Comprehensive Support and Improvement Schools (CSI)

• Lowest performing in state
• Identified at least every 3 years
• Bottom 5%
• Any school with a 4 year grad rate of

less than 67% that does not have a five or six year grad of at least 67%

• Schools identified for TSI that have

not improved over time

Targeted Support and Improvement Schools (TSI)

• Lowest performing in state for one or

more subgroups

• Identified annually
• Any school with a subgroup of

students consistently underperforming on the state’s indicators

Subgroup ups

• Schools will receive annual ratings for subgroups of 30
• r more student results for a subgroup
• NOTE: 30 is a cumulative score, therefore, if 15

students in grade 3 took the ELA exam in an identified sub group and the same 15 students took the math exam, a subgroup of 30 is defined
