Summative Designation
Beginning in 2018, each Illinois school is receiving a Summative Designation, a measure of progress in academic performance and student success. This school has received the Summative Designation stated on the screen. Reasons for the Summative Designation are indicated on the following screen. Multiple measures determine which one of five Summative Designations is appropriate for this school.
Learn MoreEXERCISE CAUTION in comparing the 2022 designation to the 2019 designation. ISBE amended the Illinois accountability system to account for the impact of the pandemic on school performance metrics. Designations may not be comparable depending on each district’s circumstances. View the changes in the What’s New With Accountability fact sheet. ISBE created a one-year-only opportunity for early exit from school improvement status to account for pandemic-related anomalies in school performance data. See the list of schools eligible for early exit here https://www.isbe.net/_layouts/Download.aspx?SourceUrl=/Documents/School-Elig-Early-Exit.xlsx.
All public schools that received a summative designation have that designation listed. If an entity does not have a summative designation listed, it is either an entity that does not receive a summative designation, or the school has insufficient size or data to meet the n-size rules for summative designation calculations. The suppression rule for summative designation calculations is a count of at least 20 students per indicator. This suppression rule differs from the reporting suppression rule because they serve different purposes.
Reasons for the Summative Designation are indicated on the following screen. Multiple measures determine which one of five Summative Designations is appropriate for each school.
Exemplary – Schools performing in the top 10 percent of schools statewide with no underperforming student groups.
Commendable – A school that has no underperforming student groups, a graduation rate greater than 67 percent, and whose performance is not in the top 10 percent of schools statewide.
Targeted – A school in which one or more student groups is performing at or below the level of the “all students” group in the lowest performing 5 percent of schools.
Comprehensive – A school that is in the lowest-performing 5 percent of schools in Illinois and any high school with a graduation rate of 67 percent or less.
Student groups used in the calculations include major racial and ethnic identities, students with Individual Education Plans (special education), English language learners, and students from low-income families. In order to protect students’ privacy, a group must include at least 10 students in order to be counted in the calculation of Summative Designations.
