Please use the above
table to identify the accountability criteria and disaggregated groups for which
the school will use Contract for Excellence funds to close the achievement gap
and the percent of the targeted gap reduction. In Column 1, the following
accountability criteria may be entered:
Grade 3-8 English language arts, Grade 3-8 mathematics, high school
English language arts, high school mathematics, elementary-middle science, and
graduation rate. In Column 2, the
following disaggregated groups may be entered: All students, Asian, Black,
Hispanic, Multicultural, Native American, White, Limited English proficient,
low-income, and students with disabilities.
In Column 3, enter the targeted percentage by which the school intends
to close the gap between a Performance Index of 200 and the school’s Performance
Index in 2006-07 for the specified accountability criterion and disaggregated
group.
The identified
accountability criteria and disaggregated groups should be focused on those for
which the school has failed to make Adequate Yearly Progress in past
years. The specified percent gap
reduction should be a minimum of ten percent. Please add additional rows as
needed if the school will target more eight disaggregated groups.
If Contract for
Excellence funds are not being targeted to help a school demonstrate gap
reduction on an accountability criterion in 2007-08 (for example,
implementation of all day pre-kindergarten programs or reduction of class sizes
in grades K-2 will not have an immediate impact on AYP in 2007-08), please use
the table on the following page to indicate the achievement targets for these
funds.
