(A) Not later than one year after the adoption of rules under division (D) of section 3301.0712 of the Revised Code and at least every sixth year thereafter, upon recommendations of the superintendent of public instruction, the state board of education shall establish all of the following:

Terms Used In Ohio Code 3302.02

  • Performance index score: means the average of the totals derived from calculations, for each subject area, of the weighted proportion of untested students and students scoring at each level of skill described in division (A)(2) of section 3301. See Ohio Code 3302.01
  • state: means the state of Ohio. See Ohio Code 1.59

(1) A set of performance indicators that considered as a unit will be used as one of the performance categories for the report cards required by section 3302.03 of the Revised Code. In establishing these indicators, the superintendent shall consider inclusion of student performance on assessments prescribed under section 3301.0710 or 3301.0712 of the Revised Code, rates of student improvement on such assessments, the breadth of coursework available within the district, and other indicators of student success.

Beginning with the report card issued under section 3302.03 of the Revised Code for the 2021-2022 school year, the performance indicators prescribed under division (A)(1) of this section regarding student performance on state assessments shall not require a school district or building to attain a proficiency percentage to meet an indicator. Rather, the performance indicators only shall report proficiency percentages, trends, and comparisons.

(2) A performance indicator that reflects the level of identification and services provided to, and the performance of, students identified as gifted under Chapter 3324 of the Revised Code. The indicator shall be prescribed by rules adopted under Chapter 119 of the Revised Code by the state board. The state board shall consult with the gifted advisory council regarding all rules adopted under this section. Consultation with the state gifted advisory council shall occur not less than every three years.

The gifted performance indicator shall include:

(a) The performance of students on state assessments, as measured by a performance index score, disaggregated for students identified as gifted;

(b) Value-added growth measure under section 3302.021 of the Revised Code, disaggregated for students identified as gifted;

(c) The level of identification as measured by the percentage of students in each grade level identified as gifted and disaggregated by traditionally underrepresented and economically disadvantaged students;

(d) The level of services provided to students as measured by the percentage of students provided services in each grade level and disaggregated by traditionally underrepresented and economically disadvantaged students.

(3) A performance indicator that measures chronic absenteeism, as determined by the department of education, in a school district or school building.

Beginning with the report card issued under section 3302.03 of the Revised Code for the 2021-2022 school year, the performance indicators prescribed in divisions (A)(2) and (3) of this section shall not be part of the performance indicator unit under division (A)(1) of this section.

(B) For the 2013-2014 school year, except as otherwise provided in this section, for any indicator based on the percentage of students attaining a proficient score on the assessments prescribed by divisions (A) and (B)(1) of section 3301.0710 of the Revised Code, a school district or building shall be considered to have met the indicator if at least eighty per cent of the tested students attain a score of proficient or higher on the assessment. A school district or building shall be considered to have met the indicator for the assessments prescribed by division (B)(1) of section 3301.0710 of the Revised Code and only as administered to eleventh grade students, if at least eighty-five per cent of the tested students attain a score of proficient or higher on the assessment.

The state board shall adopt rules, under Chapter 119 of the Revised Code, to establish proficiency percentages to meet each indicator that is based on a state assessment, prescribed under section 3301.0710 or 3301.0712 of the Revised Code, for the 2014-2015, 2015-2016, 2016-2017, 2017-2018, 2018-2019, 2019-2020, and 2020-2021 school years by the following dates:

(1) Not later than December 31, 2015, for the 2014-2015 school year;

(2) Not later than July 1, 2016, for the 2015-2016 school year;

(3) Not later than July 1, 2017, for the 2016-2017, 2017-2018, 2018-2019, 2019-2020, and 2020-2021 school years.
