It was among nine online
schools that earned an “Approaching” rating on the Achievement indicator.
Looking only at the performance of middle school students, there were 12 online schools that had
enough data for CDE to determine an overall rating on the Academic Growth indicator. Destinations Career
Academy ranked 9th out of 12 in terms of the percentage of points earned on the Growth indicator. It was
among three online schools that earned an “Approaching” rating on the Growth indicator at the middle
school level.
Destinations Career Academy high school level did not have enough data for CDE to determine an
overall rating on the Academic Growth indicator on the 2016 performance framework. On the 2014
framework, the school earned 50% of points on the Growth indicator, which ranked 9th out of 11 schools
with sufficient data for that year. In 2014, it was one of two schools that earned an “Approaching” rating on
the Growth indicator at the high school level.
PWR Ratings Compared to Other Online Schools
There were 27 online schools that had enough data for CDE to determine an overall rating on the
Post-Secondary and Workforce Readiness indicator on the 2016 performance framework. Destinations
Career Academy ranked 21st in terms of the percentage of points earned on the Post-Secondary and
Workforce Readiness indicator. It was among 14 (out of 27) online schools that earned a “Does Not Meet”
rating on the Post-Secondary and Workforce Readiness indicator.
This section is designed to provide a summary of a qualitative review of district and school systems
and conditions. Research on school turnaround shows that certain conditions are essential in establishing a
strong foundation for rapid school improvement.3 Schools on track to improve student achievement are
likely to show strong evidence of highly-functioning leadership, culture, academic systems, district support
structures and board and community relationships.
Based on site visits to the Julesburg School District over several years, the CDE Field Manager found
the education of children in the brick and mortar schools to be of good quality. Julesburg Elementary School
and Julesburg High School have a strong school culture, solid instructional practices, and a community that is

supportive of its schools. As discussed above, the district’s priority improvement rating is linked to the rating
of the online school, Destinations Career Academy of Colorado. Thus, the following evaluation of systems
and conditions relates to the operation of the online school.
Leadership & Staff
Superintendent Shawn Ehnes has been leading Julesburg School District for over 15 years.
Teri Cady has worked with Destinations Career Academy since August 2013 and became the Head of
School in January 2016.
As the management entity, K12 Inc. is an involved partner with Julesburg staff. According to the
State Review Panel, K12 provides leadership around improvement strategies and is in regular
contact with school and district leaders and board of education members.
Also according to the State Review Panel, “the relationship of the district, K12 leadership, and the
[school] leadership team was not well defined” when the Panel visited in 2015.
Destinations Career Academy teachers live and work from various locations across Colorado.
School Culture
While Destinations Career Academy students live in different locations across the states, the school
offers face-to-face events in different locations, including field trips, school clubs, college visits and
other extra-curricular activities.
Student mobility has been a significant issue for the school with 50 to 70 percent of students being
new to the school each year, according to CDE data.
The online school focuses on a culture of career readiness and has recently implemented eight
career pathways in business management and administration, health sciences and information
technology (IT). Counselors work with students to select a career pathway that drives their academic
and career goals.
Additionally, the school is developing chapters of career-based student organizations to strength the
culture of the school and increase student engagement. Examples of such associations are DECA,
which is a national association for high school students interested in market, finance, hospitality and
business, and HOSA, an organization for students interested in health professions.
Academic Systems
K12, Inc. provides Destinations Career Academy with the online learning platform, the curriculum,
support on student data, and other professional development.
The school is aligning its programming with the newly-established career and technical education
(CTE) pathways and courses in business, health and IT. The school intends to create additional CTE
pathways in the coming years.
The online program includes both synchronous (all students are online at the same time) and
asynchronous (students log on at different times) course options. All students are required to
participate in at least some synchronous courses where instruction is “live” and students can
interact with one another and with the instructor through chat boxes and audio.
20
Students are assessed with course-specific assessments as well as formative benchmark
assessments.
The district also uses STAR 360 as an interim assessment tool.
Destinations Career Academy requires that each student have a “learning coach” at or near their
home to support their learning and hold them accountable to completing their work. Middle school
students tend to need more adult supervision and facilitation than high school students, and,
therefore, this model is more critical to their success.
District Support and Flexibility
The district has allocated attention and support to its online school and has remained involved in
the operation of the school in partnership with the school’s management organization, K12.
