ESSA School Support Designations • Comprehensive School Improvement (CSI) • Additional Targeted Support Improvement (ATSI) • Targeted Support Improvement (TSI)

Comprehensive School Improvement (CSI) • Identified from among all schools in the state • Bottom 5% of school sites • Any high school with a graduation rate of 67% or below will also be identified as a Comprehensive School Improvement (CSI) Site • Designated every three (3) years • Comprehensive School Improvement (CSI) Cohort one (2018-2021)

Additional Targeted Support Improvement (ATSI) • Identified annually • Uses same methodology as Comprehensive School Improvement • Divided into student group performance: • Economically disadvantaged students; • Students with disabilities • English Learners (EL) • Major racial and ethnic groups • American Indian • Asian/Pacific Islander • Black/African American • Hispanic/Latino • White • Two or more races

Targeted School Improvement (TSI) • Targeted School Improvement (TSI) • Designated annually • When at least one student group is in the bottom 5% on two or more indicators in the accountability system • First year of designation is 2019-2020 • Three consecutive years of identification = Comprehensive School Improvement designation

School Improvement Process Step 2: Select relevant, evidence-based interventions & practices. ESSA requires that designated sites use Evidence-Based Interventions (EBIs) for improvement Evidence-based refers to a strategy or intervention that demonstrates a statistically significant effect on improving student outcomes (ESEA section 8101(21)(A))

Evidence-Based Interventions Three levels of evidence: • Strong evidence - demonstrated by at least one well-designed and well- implemented experimental study; • Moderate evidence - demonstrated by at least one well-designed and well- implemented quasi-experimental study; • Promising evidence - demonstrated by at least one well-designed and well- implemented correlational study with statistical control for selection bias. *Fourth level: • Evidence building - demonstrates a rationale based on high-quality research findings or positive evaluation that an intervention is likely to improve student outcomes that do not yet have an evidence-base qualifying as one of the first three levels.

School Improvement Process Step 3: Plan for implementation • Spring 2019 • Regional Meetings • Training • On-Site Visits • Technical Assistance • Professional Learning • Develop SMART goals • Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time Bound • Develop Action Plan

School Improvement Process Step 4: Implementation of Plan • 2019-2020 • Assignment of School Support Specialist to Site • Instructional Coaching • Leadership Coaching • Model Teaching • Professional Learning

School Improvement Process Step 5: Examine & Reflect • Quarterly review of site benchmark data • Progress monitoring by OSDE staff • End of year data review • Revise plan as needed
