May 2013 Monthly Update
May 2013 Monthly Update
E-Bulletin: Examining Statewide CCRPI Patterns
On Tuesday, May 7, the Georgia Department of Education (GaDOE) released the first College and Career Readiness Performance Index (CCRPI) scores based upon the 2011-12 school year. CCRPI replaces Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) as Georgia's new statewide public school accountability measure. The index includes three main components--Achievement (70 points), Progress (15), and Achievement Gap (15). It also includes 10 bonus points, called Challenge points, for a total possible score of 110.
The May e-bulletin includes further explanation of the CCRPI indicators and examines statewide patterns in the distribution of scores. Some of the findings include:
The average CCPRI score for both elementary and middle schools is 80.8, whereas the average for high schools is 70.8. Schools that receive high scores in Achievement also receive high Progress and Achievement Gap scores. Thus, the inclusion of a growth component does not seem to provide strong benefit to schools with low proficiency. Challenge points tend to help schools already at the high end of the score distribution. Schools located in cities performed significantly lower than schools in suburbs, towns, or rural areas. Suburbs, towns, and rural areas performed similarly. As the percent of students eligible for free/reduced price lunch increases, the school's CCRPI score decreases. While this relationship exists, schools at nearly all poverty levels were able to achieve high CCRPI scores.