The district offers Destinations Career Academy online courses to its Julesburg High School students
as an option for acceleration and to provide additional elective courses. This arrangement benefits
the high school students who can take one or two supplemental, online courses, and it also provides
a linkage between the district’s two schools.
Board and Community Relations
The State Review Panel interviewed the Julesburg Board of Education and found the board members
have “high pride in the district and a clear commitment to a quality education for students.”
According to the Superintendent, the local school board of education and the community have been
supportive of the online school since its inception.
Having the online school authorized by Julesburg School District brings additional revenue into the
rural community to support an extended school day, summer school at the elementary level, arts
and music programming, among other initiatives.4
The board of education regularly receives updates (at least monthly) from district and school
leadership on local data concerning student progress and on the efforts to improve outcomes.
The board has been involved in considering options for Destinations Career Academy as the school
as progressed on the accountability clock.
Julesburg Re-1 School District submitted their UIP in January 2017 on time. Because Julesburg is a district with enrollment less than 1000 students, they submitted a “combined” plan, meaning both district- and all school-level requirements are included within one plan. CDE staff members reviewed the plan and found it to be in good order with minimal required changes. A summary of CDE feedback over time can be found in Appendix B.

Current School UIP Summary
The following items were pulled directly from the school’s Unified Improvement Plan submitted to CDE in January 2017. The district refers to Destinations Career Academy of Colorado as “CODCA.”
Where are students continuing to struggle most?
Priority Performance Challenges: Specific statements about the district’s performance challenges (not budgeting, staffing curriculum, instruction, etc.), with at least one priority identified for each performance indicator(Achievement , Growth, Growth Gaps, PWR) where the district did not meet federal, state and/or local expectations.
1. CODCA: Middle and High School PARCC ELA scores are below State expectations and is a focus
of improvement at CODCA.
2. CODCA: Middle and High School PARCC Math scores are below State expectations and is a
focus of improvement at CODCA.
3. CODCA: Middle School CMAS Science scores are below State expectations and is a focus of
improvement at CODCA.
4. CODCA: While improving, graduation rates and dropout rates are below expectation and a
focus area at the school.
5. Julesburg ES: Student growth in Writing.
6. Julesburg ES: Student growth in Math, with special emphasis on Minority students.
7. Julesburg ES: Students with Disabilities (Growth) in Reading, Writing and Math.
8. Julesburg MS/HS: Student growth in Language Usage/Writing.
9. Julesburg MS/HS: Math Achievement at all grade levels.
Why is the school continuing to have this problem(s)?
Root Causes: Statements describing the deepest underlying cause, or causes, of performance challenges, that, if dissolved, would result in elimination, or substantial reduction of the performance challenge(s).
1. CODCA needs to continue to improve upon an effective MTSS model across all subject areas at
both the MS and HS levels, ensuring thorough data analysis, effective differentiated
instruction, and progress monitoring of student interventions.
2. CODCA needs to continue its purposeful writing and math intervention models to include the
following criteria: student identification through fall assessments in STAR360 and curricular
assessments, specific small group intervention classrooms targeting fundamental skills and
academic needs, school accountability measures for student attendance, and quality teacher
instruction at all intervention sessions.
3. CODCA needs to continue its intentional cycle of student data analysis, reflection, and
adaptation of action steps resulting from analysis of student data.
4. CODCA needs to fully develop its CTE program, the Career Academy, to offer students a
unique, individualized and meaningful school environment. This program will allow students to
take career based courses, gain experience in a career field, and participate in career based
student organizations.
22
5. Julesburg ES: A need for greater emphasis on grammar (capitalization, punctuation,
organization, and spelling and its application) with application to written work.
6. Julesburg ES: A need for students to include multiple details to support ideas in both the short-
constructed responses items and the extended response items on the state assessment.
7. Julesburg ES: Grouping of students to meet individual needs with grade-level material (within
our existing daily schedule) so students will receive targeted instruction based on individual
needs
8. Julesburg ES: Students on IEPs are not showing the growth and achievement expected and this
is possibility related to the complexity of the curriculum used and not enough practice time on
skills needed.
9. Julesburg ES: Students needing to catch up requiring additional time for reteach and skills
practice.
10. Julesburg MS/HS: A need to identify struggling students at the beginning of the school year and
begin in class and out of class targeted interventions.
11. Julesburg MS/HS: A need to enhance the MTSS Process, utilization of intervention resources
and acquisition of additional intervention resources.
