CT Students Improve Performance on 2010 CMT; Post Gains over

Benchmark Year (2006) Across Grades 3-8 in All Content Areas

Except Writing at Grade 3; Largest Gains Seen in Grades 6, 7 and 8

(HARTFORD, CT) Results of the annual, state-administered Connecticut Mastery Test (CMT) in Grades 3-8 show a trend of improving student performance in reading, writing and mathematics since the new

generation test was introduced in 2006. While students scores were both up and down from 2009 to 2010,

depending on the grade and discipline, scores were generally improved, particularly in Grades 6, 7 and 8.

The CMT assesses approximately 250,000 students on their application of skills and knowledge in the core

academic content areas of mathematics, reading and writing in Grades 3 through 8, and in science in Grades

5 and 8. This year marked the fifth administration of the Fourth Generation CMT, which was first

administered in March 2006. The March 2006 administration serves as a baseline for examining changes in

student performance over the course of the Fourth Generation.

This years test results show that from 2006 to 2010, there is a positive trend of improved student

achievement across all six grades and academic disciplines, which is encouraging, said Commissioner Mark K. McQuillan in announcing this years statewide CMT scores. Our students are performing

better, but challenges remain. The Commissioner recognized the efforts of educators to raise student

performance levels and encouraged continued efforts to reach all students to help them succeed.

For the CMT, five levels of student performance are reported: Below Basic, Basic, Proficient, Goal and

Advanced. The Proficient level is used to identify schools and districts that are making Adequate Yearly

Progress (AYP) under the federal No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act. The Goal level is more challenging

than the Proficient level and is the state target for student performance. In September, parents will receive

CMT score reports that provide individual student performance data for their children. Table 1 compares the

2010 CMT results with those from the previous four years of Generation 4 CMT.

Compared with the results from the first administration of the Generation 4 CMT in 2006, Connecticuts

elementary and middle school students improved their performance at the Goal level in all content areas and

at all grade levels tested, except for Grade 3 Writing in 2010. Performance at the Proficient level also

showed marked gains over the base year at all grade levels and in all subject areas, except for writing in

Grades 3, 7 and 8, which dropped by approximately 1 percentage point from the first administration of

Generation 4. Grades 6 and 7 posted the greatest gains over the base year at the Goal level in both readingand mathematics, with an increase of 12.4 percentage points in mathematics and 11.3 percentage points for

reading in Grade 6, and an increase of 11.8 percentage points in mathematics and 10.8 percentage points for

reading in Grade 7.

Compared with the 2009 administration, most content areas were up across all grades at both the Proficient

and Goal levels with the following exceptions: reading at Grades 4 and 5, both at the Proficient and Goal

levels, and writing in Grades 3, 7 and 8 at both the Proficient and Goal levels. Grade 4 increased at the

Proficient level, but dropped by less than 1 percentage point at the Goal level. Grade 3 mathematics

remained unchanged at the Proficient level (there was less than a .5 percent change over last year). In


27/48

science for Grades 5 and 8, results increased at the Goal level, but decreased by less than 1 percentage point

at the Proficient level.

I am pleased to see improvements in the performance of students across the board, including somewhat

larger gains by minority and economically disadvantaged students, which helps to close Connecticuts

large achievement gaps. While this shows positive movement, we should all be concerned with the 30

percentage point gaps in performance among racial and economic groups that persist. We need to do

more to help all children succeed,McQuillan said.

CMT Results by Content AreaThe following summarizes CMT performance for mathematics, reading, writing and science (Grades 5 and

8), focusing on the trends in the percentages of students scoring at or above the Goal and Proficient levels

across grades.

Mathematics

Across the grades, the CMT mathematics tests assess skills, concepts and applications in four broad areas of

mathematics: Numerical and Proportional Reasoning; Algebraic Reasoning; Patterns and Functions;

Geometry and Measurement; and Working with Data: Probability and Statistics.

