ED recommends users of the SY 2020-21 Assessment Data review the data notes and state explanations to understand the full context of state, local, and school implementation of the statewide assessments. Due to the circumstances created by the COVID-19 pandemic, ED waived the reporting of the statewide assessments in the 2019-2020 school year and encouraged states to consider flexibilities regarding the timing, length, and type of administration of assessments in the 2020-2021 school year. Please be sure to review ED's letter at https/oese.ed.gov/files/2021/02/DCL-on-assessments-and-acct-final.pdf regarding assessments for 2020-21. Statewide assessments were administered in most States in 2020-21 but, due to continued disruptions from the pandemic, rates of participation varied widely in schools throughout the country. Because assessment participation varied so widely, overall results for schools, districts and States may not be representative for those entities, and data for the school year 2020-2021 data may not be comparable with other years.

Although SY20-21 assessment data were collected, due to COVID-19 challenges, the data are not comparable to other years. Therefore, the Department is not including SY20-21 assessment data on the performance graph on this dashboard.

Achievement SEA to SCH comparison - [MATHEMATICS AND READING/LANGUAGE ARTS]: The SEA FS175 number of students in the MILCNCTD subgroup(s) who took a(n) ALL assessment and received a valid score for GRADE(S) 4 is different from the sum of the SCH level counts of students who took an assessment and received a valid score (FS175). The discrepancy is 210 students, or -20.49%
Similar SEA to SCH discrepancies exist for the FS178 number of students who took an assessment and received a valid score. |
Similar to students in foster care and homeless students, military-affiliated students may be more mobile than other groups of students. In such scenarios, a student may not spend the majority of his/her time in one particular school, or even school district. Rather than assigning students to "Accountable" schools and LEAs for participation and proficiency purposes, they are more accurately reported with "Participation" schools and LEAs. The Participation IRN follows the same logic as the Accountable IRN, in that students who are not reported with a "Participation SCH" or "Participation LEA" are rolled up to the SEA level for participation and proficiency calculations, and are reported as such. This policy of "rolling up" students who do not meet Full Academic Year criteria in a single LEA is not based on any demographic attribute, so the higher state-level totals occur across all grade levels, racial/ethnic statuses, assessment types, etc. The Ohio Department of Education follows all published file specifications for reporting of data, including Full Academic Year considerations, so students are indeed reported at the LEA and SCH levels regardless of Full Academic Year considerations. ED will note that this scenario occurs in Ohio on a yearly basis, lending credibility to the fact that it is a normal and expected data observation. |
