Rule 3301-28-02 | Gap closing component and measures.
(A) Beginning with the report card released for the 2021-2022 school year, the report card will include a rated gap closing component. The rating for this component will be assigned in accordance with rule 3301-28-10 of the Administrative Code. Schools and districts can earn points toward the component for meeting performance thresholds on each applicable performance measure. The gap closing component will include the following performance measures:
(1) The gifted performance indicator, for which districts and schools may earn five points for meeting the gifted performance index element, five points for meeting the gifted progress element, and five points for meeting the gifted identification and services element;
(2) The chronic absenteeism indicator, for which districts and schools may earn five points;
(3) The English language proficiency indicator established by the department, for which districts and schools may earn five points;
(4) The subgroup graduation targets, for which districts and schools may earn one point for each subgroup enrolled in the district or school that meets the applicable target;
(5) The subgroup achievement targets in mathematics, for which districts and schools may earn one point for each subgroup enrolled in the district or school that meets the applicable target;
(6) The subgroup achievement targets in English language arts, for which districts and schools may earn one point for each subgroup enrolled in the district or school that meets the applicable target;
(7) The subgroup progress targets in mathematics, for which districts and schools may earn one point for each subgroup enrolled in the district or school that meets the applicable target;
(8) The subgroup progress targets in English language arts, for which districts and schools may earn one point for each subgroup enrolled in the district or school that meets the applicable target.
(B) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this rule, subgroup data will not be included in a performance measure in the gap closing component if the subgroup includes data from fewer than fifteen students.
(C) The participation rate requirement for testing is ninety-five per cent. Any school or district with applicable subgroups that does not meet the requirement will receive a point reduction partially in proportion to how close the district or school was to meeting the rate requirement as described in division (D)(3)(a) of section 3302.03 of the Revised Code.
(D) If a measure does not apply to the school or district due to subgroup size or type of school, the points for that measure will not be included in the denominator of possible points.
(E) A community school will have a total possible maximum score of sixty points unless the community school elects to receive the gifted performance indicator in accordance with rule 3301-28-04 of the Administrative Code.
