The Pennsylvania Department of Education has posted Performance Scores & (Building Score) Profiles for all Pennsylvania Public, Charter, and Cyber Schools.
The report below is one I complied for 87 public High Schools in 8 counties in South Central PA and compared scores to 121 Charter schools and 15 Cyber schools.
The results clearly show that most of our public High Schools in South Central Pennsylvania are outperforming charter schools; and, if you look at the range of scores for these public Vs. Cyber Charter Schools 13 of the 15 Cyber Charter schools are performing significantly worse than these Public High Schools.

Key Findings: A Starting Point
The Key Findings report provides an entry point for reviewing results from your administration of the 2015
Community College Survey of Student Engagement (CCSSE ). The report provides college-specific data in an
easy-to-share format including benchmark comparisons between the college, top-performing colleges, and the
CCSSE cohort. It also highlights aspects of highest and lowest student engagement at the college, as well as results
from five CCSSE special-focus items. Select faculty survey data are also highlighted.
Promising Practices for Student Success
In each annual administration, CCSSE has included special-focus items to allow participating colleges and national
researchers to delve more deeply into areas of student experience and institutional performance of great interest to
the field. In the 2015 administration, some institutions opted to add special-focus items concentrated on community
college students’ participation in a defined collection of promising practices for which there is growing evidence of
effectiveness in improving student outcomes such as course completion and persistence. The results of these
findings are on pages 6-7 of this report.

Benchmarks of Effective Educational Practice
The CCSSE benchmarks are groups of
conceptually related survey items that address key
areas of student engagement. The five benchmarks
denote areas that educational research has shown to
be important to students’ college experiences and
educational outcomes. Therefore, they provide
colleges with a useful starting point for looking at
institutional results and allow colleges to gauge
and monitor their performance in areas that are
central to their work. In addition, participating
colleges have the opportunity to make appropriate
and useful comparisons between their performance
and that of groups of other colleges.
Performing as well as the national average or a
peer-group average may be a reasonable initial
aspiration, but it is important to recognize that
these averages are sometimes unacceptably low.
Aspiring to match and then exceed high-
performance targets is the stronger strategy.
Community colleges can differ dramatically on
such factor ...

Approximately half (51%) of the students scored a Satisfactory Level of Performance or
better (grade C or better). This is up from the 47% in 2013 who scored a Satisfactory Level
of Performance or better. As in 2013, the mean score is in the adequate range at 58.4
which is slightly higher than 2013 when it was 57.8. The Mode Grade of C indicates that
most students (27%) scored between 60-69, a Satisfactory Level of Performance, and this
is one grade higher than last year when the Mode Grade was D. The median score is 60;
therefore, half the number of scores were below and half above 60. This is slightly higher
than last year when it was 58.

When it comes to revenue, customer retention is hugely important to consistent growth and financial planning. The more committed customers you have for the next financial quarter, the easier it is to meet your sales goals. As the old verse goes, “Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver, the other gold.”
“If you can master only one skill in selling, become a master prospector. It will guarantee your future success.”

The "Professional Exemption' requires "Advanced Knowledge" which cannot be attained at the high school level. Requisite knowledge must be customarily acquired by a prolonged course of specialized intellectual study. In some subjects, however, the specialized intellectual study may be acquired by a combination of intellectual study and work experience. The salary test will also increase under "Final rule" anticipated to be published in 2016, going from $455/week to ~$970/week.
The attached checklist can be used to assist in documenting that a position meets the federal "Executive Exemption" criteria.
Although current salary test is $455/week, it is anticipated to increase to $970/week in 2016 after the "Final Rule" is published.
Administrative Exemption
To qualify for the administrative employee exemption, all of the following tests must be met:
• The employee must be compensated on a salary or fee basis (as defined in the regulations) at a rate not
less than $455 per week;
• The employee’s primary duty must be the performance of office or non-manual work directly related to
the management or general business operations of the employer or the employer’s customers; and
• The employee’s primary duty includes the exercise of discretion and independent judgment with respect
to matters of significance.
This checklist should help document and validate the position meets these FLSA requirements

This form can be printed two-sided on Company Stationary. One side of this form provides the employee a copy of the applicable PA law and on the other side is a release form completed by a responsible Fire Company/Emergency service officer and given to the volunteer to present to his/her supervisor upon return to work and includes an explanation of the emergency response occurrence.
You may need to spend some time on this analysis since it somewhat complex, however, if you have never analyzed your UC Rate notice it is time well spent! I am hoping you will be able to follow this algorithm using your company’s PA UC Contribution Rate Notice and work your way through the analysis I’ve outlined below to gain a better understanding of what you are paying to the (PA) Commonwealth each year for UC Taxes, and why you are paying the rate assigned.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