The score progressions for the Goal and Proficient levels of performance for mathematics within each grade

trended upward across all five years of the generation, with the 2010 percentages exceeding 2009 results by

2 to 3 percentage points. By 2010, at least 63 percent of the students in each grade scored at or above theGoal level on the mathematics portion of the CMT, while at least 84 percent of the students met or exceeded

the Proficient standard.

Reading

For each grade assessed, the CMT reading tests contain two components: Reading Comprehension and the

Degrees of Reading Power

(DRP). Reading Comprehension assesses how well students understand the

content of literary and informational passages, interpret meaning, make connections to the world, and

elaborate on the text. The DRP is a national norm-referenced test that identifies the level of text that students

are able to read.

The variability in the percentage of students scoring at or above the Goal level across the grades in reading

continues to be substantial, with approximately 57 percent of the Grade 3 students meeting Goal comparedwith about 78 percent in Grade 7. At the Proficient level in reading, the range was 72 percent in Grade 3 to

86 percent in Grade 6. The overall trends between 2006 and 2010 are positive at most grades and levels, withthe 2010 cohort of students exceeding previous cohorts in the percentage of students scoring at or above

Goal and at or above Proficient, except for Grades 4 and 5.

Writing

The CMT writing tests include the Direct Assessment of Writing and Editing & Revising at each grade. The

Direct Assessment of Writing requires students to write up to a three-page first draft. Students respond to a

prompt that was designed to elicit a narrative (Grades 3 and 4), expository (Grades 5 and 6), or persuasive

(Grades 7 and 8) response. The Editing questions assess students understanding of the conventions of the

English language, including capitalization, punctuation and usage of language and spelling, while Revising

questions assess students ability to identify errors in organization, syntax and word choice.

In 2010, across Grades 3 through 8, percentages ranged from a low of 58 percent of the students at or above

the Goal level and 80 percent of students at the Proficient level in Grade 3, to 68 percent of the students at or

above Goal and 87 percent of the students at the Proficient level in Grade 5. Student performance was

somewhat inconsistent this year with three grades (4, 5 and 6) continuing the upward trend over the life of

the generation and three grades (3, 7 and 8) showing a slight downturn.

Science

This was the third year that Connecticut elementary and middle school students were assessed in science.

Grade 5 students took a cumulative elementary science CMT that assessed concepts and skills taught

throughout the elementary grades. Students in Grade 8 were assessed on science concepts and skills taught in

Grades 6 through 8. Both assessments are based on state expectations for science learning described in the

2004 Core Science Curriculum Framework. Students are expected to understand and explain science

concepts and how they relate to the real world in the areas of earth, physical and life science. In addition,

students must be able to explain how scientific inquiry is conducted. Science performance tasks developed

by the Connecticut State Department of Education for teachers use during the school year form the basis for

some of the CMT questions that assess students understanding of scientific inquiry.

In 2010, approximately 60 percent of the Grade 5 students and 63 percent of the students in Grade 8 scored

at or above the Goal level on the science portion of the CMT, and about 83 percent of the Grade 5 studentsand 76 percent of the Grade 8 students scored at the Proficient level. Scores at the Goal level had increased

for both grades from the 2009 administration, while scores at the Proficient level were down slightly for both

grades over last years administration.

Student Subgroup Analysis

Eligibility for Free/Reduced-Priced Meal Subgroup

Appendix A provides comparisons of CMT performance data for Grades 3-8 in the areas of mathematics,

reading, writing and science by: gender, racial/ethnic subgroups, eligibility for free or reduced-priced meals

(poverty status), special education (SPED) status and English language learner (ELL) status.

While the 2010 CMT results demonstrated improvement over the base year for all students in all contentareas except writing, students who were eligible to receive free/reduced-priced meals posted much higher

gains than their peers who pay full price, thus indicating that the achievement gap based upon economic need

or poverty is narrowing. Eligibility for free/reduced-priced meals is used as a proxy for a familys socio-

economic status or level of economic need. Students who were economically disadvantaged posted higher

average gains across all grades, performance levels and content areas except for writing at the Goal level.

Average gains across Grades 3-8 ranged from a 1 percent gain in writing at the Proficient level to a 7 percent

gain at the Proficient level in mathematics. See Appendix A for more specific information about these gains.

