assessments or below proficient on state third grade exam (C must
equal a value not lower than the statewide average for this
measure).
Also reported but not graded are: percentage of students in Advanced
Placement (AP) classes and percentage of those students receiving a
score of 3 or high on AP exams; percentage of students earning at least
3 college credits through advanced standing programs or through
career-technical dual enrollment or articulated credit; percentage of
students taking a college entrance examination and percentage of those
students determined to be remediation-free; percentage of students
earning industry credential; percentage of students in international
baccalaureate (IB) and percentage of those students receiving a score
of 4 or better on IB examinations; percentage of students earning an
honors diploma; and results of college and career-ready assessments.
There will be no overall letter grade assigned for the 2014-2015 school
year.
By July 1, 2015, the state board must develop a measure of student
academic progress for high school students using only data from
assessments in English language arts and mathematics. This measure
is to be included on the 2014-2015 report card – but without an assigned
letter grade. However, a letter grade will be assigned for the 2015-2016
report card and will be included in calculating the overall letter grade for
the building or district.
The letter grades are to be assigned as follows:
A for a district or school making excellent progress;
B for a district or school making above average progress;
C for a district or school making average progress;
D for a district or school making below average progress;
F for a district or school failing to meet minimum progress.
For ”high mobility” schools and districts, there is an additional graded
value-added progress dimension determined using the value-added
data from the most recent school year available and assessment scores
for only those students to whom the district/building administered
assessments for each of the two most recent consecutive school years.
The additional value-added progress dimension grade for a high mobility
school or district is exempted from the computation of the overall letter
grade. (See MOBILITY SCHOOL DISTRICTS, HIGH above.)

If school district personnel become aware of a breach of security within
its computer system that could lead to identity theft, it has a duty to notify

PERSONAL LEAVE
Boards of education are required to adopt rules “entitling” personal leave
for non-teaching employees. While ORC 3319.142 does not specifically
mention licensed employees, it has generally been interpreted that ORC
124.39 extends this benefit to those with licenses.
