Summary
District presenter told the board that Greensville Elementary scored ~73.7 (identified 'off track'), EW White Middle School scored ~82.8 ('on track'), and Greensville County High School scored ~94.6 ('distinguished') under the VDOE point-based framework. Presenter explained mastery, growth and readiness components.
A district assessment presenter reviewed changes to Virginia's accreditation and accountability framework and reported school-level framework scores for Greensville County Public Schools at the Feb. 9 meeting.
Under the point-based system explained by the presenter, mastery (reading, math, science and EL progress), growth (reading and math), and readiness (attendance, advanced coursework, graduation measures) combine to produce a framework score and identification.
Reported results: Greensville Elementary School received a framework score of approximately 73.7 and is identified as 'off track'; EW White Middle School received about 82.8 and is identified as 'on track'; and Greensville County High School received about 94.6 and is identified as 'distinguished.' The presenter noted that mastery, growth and readiness are calculated differently for elementary, middle and high school levels and described thresholds for 'on track' and 'distinguished' identifications.
Board members asked clarifying questions about point thresholds and the meaning of 'needs intensive support' for schools with persistent low identifications. The presenter said schools identified as 'off track' may enter a 'needs intensive support' category if concerns persist over multiple years, and that on-track thresholds align with an 80-point benchmark while distinguished typically aligns above 90 points.
