vote today is to send it out to public comment
publish all data
lowest performing groups published
proposing not issuing targets this year
Hills: in memo: is there an expectation that beginning with next year, traditional targets would be published
Curtin: yes
gives Commissioner authority to refrain from certain reporting this school year
back to using this year's data as a baseline for next year and going forward
Stewart: how is the Department looking at accountability more broadly speaking in terms of the equity lens?
Curtin: we are always looking at ways in which we can improve the accountability system and will continue to
in terms of equity, strong focus on student groups and try to draw attention to where there is low performance among student groups where that is
Stewart: MCAS and the way it exacerbates problems, tie to socio-economic factors
while I think I am supportive of what's happening here, I just think it's really critical that we look at that
Curtin: "I would agree with you, Member Stewart"
give us a good baseline for what's moving forward
