ABSTRACT This report is part of a two-volume publication that outlines the Department of Defense Education Activity (DoDEA) 5-year plan to transform education in DoD schools. It is based on the vision that the DoDEA will be a learner-centered organization, unbound by traditional school concepts of time, location, and age requirements, and will be recognized for its ability to provide students with the knowledge and high-level skills required for success. The accountability profiles presented here provide information on the school, district, area, and system levels. The report is divided into two documents. The first document includes the system, area, district, and school profiles for the Department of Defense's overseas schools, whereas the second document focuses on the department's domestic schools. The areas, districts, and schools are organized alphabetically within each larger organizational group. Each profile includes student-enrollment data, the mobility rate, the military services and civilian groups served by DoDEA schools, professional-educator demographics, and the percentage of teachers who have completed various levels of education. Each profile also includes principals' and superintendents' assessments, listing the highlights of their programs, important benchmarks for growth, parents' perceptions of the schools, and each school's degree of parent participation.

A vision statement is generally written in such general language that it can rarely do more than inspire. Moving from inspiration and aspiration to achievement requires a detailed plan. The DoDEA Community Strategic Plan is just that.It details the goals and benchmarks that are milestones on the way to becoming the school system described in the DoDEA vision statement. Ten interdependent education goals were identified as requirements for achieving the DoDEA vision. A number of benchmarks were developed to define discrete, measurable performance criteria for each of the goals. Every year specific goals and benchmarks will be selected as priorities.

School year 1995-1996 was a pivotal time for everyone associated with the Department of Defense Education Activity. Organizational changes eliminated layers of administration, consolidated operations, and increased autonomy at the local level. Necessary changes were initiated in the teaching and learning processes, and all sectors of the community were given a greater voice in the decision-making process. The Community Strategic Plan established additional mechanisms facilitating the shared interest, involvement and responsibility for education that will make the DoDEA vision a reality and the future a success for all students.

This two volume publication offers a glimpse of DoDEA during the preliminary phase of its projected five year transformation process. The 1995-1996 student performance data included in both the Accountability Report and the Accountability Profiles create the baseline to which we will compare all future data.I thank you for your interest in and support of the students and programs in our schools, and invite you to share in our vision for DoDEA's future.

By the year 2000, DoDEA will be a learner-centered organization, Unbound by traditional school concepts of time, location and age requirements, And recognized for its ability to provide students with the knowledge and high level skills required for success in a global community. Introduction

The DoDEA Community Strategic Plan outlines the ten goals that are the vehicle for moving DoDEA toward the vision of "an organization without boundaries, united in purpose with the community, and with the latest technology to empower students." The DoDEA Community Strategic Plan also "established benchmarks, or measurable commitments, for each of the ten goals." One of the DoDEA Headquarters' priority benchmarks (9.1) is to "By the year 2000...establish and evaluate a systemwide accountability process for the monitoring of the Strategic Plan, school improvement process, and student progress." A second DoDEA Headquarters' priority benchmark (10.7) is to "By the year 2000... create aneffective communication system to share information among all of the DoDEA constituencies as measured by formal and informal surveys, random sampling, and interviews." This report is one step DoDEA has taken toward achieving these goals and benchmarks.

This volume includes Accountability Profiles that present significant information at the school, district, area, and system levels. It presents a rich resource for parents, students, teachers, and the community to examine achievement in the DoDEA school improvement process. The information presented in this report were selected because they:

are directly related to the systemwide goals can be influenced by school initiatives are important for understanding the local context are useful in making educational decisions are essential for school improvement and student growth can be evaluated against a meaningful standard

How the Accountability Profiles are organized

The Accountability Profiles report is organized into two documents. The first document includes the system, area, district, and school profiles for the Department of Defense Dependents Schools (DoDDS), the overseas schools. The second document includes the system, district, and school profiles for the Department of Defense Domestic Dependents Elementary and Secondary Schools (DDESS), the domestic schools. The areas, districts, and schools are organized alphabetically within each larger organizational group. How to use this report

This report includes detailed information for both the domestic (DDESS) and overseas (DoDDS) schools. As DDESS and DoDDS are authorized under differentlegislation and, traditionally, have been administered somewhat independently, the data reported for the domestic and overseas schools, while generally comparable, are in some casesdifferent. In particular, there are five areas where the data are not comparable.

