State Accreditation System • Measures achievement levels in English (reading and writing), mathematics, science and history/social science. • Schools can meet the benchmark in the current year or three-year average. Every Student Succeeds www.acps.k12.va.us www.acps.k12.va.us 4
State Accreditation Results • Fifteen of sixteen schools within ACPS earned state accreditation. • Eleven ACPS schools are Fully Accredited for the 2016- 2017 school year: - Charles Barrett - Matthew Maury - Patrick Henry - Mount Vernon - Cora Kelly - James K. Polk - Lyles-Crouch - Samuel Tucker - Douglas MacArthur - George Washington - George Mason Every Student Succeeds www.acps.k12.va.us www.acps.k12.va.us 5
State Accreditation Results • Four ACPS schools are Partially Accredited for the 2016- 2017 school year : John Adams, William Ramsay, Francis C. Hammond, and T.C. Williams. – John Adams and William Ramsay are Partially Accredited: Warned in the area of Science. – While Francis C. Hammond did not meet the state benchmark in English, it has been designated a Partially Accredited: Improving School for raising English performance by four percentage points. The school is no longer warned in Math, having made a gain of nine percentage points compared to the previous year. – T.C. Williams will be Partially Accredited: Warned for being below state benchmarks in the areas of Math and the Graduation Completion Index. • Despite continued gains, it is anticipated that Jefferson- Houston will remain in Accreditation Denied status.

State Accreditation Highlights • 11 of 16 ACPS schools saw increases in at least two content areas compared to last year. • ACPS increased pass rates in six of eight previously warned areas . • Not only did Patrick Henry earn accreditation for the second straight year (after having been warned in all four content areas three years ago) performance increased in English (+6), Mathematics (+12), and History (+3) . Science performance was six percentage points above the state benchmark. • Lyles-Crouch and Charles Barrett received pass rates above 90% for all content areas.

Transition to the Every Student Succeeds Act Virginia will not report performance against federal Annual • Measurable Objective (AMO) benchmarks for the 2015-2016 assessments under the federal government’s plan to transition from NCLB to ESSA. No accountability statuses (outside of small number of Title I • schools) will be applied for federal results for the coming year (based on SY 15-16 results) because of the upcoming transition to ESSA. ESSA is scheduled for full implementation beginning with the 2017- • 2018 school year. More detailed information regarding Virginia’s transition to ESSA will • be received from the VDOE during the 2016-2017 school year. Every Student Succeeds www.acps.k12.va.us www.acps.k12.va.us 10
