Measurable Student Standards I. C. § 33-5205(3)(b) The Village Charter School strives to move all students toward highest proficiency levels on all standardized measures. The following educational standards will be met:  80% of kindergarten, 1st and 2nd grade students attending TVCS, who have at least 90% attendance in a given school calendar year, will achieve a score of three (3) on the Spring IRI. By the end of 3rd grade 85% of students will receive a score of three (3) on the Spring IRI.  80% of 3rd through 8th grade students attending TVCS, who have at least 90% attendance in a given school calendar year, will achieve proficient or advanced on the reading, math and language ISAT.  All Students are assessed at least every nine weeks in the core areas of reading, writing, math and spelling using the LLM assessments. The results are measured using the appropriate rubric, and included with the report card. Teachers keep a record of student progress that follows the student through succeeding grades. Each student’s work reflects acquired, integrated, extended, refined, and meaningful utilization of knowledge.  Students show positive growth on annual parental/student/teacher surveys that address attitudes and habits toward, but not limited to, work ethic, honesty, showing initiative, taking and accepting responsibility, and self-confidence. A student baseline is established during the first year of testing and is evaluated each year thereafter. That baseline may include, but is not limited to, results from the State and Federal mandated tests. If any of these goals are not met, TVCS will re-examine its instructional practices and make appropriate improvements.