1. The Priority Benchmarks established by the DoDEA CommunityStrategic Plan for DDESS and DoDDS are different although they share Benchmark 8.1.

2. The Special Programs offered in DoDDS and DDESS are somewhat different.For example, the Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) and Reading Recovery programs are only employed in DoDDS.

3.Parent Report Card data are presented for DoDDS while Parent Participationdata are presented for DDESS.

4. The standardized tests and the grade levels at which they are administered are different. In DoDDS, all students in grades 3, 7, and 11 took the Comprehensive Tests of Basic Skills, Fourth Edition (CTBS/4) in 1995-96 while five different tests were administered in DDESS, varying largely by the statein which they are located. The grade levels tested also vary somewhat across the DDESS districts.

5. A systemwide Writing Assessment is administered to all DoDDS students in grades5, 8, and 10. While some DDESS schools administer writing assessments, becausethere is currently little consistency across schools and districts, the 1995-96 profiles do not include writing assessment results for DDESS.

Each profile includes the following sections: School, District, Area (DoDDS only), or System Characteristics Principal's, Superintendent's, or Director's Highlights 1995-96 Benchmark Priorities Parent Report Card (DoDDS) or Parent Participation (DDESS) Data Standardized Test Results

1 4: 2 School, District, Area, or System Characteristics

Each profile includes the following information:

Student enrollment data are presented graphically by gender (DoDDS only) and ethnic groups and are provided in a table by grade levels.

Special programs presents a summary of common programs available in DoDDS and DDESS. This summary includes the grade levels served, the number of students enrolled in the programs, and the percent of the total school enrollment. The special programs include special education, talented and gifted (TAG), English as a second language (ESL), and Advanced Placement courses. For DoDDS, the special programs also include Reading Recovery and AVID.

Mobility Rate is a measure of how often students move in and out of a school during the school year. It is reported as the percentage of students who enter or withdraw from a school during the year relative to the enrollment. (In DoDEA schools, domestic and overseas, mobility rates are generally considerably higher than most stateside schools due to the mobility of the military community we serve.)

Sponsor's Affiliation provides a summary of the military services and civilian groups served by DoDEA schools. Each child's sponsor is included in this percentage. For example, if a sponsor has two children in a school, both children are included in the percentage for their school.

Professional Staffing presents a graphical summary of the number of professional educators by gender (DoDDS only) and ethnic groups. Professional staff include teachers, administrators, librarians, guidance counselors, school psychologists, nurses, and other professional educators.

School Staff summarizes the number of professional educators who serve a school, district, area, or system. The data are summarized for four categories: administrators, classroom teachers, special education teachers, and other professionals. The "other" category includes counselors, nurses, psychologists, librarians, and other support professionals. The metric reported is FTE or full time equivalents. Full time equivalents can be thought of as 40 hour per week units. For example, if a school has 20 forty-hour per week teachers and 4 twenty-hour per week teachers, they have 22 FTE or 22 full time equivalent teachers.

Teacher Education reports the percentage of teachers who have completed various levels of undergraduate or graduate education. BA/BS indicates that a teacher has completed their Bachelors of Arts or Science degree. MA/MS represents a Master's degree and a Doctorate indicates a Ph.D. or Ed.D. degree.

3 Principal's, Superintendent's, or Director's Highlights

This section is designed to provide each Principal and Superintendent, and theDoDEA Director an opportunity to highlight special accomplishments and unique programsin theft' school, district, area, or systemwide.

Priority Benchmarks

In this section of the profiles the school, district, area, or system has theopportunity to briefly report on their progress on the 1995-96 Priority Benchmarks identified in the DoDEA Community Strategic Plan. With the exception of benchmark 8.1, different benchmarks have been identified as priorities for DoDDS and DDESS.

Parent Report Card (DoDDS)

The DoDEA Overseas Schools conduct a biennial survey to assess parents' perceptionsof the strengths and weaknesses of the overseas school system. The survey questionsask parents to "grade" their school in a manner analogous to the grades mostsecondary school children receive on their report cards: A-F. The profile reports the percentagesof parents who graded their school an A/B, C, or D/F for overall qualityin the areas of Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, Social Studies, and School Communications.

