Summary
PreK continues to produce meaningful results and Early Learning focus areas see improvement
Continue to see clear evidence of positive impact of Dallas ISD PreK,
sustained through 3rd grade
2017 BOY ISIP results down across Kindergarten through 2nd grade Learning curve effect due to new PreK curriculum implemented in 2016-17
Increased impact of summer slide compared to last summer
Higher percentage of new students to the district who perform lower
High teacher mobility in K-2
Multiplier effect when new students are placed with new-to-grade teachers
Harllee and partnerships are bright spots as they show significant
increases in Kindergarten results over last year
Looking ahead: assessment changes in the future
Note: New students are defined as students that were not included in the previous year's January PEIMS enrollment data for the prior grade; new-to-grade
teachers are defined as teachers who in the prior year did not teach in the same grade as the current year
Note: No PreK students defined as students that were qualified for PreK and did not attend, but have attended Dallas ISD K – 3. Dallas ISD

curriculum to one that is stronger
in:

people get more comfortable

Teacher mobility

Much lower mobility for PreK than for Kinder to 2nd, but still high
Overall decrease since 2014, SRI sees
spike in 2017
Lower rate than Gen Ed overall, SRI
sees spike, but many fewer classrooms
Note: Reflects teachers who left the grade level they were teaching in the prior year, measured October of each year. Includes combination of teachers who left Dallas ISD entirely and changed grades/schools within Dallas ISD. Movers changed schools . Data reflects those that stayed in the same grade.

Looking Ahead
Early Learning is piloting new assessments to potentially replace or supplement ISIP in the future
Drawbacks of current assessment used:
• Only focus is on parts of Language and
Literacy
• Norm-referenced assessment
– Re-normed every 3 years to always
represent a new bell curve
– Dallas ISD likely not be able to achieve
80% on grade level results due to nature
of scoring & test design
Benefits of new assessments piloted:
• Focuses on a comprehensive set of domains
that align with PreK – 2nd grade curriculum
– Reading
– Writing
– Language & Communications
– Math
– Health & Wellness
– Social-emotional
• Criterion-referenced assessments
– Measurement based on a fixed set of
standards
– Allows for true progress to be determined
Currently using ISIP Reading to assess
students in Early Learning

supplement ISIP Reading in the future
