Differentiated Accountability 2016-2017

In 2016-2017 we will use 3 of the 5 Conceptual Areas with all districts, nonpublic schools, and AEAs

Assessment/DBDM, Universal Instruction, and Intensification

Assessment/DBDM and Universal Instruction will be used immediately.

Intensification will be used statewide, but identification of districts, schools, and AEAs will be delayed until later in the fall.

Differentiated Accountability 2016-2017

We believe we can manage a maximum of 5% of Iowa school districts (approx 16-18 school districts) in intensive support, which should also align us with ESSA’s expectation for intensive support.
