About the Value-Added Measure

• In 2010-2011, the Ohio Department of Education used the Value-Added Measure to show how much growth students made on the Ohio Achievement Test since the last school year.
• The state expects that student test scores will show an average year's worth of growth compared to test scores from the previous year.
• Schools that meet the state's growth expectation receive a checkmark and the rating "Met Expected Growth." Schools whose growth is greater than the state's expectation receive a plus sign and the rating "Above Expected Growth." Schools that did not achieve as much growth as the state expected receive a minus sign and the rating "Below Expected Growth."
• Ohio's Value-Added Measure is not the same as Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP), a federal measure which uses different criteria.

About the Tests

• In 2010-2011 Ohio used the Ohio Achievement Test (OAT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 5 and 8 in science.
• The OAT is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Ohio.
• The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.

About the Tests

• In 2010-2011 Ohio used the Ohio Achievement Test (OAT) to test students in grades 3 through 8 in reading and math, and in grades 5 and 8 in science.
• The OAT is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Ohio.
• The different student groups are identified by the Ohio Department of Education. If there are fewer than 10 students in a particular group, the state doesn't report data for that group.
• The goal is for all students to score at or above proficient on the test.

About the Performance Index

• Ohio uses the Performance Index to provide an overall indication of how well students perform on its standardized tests each year.
• The Performance Index scores are based upon how well each student does on all tested subjects in grades 3 through 8 and 10. Schools and districts earn anywhere from 1.2 points for each student scoring at the advanced level to zero points for each untested student.
• The Performance Index ranges between 0 and 120, with 100 as the statewide goal for all students.
