Notice of Petition to Adopt: ASPIRE Policy & Technical Guide

The District of Columbia Public Charter School Board (DC PCSB) announces an opportunity for the public to submit comments on proposed revisions to the ASPIRE Policy & Technical Guide, the authoritative reference for ASPIRE components and business rules.  As part of its commitment to ensuring the ASPIRE System is a reliable and transparent measure of school performance, the ASPIRE Policy & Technical Guide will generally be updated annually to reflect necessary refinements and clarifications that have surfaced, particularly during the academic production cycle. The proposed revisions cover three areas: minor business rules clarifications, floors and targets, and expanding approved certifications and assessments. Most of these updates are driven by feedback directly from schools.

Note: The original version of the document below listed the vote as taking place on June 28, but that information has been updated.
