Sec. 4.
(a) The
performance domain shall consist of an English/language arts indicator and a
mathematics indicator. A school's final performance domain category placement
shall be determined based on the weighted average of the awarded performance
indicator points. The weight of the English/language arts indicator shall be
fifty percent (50%) of the performance domain, and the weight of the
mathematics indicator shall be fifty percent (50%) of the performance domain.
Grades shall be assigned in accordance with the following points scale:
(1) 90.0 - 100.0 points = A
(2) 80.0 - 89.9 points = B
(3) 70.0 - 79.9 points = C
(4) 60.0 - 69.9 points = D
(5) 0.0 - 59.9 points = F.
(b) The English/language arts
indicator for performance shall be determined in accordance with the following:

for grades 11 and 12.
(2) A school
must have at least thirty (30) eligible students in the accountable year to
obtain English/language arts points.
(3) If a school does not have at least thirty
(30) eligible students in the accountable year, the school's English/language
arts points will be based on the results of the mandatory annual assessments of
a cumulative aggregate of eligible students.
(4) Points awarded for English/language arts
shall equal the product of eligible students that passed the mandatory
statewide annual assessment for English/language arts and the assessment
participation rate as follows:
(A) If the
assessment participation rate on the English/language arts portion of the
mandatory annual assessments is greater than or equal to ninety-five percent
(95%), then the participation rate shall be one (1).
(B) If the assessment participation rate on
the English/language arts portion of the mandatory annual assessments is less
than ninety-five percent (95%), then the participation rate shall equal the
participation rate in decimal form.
(c) The mathematics indicator for performance
shall be determined in accordance with the following:
(1) Points shall be awarded for grades 3
through 10, respectively, where data are available. Points shall not be awarded
for grades 11 and 12.
(2) A school
must have at least thirty (30) eligible students in the accountable year to
obtain mathematics points.
(3) If a
school does not have at least thirty (30) eligible students in the accountable
year, the school's mathematics points will be based on the results of the
mandatory annual assessments of a cumulative aggregate of eligible
students.
(4) Points awarded for
mathematics shall equal the product of eligible students that passed the
mandatory statewide annual assessment for mathematics and the assessment
participation rate as follows:
(A) If the
assessment participation rate on the mathematics portion of the mandatory
annual assessments is greater than or equal to ninety-five percent (95%), then
the participation rate shall be one (1).
(B) If the assessment participation rate on
the mathematics portion of the mandatory annual assessments is less than
ninety-five percent (95%), then the participation rate shall equal the
participation rate in decimal form.
