(c) Phase one
shall measure the core indicators specified under subsection (b) of this
section by the statewide student assessment implemented under W.S. 21‑2‑304(a)(v)
for school year 2011‑2012, inclusive of all students enrolled in a school
on or before October 1, 2011. Each score
shall be aggregated to the school level based upon those grades served by each
school as reported by the respective school district to the department. The department shall separate reported
schools into elementary, middle and high school levels, and shall adjust as
necessary for different grade configurations.
(d) Based upon
school year 2008‑2009 statewide assessment scores for students performing
at proficient and advanced proficient, as computed in accordance with paragraph
(e)(i) of this section, the department shall establish the following cut scores
for core indicator performance levels:
(i) "Distinguished
level of performance" equivalent to the lowest performing school within
the highest twenty percent (20%) of schools within the state performing at
proficient and advanced proficient on reading and math;
(ii) "Sufficient
level of performance" equivalent to those schools not meeting the top
twenty percent (20%) performing at proficient or advanced proficient levels,
but above the lowest twenty percent (20%) performing at proficient and advanced
proficient levels on reading and math;
(iii) "Focus
level of performance" equivalent to the highest performing school of those
schools within the bottom twenty percent (20%) performing at proficient and
advanced proficient levels on reading and math.
(e) Using the
categories established under subsection (d) of this section, the department
shall rank each school within the state using statewide assessment results in
reading and mathematics for school year 2010‑2011, updated each school year
thereafter and in accordance with the following:
(i) Individual
school scores shall be computed by dividing the sum of the total number of
students within the school performing at proficient and advanced proficient in
reading and the number performing at proficient and advanced proficient in
mathematics, by the total number of students assessed for reading plus the
total number assessed for mathematics within the school for the 2010‑2011
school year, and each school year thereafter.".
