General Connection Information-
CEDS elements are shown in bold/italicized font. This metric is part of the Education-to-Workforce (E-W) Indicator Framework, specifically "Outcomes and milestones" which pertain to key outcomes and milestones along the E-W continuum that are strongly associated with individuals achieving economic mobility and security. This metric is a measurement for a key indicator, "8th Grade On Track," and measures whether students in grade 8 are prepared to transition to high school and are on track to graduate on time. Calculating a Response-
Metric: Percentage of students in grade 8 with a GPA of 2.5 or higher, no Ds or Fs in English language arts or math, attendance of 96 percent or higher, and no in- or out-of-school suspensions or explusions. Use the following CEDS elements to determine the school years for which the data will be measured: - School Year = most recent school year,representing July 1 through June 30
Use the following CEDS elements to determine the universe of students: - Pull all unique students which is determined by using a unique Student Identifier where Student Identification System = State
- Where the student:
- is associated with a State Education Agency through the State Agency Identifier where State Agency Identification System = SEA
- is associated with a Local Education Agency through the Local Education Agency Identifier where Local Education Agency Identification System = SEA
- is associated with a K12 school through the School Identifier where School Identification System = SEA
From the universe of students, narrow the list to 8th graders using the following CEDS elements. - Entry Grade Level = 08, and
- Enrollment Entry Date is > July 1 of the school being reported, and
- Enrollment Exit Date is < June 30 of the school year being reported.
Count the number of students that have a grade point average of 2.5 or higher: - Filter records where Grade Point Average Given Session = 2.5 or higher
Count the number of students that have a grade point average of less than 2.5: - Filter records where Grade Point Average Given Session < 2.5
Identify which students have passing grades in Math: - Filter records where School Courses for the Exchange of Data Course Subject Area = 02 (Mathematics) and
- Student Course Section Grade Earned is not null
- Grade Value Qualifier can be A, B, or C
Identify which students who have passing grades in reading/English language arts: - Filter records where School Courses for the Exchange of Data Course Subject Area = 01 (English Language and Literature)
- Student Course Section Grade Earned is not null
- Grade Value Qualifier can be A, B, or C
Identify which students have an attendance record of 96% or higher: - Student Attendance Rate = .96 or higher
- Chronic Student Absenteeism Indicator = No
Identify which students have no records of either in/out of school suspensions or expulsions: - Filter records where Disciplinary Action Taken is not = Expulsion with services
- Filter records where Disciplinary Action Taken is not = Expulsion without services
- Filter records where Disciplinary Action Taken is not = Suspension after school
- Filter records where Disciplinary Action Taken is not = Suspension, in-school
- Filter records where Disciplinary Action Taken is not = Suspension, out of school, greater than 10 consecutive school days
- Filter records where Disciplinary Action Taken is not = Suspension, out of school, separate days cumulating to more than 10 school days
- Filter records where Disciplinary Action Taken is not = Suspension, out-of-school, without services
- Filter records where Disciplinary Action Taken is not = Suspension, out-of-school, with services
Divide the number of students with a GPA of 2.5 or higher by the total number of students. Multiply the results by 100. Divide the number of students with a GPA of less than 2.5 by the total number of students. Multiply results by 100. Disaggregate by Home Language -
