While most tests simply provide scores that compare and rank students and schools. Achievement Level Tests provide the information most important to educators scores that measure growth in student achievement. Level tests provide thorough and reliable data that can be used with confidence to make instructional and program improvement decisions. about the testing experience. Another benefit of focusing the tests around specific achievement levels is that each test is shorter in length, resulting in less class time used for testing. But most importantly, teachers receive accurate information that enables them to monitor each students academic growth. When to Administer Achievement Level Tests Most districts administer Achievement Level Tests in both the fall and spring. Tests may be administered starting in the spring of second Measure growth in student achievement over time Place students into appropriate courses or instructional settings Provide instructional focus Screen students for Title I eligibility, special education services and gifted programs Evaluate program effectiveness More Accurate Data About Individual Students Teachers want to improve student learning, but to do this, they need more accurate information than the traditional, single-form test can provide. With conventional tests, low-performing students see only a few questions that they can get right, and high-performing students see only a few that they will miss.

The reading and language usage tests are appropriate for most students through grade 10
the mathematics tests through algebra and geometry. Science tests can be given to students in third grade through high school science courses. Term F96 S96 F97 S97 F98 S98 F99 Academic growth for individual students can be tracked through the NWEA longitudinal report. Shown here is a student's progress in mathematics from grade 6 through grade 9. The Test Administration Process Achievement Level Tests are not timed and take about one Communicate to parents and the community not only causes boredom and frustration in students, it also makes achievement scores less accurate. With Achievement Level Tests, students take tests that are tailored to their current achievement level. This gives students a fair opportunity to show what they know and can do. There are no wasted test items on level tests. Students can actually attempt all items in a given test, which makes them feel better hour per subject for most students. An easy-to- follow administration booklet and instructional video smoothly guide the test administration process. For all districts new to the concept, NWEA provides an on-site introductory workshop that guides teachers through proper test administration procedures. The administration of NWEAs Achievement Level Tests differs from other tests since students must be assigned a test of appropriate difficulty. In the first year of the program, brief locator tests help place students into the right test level. In subsequent years, NWEA's scoring program uses prior test results to automatically assign students to the right level. Test Results Returned Quickly, Measure Progress Level test results are returned within two weeks. Districts with appropriate technical expertise may license the NWEA scoring software for immediate on-site scoring. Level test results are reported on an achievement scale called the NWEA RIT scale. This scale RIT Score -!

The chart here shows the progress of students towards one state's reading standard of 231. 3 4 enables teachers to measure student progress much like a yardstick measures height. Growth in student achievement can be accurately tracked between terms and across years. In addition to the RIT score, NWEA provides percentile scores for districts to use to compare their students to others in the nation. NWEAs norms include more than 500,000 students, the largest K-12 norm base in the country. More importantly, NWEA provides the only systematically-collected set of growth norms available, enabling districts to accurately compare the growth of students with others in their grade. Goal scores provide specific measures related to the districts curriculum. These scores make it possible to compare student performance in each goal area to typical performance for students in that grade. Reports Summarize Test Results, Used to Improve Learning NWEA provides class, grade, school, district, and parent reports. Teachers use the information to focus classroom instruction and help pinpoint areas where individual students might need extra attention. District and school leadership teams use the data to make informed decisions and answer the difficult question, Are we a more effective school system today than we were yesterday? "This scale enables teachers to n n n n n n 5 6 7 8 Predicting Student Performance on State Tests Schools should never be surprised by student performance on high-stakes tests. NWEA staff works with school districts to create an alignment between the level test scales and the state test scales. Districts commonly use data from Achievement Level Tests to predict student performance on state tests, which measure student progress much like a yardstick measures height." helps districts identify students eligible for special intervention programs and shows how all students are progressing toward the standards. NWEA Support to Districts NWEA provides extensive support to districts that use Achievement Level Tests, from early design decisions through the implementation process, and appropriate and effective use of the data. NWEA: Assessment Expertise The Northwest Evaluation Association is a non-profit organization working in partnership with many of our nations school districts. Our mission, Partnering to help all kids learn, is rooted in the belief that accurate information about student achievement leads to improved student learning. NWEA provides professional training, consulting services, and ongoing research. We build long-term relationships with clients, helping them design and maintain comprehensive assessment programs that are making a difference in student learning.