12. Julesburg MS/HS: A need to enhance vertical articulation of curriculum/academic content
standards/assessment between elementary and jr. high school, especially in math.
13. Julesburg MS/HS: A need to enhance utilization of Aims Web progress monitoring and NWEA
Assessments to determine if interventions are improving student academic performance.
What action is the school taking?
Major Improvement Strategies: An overall approach that describes a series of related actions intended to result in improvements in performance.
1. CODCA will fully develop its CTE program, the Destinations Career Academy, providing 8 career
course pathways for students (and more in future years), student career based organizations,
and work experience opportunities to all high school students.
2. CODCA administration and staff will continue to implement engaging and data-driven
instruction across all subject areas at both middle and high schools.
3. CODCA administration and staff will continue to implement a continuous cycle of progress
monitoring of school data, resulting in modifying improvement action steps as necessary.
4. Julesburg ES will continue Implementation of the Walk-To-Read Literacy Block.
5. Julesburg ES will adopt a research Validated/Needs Based Tier Three English Language Arts
Curriculum for Identified Tier 3 Students.
6. Julesburg ES will continue alignment of our School-Wide Writing Program.
7. Julesburg ES will continue a targeted academic skills After-School Intervention (4th-6th Grades)
(Aspire)
8. Julesburg MS/HS will strengthen implementation of aligned curriculum, instruction and
assessment with Colorado Academic Standards with focus on vertical articulation of curriculum
23
and assessments between 6th and 7th grade in core subject areas (math, science, language
arts).
9. Julesburg MS/HS will develop process/system/practices/activities that actively engage teachers
in the consistent analysis and utilization of Student Learning Outcome (SLO) assessment data
(Classroom Assessments, NWEA, and Aims Web) to drive their decisions about what
content/curriculum to teach or not teach and inform their decisions about the need for the
implementation of differentiated/targeted intervention instructional strategies to meet the
needs of their struggling and advanced learners.
History of Supports Available from the State on UIP Development
The school has had access to universal and targeted supports from CDE on its UIP development.
Universal supports include regional trainings held each spring and fall and access to many resources (e.g.,
quality criteria, UIP Handbook, online tutorials, sample plans) on CDE’s website. CDE has also worked
directly with the district and the online school on their plan development.
The Department’s records indicate that Julesburg has not applied for a competitive funding
opportunity over the past five years, with the exception of a small Race to the Top Early Childhood
Readiness grant. Through that grant, the district was awarded approximately $650.00 over three school
years from 2013-14 to 2015-16. The grant supported the development and expansion of early childhood
(pre-K) education programs.
Department staff reviewed the State Review Panel’s final recommendation report, which was based
on their 2015 document review and one and a half-day site visit. The Panel conducted an evaluation for both
the district and for Destinations Career Academy of Colorado (formerly Insight School of Colorado). This
summary provides a synthesis of both of these reports and the Department’s response to some of the
findings.
The State Review Panel recommendation for both Julesburg Re-1 School District and Destinations
Career Academy of Colorado (formerly Insight School of Colorado) was in favor of the continuation of the
management partnership with K-12, Inc. for Destinations Career Academy. The Panel’s reasoning was that
K12 only took over the management of the school two years prior to the State Review Panel evaluation and
needed more time to implement key structure and systems to increase student outcomes. The school had a
tumultuous leadership period prior to K12, Inc. taking over; the Panel felt that additional time was
warranted for the school to demonstrate achievement gains. Specifically, the Panel recommended that
school be given two more years (until 2017) to:
24
“provide evidence they have clearly defined the purpose of the school and to identify students they
can serve within the system of programming and services offered versus those they cannot serve to
ensure students achieve their goals. The school also needs to be able to provide evidence of positive
benefit by collecting and reporting measures of school effectiveness including reenrollment rates,
student and parent engagement and satisfaction, and cohort achievement and graduation rates. If
[Destinations Career Academy] is unable to demonstrate positive changes in these performance
indicators, the SRP recommends the school’s closure.”
