RHODE ISLAND Summary evaluation. The Rhode Island assessment program needs some significant improvements, notably reducing or eliminating the NRT, but it is developing in a positive direction. The use of performance assessments in its new exams is positive. Fairness efforts are clearly positive, professional development and community education have positive features but need expansion, while evaluation needs much improvement. Standard 1: Assessment supports important student learning. Rhode Island has developed curriculum frameworks in language arts, math, science and health. Public involvement in their design included a development committee and focus groups; information sessions were held after the frameworks were developed. The Rhode Island state assessment program includes an NRT, the MAT/7, for grades 4, 8 and 10, using only the subtests in reading comprehension and mathematics concepts and problem-solving. Criterion-referenced exams are aligned with the curriculum frameworks. They include: a writing assessment for grades 4, 8 and 10; a math performance assessment in grades 4 (SEA developed), 8 and 10 (New Standards Reference Exam); and a health performance assessment in grades 4 and 8. All students are assessed and all see the same items. For writing, students have 45 minutes over two days to respond to an SEA prompt. Results of assessments are used for general accountability, student diagnosis or placement, curriculum improvement, program evaluation, and school performance reporting. There are no high-stakes consequences from the results of assessments for either schools or students, though school accountability procedures may expand. The state plans to add performance assessments in reading and science. Work is underway on a "Certificate of Initial Mastery" which students would earn through a variety of assessments.

OVERVIEW - THE PROGRAM EVIDENCE OF ACCOMPLISHMENT CONTACT INFO OVERVIEW The Westerly School System has district wide programming that integrated and maintains students within community schools by providing a variety of supportive services. To accomplish this goal, the entire program focuses on interagency collaboration and classroom teaching practices. For example, staff and community are provided with a basic understanding of district philosophy to ensure common beliefs among staff, families, and the community. Students and teachers receive professional support from the staff psychologists, social workers, planning centers and links with community agencies. These partnerships are formed with teachers, administrators and families and all work collaboratively to cultivate student performance. This innovative programming began few years ago with the onset of inclusive practices. The incorporation of team teaching helped improve grades, achievement, and attendance of students with emotional and behavioral problems while decreasing disciplinary referrals. MISSION Our mission is to gradually create programs to help all kids come to school ready to learn in an atmosphere which promotes respect and dignity. This would lead to more comprehensive programs and improved educational results, a high priority being students with social, emotional, and behavioral needs. The district has achieved long term planning goals which have focused upon programming at a different level each year, providing technical assistance, resources, and improved communication mechanisms among families, teachers, administrators, and the community.
