The 2024-25 school year is off to a great start throughout the Little Chute Area School District. We are proud of how staff, parents, and students collaboratively work together to ensure student learning. As a learning community, we are continually looking to improve the Little Chute Area School District. One source we use to reflect on our strengths and opportunities for growth is the State School Report Card.
The Department of Public Instruction (DPI) is required by state statute (Wis. Stat. 115.385) to generate a school report card and district report card for every publicly funded school and district in the state. The report cards are intended to help schools and districts use performance data to celebrate successes and improve their efforts to prepare students for their futures. These public report cards can be found online here.
The current school report card is primarily based on last year’s performance during the 2023-24 school year.
At the foundation of the report cards are four priority areas that have slightly changed from past years. Schools and districts receive a score for each priority area:
Achievement: Proficiency in English language arts (ELA) and mathematics on the annual state assessments.
Assessments underwent a necessary update in 2023-24 – including updates in performance level cut scores – to align with recent updates in Wisconsin Academic Standards in ELA and mathematics. This process takes place whenever there are updates to academic standards. This affected the cut scores which may have impacted the overall score.
Growth: Year-to-year progress in ELA and math achievement.
Target Group Outcomes: Outcomes for students with the lowest test scores: the Target Group.
On-Track to Graduation: Reliable predictors of how successfully students are progressing toward completing their K-12 education.
The priority area scores are aggregated into an overall accountability score, from 0 to 100. It is important to note that the 0 to 100 accountability score is not a “percent correct” measurement. Based on its score, a school or district receives one of five rating categories, from Fails to Meet Expectations to Significantly Exceeds Expectations, as well as corresponding one to five stars.
These results help illuminate some of our successes and help pinpoint areas of focus in the Little Chute Area School District. But as DPI stresses, these report cards are just one source of information about our school.
Little Chute Area School District would like to inform you of the overall scores for each school and our district:
If there are any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact the school at 920-788-7605. I look forward to working with you to make 2024-25 a successful school year for your students!
