| NM | Adopted 12/2002 | P-12 | Establishes rules annually measuring public schools on the five statewide indicators. All scores, rates, and other measures used in the Accountability Rating System are to be verified by the department. Assessment data is to be considered for accountability ratings only when a group represents 10 or more students. Utilizes results from the state- mandated norm referenced achievement test(s) ('NRT') in Spanish or English, and all accomodations or exemptions must comply with federal guidelines. Ratings of "probationary" may be appealed to the Educational Standards Commission. Schools have one full year from the time they're identified as in need of corrective action to meet the standards for improvement. NEW MEXICO REG 3643 (SN)

A school's rating will determine when intervention is appropriate. B. A school's rating is determined by the percentage of data points that are rated as exemplary, exceeds standards, meets standards, and probationary. C. The ratings shall be publicized each year and provided by the department to districts and to schools. D. New schools are not rated. E. A school that receives an overall rating of probationary for a first or second time and will enter either the performance warned or the first year of school improvement categories may appeal the rating to the Educational Standards Commission. The appeal must be made to the State Superintendent of Public Instruction ("State Superintendent") in writing within twenty days of the school's receipt of official notice of the school rating. Provides for use of dropout rates, annual performance measurement (of schools). Uses test results of students in attendance on or prior to the 40-day attendacne count. Considers LEP and IEP test results. Small schools use "rolling averages." Attendance is included as an indicator. Allows intervention at school and district level. 6.19.2.11 allows suspension of a local board until requirements of law, standards or rules have been met, compliance is assured, and the state board removes the suspension. The authority and responsibility of a local board may occur voluntarily -- as an agreement between the state superintendent and the board. Involuntary suspension of local boards may occur if a school within the district has been rated probationary for two out of three consecutive years and has failed to meet the criteria for the extension of school improvement rating for two out of three consecutive years.

| CT | Repealed 09/2002 | P-12 | In 1999, the State Board of Education prepared a list of elementary and middle schools, by school district, that are in need of improvement based on student performance and performance trends on the state-wide mastery examinations. A new list will be prepared on or before February 1, 2003, and every three years thereafter. On or before January 1, 2000, April 1, 2003, and every three years thereafter, the superintendent of schools in districts that have a school on the list must meet with the Commissioner of Education, or the commissioner's designee, to discuss the process for improving school performance. The schools on the list are required to develop a school improvement plan, and take the necessary steps to become accredited by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges. The improvement plan is to be developed in consultation with the school's principal, teachers and the parents of students attending the school and must include criteria for use in measuring progress. The department of education will provide assistance on the development of these plans. Once completed, the improvement plans must be submitted to the department for review and comments, and then to the local board of education for approval. The plan is to be implemented at the beginning of the school year following approval. Enabling Legislation:

| TN | Signed into law 07/2002 | P-12 | By September 1 of each year, the commissioner is required to recommend for approval to the state board a listing of all schools to be placed on notice or probation for failure to make adequate progress. If a school system is deemed by the commissioner as not carrying out its responsibilities to a school or schools on notice or probation for technical or other assistance, the system may be included in the recommendation to the state board to be placed on notice or probation. Schools or school systems on notice or probation must abide by guidelines established by the commissioner. During the year on notice, the state department and the office of education accountability are to jointly study any school and/or school system placed on notice. The study will include findings on how the school and/or school system can meet the performance standards for adequate yearly progress. The commissioner has the authority to: (A) Approve the allocation of state discretionary grants; and/or (B) Provide technical assistance through an outside expert. The director of each local education agency serving schools placed on notice must promptly notify parents of students of such identification and revise school improvement plans. If a system or school does not meet the standards for adequate yearly progress by the end of the first year on notice, the system or school may be placed on probation. During the first year a system or school is on probation, the commissioner has the authority to: (A) Approve a school system's allocation of financial resources to a system or school on probation; and (B) Appoint a local community review committee to approve and monitor the school improvement plan. (2) The director of each local education agency serving schools placed on probation is responsible for the following actions: (A) Prompt notification to parents of students of such identification; (B) Implementation of performance contracts for the principal; (C) Provision for remediation services for students; (D) Notification to parents of their option to transfer their children to another public school within the system; and (E) Revision of school improvement plans to incorporate joint study findings. After two consecutive years of probation, if a school or system does not make progress to meet the standards for adequate yearly progress, the commissioner has the authority to: (1) Assume any or all powers of governance for the school or system, provided, however that in the case where the commissioner assumes governance of a school or system the district will continue to be accountable for the match required by the basic funding formula for students served; and/or (2) Recommend to the state board that the director of the local education agency be replaced; and/or (3) Recommend to the state board that some or all of the local board of education members be replaced. (4) If the state board concurs with the recommendation, the commissioner is required to order the removal of some or all of the board members and/or director of schools and shall declare a vacancy in the office or offices. Vacancies on the board are to be filled by the local legislative body until the next general election. If the entire board is removed, the commissioner appoints three citizens to serve the remainder of the term. http://www.legislature.state.tn.us/bills/currentga/Chapter/PC0860.pdf

