SUBJECT:  
School LAND Trust/TSSA Planning – Helpful Assessment Data


With the School LAND Trust and TSSA Plans due on March 25th, principals have been encouraged to create data-informed goals and supports. The following Tableau dashboards may be useful as principals set those goals:

High Schools:

  • Utah Aspire Plus English, Reading, Math and Science – Overall proficiency and predicted ACT scores are included as well as reporting category data for each subtest.
    • School Growth – Median Growth Percentiles (MGPs) for schools were calculated by the state and recently released. MGPs represent growth calculations for both RISE and Utah Aspire Plus combined.
  • WIDA Access 2.0 – Overall proficiency is included as well as reporting categories and individual domains.
  • 11th Grade ACT – ACT composite as well as subtest scores are included as well as reporting category data.
  • AP Exams – Overall, AP discipline and AP course pass rates are included as well as a distribution of scores.

Other Helpful Data:

  • Graduation – This is a good source to track graduation and dropout rates for your school across student groups.
  • 2021-22 Stakeholder Input Survey – This is a good source for perception data on academic resources and supports from the perspective of faculty, students and parents.
  • 2020-21 USBE School Climate Survey – This is a good source of perception data on school climate and culture.
  • Longitudinal Demographic Data – Based on the Oct. 1 enrollment count, this dashboard will provide assistance with demographic population trends and patterns.
