by
urging Commissioner MaryEllen Elia and the Board of Regents to include our
Opportunity to Learn Index as the school quality indicator in the new
accountability system. The new federal law called ESSA requires states to
rate schools on academic factors such as test scores and graduation rates,
but also to include a school quality or student success factor of their
choice in the system.
Class Size Matters and NYSAPE have proposed that an Opportunity to Learn
index

be
incorporated into the new accountability system as the school quality
indicator. This would encourage schools to provide a well-rounded
education, including small classes, arts, science, physical education,
sufficient counselors, and more. Why? Because these are the features that
most parents would like to see in their children’s schools, and evidence
shows they lead to better student outcomes.
We also ask that you urge the Regents not to count students who opt out of
the exams as having failed these exams in calculating the school’s academic
rating, as explained here