Parent Participation (DDESS)

DDESS reports parent participation in their schools through the Parent Teacher Association/Parent Teacher Organization (PTA/PTO) and the Parent Volunteer Programs. The chart summarizes the number of parents participating in each program.

4 Standardized Test Results

This section provides a summary of standardized test results including norm-referenced tests, the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT), and the DoDDS writing assessment.

Norm-Referenced Test results are reported for Reading, Language, Social Studies, Mathematics and Science. This section includes school, district, system, and national median percentile scores. Percentile scores indicate how a student's score compares to students' scores nationally. If a student scores at the 65th percentile, for example, he/she scored higher than approximately 65 percent of the national standardization sample. Percentile scores range from 1-99 and the national median is 50. Asterisks (**) indicate either that the school does not include students at that grade level or that fewer than 10 students were tested. In cases where fewer than 10 students were tested, valid inferences could not be made and the data are not presented.

For DoDDS, this section includes the results on the Comprehensive Tests of Basic Skills (CTBS) for grades 3, 7, and 11. To assess progress toward Benchmark 3.1 for Reading, Language, and Social Studies, the Percent of Students Scoring in Each (percentile) Quarter for 1994-1996 are reported in addition to the median percentiles for each subject and grade. The quarters are percentile ranges 1-25, 26-50, 51-75, and 76-99. (Nationally, 25 percent of the students score in each quarter; however, in DoDDS proportionally fewer students score in the lower two quarters and more than 25 percent score in each of the upper two quarters.) The quarters are presented in bar graphs. The quarters are ordered (stacked) from low/bottom (1-25) to high/top (76- 99). To assess progress toward Benchmark 4.2 for Mathematics and Science, 1995 and 1996 median percentiles and percentile gaps are reported across ethnic groups in addition to the overall median percentiles for each subject and grade. Achievement gaps are the differences between the median percentile scores for each ethnic group and the 1994 DoDDS systemwide (baseline) medians.

For DDESS, this section includes results on norm-referenced standardized tests for grades 2, 4, 6. (For the Ft. Campbell schools, norm-referenced standardized test results are presented for grades 3, 6, and 10.) To assess progress toward Benchmarks 3.1 and 4.3 for Reading, Language, Social Studies, Mathematics, and Science the Percent of Students Scoring in Each (percentile) Quarter in 1996 are reported in addition to the median percentiles for each subject and grade. The quarters are percentile ranges 1-25, 26-50, 51-75, and 76-99. The quarters are presented in bar graphs. The quarters are ordered (stacked) from low/bottom (1-25) to high/top (76- 99). (Nationally, 25 percent of the students score in each quarter; however, in DDESS proportionally fewer students score in the lower two quarters and more than 25 percent score in each of the upper two quarters.) In the future, data from subsequent years will be included in this report. Scholastic Assessment Tests (SAT) are taken by the majority of high school seniors who plan to go on to college. This table presents the percentage of the high school seniors who took the test, % Participating, and mean Verbal and Mathematics scores. The participation rate is an important factor when interpreting the mean scores because it determines who is included in the sample. The participation rates for both DoDDS and DDESS are higher than the national percentages.

For DoDDS, the SAT data are reported for the schools, districts, system, and nation. Results are reported for the two most current years available, 1994 and 1995. For DDESS, the SAT data are reported for the districts, system, and nation. Results are reported for the two most current years available, 1994 and 1995.

Writing Assessments (DoDDS) are administered each spring to all DoDDS students in grades 5, 8, and 10. The report summarizes the results for the last three years. The number of students assessed, the mean scale scores by grade level and the percentage of students at each level of performance are presented. Four levels of performance are reported: Distinguished, Proficient, Apprentice, and Novice/Undeveloped. The percentages of Unscorable papers (e.g., illegible and off topic) are also reported.

While some DDESS schools administer writing assessments, because there is currently little consistency across schools and districts, the 1995-96 profiles do not include writing assessment results for DDESS.