South Central Pennsylvania school performance profiles 2012 13
1. 2013 Academic Performance Scores (APS) for Pennsylvania Public and Charter Schools
A stated goal of the Pennsylvania Department of Education in releasing the 2013 APS is to inform the public of
the academic performance measures of each school, comprehensive career and technical center, cyber charter
and charter school in Pennsylvania.
Additionally, PDE has said the School Performance Profiles should be used as a resource for local education
agencies to communicate and compare performance, analyze performance indicators as related to
achievement, and encourage best practice and to employ the results as an analysis tool to inform goal setting,
planning, and allocating resources to improve student achievement.
As of November 25, 2013 there were 15 Cyber Charter Schools and 174 Brick & Mortar Charter Schools
operating in Pennsylvania. This report shows Academic Performance Scores for 121 Brick & Mortar Charter
Schools and 15 Cyber Charter Schools.
This sample of schools compares Charter School Academic Performance Scores to only Public Schools in
selected South Central PA Counties Counties. The Charter Schools in this study have an average score of 67.8
which is lower than the average York and Adams county HS score of 80.7; lower than Dauphin & Lebanon
County HS average of 72.8; and, lower than the average Berks County HS score of 79.5; the Charter Schools
low point of a significant range is 37.1 for Vs a similar low range calculation of only 57.5; 54.1 and 68.5
respectively for these same public high schools.
In any continuous improvement process the goal should always be to move the mean score higher and tighten
the range.
In order to expedite process improvements it would be logical to drop those schools that fall *significantly below
the average range of Public Schools [see calculations for selected counties 57.5, 54.1 & 68.5] and expedite the
“get-well process” for those schools falling below the **average range [see calculations for selected counties
below 69.1/63.4/74.0].
Additionally the charter schools that are **above the average range above the Charter School (83.2) mean
should be benchmarked for best practices and used as models for the schools.
This is only a sample, but the logic can be applied to the entire population of 500 public and 174 charter and 15
Cyber schools, with one and two standard deviations set as benchmarks for improvement and best practices.
Cyber Charter Schools are not doing very well in comparison to either Charter or Public schools. There are only
6 schools that appear to be tracking well enough to remain:
1. PA VIRTUAL CS [3198 students]
2. 21ST CENTURY CYBER CS [754 students]
3. PENNSYLVANIA LEADERSHIPCS [2324 students]
4. PENNSYLVANIA CYBER CS [10,434 students]
5. PA DISTANCE LEARNING CS [358 students]
6. COMMONWEALTH CONNECTIONS ACAD CS [6667 students]
A larger study may produce a lower mean for all public schools, i.e., lower standard, so that a few more Cyber
Charter Schools would remain; however, the lowest performing Cyber Charter Schools should be
evaluated based on their relative performance to the education a student would receive in a public
school and if that performance is significantly worse, i.e., two standard deviations below the public
school mean the charter should be withdrawn.
* Significantly below is calculated as two standard deviations below the mean (average)
** Below or above the average range is calculated as one standard deviation above or below the mean
(average)
2. 2012 -2013 UNDERSTANDING ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE SCORES
The building level data used to develop the academic performance score for a school which is based upon
indicators that define a high performing school. The following (5) five data elements create the school's
academic performance score
1. Academic Achievement
Indicators Include
1. PSSA/Keystone performance
2. industry standards-based competency assessments
3. grade three reading proficiency, and
4. SAT/ACT college ready benchmarks
2. Closing the Achievement Gap of all students
50%
Indicators from all student scores used to define how well the
school is making progress toward proficiency of all students.
3. Closing the Achievement Gap of high needs students
Indicators from historically underperforming students’ scores
are used to define how well the school is making progress
toward proficiency of high needs students.
4. Academic Growth/PVAAS
40%
Measures the school’s impact on the academic progress of
groups of students from year-to-year
5. Other Academic Indicators
10%
Assesses factors that contribute to student achievement, e.g.,
1. graduation rate
2. promotion rate
3. attendance rate

10. Each data element on the following page(s) has a designated factor value to determine the contribution of that data element's performance
measure. The points earned for each data element are calculated by multiplying the performance measure by the factor value. All earned
points are then added to determine the total number of points earned. The total number of points earned is then divided by the total number
of possible points for the school's calculated score. Additional credit is given for advanced achievement to determine a final score. If a
school does not have a performance measure for a data element, that data element is removed from the calculation thereby not impacting
