Summary

Assistant Superintendent Andrew Kraft recommended, and staff supported, selecting option B as an alternative accountability measure for non‑traditional schools (60% growth, 20% persistence, 20% achievement); the board expressed support and had no substantive objections.

Assistant Superintendent Andrew Kraft briefed the board on options for an alternative accountability model for the district’s non‑traditional schools and recommended option B, which weights measures as 60% growth, 20% student persistence and 20% achievement.

Kraft said the district had helped craft option B and noted it better captures outcomes for schools that serve students with particular needs. He also recommended that, when insufficient student testing data exist, the district return scores to the students’ home schools rather than creating a separate rating based on sparse samples. The board heard the recommendation and did not object.

The item was presented as a policy recommendation for the district’s non‑traditional school accountability approach.
