    Colorado Growth Model

     

    The Colorado Growth Model is a powerful tool to understand the progress of students based on where each individual student begins.


    The Colorado Growth Model enables parents, schools, districts, and the state to understand how individual students are progressing from year to year and provides a common measure to show how much growth is needed for each student to reach state standards.

    2009 Charter School Performance on CSAP: Growth

     

    The League is pleased to announce the release of the public interface for 2008-09 CSAP performance as measured by the Colorado Growth Model. In all, for the last two years, at least 60 percent of charter schools are producing median growth percentiles above the state median (i.e., above the 50th percentile) in math, reading and writing. There are also increases in percentage of charter schools reaching this growth level when compared to the previous year’s data. Mathematics at the high school level and writing and reading growth percentiles at the middle and high school levels revealed higher percentages of charter schools scoring at or above the state median when compared to the past two years of data.