Some of the trends in reading and mathematics for students eligible for free/reduced-priced meals are

outlined in the following figures. The trend of positive change from the beginning of Generation 4 is

apparent. For example, Figure 1 shows that in Grade 5 mathematics, there is a 12.6 percentage point increase

for students who are eligible for free/reduced-priced meal scoring at/above Proficient from 2006. Full-pricedmeal students gained only about 6 percentage points at the Proficient level during that same time frame.

Figure 2 illustrates that free/reduced priced meal students also had similar gains in Grade 8 mathematics,where they demonstrated larger gains (14.7 percentage points) than students who were full-priced lunch

students (6.3 percentage points).

Figures 3 and 4 compare the percentages, from 2006 to 2010, of Grade 5 and 8 students scoring at/above

Proficient in reading. The percentage of Grade 5 students eligible for free/reduced-priced meals increased by

5.1 percentage points since 2006, compared to an increase of 3.9 percentage points for students not eligible

for free/reduced-priced meals. For Grade 8, the increases are even more dramatic. Figure 4 shows an

increase of 11.4 percentage points for students eligible for free/reduced-priced meals, compared to 5.3

percentage points for their noneligible counterparts.

Special Education Subgroup

About 12 percent of the total student population receives special education services. These students either

take the standard grade-level CMT test (with or without accommodations), the Skills Checklist for

significantly, cognitively disabled special education students, or the CMT Modified Assessment System

(MAS). The CMT MAS, which was administered for the first time this year, is an alternate assessment

designed to be more appropriate for those special education students whose disability would preclude them

from achieving grade-level proficiency on the standard CMT. The students Individualized EducationProgram (IEP) team determines if a student meets the eligibility criteria to be assessed with the CMT MAS

in mathematics and/or reading.

Some of the trends in reading and writing for special education students who took the standard test are

outlined in the following figures. The general trend of positive growth from the beginning of this generation

is apparent.It is important to note that students who took the MAS in mathematics and/or reading are not

included in the summary calculations for the standard test for 2009 and 2010. MAS scores are reported

separately.

Some of the trends in reading and mathematics for students eligible for special education are outlined in the

following charts. The trend of positive growth from the beginning of Generation 4 is apparent. For example,

in Grade 5 mathematics, there is a much larger percentage of special education students scoring at/aboveProficient. There are more than 22.9 percent of Grade 5 special education students scoring at/above

Proficient in 2010 when compared to the percentage in 2006. In 2010, 58.8 percent of the special education

students in Grade 8 reading scored at/above Proficient compared to 37.8 percent of special education

students in Grade 8 reading in 2006.

(Students who took CMT MAS or the Checklist are not included in average district/statewide scores for 2009 and 2010.)

MAS Performance

Students who were assessed with the CMT MAS were categorized as being in one of three performance

levels: Basic, Proficient or Goal. Since this is the first administration of the CMT MAS, the data being

released should be considered as a baseline. Table 2 reports CMT MAS performance by showing the

percentage of test takers by grade who scored at the Goal level on this modified test. It also reports the

percentage of students by grade, who scored at or above the Proficient level. This last percentage includes allthe students who scored in both the Goal and Proficient levels.

Race/Ethnicity Subgroup

White students continue to substantially outperform their black and Hispanic peers at all grade levels and

across the four content areas. However, if we examine student gains over last year for Grades 5 and 8, which

test all four content areas, we see dramatic increases between 2009 and 2010 on the part of the black and

Hispanic students over their white classmates, at both the Goal and Proficient levels in all content areas

except writing, which has declined for all groups. Figures 9 through 12 summarize the results.

Looking over the last five years of CMT administration, a steady trend across content areas and performance

levels suggests that, in the majority of cases, black and Hispanic students are posting annual gains that are

greater than their white counterparts. These data would suggest that while there is a positive trend in

performance for all subgroups across the five years of Generation 4, the gap between white students and their

black and Hispanic peers is beginning to narrow.

