Understanding the
Pennsylvania School
Performance Profile
Proposed
Introduction
January 11, 2013
Purpose
The PA School Performance Profile is designed to:
 Provide a building level academic score for teachers
as part of the Educator Effectiveness System
 Inform the public of the performance of each school,
comprehensive career and technical center, cyber
charter and charter school in Pennsylvania
 Provide parents and taxpayers performance
measures for the school/district of residence,
5
neighboring schools/districts and schools/districts across
the state

Purpose
For LEAs, the School Performance Profile
will serve multiple purposes:
 Inform and guide goal setting, resource
allocation, and targets for improved student
achievement
 Communicate performance to various
constituencies
6
 Compare performance to other schools
 Encourage implementation of best practice

Data
 No new data will be collected
 Baseline year is reported as 2011- 2012 data
 Demonstration site displays 2010 – 2011 data:
14% of schools scored 90 or higher.
64% of schools scored 70 to 89.9
15% of scores are between 60 and 60.9
7% scored below 60
 All data is public
 All data now in a single repository

Demographic Fast Factsasi
• District and School (Data not used in formula
calculations.)
– Demographics
– Career and Technical Center
– Supporting Intermediate Unit
– Percent Enrollment by Ethnicity (Percentage of enrollment is
listed, but is not in the SPP for calculating academic performance score.
Economics determines factors of student success, not ethnicity.)
9
– Percent Enrollment by Historically Low Performing
Students (This group and All Students evaluated in the formula.)
– Link to Supplemental Reports (Ex. Sp. Ed Report)

Academic Performance Score
•
The score for a school is based upon multiple
measures which define high performing schools.
(classroom observations, teacher specific data, elective data, and
building level data) (Educator Effectiveness System Act 82 of
2012; beginning 2013-2014 school year, 15% of each teacher and
principal evaluation – building level data)
•
Many data elements are combined to create the
academic score (Derived from the SPP). These
elements are categorized into five areas
shown on

the next slide. (Refer to Understanding Academic Performance Score Handout.)

Closing the Achievement Gap
Sample Calculation:
• Proficient/Advanced = 40%
• Gap between 40% and 100% is 60%
• Must close one-half of gap over a 6-year
period
• Gap closure = 30% over 6-years

• Annual goal = 5% per year (cumulative)

Where the goals reached?
•

•
•
Do you understand the purpose of the School Performance Profile?
Did you gain background on the proposed SPP website?
Are you able to define data elements to calculate SPP?
Do you understand that data matters? Update EDNA and keep PIMS
correct?
Did you know you will see your SPP prior to going public in April of 2013?
Did you know the SPP is still evolving and is a work in progress?
PDE has developed an easily accessible website that is a fair, comprehensive,
and transparent repository.
SPP materials are being developed for reaching out to your communities to
help support your communication.
