ARIZONA – IDENTIFYING SCHOOLS

Score:

 

Arizona does not describe how final letter grades would be awarded.

 

Arizona’s plan gives a list of indicators, and it specifies how those indicators would be weighted on a 100-point scale, but the plan does not appear to describe how final letter grades would be awarded. Arizona says it will meet the minimal federal requirements and identify the lowest 5 percent of all schools in need of comprehensive support and identify for targeted support any school with a subgroup that, on its own, would qualify for the bottom 5 percent overall. Still, Arizona’s plan does not provide any specifics on how many schools might fall into that category.

Louisiana’s A-F school rating system provides stakeholders with a single, clear, summative rating to understand school performance and demonstrates how it will identify close to 17 percent of its schools for comprehensive support and improvement, well above the 5 percent required under federal law.
