Targeted School Improvement

All schools regardless of Title I status are eligible for TSI-AT identification. Schools are identified as TSI-AT when:

• The school has one or more subgroup(s) where the subgroup performance grade score is below the highest identified CSI school’s All Students group during the identification year
• The school is on the TSI-CU list for the subgroup(s) for the previous year. Note: The 2018–19 has only one of the criteria for identification. The criteria is, one or more subgroup(s) lower than the highest CSI school’s performance. 

The next identification in 2021–22 will require both criteria to be met.

Schools can exit this status every three years. Schools exit this identification during the exit year when the subgroup(s) causing the school to be identified as TSI-AT meet one of the following: 

• Obtain an index score of 1.0 or higher on a three-year subgroup growth score in the EVAAS system during the exit year for the identified subgroup(s)

     or

•  Meet the measure of interim progress for the identified subgroup(s) during the exit year in reading and mathematics.
