National Post School Outcome Data Community of Practice -- We do not have a version that has a front page with no text. You could delete the entire graphic on the front page and replace with a new graphic and new text.

The text of the flyer uses the future as its guideline, I would like to change that so it uses the present day as its guideline. However, the text on the front page of the student flyer is grouped with the graphic and I am not able to edit the text for this slightly different use. Would you be able to either send me a version that has no text on the front page? Thanks!

Thank you for being a part of our Community of Practice Notes are not verbatim but rather an attempt to capture the essence of what is shared. Please alert us if there are glaring errors! Announcements Reminders: Secondary Transition State Planning Institute is on May 17-20 in Charlotte, NC. Email the staffs from NPSO, NDPC-SD, or NSTTAC if you need information about the conference. If you are a presenter with or for NPSO, we will contact you soon to discuss the presentation and provide additional information. There will be two pre-institute webinars outlining the structure of the Institute and data state teams needs. The dates for the webinar are April 8 13, 2011 at noon Pacific Time. Topic: SLDS (Statewide Longitudinal Data Systems) FAQ and Indicator 14 Data Dictionary Overview of what an SLDS is: SLDS is a data system that links data across agencies or data within agencies such as linking special and general Education data or k-12 data with post-secondary data. Many states have been given federal grants to establish SLDS systems. The goal of this grant program is to link Early Childhood, K-12, postsecondary, and labor data. Information about the IES SLDS program can be found at http://nces.ed.gov/programs/slds/ http://nces.ed.gov/programs/slds/ . Specific information about your state including a copy of its SLDS grant application (if is currently has a grant) can be found at http://nces.ed.gov/programs/slds/stateinfo.asp http://nces.ed.gov/programs/slds/stateinfo.asp Who knows if they currently have SLDS grant in their state? NY, MS, UT, NC have SLDS grants. NC looking at how Indicator data can be collected using a SLDS. The NPSO¹s role related to SLDS 1. Assist states in making sure post-school outcomes data is tied back to their states data system (SLDS) 2. Assist states who want to explore using already collected extant data to report Indicator 14 Question for states- 1. What currently happens to your student level PSO data after it is collected? a. If you use a contractor what data do you get from the contractor? For example b. Where are student level data stored? c.What format are these data in? d. Are your raw I-14 survey data incorporated into your state data system? e. Other than for reporting the SPP/APR, how are these data used? If so, what are they used for? NC receives a statewide report and local report; used the DUT PPT to report data. NC does not receive student level data and does not use social security numbers. UT contracts with WI, who collects the data via telephone survey; raw data stored in WI. UT receives report visible publically on website and privately with username and password for LEA. Do not receive student level data, but state has unique identify and could possibly link K-12 to higher ed. LEAs able to access their data and engagement rates (A, B, C) to the LEAs and whether the LEA met their target. State has a k-16 alliance; does not use social security numbers. Adult Ed. using the same unique identifier CA has had a statewide system for approximately 25 years. Currently has 70 or 80 variables and creates 4 tables that can be accessed by CDE, local education area, and the district. CDE creates district reports for those who submitted data. UCLA creates reports across years. MS has the district collect data. Surveys are pre-populated at state level and uses unique identifier to link student level data (exit data) and survey. Want to be able to link to other data already in the system, e.g., assessment data. LEAs have access to information at their level; reports are not generated at the SEA level. WA conducts a census, provides reports at student level to the school, district, and state; doesn¹t use SSN, uses unique identifier. Goal: link across data in K-12 system. KY has LEAs collect data and send to contractors for analysis; does not use SSN. Data analyzed at state, district, and regional level. State and regional levels received aggregate data; LEAs receive only their district level. Raw data are not available, looking to the possibility of having access to raw data in the future. NY contractor doesn¹t receive unique identifiers. Districts provided reported using data displays similar to NPSO Data Display Templates; expanding the district report to include tabular report for each question on the survey. Contractor is working with the state to update

During this call we will overview the process for operationally defining the predictors of post-school success identified by Test et al., 2009 and describe a new tool developed by NPSO and NSTTAC staff to assist states and local districts the process of examining programs to determine if they meet the established criteria for the predictors. The new tool is titled Predictor Self-Assessment and can be located in advance by clicking the following link: http://psocenter.org/content_page_assets/content_page_3/Predictor_Self-Assessment.final.pdf.
