We all want our students to be successful, but we need to define what success means. The following are 11 student success measures that will tell us whether we are accomplishing our vision for student learning. Current GIPS data related to the those listed below help define our starting point in this work.
1. Increased percentage of incoming kindergartners having participated in a high-quality early childhood education experience.
2. Increased percentage of students meeting or exceeding proficiency every year across all assessed grades and subjects assessed on the Nebraska State Accountability (NeSA) centralized state testing process.
3. Decreased achievement gaps among all student sub-groups on state accountability tests.
4. Decreased percentage of students who are absent 15 or more days as reported by Nebraska Department of Education (Excessive Absenteeism).
5. Decreased number of students who are suspended or expelled and a reduction in disproportionate (by race/ethnicity, poverty, and identified disability) suspensions and expulsions.
6. Increased percentage of students with a high level of school connectedness and high commitment to learning.
7. Increased percentage of students self-reporting growth mindset, self-efficacy, self-management, and social awareness.
8. Increased percentage of students on track to graduate at 3rd, 8th, and 9th grades.
9. Increased percentage of students graduating from high school in four years.
