Background:
|
This presentation will provide an overview of the student-achievement results on the district's universal screener and other assessments. STAR Results in reading, math, and early literacy, both in English and Spanish, will be provided. Results from the Phonological Awareness Literacy Screening (PALS) given to K4 to grade-2 students will be reviewed. Additionally, ACCESS results will be reviewed.
Federal and state laws require that students identified as English Learners (ELs) be assessed annually to determine their levels of English-language proficiency (ELP) and to ensure that they are progressing in achieving full English proficiency. The results presented demonstrate the performance of Milwaukee Public School ELs that were tested this school year from December to February. This presentation will also review the changes that occurred to raise the bar for language proficiency. Changes in ACCESS performance levels this year resulted from standards being set to better align scores to levels of English-language proficiency needed to meet language demands of college- and career-readiness standards.
