3. How do I calculate expected growth under the ABCs program?

• EOG Reading & Math growth and growth for EOC subjects will be determined by using the same formula

• EOG Reading and Math will be determined by using two years of scores when possible

• EOC scores determined using predictor subject(s) – examples (Algebra 1 predictor – 8th Grade EOG Math) & (Physics – Chemistry & Geometry)

• A Student is expected to do at least as well this year as he/she has done in the past, compared to other NC students who took the test in the past.

• Growth = comparison of current performance to past performance, looking at a student’s position compared to statewide performance

• Determined by calculations that use other Components at HS Level

• Each student will have a Growth Score for each subject taken called Academic Change (Zero or positive AC is good)

• To determine Expected Growth for a school, all of the AC scores are averaged

• If the average is 0.00 or greater, Expected Growth is met (HS have additional components in the model in addition to EOC scores)

• The other components are changes in drop out rate, competency pass rate and percentages of students meeting the College University Prep/College Tech Prep standards.

• Academic Change will calculated only for students who have the necessary test scores, and who have been in membership 140 days (or 70 days for High Schools)
