Proposed CS/SB 1522

Overview of Changes

Proposed CS/SB 1522

• Eliminates differentiated accountability categories

• FDOE identifies public schools for interventions based upon a school earning a grade of “D” or “F”– Convert the school to a district-managed turnaround school– Reassign students to another school and monitor the progress of each

reassigned student– Close the school and reopen it as one or more charter schools, each

with a governing board with a demonstrated record of effectiveness– Contract with an outside entity that has a demonstrated record of

effectiveness to operate the school– Districts to develop a hybrid version of the four existing options or use

another school turnaround model demonstrated to be effective in improving school performance

Elementary and Secondary Education Act

(ESEA) Waiver

USDOEApproved February 9, 2012

Overview of Changes

ESEA Waiver

• Includes ELL students who have been in the country more than one year in all components of the school grading system

• Includes all SWD students in all components of the school grading system

ESEA Waiver

• Determines support status by using school grades

• Identifies only schools graded as “C”, “D”, or “F” for differentiated support

Differentiated Support of SchoolsC D FSupport

ESEA Waiver

• Establishes monitoring of student NCLB groups by FDOE, districts, and schools using FDOE annual reports
