Latest Evidence of Learning Shows Gains in Student Performance

At its March 28 business meeting, the Board of Education heard a presentation on the mid-year Evidence of Learning (EOL) data focused on grade-level proficiency using multiple measures to determine the success of students, schools and the district overall. The EOL framework uses measures, including classroom grades, data from curriculum-aligned assessments, and state and national assessments.

EOL mid-year data allows MCPS to examine how successfully students transition from one grade level to the next. The data serves as a checkpoint for how students in kindergarten, grades 3, 6 and 9, have transitioned from pre-kindergarten, grades 2, 5 and 8. They also provide an opportunity to see which students are meeting standards and to determine what supports are needed to provide for their continued success.
