Dear Friends,The DC Public Charter School Board
(PCSB) is pleased to provide this
school performance report as a way to
share how PCSB evaluates each public
charter school. Although each charter
school is unique, the Performance
Management Framework (PMF) allows
the Board and the public to look at
school performance across common
measures. The elementary, middle, and
high schools are evaluated based on
student progress over time; student
achievement during the previous school
year; gateway measures — including
SAT scores and other outcomes aligned
to college and career readiness that
are necessary for future educational
success; and leading indicators such
as attendance and re-enrollment rates,
which predict student progress and
achievement. Schools that have early
childhood or adult education programs
and schools that have 100 percent
special needs students who did not
take the DC CAS are evaluated through
Accountability Plans based on student
progress, student achievement, and
other measures.
We hope parents and community
members will use these performance
reports to make informed decisions
about their education options and to
get involved with their local school
community. Always feel free to contact
PCSB with questions or comments at
(202) 328-2660, by email at dcpublic@
dcpcsb.org, or follow us on Twitter,
@dcpcsb.
Best wishes,
Brian W. Jones, J.D. Chairman
What is the PCSB School Performance Report?
PCSB produces a detailed annual performance report for
each public charter school it oversees. The report card shows a school’s
performance on the Performance Management Framework (PMF), including
the total percent score and rating in one of three performance tiers.
The report cards also show an Accountability Plan for early childhood or
adult education programs or schools that have 100 percent students with
disabilities. In addition, each report card has a demographic profile of each
school.
How can parents and guardians use the school report card?
Parents can use the school report card to find out how a public charter school is
performing and as a guide to help them select a new school for their children.
Does the PMF replace the state’s Accountability Index and its Annual Measurable Objectives?
No, the results of the reports are not meant to replace the state reporting.
The Office of the State Superintendent of Education (OSSE) will continue
to evaluate school performance. PCSB, as the sole authorizer of DC public
charter schools, has the legal authority to open or close a school and perform
ongoing monitoring. PCSB’s school performance report examines additional
school performance indicators, which gives PCSB a broader perspective on
how each public charter school is doing academically.
Where did PCSB get the data for the school report cards?
The data come from a variety of sources, including state test data from
OSSE, the College Board (PSAT and AP scores), Educational Testing Service
(SAT scores), and PCSB’s internal data systems that track attendance and
enrollment. Accountability plan data submitted by public charter schools were
verified by PCSB staff. Public charter school leaders were given the data for
their schools for fact-checking before the reports were released to the public.

DC Public Charter School Board PCS
Charter schools earn points in four different categories: student progress over time, student
achievement, gateway measures, and leading indicators. Within each category are specific
measures, such as average DC CAS scores, SAT scores, and attendance rate. A school’s score on a
measure is translated into a point value. The school performance report shows both the points the
school earned for that measure and the possible number of points the school could earn. Where
data are not yet available, the points possible and points earned equal zero. The report also shows
the percentage of possible points, which is the points earned divided by the points possible.
Ultimately, the points are summed for the schools to receive an overall score.

MORE ABOut gROWtH OVER tIME
The growth over time measure
allows PCSB to compare schools,
whose students enter at different
levels of performance. It combines
each student’s progress on the DC
CAS from one grade to the next,
resulting in a school-level median
growth percentile (MGP).
The MGP summarizes the student
growth for a school. It tells us how
much the students in a school
are progressing academically
compared to similar students in
other schools. For example, an
MGP score of 62 for a school
means that, overall, the students in
that school showed greater overall
improvement than 62 percent of
similar students in schools across
the district.
What are the academic measures?
For more information on how the metrics are calculated, or updates made to the floors, please see the PMF Guidelines and Technical Guide in the PMF section of the PCSB website, www.dcpcsb.org.
DC Comprehensive Assessment System (DC CAS) is the annual citywide assessment given to students in grades 3–8 and grade 10 in DC public and public charter schools.
The bars show the target range PCSB has set for measuring performance in each category — the lowest attainable score (floor) and the goal. The circle shows the school’s score for that measure and where that score falls in the performance range. In other words, how close the school came to meeting each goal.

DC Public Charter School Board PCS
16 DC Public Charter School Board © 2013
For schools that have early childhood or adult education
programs, and/or students in dedicated special education
programs, PCSB uses an Accountability Plan — which gives
schools the autonomy to set performance targets based on
their unique student populations — to measure and report
academic performance.
Each school’s Accountability Plan is developed in concert
with PCSB staff, school leadership, and the school’s board of
trustees. PCSB must approve each plan. Schools are provided
guidance on the minimum and maximum number of targets
to include in the Accountability Plan as
well as criteria for identifying assessments
and other performance measures.
As such, each school’s Accountability
Plan contains appropriate measures to
evaluate its unique student population
and mission.
As with the PMF, the Accountability Plan
addresses student progress, student
achievement, gateway measures, and
leading and other indicators. Unlike the
PMF, schools and programs using the
Accountability Plan are not tiered for
the 2011–12 school year. Accountability
Plan results are determined by whether
the school met or missed its established
targets through data verification by
PCSB staff.
During the 2012–13 school year, PCSB
will be working with school taskforces
to develop pilot frameworks to measure
school performance in early childhood
and adult education programs. If
approved by the PCSB Board, these
frameworks will replace accountability
plans during the 2013–14 school year.
What is an Accountability Plan?
Talk to your child’s
teachers.
Talk to your school’s
principal.
Volunteer at the school.
Join the school’s parent
organization.
Talk to your school’s
Board of Trustees.
I want to get involved. What should I do next?
Read the school performance report online, www.dcpcsb.
org, or pick up a printed copy at your local library, where
you can also find PCSB’s new parent guide to the reports.
You can also download the new mobile app MyDCcharters at dcpcsb.boopsie.com, which has school performance
data and helps you look for charter schools near you.
Where can I find more information about public charter schools?
2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.

2012 School Performance Report
For schools with students in grades PK–2, adult learners, students preparing for GED, or dedicated special education programs, the DC Public Charter School Board has implemented the Accountability Plan system as part of the Performance Management Framework (PMF) to measure academic performance. Schools and programs using the accountability plan will not be tiered for the 2011–12 school year. Accountability plan results are determined by whether the school met or missed its established targets.
We hope this information will improve transparency of charter school accountability for students across the educational spectrum, and that parents and community members will use this information to make informed decisions about school options.
