Kingsman Academy PCS

DC PCSB developed the Alternative Accountability Framework (AAF) for schools that provide programs to serve highly at-risk students, recognizing that an alternative framework is more appropriate to measure schools serving a considerably different population from that of most schools. This school will not receive a score or tier in 2017–18. When a school is initially designated to be eligible for the AAF, the school, in consultation with DC PCSB staff, designs a set of measures aligned to specific categories of quality, either traditional and/or nontraditional and unique to the school’s program. These measures are subject to DC PCSB approval, are annually measured, and are publicly reported.

The School Quality Report also assesses the school environment using attendance, re-enrollment, retention or discipline rates. These indicators are predictors of future student achievement.
