ADP Network Model Louisiana

• Louisiana has proposed to expand its state
  high school accountability system in order to
  reward schools for holding on to struggling
  students, as well as for ensuring that all
  students are reaching high levels of academic
  performance.

ADP Network Model Louisiana

• In Louisiana, the proposed high school
  ratings would be determined by an index. Schools
  would get additional points for achieving various
  goals for example, a school that keeps a
  low-performing student in school gets a higher
  score than a school that lets that student drop
  out.
• Additionally, high schools receive points for
  getting students across the finish line with a
  high school diploma plus endorsements that
  signify readiness for college and careers.
