ESSA School Quality and Student Success Indicators
South Dakota’s accountability system includes a CCR academic indicator at the high school level, which is weighted at 25 percent of the total score for the School Performance Index (SPI). The indicator includes two dimensions: Assessment of Readiness and Progress Towards a Post High School Credential. Students receive credit for Assessment of Readiness if they either demonstrate English and math readiness or earn a silver certification or higher on the National Career Readiness Certification exam.
The second dimension, Progress Towards a Post High School Credential includes five components. Students must meet one of the following:
- Two units of CTE coursework within one Career Cluster;
- Completion of dual or concurrent credit with a C or better;
- Completion of an AP course with a C or better;
- Completion of an AP exam with a score of 3 or better; and
- Two CTE foundational courses or capstone experiences completed with a C or higher.
Students who achieve both Assessment of Readiness and Progress Towards a Post High School Credential receive full points. Students that achieve one or the other receive 0.5 points.
