Parents and others can view the full report card online – complete with individual scores on the accountability indicators – for each school district in the state, and for each individual school (with a few exceptions) within districts. The five indicators are: (1) academic achievement, based on student performance on the 2017 ACT Aspire test (20 percent of overall report card grade) (2) academic growth, based on student improvement on reading and math scores on the ACT test from one year to the next (30 percent of overall grade) (3) graduation rate (30 percent of overall grade) (4) college and career readiness, based on percentage of students earning a benchmark score on any one of seven different college and career readiness indicators (10 percent of overall grade) and chronic absenteeism, based on the number of students who have missed at least 15 full days of school during the school year (10 percent of the overall grade). The overall letter grade is made up of five components, called “accountability indicators,” calculated by a complex formula to yield the final numerical grade, which is then translated to the familiar letter grade used on student report cards. Individual school scores in both Blount County systems are given in the chart at right.