020 J LR5D ACT AND SAT SCORES RELEASED Better ACT and SAT scores were aligned with those Little Rock School District students who had taken advanced placement and honors t jurses in addition to their regularly required core courses. Students who took honors classes scored much better on the SAT on the average than the mean scores for all students. Of the 315 students who took the SAT, 212 C677.3 had taken honors English and 152 t.4SZ.') had taken honors mathematics c our ses. "These test summaries support the belief that student will do better on tests if they take advanced placement and s honors level courses," said Mac Bernd, super intendent. Although LRSD offers more advanced placement course than other districts, as part of our emphasis on academic achievement were working towards offering even more advanced placement courses, If Bernd added. II In terms of the disparity among blacks and whites. we can see that getting students into advanced placement c1 asses could really help their achievement levels, If Bernd said. (MORE) 810 West Markham Street Little Rock, Arkansas 72201 ^(Sonag^MoooLRSD ACT and SAT Page 2 scores "We must work to prepare al 1 our students to quali fy for, enrol 1 in and complete the more advanced and challenging advanced placement c ourses," said Bernd. Recently released SAT and ACT scores for the 19'31-92 school year show a variety of statistical information that compares LRSD students to other Arkansas district scores and to the National averages. Both tests are administered several times throughout the school year and are summarized at the end of the testing period. The tests measure verbal and mathematical reasoning skills, developed over many years of education. that are related to academic performance in college. The ACT exam was administered to 1,101 LRSD students, while 315 students took the SAT exam. The ACT test summary shows an increase in overall composite scores from 1990-91 to 1991-92 for LRSD students. English. mathematics and science reasoning all had increased sc or es. The reading score did not change over the two-year period. Parkview Magnet School students c jmposite scores wer ea better than Arkansas and National composite scores. Students from Fair, Hal 1, McClellan and Parkview Magnet had higher composite scores in 1991-92 than in the 1990-91 school year. CMOREjLRSD ACT and SAT Scores Page 3 In comparing 13'31 and 1'3'32 ACT composi'fcB scores for black and white students, the black pupil composite remained stable at 17 i while the white student composite score increased slightly from 21.'2 in 1'3'31 to 21.7 in 1'3'32. Although LRSD students did not score as high on the SAT test in the verbal <453) and mathematics <48'3) areas as in the previous year, the 1'3'32 mean scores for LRSD students were substantially higher than the National Average scores of 41 verbal and 47S mathematics. Fair High School students scored higher on the SAT than the Arkansas and National average in mathematics. In comparing black and white students. LRSD, Ar kansas and National white students scored higher on the average on the verbal and mathematics sections than black students.

The results from 1988 -1991 reflect the progress of Black male students under the instructional leadership of another principal. Particular focus on Black males is being used because of the enormous gender disparity in performance between black students. Detailed results of the performance of Black male students from 1988 to 1993 can be obtained from the office of Planning, Research, and Evaluation. The results in reading are being provided for you because they are the single most important predictor of future success in educational attainment. The District Summary results are being used as a standard to normalize the results at Garland. READING 1988 1989 1990 1991 1992 1993 District Summary Percent Passed Garland School Percent Passed Difference 78 79 84 88 86 84 73 -5 47 -32 80 -4 77 -11 91 +5 95 +11 The major difference in the variables impacting the results for the last two year has been the emphasis placed on culturally specific content in the school's curriculum. The students at Garland School, in grades 4 through 6, responded to this statement "African-African American History is taught in this school", on the Incentive School Student Survey with 80% favorable response as "ALWAYS". When the outcomes of the MPT performance in Reading and Math were shared with the sixth grade students, they were asked to explain the cause of the difference. They responded by saying that school was about them. They learned a lot about Africa and African Americans. When you compare the District Summary with Garland's progress for the same period. you find a significant difference in gains for Black males, uncharacteristic of the performance level during the tenure of another principal. I would like to get on the agenda to share this with the Board of Directors. I am asking your assistance in making this happen. We can close the gap before the year 2000. cc Monitoring Teams05/21/83 14:36 0501 324 2032 L R School Dlst ODM 121002/003 <1 I I Little Rock School District I t NEWS RELEASE May 21,1993 For more information: Jeanette Wagner, 324-2020 I LITTLE ROCK SCHOOL DISTRICT RH.FASES MINIMUM PERFORMANCE TEST SCORES Three Little Rock School District schools, Cloverdale and Terry Elementary, both, area schools, and Williams Magnet Elementary achieved 85% I mastery of the Arkansas Minimum Performance Test in all areas in all grade levels.

