Gain ScoresGain Scores
Commonly referred to as “Learning Gains”
The amount of progress a student makes in one school year.
Learning Gains: Who Qualifies?
All students with a pre- and post-test, including all subgroups (ESE, LEP, etc.).
All students with matched, consecutive year (i.e. 2005 & 2006) FCAT SSS results, grades 4-10, who were enrolled in the same school surveys 2 & 3 (FTE).
Learning Gains: Which Scores?
Gains apply in reading and math, not writing or science.
Pre-test may be from same school, same district, or anywhere in the state.
Learning Gains:What equals Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)? A. Improve FCAT Achievement Levels from 2005 to 2006 (e.g. 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5)
OR
B. Maintain “satisfactory” Achievement Levels from 2005-2006 (e.g. 3-3, 4-4, 5-5)
OR
C. Demonstrate more than one year’s growth within Level 1 or Level 2 - determined by DSS Cut Points (not applicable for retained students)
Learning Gains: Retainees
A retained student can only be counted as making adequate
progress if he/she:
Moves up one level. (e.g. 1-2, 2-3, 3-4, 4-5)
Maintains a level 3, 4, or 5.
Developmental Scale Score Gains Table (DSS Cut
Points)Students achieving within Level 1 (or within Level 2) for two consecutive years must gain at least one point more than those listed in the table in order to satisfy the “making annual learning gains” component of the school accountability system.

Teacher Learning Gains Based on Data Display
5 out of 7 students made learning gains. 71% of this teacher’s students made learning gains
and add points towards the school’s grade. No points are given to the school for Student F
because he was retained and stayed within level 1 – even though he made significant gains in DSS points.
No points are given to Student G because he decreased a level.
Total Number of Students with a Pre and Post-test who qualify for learning gain calculations:
Reason AIncreased 1 or more Achievement Levels
Reason BMaintains “satisfactory” levels (3, 4, or 5)
Reason CDSS Target Gain (More than a year’s growth)
