Slide 7
ESEA Flexibility WHY DID WASHINGTON STATE APPLY? This is the
right decision for Washington State. Over 1176 schools and 113
districts across our state were identified as in improvement based
on 2010-11 state assessments. And, by 2014, nearly every school and
district would be identified as in improvement. So we know our
current AYP system doesnt work. We need a new way to measure
progress and provide resources to support our work. This request
gives us the opportunity to set new annual learning targets and
frees up to $58 million across our state to address the needs of
struggling students and schools. It provides the flexibility
Washington needs to ensure ALL students graduate with college- and
career-ready skills. Randy Dorn Superintendent of Public
Instruction 7
Slide 8
ESEA Flexibility WHAT DOES ESEA FLEXIBILITY REQUIRE FROM
STATES? PRINCIPLES 1-3 1. Ensure college- and career-ready
expectations for all students (Common Core State Standards [CCSS]
and Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium [SBAC] in Washington) 2.
Implement state-developed system of differentiated recognition,
accountability, and support 3. Support effective instruction and
leadership (Teacher and Principal Evaluation Project [TPEP] in
Washington) 4. Reduce duplication and unnecessary burden on school
districts by the State 8
Slide 9
ESEA Flexibility WHAT DOES ESEA FLEXIBILITY PROVIDE FOR STATES?
Highlights: 1.Flexibility to determine new ambitious and achievable
annual targets for reading, mathematics, and graduation rates.
2.Elimination of AYP determinations and associated sanctions for
schools in improvement, including 20% set- aside of Title I, Part A
funds for Public School Choice and Supplemental Education Services
and 10% set-aside for professional development for schools.
3.Elimination of associated sanctions for districts in improvement
and the 10% set-aside for professional development for districts.

ESEA Flexibility STATES MUST: Set ambitious, but achievable,
Annual Measurable Objectives (AMOs) Identify: Reward schools:
Provide incentives and recognition for high- progress and highest
performing Title I schools Priority schools: Identify
lowest-performing schools and implement interventions aligned with
the turnaround principles Focus schools: Identify and implement
meaningful interventions (i.e., turnaround principles) in schools
with the lowest performing subgroups Emerging schools: Identify
other low-performing Title I schools and provide incentives and
support Build state, district, and school capacity 18

Priority, Focus, and Emerging schools Washington States New
Accountability System Used to identify Reward, Priority, Focus, and
Emerging schools for Title I and non- Title I schools School
Improvement Uses AYP calculations to identify schools and districts
in a step of improvement (Title I) Uses PLA Methodology based on
AYP calculations to generate list of Persistently Lowest Achieving
Schools (PLAs) SBE/OSPI Achievement Index Used to identify Award
Schools AYP Determinations Sanctions for schools and districts in
improvement Set-asides required for Public School Choice and
Supplemental Education Services Up to 2011-12 2012-13 and 2013-14
2014-15 and beyond AMO Calculations Annual targets intended to
close proficiency gaps by half by 2017; uses 2011 as baseline and
adds equal annual increments (1/6 of proficiency gap) to get to
2017 target; each subgroup, school, district, and state have unique
annual targets. Calculations reported on Report Card No AYP
sanctions based on identification of schools and districts in
improvement Requires districts to set aside up to 20% for Priority,

Our guiding beliefs and approach for CCSS Implementation in WA
2012-13 CCSS Systems Webinar.Part 1.9/12/1226 2-Prongs: 1. The
What: Content Shifts (for students and educators) Belief that past
standards implementation efforts have provided a strong foundation
on which to build for CCSS; HOWEVER there are shifts that need to
be attended to in the content. 2. The How: System Remodeling Belief
that successful CCSS implementation will not take place top down or
bottom up it must be both, and Belief that districts across the
state have the conditions and commitment present to engage wholly
in this work. Professional learning systems are critical
Slide 27
2012-13 CCSS Systems Webinar.Part 1.9/12/12 27 1. What do all
students need to know and be able to do as a result of the CCSS? 2.
What do the adults in the system need to know and be able to do to
support all students? 3. How do we design a professional learning
system to support them? Webinar Handout 1

The WHAT: The Shifts within the CCSS 2012-13 CCSS Systems
Webinar.Part 1.9/12/12 28
Slide 29
Grecian Urn analogy In the Common Core State Standards,
individual statements of what students are expected to understand
and be able to do are embedded within domain headings and cluster
headings designed to convey the structure of the subject. The
Standards refers to all elements of the designthe wording of domain
headings, cluster headings, and individual statements; the text of
the grade level introductions and high school category
descriptions; the placement of the standards for mathematical
practice at each grade level. The pieces are designed to fit
together, and the standards document fits them together, presenting
a coherent whole where the connections within grades and the flows
of ideas across grades are as visible as the story depicted on the
urn. Fragmenting the Standards into individual standards, or
individual bits of standards, erases all these relationships and
produces a sum of parts that is decidedly less than the whole.
Arranging the Standards into new categories also breaks their
structure. It constitutes a remixing of the Standards. There is
meaning in the cluster headings and domain names that is not
contained in the numbered statements beneath them. Remove or reword
those headings and you have changed the meaning of the Standards;
you now have different Standards; you have not adopted the Common
Core. The Structure is the Standards

Shifts in ELA 1.Building knowledge through content-rich
nonfiction and informational texts in addition to literature
2.Reading and writing grounded in evidence from the text 3.Regular
practice with complex text and its academic vocabulary These apply
to content area (social studies, science, and technical subject)
teachers as well as to English teachers. Shifts in Mathematics
1.Focus: 2-3 topics focused on deeply in each grade 2.Coherence:
Concepts logically connected from one grade to the next and linked
to other major topics within the grade 3.Rigor: Fluency with
arithmetic, application of knowledge to real world situations, and
deep understanding of mathematical concepts Common Core ELA and
Math Shifts 2012-13 CCSS Systems Webinar.Part 1.9/12/12 30

Building Educator Capacity is KEY 2012-13 CCSS Systems
Webinar.Part 1.9/12/1231 Current teachers mush receive extensive
professional development on the Common Core standards, curricular
materials, and strategies on teaching that now require students to
delve deeper and develop critical thinking and analytical skills
that previous standards did not adequately address ~ National

KY Professional Learning Taskforce Report, 2012 2012-13 CCSS
Systems Webinar.Part 1.9/12/1234 Professional learning is a
comprehensive, sustained, and intensive approach to increase
student achievement that strengthens and improves educators
effectiveness in meeting individual, team, school, district, and
state goals. Professional learning is not an isolated event or a
set of events; rather it is ongoing, relevant, job-embedded
learning for educators at all stages of career development.
Professional learning supports educators in meeting and exceeding
standards of performance, implementing new initiatives, and
refining professional practice to increase student
achievement.

A Resource for Considering Professional Learning Systems
(webinar Handout 2) 2012-13 CCSS Systems Webinar.Part 1.9/12/1235
Sample questions to inform decision making around professional
learning (pp. 8- 9): How does our current professional learning
system address equity for student and educator learning through
resource allocation, design of professional learning, and high
expectations and support for implementation of learning? How does
our emerging educator effectiveness system integrate professional
learning supports to strengthen individual teachers at various
career stages and with differentiated needs and to support school
and district goals and program implementation?