| IL | Active 06/2002 | P-12 | In 1992 the Academic Watch List was enacted into law in Illinois; the Academic Early Warning List
(AEWL) became law in 1996. Schools with low or declining assessment results were identified as not
having met state standards and were placed on the state's Academic Early Warning List. Continued
declining assessment results could result in a school being placed on the Academic Watch List. Schools placed on the Academic Watch List are subject to having personnel replaced or the reassignment of students to another school. In 1995, a system was designed to inform the public of schools' financial status, thus extending accountability requirements to financial management. Using language similar to academic accountability, this financial management monitoring system is called the Financial Warning and Watch List.

| CA | Signed into law 05/2002 | P-12 | Modifies 1999 Immediate Intervention/Underperforming Schools Program (IIUSP), which formerly required that every participating school district contract with an external evaluator for assistance in development of the school's action plan. Bill allows district to alternatively contract with an entity that has proven, successful expertise specific to the challenges inherent in low-performing schools, including institutions of higher education, county offices of education or school district personnel. Modifies High Priority Schools Grant Program for Low-Performing Schools to automatically approve school for participation upon school's completion of an action plan for participation in the federal program meeting certain requirements that plan for IIUSP participation must meet, and changes deadlines for submission and approval of school action plan during FY 01-02. Increases to $400 the amount of per-pupil money provided under the High Priority Schools Grant Program for Low Performing Schools. Specifies that High Priority Program school must assess pupils' progress with curriculum-based tests proven to be "valid and reliable." Mandates that already-required department study on sustainability of funding for low-performing schools include "(1) An objective rather than a comparative view of the necessity of sustaining supplemental funding over time to address the ongoing needs of low-performing pupils, and the impact of policies that only provide funding over a specified period of time. (2) A description of the ongoing needs of low-performing schools, as identified in needs assessments submitted pursuant to paragraph (3) of subdivision (a) of 52055.620 and the sources of funding schools used to meet these needs. (3) An analysis of the use of funds provided pursuant to this article and the effectiveness of that use in meeting the continued or changing needs of communities served by low-performing schools. This analysis shall include an evaluation of the growth in academic achievement realized by participating schools and the ability of those schools to sustain growth in academic achievement if funding is continued. (4) An assessment of whether local, state, and federal resources are likely to be sufficient to sustain all or some of the academic improvements made in low-performing schools after this state subsidy expires, taking into account prospects for the subsequent pupil population's incidence of poverty and low socioeconomic status." Requires every school district with any schools participating in High Priority Schools Grant Program to submit to state superintendent an analysis of the impact, costs and benefits of the program to the district and local participating schools. Requires the state superintendent to develop and the state board to approve guidelines for an RFP for an independent evaluator to create a multiyear comprehensive evaluation of the implementation, impact, costs and benefits of the program and to release the results of the report to the General Assembly, the Governor and other interested parties. Also specifies that average daily attendance funds are to be allocated to local education agencies and that child care and preschool programs whose average daily enrollment helps determine the allocation must be operated by local education agencies under contract with the Child Development Division of the State Department of Education. Bill modifies means of determining the average daily enrollment of children in preschool and child care programs.

| WV | Signed into law 03/2002 | P-12 | Calls for development and implementation of a system to hold schools accountable for student performance and progress toward obtaining a high quality education. Creates a "Process for Improving Education Council" comprised of the Legislative Oversight Commission on Education Accountability, the Governor and Chancellor of the Higher Education Policy Commission. Council has the authority to meet and consult with the state board and to make recommendations on issues related to student, schools and school system performance. To ensure high quality education continues to be delivered, the statute grants the state board the authority to intervene again in county systems where they had once intervened within the past five years. If a second intervention is necessary, the bill provides the state board the authority to delegate additional authority to the state superintendent to conduct hearings or to make personnel changes.