Taking the PSAT/ NMSQT lets you get feedback about academic preparation, get mail from colleges, and get scholarships. The PSAT/NMSQT Student Bulletin has a lot of helpful information about doing well on the test. But it won't help, unless you read it. We want to know what you read (or don't read), and why. Your answers will influence future editions. Thank you. Sincerely, Maureen Welsh Director of School Services P.S. If you tell us who you are, we may contact you.I CENTRAL HIGH SCHOOL 1500 SOUTH PARK STREET LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS 72202 2 / /995 October 17, 1996 Office of ^^^^gregation Moniionna Joy Springer Joshua Intervenors 1723 Broadway Little Rock, AR 72206 Ms. Springer: In response to your request for information regarding PSAT testing practices and procedures at Central High School, the following insights are herein provided according to your fax dated 10/15/96. 1. The number of students according to race, level. gender and grade A. Race White 230 Black 94 Other 22 Total 346 B. Gender WM 78 WF 152 BM 35 BF 59 OM 11 OF 11 Total 346 C.

Total Grade 10 - 120 Total Tested 33 46 79 OM OF 7 5 12 Total Grade 11 - 346 226 The name of the teachers by core subject whose students were given the PSAT. As I indicated in our phone conversation on 10/16/96, I do not fully understand what you are needing here, however, I hope that the following explanation suffices. A. The PSAT is a test which is strongly recommended to be given to 11th grade students, however, we do encourage 10th grade students to take it. that we promote for 10th graders to take. The PLAN Test is a test I make this point because a greater effort of solicitation is made to 11th graders versus 10th graders. Observe, however. that many 10th graders (120) as well as 11th graders (226) took the test. Page 2 B. C. Since any and all students who take the PSAT are enrolled in core subjects, any and all teachers that teach the core areas will have students represented. Is a roster of all my English, math, science and/or social studies teachers being requested here? The PSAT is not administered via classes, e.g., English, math, etc. Testing sites are set up according to our scheme and students from all classes, English, math. etc., are assigned to the sites. Please see the five page special bulletin attachment for the testing sites and the students assigned there. 3. The next PSAT testing will be in October of 1997. Again, it will be recommended for 11th graders, but 10th graders will be encouraged to take it. 4. Provide all documentation that was published by the administration and/or staff to advise students of the PSAT. A. Announcement of PSAT testing is provided in the LRSD's 1996-97 calendar. The District's calendar is presented by the Superintendent to the Board for approval in the Spring each year. All patrons and schools have access to the calendar prior to the beginning of school each year. See attachment. B. Central High School publishes a monthly calendar. It is distributed to all staff the week prior to the beginning of each month. calendar in their classrooms. Teachers are encouraged to post the C. See attachment. Central High communicates all major and/or important events through its newspaper. The- Tiger. The paper is delivered to our students by the journalism department D. twice to three times per month. See attachment. Central attempts to keep its students informed via a Daily Bulletin. The announcements concerning the PSAT were contained in the bulletins on the following dates: 9/20/96 10/09/96 10/01/96 10/10/96 10/04/96 10/11/96 Teachers read the daily bulletin to students during 1st period. See attachment. E. In addition, announcements regarding the PSAT were made via intercom both mornings and afternoons, October 1-4, 1996. Special bulletins were published and distributed 10/7, F. 10/11 and 10/14, 1996. See attached. Counselors personally visited every 11th grade English class during the period 10/1 - 10/11, 1996, in an effort to discuss the importance of the test and to encourage registration.Page 3 G. All teachers, irrespective of subject area and/or grade level, received two (2) special bulletins regarding the PSAT on the following dates: 1996 . See attachment. October 7, 11, and 14, 5. Provide all documentation (Item #4 above) including criteria used to be considered for testing . . . Item #4 contains all documentation asited for in Item #5. There was no additional criteria provided to students except that they pay for the cost of the test, $9.00, at which time the PSAT Student Bulletin was given to every 10th grade student who signed the stand-by list and to all 11th grade students who paid the $9.00. 6.