The State Review Panel evaluation was conducted in spring 2015, and thus it has been nearly two
years since that recommendation was written. CDE finds that there have been incremental improvements
reported for the high school. While the graduation rate is still extremely low, it doubled in two years from
15.2% in 2014 to 36.2% in 2016. The high school also earned enough points on the state performance
framework to be rated as Improvement in 2016, up from Priority Improvement the year before (according to
CDE’s calculations). Further, the school has refined its mission to focus on career and technical education
pathways. For these reasons, the Department concludes that as the Panel noted, the school has identified
that they can continue serving and offering value to high school students, whereas the school is not well
positioned to continue serving middle school students.
The Panel found the school to be “Developing” in the areas of adequate leadership to implement
change and demonstrating an infrastructure to support improvement efforts (see Table 14 below); however,
the capacity of the personnel to plan effectively for appropriate action and to engage productively with
external partners was rated as “Not Effective.” The likelihood of positive returns on state investments of
assistance and support to improve the performance within the current management structure and staffing
was also rated as “Not Effective.” The district, on the other hand, was rated as “Developing” on four of the
five criteria and as effective on the fifth criteria concerning returns on state investments of support (see
Table 15).
In regards to the sixth criteria that assesses the need for a district to remain in operation, the Panel
found that there is a need for the district to remain open as it serves a small population in an isolated rural
community, and the district’s brick and mortar schools are rated as Performance. In regards to the online
school, however, the Panel stated that there is not a necessity for Destinations Career Academy to remain in
operation to serve students. The Panel wrote: “While the school staff indicated there are students for whom
this school is necessary because of their remote location or need for flexible school schedules, there was no
data provided or other documentation to suggest a clear picture of students who enroll and reasons for
choosing [Destinations Career Academy]. As a result, it is not possible to determine that this is the best
option for these students.” The State Review Panel also cited the high level of student turnover each year in
its rationale for the rating.
The Panel did not recommend Innovation status for the district or the school because there is no
evidence that the online school needs additional flexibility. The Panel noted, “By its very nature, as an online
school, [Destinations Career Academy] already enjoys significant autonomy and flexibility in terms of hours
of attendance, length of school year and personnel. As a result, it is not clear that [Destinations Career
Academy] would benefit from Innovation Status.”
25
For the same reasons, the Panel did not recommend charter status for the Julesburg School District
or Destinations Career Academy. The Panel stated, “The school is already an online choice option for
Julesburg students and for students and their families living across Colorado. Therefore, it is not clear how
conversion to a charter would benefit the school or district at this time.”
The Panel did not recommend school closure at this time because they found evidence to suggest
that with stability in the management organization and school leadership, and with a refined school mission,
the school could start showing signs of student success. Instead, as discussed above, the Panel recommends
allowing K12, Inc. to operate the school for “an additional period of two years to manifest their
improvement potential.”
Lastly, the Panel did not recommend district reorganization for the Julesburg School District
because it was found to be “Developing” or “Effective” on the Panel’s rubric. Moreover, the closest
neighboring district is over 30 miles away and the brick and mortar schools within Julesburg are rated the
same as those within neighboring districts—at Performance.

The Department has reviewed a draft of the school closure plan and finds that it follows the
statutory guidance concerning school closure (see below for a copy of the guidance). There is a clear
rationale, and a thoughtful communication plan and transition plan. The district is planning to notify the
middle school families currently enrolled in the online school (grades 6 and 7) through written
communication and individual meetings in late March through April/May as needed.
The district described in their closure plan that they will follow up with the affected families in the
summer to ensure all students have been enrolled in a new school. The plan demonstrates intent on the
part of the district to work with current 6th and 7th grade families to ensure that they become enrolled in a
new school that best fits their needs (the 8th graders will have the option of staying in the school for 9th
grade). The plans states:
“For our students in 6th and 7th grades we will discuss schooling options with the family to include the following:
If the student would like to remain in an online school model, we will work with the family
to understand other online school options and assist family with enrollment into school of
their choice.
If the student would like to return to a local district school, we will work with the family to
be sure enrollment is seamless into that school.
If the student would like to attend a charter or another school of choice option, we will
explore varying options together and also assist in enrollment as we are able.
For any student utilizing CODCA’s Special Services, such as an IEP, ALP, and/or 504, we will
ensure all documentation follows the student to the new school and will assist in the
transition of the student into the new environment.
CODCA leadership will stay in touch through email/phone with all of these families as the
year progresses, ensuring they are aware of options to return to CODCA once in the high
school grades.”
