1 Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) Stakeholder Discussion July 20, 2016

2 Meeting Overview Large Group 30 minutes Stakeholder Engagement Priorities MDE has heard so far ESSA legislation Process and Timeline Participant Breakout Discussion 90 minutes

3 ESSA Stakeholder Engagement If Minnesota Then Resulting In Creates opportunities for diverse stakeholders to help shape the ESSA plan Uses stakeholder input to inform the ESSA plan, and tells them how input was used Creates systems and opportunities to keep them engaged through implementation Stakeholders will feel a sense of ownership in the ESSA plan and are more likely to support it Previously underengaged groups will feel more connected to the state s education system The ESSA plan will reflect the best thinking of diverse groups Minnesota producing an ESSA plan that strengthens our efforts to build a world-class education system where all children succeed

4 Upcoming Opportunities to Share and Stay Informed Ongoing focus groups within communities Community-hosted conversations Surveys to parents ESSA video updates ESSA e-newsletter Twitter town halls Regional meetings held in fall and winter Meetings will be held in locations and at times that are varied and convenient.

5 Regional Meetings This Fall Save the date for regional town hall listening sessions: October 5: Duluth October 6: Bemidji October 13: Marshall October 14: Rochester October 26: St. Cloud November 3: Burnsville Additional meetings TBD

6 Equity Expectations Under ESSA 1. Eliminating disparities and creating opportunities for better student outcomes. 2. Academic standards that align with entrance requirements for postsecondary. 3. Annual statewide assessments. 4. Public data reporting on outcomes and opportunities for all groups of students.

7 Equity Expectations Under ESSA 5. School accountability systems that include assessment results, graduation rates and measure(s) of school quality or student success. 6. State strategies to intervene and support lowperforming schools. 7. Attention to addressing inequities in access to effective, in-field and experienced teachers.

8 Emerging Themes It is critical to ensure the voices of diverse stakeholders are represented and listened to. Equity needs to be the foundation of the state plan. School climate or student health measures should be considered for inclusion in the accountability system. It is important that test scores and other data be used meaningfully and appropriately.

9 More Emerging Themes Information needs to be accessible and easy to understand. Minnesota has built an improved system of support in recent years. Defining a vision around well-rounded education is important.

10 Expectations of ESSA

11 ESSA State Plan Development Timeline When? Spring 2016 Summer 2016 Summer-Fall 2016 Fall-Winter 2016 January 2017 March 2017 What? Informational topic meetings to share the and begin to collect feedback. Additional feedback is gathered from stakeholder groups to inform focus areas. Stakeholders convene in certain topic make recommendations. Regional listening sessions. law areas to Draft plan made available for public comment. Final plan submitted Education. to U.S. Department of

12 ESSA Accountability Systems ESSA requires that states identify schools for improvement based on five components: Academic achievement on state tests. Academic growth over time. Graduation rates. Progress toward English language proficiency. At least one indicator of school quality or student success. Examples in the law include student engagement, college and career readiness, school climate and safety, access to and completion of advanced coursework.

13 ESSA Accountability Systems The first four academic indicators must be assigned much greater weight than the indicators of school quality or student success. All of the indicators need to include the performance of each student group, including students from major racial and ethnic groups, children with disabilities, English learners and low-income students.

14 ESSA Accountability Systems Using the measures of the accountability system, ESSA requires that states identify schools for improvement if they are: In the lowest 5% of Title I schools. High schools with graduation rates below 67%. Particularly low-performing in any student group.

15 Participant Breakout Sessions 1. Given ESSA requirements, what else do you think needs to be reflected in a comprehensive accountability system? 2. What other components are part of a highquality education that may not be included in an accountability system but may still be reported to the public? 3. What other thoughts do you have about ESSA that are important for Minnesota to consider and discuss with stakeholders during the state plan development process?
