| OK | Signed into law 05/2005 | P-12 | One section of this bill creates the Student Tracking and Reporting (STAR) Pilot Program. Requires interoperability with other state student data management and reporting systems; directs exploration of delivery systems for certain purposes; requires utilization of certain system model; requires model to include certain capabilities; creates the Student Tracking and Reporting (STAR) Coordinating Committee.The purpose of the Pilot Program is to provide for the development and implementation of a horizontal school district and school site level student data management and reporting system based on the Schools Interoperability Framework (SIF) industry open-standard. The developed student data management and reporting system is required to provide horizontal articulation of student academic data, student demographic data and other relevant student information. Horizontal articulation must assimilate the data from the classroom level, to the school site level, and to the district level, with the capability to analyze and disseminate the data back to the school site and classroom level when required by teachers and administrators to support informed and improved classroom instruction. The Pilot Program must incorporate the following objectives:
1. Provide for academic performance reporting at the district level for all students in grade levels five, eight, ten and twelve. Academic performance reporting shall include report card grades, student performance results from multiple standardized assessments, including at least one norm-referenced assessment, state testing program results for grade levels five, eight, and End-of-Instruction assessments, and ACT college entrance examination scores when applicable;
2. Provide for a horizontal data aggregation system at the school district and site level that facilitates storage, retrieval and distribution of data both horizontally, at the school district and site levels, and vertically to the Wave Program, including all necessary student data elements to support academic performance reporting;
3. Provide for a reporting structure at the district level that shall address all state and federal reporting requirements, including those specified in the federal act known as the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB), and data elements used in determining district and site performance levels for the Academic Performance Index. The district level reporting structure shall also provide for the transfer of aggregated school district and site level data in Extensible Markup Language (XML), an industry open-standard data format, to both state and federal agencies if required by the agencies in an aggregated format;
4. Develop, define and implement necessary data elements and codes to meet reporting requirements to support horizontal articulation of data at the district and site level and to provide effective transfer of data for state and federal reporting. Provided, that if SIF or the State Board of Education has not defined data elements and codes necessary for the development of the student data management and reporting system, the participating pilot program school districts may create the necessary data elements and codes to support horizontal articulation of data at district and site levels and to provide effective transfer of data for state and federal reporting requirements. Nothing in this paragraph shall prohibit the State Board of Education from defining data elements and codes not defined in the SIF specifications for the Wave Program and from requiring all school districts, including the pilot program school districts, to use the data elements for the vertical transfer of data. These data elements and codes may include, but are not limited to, expanded student entry, gain and loss codes and unique course identification codes;
5. Provide for a historical data warehousing system at the school district and site levels to archive and retrieve comprehensive student data in order to provide all Pilot Program teachers and administrators with the necessary student academic performance indicators, including report card grades and multiple assessment data, to inform and improve instructional programs at the classroom level;
6. Provide for the aggregation of student performance credentialing at both school district and site levels. The Pilot Program schools shall develop credentialing criteria that shall include, but is not limited to, all areas of academic performance as outlined in paragraph 1 of this subsection, plus additional performance indicators pertaining to life skills, citizenship, and when applicable, employability skills and career awareness/exploration. Pilot Program schools shall develop a summary or condensed portfolio of student credentialing results within the transcript of all graduating students, to include cumulative credentialing data for students from grades six through twelve. The student credentialing portfolio shall be developed so that it can be electronically distributed via secure vertical transmission. Any transmission of a student portfolio to institutions of higher education and to other entities such as potential employers shall comply with the provisions of the Family Education Rights & Privacy Act (FERPA);
7. Provide for a continuous school and student improvement framework through the measurement of comprehensive, cumulative student growth by analyzing multiple academic performance measurements. Such measurements shall document relative growth over time so as to determine continuous improvement at the individual student, grade and school-wide levels; and
8. Provide for professional development in the use of techniques and tools to improve student achievement to teachers in the Pilot Program. Provide training to administrators and support personnel in the implementation of the student data management and reporting system.
