State Percentages for 2015 Ohio School Report Card

At its September 2015 meeting, the State Board of Education reviewed the necessary percent of students scoring proficient or higher on each state test for the Indicators Met measure on the 2015 Ohio School Report Card.

The board decided to maintain the 80 percent for tests established before the 2014-2015 school year. These tests include the Ohio Achievement Assessment in third grade reading and the Ohio Graduation Tests for students who took them as 10th graders in the 2014-2015 school year. The board also maintained 85 percent for students who were in 11 grade during the 2014-2015 school year and took one or more OGT's.

Acknowledging that 2014-2015 was the first year of new tests in English language arts, mathematics, science and social studies, the State Board's decision is to use the state percentage of students scoring proficient or higher for each new test.
