WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING AT
This table shows how students with disabilities performed on the
regular state assessments.
The first column shows the total number of students eligible to
take the state assessments; this column is based on the number of
students eligible to take the New Standards Reference Exam
mathematics assessment. It is broken down by school level:
elementary school, middle school, and high school. The first row in
each section (“Total students with or without disabilities”) is the
total number of eligible students in the grade tested (4th, 8th, or
10th). The subsequent rows show the total number of students with
disabilities in the relevant grade, broken into four categories:
students with Individual Education Programs (IEPs) with and without
accommodations and students with 504 plans with and without
accommodations.
The next four columns show, for each category of student, what
percentage reached the standard (attained proficiency) in the
mathematics and English language arts (ELA) sections of the New
Standards Reference Exams and in the Rhode Island Writing and Rhode
Island Health Education assessments.
The results are reported, and averages are computed, by school
level—elementary school, middle school, and high school.
WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR
You would like to see that a high percentage of students in all
categories reached
proficiency in all the state assessments. In addition, you would
like to see that
students with disabilities had about the same proficiency level
(percent proficient)
as students in the state as a whole. If the proficiency level
(percent proficient) for
any category of student fall significantly below the statewide
average for
proficiency, then there is an “equity gap” for that category. These
gaps must be
closed.
