For the 2024/2025
The Changes from DPI: DPI announced they would be changing the terminology of student performance categories to as follows:
- “Below Basic” will now change to “Developing.”
- “Basic” will now change to “Approaching.”
- “Proficient” will now change to “Meeting.”
- “Advanced” will remain the same.
These labels are not designed to spare the feelings of the students who are not performing as expected, as DPI has alluded. Rather, they intend to prevent families from recognizing the ineptitude of the schools that fail to help students reach the standards required for the workforce or college.