Statutory School Closure Plan Requirements C.R.S. 22-11-307 (5) (a) If a local school board or the institute decides or is directed by the state board to close a public school because of low performance, the school district and the institute must develop and update as necessary a school closure plan that implements evidence-based best practices during the school closure process to ensure that students who are enrolled in the public school that is closed are fully supported in enrolling in the successor public school, if any, or in another public school. The local school board or the institute shall make the school closure plan and any updates available in writing to the staff of the public school, the local teachers association, if any, the parents of students enrolled in the public school, and the community surrounding the public school. At a minimum, the school closure plan must include:
(I) A plan for communicating in writing with parents, school staff, the local teachers association, if any, and the community surrounding the public school as early as possible after the local school
27
board or the institute decides to close the public school and at regular intervals throughout the closure process; (II) The procedures or mechanisms by which the local school board and the institute will solicit and consider input on the school closure process from the staff of the public school, the local teachers association, if any, the parents of the students enrolled in the public school, and the community surrounding the public school; (III) A timeline for closing the public school that includes or is updated to include all major steps and decision points in completing the school closure and starts no later than the decision to close and continues at least through the reassignment of students and the opening of a new public school, if applicable; and (IV) A plan for reassigning students to other public schools, which must, to the fullest extent practicable, take into account parents' choice concerning the public schools to which students are reassigned.
28
State law requires that the Colorado State Board of Education and the Colorado Department of
Education hold all districts and schools accountable for student performance (C.R.S. 22-11-101 et al.).
The state annually evaluates student performance in districts and schools through a set of consistent,
objective measures, and then uses this information to inform rewards, sanctions, and supports. Districts
and schools assigned to a Priority Improvement or Turnaround plan have the lowest performing student
outcomes of all districts and schools in Colorado, according to the state’s primary accountability tool—
the District and School Performance Framework (DPF/SPF) reports. The DPF and SPF reports are based
on key Performance Indicators that the state has determined to be most indicative of how prepared
students are for college and career: achievement, growth, and postsecondary and workforce readiness,
which each indicator including the disaggregated results for different student groups. Districts and
schools on Priority Improvement or Turnaround plans tend to be falling short of state expectations for
students in each of these areas. Guidance on the 2016 School and District Performance Frameworks can
be accessed at: http://www.cde.state.co.us/accountability/performanceframeworksresources.
Pursuant to the Education Act of 2009, Article 11 of Title 22, C.R.S., a district or the Charter
School Institute (Institute) may not remain Accredited with Priority Improvement Plan or Accredited
with Turnaround Plan for longer than five consecutive years before the State Board removes the
district’s/Institute’s accreditation. In State Board of Education rules, 1 CCR 301-1, section 5.07, the
calculation of the five consecutive years begins July 1 of the summer immediately following the fall in
which the district/Institute is notified that it is Accredited with Priority Improvement Plan or Accredited
with Turnaround Plan.
The Education Act of 2009, Article 11 of Title 22, C.R.S., outlines similar consequences for
schools. Schools may not implement a Priority Improvement or Turnaround Plan for longer than five
consecutive years before the district or Institute is required to restructure or close the school. According
to State Board of Education rules, 1 CCR 301-1, section 10.05, the calculation of the five consecutive
years begins July 1 of the summer immediately following the fall in which the school is notified that it
must implement a Priority Improvement or Turnaround Plan.
These statutory timelines are referred to as the “Accountability Clock.” The processes associated
with each typical year of the clock, from the notification/planning Year 0 to the final Year 6, including
actions directed by the State Board of Education at the end of the Accountability Clock, are detailed in
the timeline below.
Following the passage of HB15-1323, accreditation ratings and school plan types were not
assigned in Fall 2015. As a result, the 2015-16 school year was removed from the calculation of five
consecutive school years for both school districts and individual schools. This one year pause means that
the 2016-17 school year resumes where the 2014-15 school year left off in terms of the accountability
clock.
The Accountability Clock is in effect for a district or school as long as it is assigned a Priority
Improvement or Turnaround Plan. The Accountability Clock stops for a district or school once the State
Board adopts an SPF/DPF with a rating of Improvement or higher. At that point, the district or school
would be considered to have exited Priority Improvement or Turnaround status. If a district or school is
on Turnaround and moves to Priority Improvement the Accountability Clock continues and is not reset.
29
If a school or district receives a plan type of Priority Improvement or Turnaround for more than
five consecutive years, then the State Board of Education must direct an action to the local board of
education. The State Board has discretion to take action prior to the end of the Accountability Clock for
schools and districts with Turnaround plans.
