The Just 4 Kids site suggests that parents
should review Just4Kids school data to monitor school performance....
"If your child's school has an "opportunity
gap" of 10 or more points, you may wish to develop a customized
learning plan for him or her. You might wish to meet with the teacher,
ensure all homework is completed, and even consider tutoring. You should
be especially concerned when the gap is 25 points or more (below -25
on the summary chart). "

Questions
Lovejoy ISD parents should be asking to address these problems....
"Districts can use this information to:
- Evaluate school success and monitor progress
- Review the district's reading, writing, and mathematics
programs
- Identify campuses that need extra attention
- Monitor the progress of the district and specific
campuses over time
- Use the results of the evaluation to hold schools
accountable
- Set goals and establish initiatives
- Determine academic priorities and set
district-wide goals [Lovejoy's are listed below]
- Allocate funds for training and school improvement
initiatives
- Have schools set goals based on the proficiency
standard, using data on the state's highest achieving schools.
- Have each elementary and middle school principal
communicate the information to teachers, parents, and the public.
- Use data when making personnel decisions "
