Southern Regional High SchoolFocus on Proficiency and “passing” scores
on the HSPA • HSPA (High School Proficiency Assessment) is used to determine
student achievement in reading, writing, and mathematics as specified in the New Jersey Core Curriculum Content Standards.
• Students are required to pass with a minimum score of “proficient” in order to graduate High School.
• First-time 11th grade students who fail the HSPA in March of their junior year will have an opportunity to retest in October and March of their senior year
• Those who do not pass by March of their senior year will take the AHSA (Alternative High School Assessment) as an alternative means of meeting the state’s graduate assessment requirement.

Concerns related to HSPA Scores
• In comparison with other schools in the DE District Factor Group, Southern Regional has progressively fallen in score rank for Language Arts (4th- 11th- 20th) and finally saw an increase in 2011 for Mathematics(16th- 28th- 16th).
• Southern Regional scores of “Proficiency” for Language Arts took a decline in 2012 • Mathematics scores for “Partially Proficient” have
remained higher than desired- particularly for special education students
![Page 32: Jaime M. Chavan EDC 6013 – Summer 2012 (Session 1) Artifact DATA-BASED STRATEGIES FOR DECISION MAKING.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ec85503460f94bd4df6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Positive trends in HSPA Scores
• Southern Regional “Proficiency” scores for Language Arts and Mathematics were higher than State averages in both 2010 and 2011
• Southern Regional “Partial Proficiency” scores for Language Arts have steadily declined from 2008-2012
• The number of “Advanced Proficient” scores for Language Arts have steadily increased from 2008-2012
• Southern Regional HSPA scores still remain in the top 30% for our District Factor Group (DE)
![Page 33: Jaime M. Chavan EDC 6013 – Summer 2012 (Session 1) Artifact DATA-BASED STRATEGIES FOR DECISION MAKING.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ec85503460f94bd4df6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
ACTION PLAN TO CONTINUE WITH IMPROVING STUDENT TEST SCORES TO OBTAIN “PROFICIENCY”
ON THE HSPA
• Educational Proficiency Plan (EPP): For every student who enters grade 9 who did not score proficient on the New Jersey ASK 8 as required by the state of New Jersey.
• Students who fall into this category are monitored by the Math and English teachers, as well as guidance, from grade 9 through grade 11 until they score proficient
• The EPP follows the student if they score not proficient in grade 11 until they score proficient on the HSPA in grade 12
![Page 34: Jaime M. Chavan EDC 6013 – Summer 2012 (Session 1) Artifact DATA-BASED STRATEGIES FOR DECISION MAKING.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ec85503460f94bd4df6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Continued Curriculum Alignment
• Every math and language arts class includes HSPA preparation questions and HSPA warm-ups. Curriculum in math and language arts classes is aligned with the New Jersey Common Core State Standards and the HSPA clusters.
• Students with disabilities receive HSPA preparation designed to meet their individual needs
• A “math lab” is available Monday and Wednesday after school for students looking to improve skills as well
![Page 35: Jaime M. Chavan EDC 6013 – Summer 2012 (Session 1) Artifact DATA-BASED STRATEGIES FOR DECISION MAKING.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ec85503460f94bd4df6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Ways we can effect positive change
Ensure students are placed in the proper courses to meet their learning needs
Observe teacher lessons and provide a curriculum that is well-aligned to the HSPA
Provide professional development opportunities for teachers that focus on improving learning in relation to the HSPA state assessment
Hold information sessions for parents so they can help their child succeed
![Page 36: Jaime M. Chavan EDC 6013 – Summer 2012 (Session 1) Artifact DATA-BASED STRATEGIES FOR DECISION MAKING.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56649ec85503460f94bd4df6/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Activities/collaboration projects
Continued availability of HSPA Prep courses, Educational Proficiency Plans, Math labs
Development of school HSPA action committee made of teachers and administrators who will meet to discuss trends in HSPA scores and brainstorm ways to improve teaching strategies to target students struggling to obtain proficiency
Create service-learning project for high-achieving Senior students: after school HSPA Prep Classes in which high-achieving students tutor those wishing to work to better prepare for the HSPA