Schools and districts on the Accountability Clock for any period of time should be implementing
research-based strategies of appropriate scope and intensity to improve student outcomes. After five
consecutive years, the local board will be directed by the State Board of Education as to which strategy,
or pathway, to pursue. This may include school closure, converting schools to a charter school, working
with an external management partner, seeking innovation status for a school or group of schools, or
district reorganization. In considering appropriate actions, the State Board will refer to
recommendations from the State Review Panel and from the Commissioner of Education. School
districts may also provide a proposal for their preferred pathway to the State Board.
For more information on the accountability clock, please visit: http://www.cde.state.co.us/accountability/accountability_clock.
Since 2010, the district has been Accredited with a Priority Improvement plan, with CDE conducting
annual reviews of the UIP. Following the review of the UIP, CDE provides feedback to the district and
requires, in some cases, that changes be made to the plan before it is publicly posted or within the next
year. Over time, the feedback from CDE to the district regarding its UIP has shifted emphasis from
strengthening specific elements within the plan (e.g. root cause and trend analysis) to ensuring that all
systems (the online school and brick and mortar schools) are addressed within the plan. While the plan
meets many of the quality criteria, there has been more concern about the plan’s emphasis on the
online school. CDE has continually requested that the plan be revised to include more information about
the district as a whole, rather than solely focusing on the online school. In 2015-16 the UIP included this
requested information.
School Year
Required Changes
Summary of Required Changes
2016-17 Yes, minimal
The plan responds to CDE’s request to migrate to the UIP Online System, thus strengthening alignment throughout the plan. This is especially important to the district since they write a combined plan (both brick and mortar schools and the online school are included within the same plan). Due to the district’s challenges with participation on the State Assessment, CDE recommends that the district continue to implement strong local assessments and corresponding data collection processes. Other recommendations include strengthening root causes and root cause verification (supported with local data), as well as incorporating outcome-based implementation benchmarks to ensure effective progress monitoring.
2015-16 Yes, minimal
The plan responds to CDE’s feedback requesting inclusion of state-mandated requirements pertaining to the district and all district schools (not just the online school). CDE recognizes the unique challenges faced in writing a
30
combined plan and recognizes Julesburg for their structurally effective approach and well-written plan. The plan includes all necessary elements and discusses required elements by entity – the district, all brick and mortar schools and the online school – with the exception of the ESEA addendum that needs a few fixes.
2014-15 Yes, with great concern
For the past several years, Julesburg has submitted a plan written by and pertaining to the virtual school, Insight School of Colorado. The district has received the same feedback – that because the district is on the accountability clock, the district must submit a plan that includes all state-mandated requirements, pertaining to the district and ALL district schools, not just the online school. The plan submitted for the 2014-15 school year includes a brief data analysis discussing both the virtual school and brick and mortar schools, but the remainder of the plan speaks to the virtual school only. In the past, CDE has shared combined feedback for the district and the virtual school. However, for the Winter 2015 Review Session, Julesburg will receive two sets of feedback: (1) district-level feedback and (2) school-level feedback for Insight School of Colorado. Because the plan is essentially silent on district-level information, it was difficult to provide feedback at the district level. Given that the district is entering Year 5 on the accountability clock, the district must submit a plan that includes all required elements that pertains to the district and all district schools. Many program specific requirements are missing as well. Details are included in each section below. Assistance is available to the district in making the required revisions.
2013-14 Yes, with some changes
The district has met much of the quality criteria throughout the entire plan. Because the plan is district‐level, however, the data narrative must include the analysis of the entire district, including both the brick and mortar and the online schools. It is appropriate to keep the focus on the online school, but the data must still be explored districtwide and then a justification provided that prioritizes the online school (most likely in the discussion for the priority performance challenges). The data narrative should also compare the performance data from the schools with state level expectations, so that the most notable trends are made more explicit. The major improvement strategies are research‐based and are connected to the identified priority performance challenges and root causes, and the implementation benchmarks are clearly articulated in order to determine if student performance is on track to meeting the annual performance targets.
2012-13 Yes, with some changes
Overall, the plan meets most of the quality criteria. The plan would be strengthened by identifying trends using more data over a longer period of time. Priority performance challenges lack focus to guide the school’s improvement efforts. Consider more detailed data analysis so that student academic needs can be more fully identified. The major improvement strategies reflect an overall theory of action, but it is unclear how the school selected some strategies over others. The strategies are so broad that it is difficult to determine how they will affect the specific changes in practice.
