MCAS Release Schedule Update:
The MCAS and AYP Data Review and Release schedule has recently changed, with public release of data (in the School and District Profiles area on the ESE Web site) scheduled for next Tuesday, September 14. Updated reports in the Data Warehouse are scheduled to be available on September 16. The statewide MCAS summary report (overview) for 2010 is now available online.
New Growth Model Tutorial:
As you know, this year's MCAS parent reports will now include growth and performance information for students, schools, and districts. Since the growth model is a new concept, the state has provided a tutorial specifically geared towards parents. Additional resources to help learn more about the growth model are available on the Growth page on the ESE Web site.