Figure 9 indicates that between 2006 and 2010, the percentage of Grade 5 white students scoring at the

Proficient level increased by 5.2 points compared to an increase of 13.1 points for black and Hispanic

students. Figure 10 shows a similar trend for Grade 8 students in mathematics. For white students, the

percentage of students scoring at the Proficient level increased by 4.9 points, while the percentage of black

and Hispanic students increased by 15.3 points.

Figure 11 compares the percentage of Grade 5 black/Hispanic students and white students scoring at the

Proficient level in reading from 2006 to 2010. The percentage increase was 2.9 points for white students and

4.3 points for black/Hispanic students. For Grade 8 reading, illustrated in Figure 12, white students

registered a 3.9 point increase compared to an 11.2 point increase for black/Hispanic students.

Sample items from the CMT for each content area and examples of student responses are available in the

CMT Handbooks located on the CSDE Web site (www.ct.gov/sde).

Student Growth

In 2008, the CSDE released a vertical scale for mathematics and reading for the Fourth Generation

CMT. Vertical scale data is available for all students who took the CMT from 2006 to 2010. Thevertical scale will permit districts and schools to measure changes in student performance (growth)

within each content area as they progress from Grade 3 through Grade 8. In addition, districts canuse the vertical scales to set growth targets for students or groups of students (class, school,

districts), and monitor how these targets are met on a yearly basis. The vertical scales could be used

for accountability, instructional planning, program evaluation and other educational purposes. Thevertical scales from 2006 to 2010 are available on the CSDEs Web site.

One of the features of the vertical scales is that the growth in content can be mapped onto the

performance levels (Below Basic, Basic, Proficient, Goal and Advanced) within each content area,

and students growth can be examined in relation to the achievement levels. As an example, Figure

13 below presents growth in mathematics scores for all elementary students by lunch status (red =full price, orange = free/reduced price) from Grade 3 to Grade 5. The background colors representfive achievement levels: from Below Basic at the bottom to Advanced at the top.

The figure compares how both groups have grown from Grade 3 to Grade 5. More interestingly, it

shows how both groups have grown in relation to the achievement levels. Students who receive free

or reduced-price meals, for example, started at the low end of the Proficient level in Grade 3 in2008 and ended at the border between Proficient and Goal in Grade 5 in 2010. Students who were

not eligible for free or reduced-price meals started at the low end of the Goal level in Grade 3 in

2008 and ended at the upper end of the Goal level in Grade 5 in 2010.

National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) Performance

Connecticut participates in biennial administrations of the National Assessment of Educational Progress

(NAEP), the nation's only representative and continuing assessment of what America's students know and

can do in various subject areas. In Connecticut, we use NAEP results to chartstudent achievement over timeand to compare the performance of our states students to their peers across the country. Results from the

NAEP 2009 reading and mathematics assessments place Connecticut among the top 10 performing states in

the nation and show similar performance patterns to those evident in the CMT 2006-2010 results.

In Grade 8 mathematics and reading, Connecticut student performance on NAEP increased when compared

to results from recent years. In the case of Grade 4 students, NAEP 2009 mathematics and reading resultsremained steady overall, but there was improvement for some of our student subgroups. For example, the

average scale score of Grade 4 students identified as economically disadvantaged improved by 8 points on

the NAEP reading scale when comparing 2009 results to those reported in 2007. Over the last few NAEP

administrations, we have begun to see consistent incremental improvements for many of our student

subgroups, and these improvements are reflected in the CMT trend data.

NAEP results provide us with additional evidence to support our findings from this round of CMT reporting.

Overall, Connecticut student performance is improving over time, and results show rising studentachievement among our subgroups. These are critical steps forward in closing our states wide and persistent

achievement gaps.

Guidance for Proper Data Analysis

When it comes to analyzing CMT data, there are proper methods as well as improper methods. Conducting

an improper analysis will lead to conclusions that are not necessarily supported by the data. Therefore, the

Connecticut State Department of Education (CSDE) provides guidance for proper data analysis of the

statewide testing data in the document Data Analysis Guide, which is available through the Student

Assessment Link on the CSDE Web site.
