The following office has been designated to handle inquiries and complaints regarding the non- discrimination policies of the above-mentioned entities: Director, Office of Human Resources Mississippi Department of Education 359 North West Street Suite 203 Jackson, Mississippi 39201 (601) 359-3511 MDE-Office of Student Assessment Page 2 of 20 May 2017 rd 3 Grade Mississippi Assessment Program English Language Arts Assessment Results Overview Explanation Standard Setting Validation and Cut Score Explanation The 3rd Grade MAP ELA Assessment sub-score will consist exclusively of the operational reading and language items from the 3rd Grade MAP ELA Assessment (reading literature, reading for information, and language). The maximum possible raw score is 48 points, which makes it worth fewer points than the 3rd Grade MAP ELA Assessment because the ELA test also includes writing tasks. The standards validation was necessary because a new assessment administered for the first time in 2015–2016 (i.e., reading and language items from the 3rd Grade MAP ELA Assessment) is being used to meet the requirements of the Mississippi Literacy-Based Promotion Act (SB2347), creating the need for a review of the Performance Level 2 and Performance Level 3 cut scores. A cut score determines which category students’ results apply: • Not Met (i.e., does not meet the readiness requirement) • Met (i.e., meets the readiness requirement) Two passing standards were determined. • Performance Level 2 will be the initial passing cut score for the 3rd Grade MAP ELA assessment. • Performance Level 3 was established for use when the Mississippi Department of Education (MDE) phases in a more rigorous passing standard in 2018-2019. Performance Level Descriptors PASS (Performance Level 2): A student who scores at Performance Level 2 or above meets the requirements of the Literacy Based Promotion Act for the 2016-2017 and 2017-2018 school years for promotion. Students who score within a close range of the cut score, however, still need additional intervention and supports in the following areas: apply phonetic analysis to decode unknown words determine story elements, the main idea, and cause/effect in literary and informational texts respond to literal comprehension questions and summarize short story selections demonstrate an understanding of a variety of informational resources by following written directions and using captions identify characters, settings, plots, and genre (e.g., literary and informational texts) recognize the author’s purpose use context clues to determine word meaning within context identify visual representations (illustrations) in informational texts recognize root words, prefixes, and suffixes MDE-Office of Student Assessment Page 3 of 20 May 2017 FAIL (Performance Level 1): A student who scores at this level or below will need additional interventions and supports. Students who score below the cut score may have a minimal understanding of the following skills: use elements of phonetic analysis to decode unknown words use sequencing, predicting, and retelling to understand literary and informational texts use signs and labels identify characters, settings (e.g., literary and informational texts) identify pictorial representations (illustrations) in informational texts MDE-Office of Student Assessment Page 4 of 20 May 2017 3rd Grade MAP ELA Assessment: Summary Results Table 1. 3rd Grade MAP ELA Assessment State Level Results Aggregate Scale Score Spring 2016 Spring 2017 Analysis Primary Administration Primary Administration Students Meeting LPBA 34,280 Test-Takers 36,057 Test Takers Requirements (87.0%) (92.0%) Students Not Meeting LBPA 5,132 Test-Takers 3,119 Test Takers Requirements (13.0%) (8%) Total Test-Takers 100% 100% Chart 1. 3rd Grade MAP ELA Assessment State Level Comparison 100% 92% 90% 87% 80% 70% 60% 50% 40% 30% 20% 13% 8% 10% 0% Spring 2016 Spring 2017 Met Not Met Table 2. 3rd Grade MAP ELA Assessment Top Ten Highest Performing Districts District Percentage of Students Passing Aberdeen School District >=95% Union County School District >=95% Choctaw County School District >=95% Houston School District >=95% Western Line School District >=95% Union Public School District >=95% Webster County School District >=95% Newton County School District >=95% Ocean Springs School District >=95% Stone County School District >=95% MDE-Office of Student Assessment Page 5 of 20 May 2017 Table 3. 3rd Grade MAP ELA Assessment District/School Pass Fail Rates Did Not Meet Met LBPA LBPA Total Test District/School Requirements Requirements Takers Aberdeen School District >=95% <=5% 112 Aberdeen Elementary School* >=95% <=5% 112 Alcorn School District 93.2% 6.8% 221 Alcorn Central Elementary School >=95% <=5% 80 Biggersville Elementary* 89.7% 10.3% 39 Kossuth Elementary School 92.2% 7.8% 102 Amite Co School District 88.9% 11.1% 81 Amite County Elementary* 88.9% 11.1% 81 Amory School District 91.6% 8.4% 131 East Amory School 91.6% 8.4% 131 Attala Co School District 89.2% 10.8% 93 Greenlee Attendance Center* >=95% <=5% 52 Long Creek Attendance Center* 78.0% 22.0% 41 Baldwyn School District 94.8% 5.2% 58 Baldwyn Elementary School 94.8% 5.2% 58 Bay St Louis Waveland School District 92.1% 7.9% 126 North Bay Elementary School 92.1% 7.9% 126 Benton Co School District 92.5% 7.5% 93 Ashland Elementary School* 88.5% 11.5% 52 Hickory Flat Attendance Center >=95% <=5% 41 Biloxi Public School District 94.6% 5.4% 520 Gorenflo Elementary School 89.7% 10.3% 107 Jeff Davis Elementary School 94.5% 5.5% 145 North Bay Elementary School >=95% <=5% 144 Popps Ferry Elementary School >=95% <=5% 124 Booneville School District 88.8% 11.2% 89 Anderson Elementary School 88.8% 11.2% 89 Brookhaven School District 87.6% 12.4% 258 Brookhaven Elementary School* 87.6% 12.4% 258 Calhoun Co School District 92.9% 7.1% 196 Bruce Elementary School >=95% <=5% 87 Calhoun City Elementary School 89.0% 11.0% 73 Vardaman Elementary School 94.4% 5.6% 36 Canton Public School District 87.7% 12.3% 308 Canton Elementary School* 88.7% 11.3% 159 Jimmie M.

  • 2015 3Rd Grade Reading Assessment Initial Results
    MKAS2 3rd Grade Summative Assessment Results May 2015 3rd Grade Reading Summative Assessment Results Overview and Scale Score (SS) Explanation 3rd Grade Reading Summative Assessment Spring 2015 Results Summary Minimum Passing Score 926 State Scale Score Average 980 Students Scoring at or Above 926 32,219 Students (85.17%) Students Scoring Below 926 5,612 Students (14.83%) 926 Cut Score Explanation The 3rd Reading Summative Assessment scale score of 926 is the minimum score associated with readiness for 4th grade based on the requirements of the Literacy-Based Promotion Act. In accordance with Mississippi Code § 37-177-9, students must be above the “lowest achievement level in reading” to be promoted to 4th grade. This score was derived as a result of a standard setting process which included expert judgments by a panel of educators, parents, and community members from across the state and subsequent review by the Mississippi Department of Education and Mississippi’s National Technical Advisory Committee as well as other nationally known experts. Performance Level Descriptors PASS (926-1200 Scale Score): A student who scores a 926 or above has acquired the minimum reading skills needed to learn 4th grade standards. Students who score within a close range of the cut score, however, still need additional intervention and supports in the following areas: • Answer questions, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answer • Determine the central message, lesson, moral in literary text • Determine the main idea and recount key details in informational text • Identify character traits as they relate to the story • Refer to parts of stories, dramas, and poems using terms such as chapter, scene, and stanza • Locate information relevant to a given topic using key words, headings, bold print, etc.