31
2011-12 Yes, with some changes
Overall, the plan met most of the quality criteria. Consider reframing the root cause for student engagement to explain what the adults in the district need to do to better engage students in the learning process. Consider the role the district plays in interacting with parents regarding their role in the online education process. (Definition of “root cause” includes conditions that are within the control of the district.) Insight (the online school) is mentioned in the plan, however the district’s relationship with Insight regarding the plan development process and role in ownership of performance is unclear. The efforts described in the major improvement strategies could be enhanced to respond to the specific needs of online environments. Consider referring to http://www.inacol.org/research/nationalstandards/iNA COL_CourseStandards_2011.pdf as a resource. Some action steps provided are broad, spanning the majority of the year, or they are actions that are taken annually. While this is important, the plan could also provide more detail on the specific steps that will be taken in an initial year of laying the groundwork for recurring annual actions.

Growth metrics provide another view of the performance of a school, district or group of students. While achievement is focused on the performance at a point in time, growth provides an indication ofwhat happens in-between the assessments. Looking at both achievement and growth results provides a more in-depth picture of performance.
Growth rates for individual students are calculated by analyzing students’ Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) scores in English Language Arts and Math over consecutive years. Astudent's growth percentile (ranging from 1 to 99) indicates how a student’s performance changed over time, relative to students with a similar score history on the state assessments. School and districtgrowth rates are determined by the growth percentiles from individual students, specifically the median (or score in the middle) student growth percentile. Median Growth Percentiles (MGP) arecalculated for the whole school, by grade, and by different student groups. Higher median growth percentiles indicate higher growth rates for the typical students in those groups. Please note that growthrates are independent of achievement levels (students at all achievement levels are just as likely to have high growth as low growth). As a point of reference, the state median growth percentile for anygrade, overall, is 50. In rare cases, state median growth percentiles may vary slightly.
Missing data in the table reflect fewer than 20 students in the group; their data is not shown in the table (the cells are blank) to ensure data privacy and appropriate interpretation of results. Foradditional definitions and information go to: www.cde.state.co.us/accountability/coloradogrowthmodel

Dropout RatesThe percentage of students enrolled in grades 7-12 who leave school during a single year. It iscalculated by dividing the number of dropouts by a membership base, which includes all studentswho were in the membership any time during the year and did not enroll in a different Colorado
school.
Graduation and Completion RatesColorado calculates ‘on-time’ graduation as the percent of students who graduate from high school four years after entering ninth grade. The rates presented in this report reflect the best of the 4-, 5-,6-, and 7-year graduation rates at the overall and disaggregated levels, based on end of year state submission reporting. The four-year rate for this report is based on 2015 graduates. For graduation,ELL students include only NEP and LEP. Please visit the department's website at http://www.cde.state.co.us/cdereval/gradcurrentdefinitions#sthash.asD4R2qV.dpuf for additional information.

Growth metrics provide another view of the performance of a school, district or group of students. While achievement is focused on the performance at a point in time, growth provides an indication ofwhat happens in-between the assessments. Looking at both achievement and growth results provides a more in-depth picture of performance.
Growth rates for individual students are calculated by analyzing students’ Colorado Measures of Academic Success (CMAS) scores in English Language Arts and Math over consecutive years. Astudent's growth percentile (ranging from 1 to 99) indicates how a student’s performance changed over time, relative to students with a similar score history on the state assessments. School and districtgrowth rates are determined by the growth percentiles from individual students, specifically the median (or score in the middle) student growth percentile. Median Growth Percentiles (MGP) arecalculated for the whole school, by grade, and by different student groups. Higher median growth percentiles indicate higher growth rates for the typical students in those groups. Please note that growthrates are independent of achievement levels (students at all achievement levels are just as likely to have high growth as low growth). As a point of reference, the state median growth percentile for anygrade, overall, is 50. In rare cases, state median growth percentiles may vary slightly.
Missing data in the table reflect fewer than 20 students in the group; their data is not shown in the table (the cells are blank) to ensure data privacy and appropriate interpretation of results. Foradditional definitions and information go to: www.cde.state.co.us/accountability/coloradogrowthmodel
