Success Ready Students Network

In August 2023, the Missouri State Board of Education unanimously approved the first-ever Innovation Waiver for 20 school districts and one charter school in the state. This groundbreaking decision allows the participating districts, collectively known as the Success-Ready Students Network (SRSN), to implement alternative assessment methods for measuring student achievement instead of relying solely on the end-of-year Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) tests. This initiative emerged from years of research conducted by education practitioners in collaboration with education officials from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE). The three-year pilot program enables these districts to use more frequent, adaptive assessments that provide timely feedback to teachers and students throughout the school year. This innovative approach represents a significant shift in Missouri's educational landscape toward a more personalized, competency-based learning mindset rooted in real-world learning experiences.

What is Competency-Based Learning?

Competency-Based Learning is a rigorous, student-centered approach that empowers learners to progress through an integrated learning journey based on their evidence of mastery, utilizing personalized learning paths and meaningful, authentic experiences to demonstrate transferable skills and knowledge adaptable to real-world contexts.

SRSN Accountability Measures

In the Park Hill School District, the NWEA assessments are utilized to keep students, staff and parents informed about each student’s learning progress. Additionally, NWEA supports teachers in delivering effective instruction. These interim assessments are administered to students in grades 1-8 for English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics. The following data provides insight into our students' progress in these areas.

Growth

Describes the extent to which a student's growth trajectory estimates they are "on track" to demonstrate a foundational understanding of grade level standards by the end of that academic year.

Academic Readiness

This describes a student's level of academic content knowledge at a point in time. 

Academic Readiness and Growth

This quadrant combines the academic readiness measure with the growth measure to describe the extent to which students are growing as expected to demonstrate understanding of grade level standards.

The data below can be filtered by school, subject, student demographic and the previous innovative accountability measures.
