Hollis receives an Exemplary Designation on 2018 School Report Card!
For the 2018 report cards, the state board is using the framework of the federal Every Student Succeeds Act, which replaced the No Child Left Behind law when Congress in late 2015 reauthorized the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Every Student Succeeds establishes a 15-year timeline for achieving four academic goals.
By 2032, at least 90 percent of third-grade students should be reading at or above grade level and 90 percent or more of fifth-grade students should meet or exceed expectations in math. At the high school level, 90 percent or more of ninth-grade students should be on track to graduate with their class and 90 percent or more of students should graduate from high school ready for college and career.
Under the new Illinois reporting system, each school will land in one of four categories ranging from exemplary to low performing based on a list of weighted measures. To receive an exemplary rating, a school must be in the top 10 percent of schools in the state.
• Tier 2: Commendable School: A school that has no underperforming subgroups, a graduation rate greater than 67 percent, and whose performance is not in the top 10 percent of schools statewide. Schools that receive a Tier 2: Commendable School designation may apply to serve in the IL-EMPOWER network of partners.
• Tier 3: Underperforming School: A school in which one or more subgroups is performing at or below the level of the “all students” group in the lowest 5 percent of Title I schools. Schools that receive a Tier 3: Underperforming School designation will receive targeted support.
• Tier 4: Lowest Performing School: A school that is in the lowest-performing 5 percent of Title I schools in Illinois and those high schools that have a graduation rate of 67 percent or less. Schools that receive a Tier: 4 Lowest Performing School designation will receive comprehensive support through IL-EMPOWER.
