[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basis high school tier 1

Basis middle tier 2 - student attrition hurts [/quote]

Not really. Attrition counts for 10% points for Basis middle. What really hurt them was their very, very poor growth (0.3 score out of 20.0 in ELA and 7.7 out of 20 for math). These are worth 20% each. [/quote]

Could someone explain this metric to me?  I sound dumb, but I don’t really get it or why it’s so important or how BASIS could only get .3 points out of 20![/quote]

Because if the students are already high when they come to school, what actual learning are they doing if they can't show growth after being at the school. Pretty simple really. [/quote]
Yeah but you should at least still show incremental growth even ignore you came in with 4s and 5s (which Parcc scores show that is not the case). A student scoring a 450 in math should at least be able to get to 455. The reason Basis is getting 0.3 is because they have many students showing they are getting lower total scores. It’s not all about scoring 1,2,3,4,5.[/quote]

For those who care to dive into what the MGP means - here's how it is calculated in all of DC (DCPS and charter schools). https://osse.dc.gov/sites/default/files/dc/sites/osse/publication/attachments/DC%20Growth%20Tech%20Report.pdf[/quote]
