Annual Objectives
• AMAO 1 specifies annual increases in the number or percentage of students making progress in learning English as demonstrated by WESTELL.
• AMAO 2 specifies annual increases in the number or percentage of children attaining English proficiency as demonstrated by WESTELL.
• AMAO 3 specifies annual increases in the number or percentage of children making AYP as determined by the statewide assessment.
May 3, 2006 WV Department of Education aadavis@access.k12.wv.us
Guiding Principles for Development
• The AMAOs must accurately measure the progress LEAs have made in increasing the proficiency of English learners
• The AMAOs should define rigorous yet achievable objectives
• Reliable and valid data should be used in the definition of the AMAOs
• The accountability system should be kept as simple as possible and be understandable to teachers, students, and parents.

Background
• 2004 WESTELL field test administration – 569 students (grades 3-12) participated– Reports included no student ID#
• 2005 WESTELL operational administration– 734 students (grades 3-12) participated– Reports included Student ID#s – K-2 Field tested
May 3, 2006 WV Department of Education aadavis@access.k12.wv.us
Data Limitations
• Limited by small number of matching scores (274 matching scores)
• Current data includes 2004 Field test data
• Does not include K-2 testing
• Does not include 3 data points
• Student records are not linked by Student ID#s (susceptible to human error)

Prerequisite Definitions for setting AMAO 1 targets
1. Determine “cohort”
2. Define expected annual growth
3. Define English Language Proficiency
• Define starting points and
targets (AMAOs) for making progress
